Family Pics

We had our family pictures taken again by Heath Roberts... he did an excellent job once again. I was really excited when I found out that we would get Cheyenne for the pics. We decided to dress in black with blue jeans. It all went so well, all the kids cooperated like they should and did a great job listening to Heath and Claire. I would totally recommend him to anyone. I just cannot believe the change in each one of the kids... it amazes me how much a year changes them. Cheyenne is growing into quite the young lady, Chance is a handsome young man and Kelcee is growing up so fast. Peyton is well she is 3 and I still love her!

Chance at Karate

Last night I took Chance to karate class and had the opportunity to sit and watch as it was Parents week. While the class was learning a new set of moves, the first move was made and Chance was the only one who Kiahed (meaning to let out a loud yell as you hit and object). Anyway out of a class of 35 Chance was the only one who did as he was supposed to do. Master turned and was like what the heck... Chance was the only one who Kiahed. He told the rest of the class to drop and give him 20 pushups. Chance stood at attention waiting for he class to be done. Way to go Chance, I was a very proud mom as I sat there watching. Chance is now a second level Blue belt and will soon be testing for his red belt. Keep up the good work, I love ya!

And the Crying began

So yesterday was Wednesday and we had Kelcee from 5:30 to 8:30. We always enjoy every minute and second we have with Kelcee... Well so does Peyton. Peyton totally loves her sister more than anything, she misses her terribly when she isn't with us. So last night when we were dropping her off, Peyton begins to cry saying... "I want my sister"! and Cries so more.... she didn't stop crying till we were 1/2 home and even then she was still really sad. She said that she wanted Kelcee to stay with us. We have tired to explain to her why but how do you explain to a 3 year old that her sister lives in another house with a different set of parents. The cutest thing is that every night Peyton says her prayers she always blesses Kelcee and Chey. She truly loves her siblings and would spend every minute with them if she could. We all miss Kelcee and Chey when they aren't with us. And Yes I even shed a few tears last night too... I truly feel blessed to have such great kids and a husband to go with them.
