Taylor's party!

Taylor's big #6! We had karaoke, dancing, crafts(making a guitar), and cupcakes! All at the Public Library!! Aren't I wierd?

Everyone dressed like a rock star. We even hair sprayed their hair blue, pink, green, purple and glitterfied them!

Dad was the awsome music and light provider for the party. It was amazing! And you couldn't hear it in the Library next door!

Rex got the cake. Notice the colors. Very Rexish.



Actually they were cupcakes. Very easy to eat and clean up!

Taylor made out like a bandit. We don't need parties for the next two years!! But everyone had fun. I had a blast doing the chicken dance!

I hope Taylor felt like a rockstar. I've heard from the parents that this was a party the kids will never forget!

ROCK ON!!

Taylor's first Soccer game

Taylor and the Tracyton Ladybugs played their first game today. They don't keep score but if you ask Taylor, her team won.

It was 90 degrees outside. Sweltering for us Washingtonians!

Now Mikey wants to be a soccer player. Taylor taught Mikey how to yell, "Go Taylor!" and "Taylor you rock!" when she was on the field. No self esteem issues with that one!

It's a girl!!!

Yep. Definatley a girl!

Olympia

Look at the mighty girls infront of the Temple of Justice! Their like so powerful!

On the Capital Steps. Charly's practicing for Vogue.

Aren't my photgraphic skills mind boggling! This is the 10 ton Chandalier that a VW bug could fit inside of.

It's considered lucky to rub President Washington's nose. Oh yes....I feel it.....

We went to Olympia with My parents and Sabrina & Lizzy. The girls have never seen the Capitol before.

I had a meeting with the Department of Early Learning so we didn't get to stay very long. But we did take the tour with a guide I swear was gay.

Rex got a Com!

Rex got a Navy And Marine Corps Commendation Medal for all the long hours and hard work he did at his last command. Yep, he's transfering! Now instead of seeing him only late a night, I never get to see him! Wahoo

The acting Captain gave him the award. It's pretty rare, I hear, that a 1st class recieves such a medal but Rex really deserves it!

They made Rex give a speech. It kinda went along the lines of, "I love the guys I work with but the job stinks so I'm happy to be leaving."

And he thanked the Captain for signing the document.

Rex with his Division Officer. This is the man who wrote Rex's medal. He doesn't even have a Com from the Navy. A real nice guy.

They had a bouncy house for the kids. The girls LOVED it!

Watch out for Taylor lips! Their a killer.....

School!

Taylor's first time on a bus by herself! My neighbors were in tears over their children. I was like, "C-ya!"

The three musketeers. There are 4 people from our ward in Taylors class. She already has a posse!

Taylor started kindergarten today! Yesterday we had orientation. It was cute. The Principal went on a gingerbread man hunt with the kids around the school. They had pictures of gingerbread men at places like the office, library, gym, etc. then they got to eat a gingerbread man. But today she is gone for a whole 2.5 hours! Man, half day kindergarten's a waste of time. Mikey starts preschool soon. It's 4 hours longs. So I have Taylor in the mornings, then I drop her off to pick up Mikey and have her till the other two come home. My four hours of freedom last year is over. Oh well. Kids are fun too right? ;)

Daddy's new toys

The girls bought daddy light sabers for his b-day. Unfortunatly they don't work with any of our Wii games but their fun to play with! And light up, how cool is that?

Lizzy loved them.
