More fun with the Mandells at Rileys

I wanted to share some more photos that we had taken at Rileys last Saturday.  One of my favorites is this black and white one of our family.  It was such a nice time… a little rough getting all 5 kids to cooperate..  but good times either way.

Can anyone tell which horse pictures Sam took??? :)

Family Photos

Wow! I haven’t blogged in awhile..    No news is good news.. well that’s what I think anyways…

Today, we met Mitzi at Rileys farm for our end of the year family photos. Although the fires almost prevented Mitzi and her family from coming.. they ventured onto the unknown, taking alternate routes, until they reached us. :)

We had a great time! Thanks guys, for not letting these fires stop you from coming. We look forward to seeing you soon! You captured some great shots of our family!  Maybe next time, we’ll do a water theme, is it possible that we could talk Rob into taking the kayaks out?? :)

Big Hugz!

Awww… our little girl goes to preschool!

Yup, that’s right! Jacquelyn started preschool this week! She is now attending the Goddard School.

For around six months Jacquelyn has been talking about going to school.  In September we decided to take a tour of the school! For the last month that is all Jacquelyn has been talking about!  Last Friday we enrolled her and she started on Monday!

So far she loves it!  I knew that she wouldn’t be scared, because this is basically her choice… but I was curious to see how it went.  On Monday, Sam and I took her to school, walked her to her class.. showed her where her cuby is.. and that’s all it took. We bascially had to  insist that she waved goodbye to us.. she barely noticed that we left.

Here are some photos from her first day! taken with the point-n-shoot.

It’s Here….

Look what came in the mail, the American Girl catalog!   Jacquelyn just loves her Bitty Baby, she was soo excited to see all the accessories and outfits that can come with it!   I was surprised to see how much London actually loves the baby too.. she just watches Jacquelyn play with it and as soon as Jacquelyn puts it down she is all over it!

Here are some photos of the girls.. gawking over the catalog! Look at Jacquelyn’s big eyes and shes just starring at me with the Pretzel bag! She just can’t figure out why she can’t have them for breakfast, but “WHHY” she says!  I knew the “whhhhhy” stage would come, but I really thought I had a couple of years until it happened!

Love the photo of her eating her oatmeal.. I finally figured out how to get her to eat it, I mix blueberries, butter, sugar and soy-milk!  So, if I skipped the butter and sugar.. it might actually be considered healthy breakfast again! =)

One of those days…

Yup, that was today.  Jacquelyn missed her nap, I couldn’t get her to take one for hours!    So, she was little less enthused in her swim class today.. but she still tried her hardest.

This picture of Sam and the girls was taken at Twinks this passed weekend.

I took these photos of the girls this morning. They love to lay on the ground together. Also got some photos of Jacquelyn doing one of her morning chores..  feeding Misty. She’s been doing this for around two weeks now and she has done awesome with it!

London’s little voice

London has such a sweet little voice… I thought I would share it.. Listen close…
But like all good things… there’s another side… Have you ever heard her SCREECH??? It’s very loud and unforgettable.. I’ll spare you that for another day! :)
