White Caps Game

 Carter's day with Aunt Tricia was going to a White Caps game. He loved it but was a little disappointed that the White Caps lost. This pic makes it look like they went in early spring or fall, but it was actually August, just a very chilly night!

 The White Caps mascot is a pig, does anyone else think that's a little odd?

A view of the field and the losing White Caps team.

Just for you Sissy!!!!!!

Just for you Sissy I updated the blog. I have more to post but not enough time, so check back soon!

When it Quiet..........

When it's quiet in our house, everyone know s it's time to find Hannah and see what she's up to, which is usually no good. Lately though because she refuses to take naps and we have been doing a lot of swimming and other physical activities this is how we find her

She was sent up to her room after swimming to get changed, but the poor thing only had enough energy to open the wardrobe doors, and that apparently was too much!

This I just simply don't know other than I went to go a fold the laundry and this is what I found to fold, not the easiest of items to fold and put away!

Notice that she always has enough energy left to get her blankie!

Carter's Baptism

 Our favorite boy, turned 8 this year, and that means it't time to be baptized. Carter is normally very easy going and could care less about any details, but for his baptism he was very specific. He wanted his clothes to be exactly like Dad's, includng a tie. Thankfully the distribution store didn't have a back order, because the baptismal closet at church was not at all helpful. It seems that a lot of the child size clothing has gone missing.

 Love these 2 handsome men, can't wat to see John having to look up at his son! For soome reason I just get the biggest laugh at that thought.

 Carter with Aunt Tricia. Carter also chose his clothes for after being baptised, can we say it's just a little morbid choosing to wear black after being baptized.

The entire family that attended. Grandma and Grandpa Gibson, Aunt Tricia, Great Grandma Kreighbaum, and of course all of us!

The girls were just as excited as Carter. It took four times to get a picture that looked like Hannah was looking forward, and she still isn't even looking at the camera here, but at least she was sitting. It's very hard for her to be still lately.

My Sister Tricia insisted that we take a family picture. I hate taking pictures and now you can definitely see why, I'm enormous, I actually thought this shirt looked good, but I was way wrong! The good thing though this picture really got me motivated to start back at the gym again!

Katy Perry Concert

  The cool thing about having an Aunt Tricia, is she is single and has no kids of her own, so she loves to spoil her nieces and nephew. Aunt Tricia makes it a point to take the kids each on their own to do something special with her. For Ashleigh's turn, Tricia took her to a Katy Perry concert. Of course Tricia told her about it months in advance (which I could kill her for), and we heard about every day from Ashleigh until she finally went.

Here is Ashleigh with Brady outside the concert and of course they just had to get a picture next to the Katy Perry poster, can you see how excited Ashleigh is?

Inside the stadium, I thought their jaws were dropped because they were in so much awe, but later found out they were singing along to one of the songs.

Ashleigh and Aunt Tricia at the concert

This is Mike and his daughter Brady. He was Tricia's boyfriend, but is now an ex. Actually they were no longer dating when they went to the concert but they are still friends and had already made the plans so they decided to still go together.

Here the girls are modeling the balloon creations (well Ashleigh is) they got a dinner. As you can see there were smiles all night long, which means they had a great time.

Later I heard my cousin found out that I let Ashleigh go to see Katy Perry, and she wanted to know what was I thinking. So just for the record I really don't think that katy Perry is that bad, there are a lot worse things out there!
