The most Magical Christmas

This was one of the most magical Christmas mornings I remember. Santa brought our family a sweet little puppy. The kids came down stairs and the dog ran right to them. Shaylee said come hear TWIX and he went to her, the name has stuck. Braden is the one who asked Santa for a puppy it was the sweetest thing. He would not tell me what he wanted, he waited till he could sit on Santa's lap and then with a grin on his face he said Santa I would really like a puppy. The big man came through. We think our Puppy is so cute and he has such a good personality he seams to fit in the family just fine.

Connor Kindergarten Enhancement Class

His Kindergarten Class

Connor 6th Birthday

Connor is the bravest 6 year old I know. He had a Scales and Tells birthday party and he loved every minute. He was born on Halloween and loves reptiles which is kind of fitting. It was a great party. I had to over come my fears when he said mom you should hold a snake.

This is Connor with 4 snakes wrapped around him he was so happy. And loved it when the yellow snake tried to lick his face.

Ski Diving

I have wanted to sky Dive since I was 16. So while we were on vacation Matt and I got the chance to fulfill one of my dreams. We sky Dived in Hawaii it was such a rush. We are all strapped in and ready to Load the plane.We took of and the Plane circled and went up and up and up. Then really fast they opened the door and said this is going to be a good jump lets go and we jumped. The wind was like nothing I have ever felt before it was so surreal and I t was awesome i touched the clouds as I fell through them.The Kids waited for us with our friends right by the landing strip.Just after falling through the clouds we puled the chute and the kids spotted us. As I floated down I saw a turtle on the beach and the beautiful Island below.This is Matt coming in for his landing.And this is me I think we both really happy to be on the ground safely. I don't think our kids have ever been this excited to see us.

I am so glad that I got the chance to do this. It was truly a dream come true.
