Ethan's Christmas Video

So, here it is.... a video of Ethan singing two songs... The first is "Sing a song for Hanakuh!" Horray... My child thinks that people who killed Jesus sing pretty songs.... then, "Must be Santa!"

He did a great job and We are super proud of him! Way to go Reethan!

It's been a while

I'm trying to hard to catch up with my life and it's just been one thing after another lately! I can't believe it's been an entire month without writing!

I guess I have to realize that I just moved, had family here for a week, Ethan was out of school, I have 4 vacant apartments to rent and some majorly mental tenants to deal with, the economy is hurting and 4 of my tenants just lost their jobs and can't pay the rent, I am dealing with the most deliberately stupid person I have ever met in my life and can't seem to get away from her, send out Christmas gifts, visit the sick and the poor, travel to South America for Green Peace, Meet the pope, Make a Sarah Palin parody video, make a puppet show, go to fight against the liberals of the nation and have a "Just love everyone please" meeting with California govener Arnold Swartinager and I have to make a wall to separate Ethan's room from the living room.

Hmmmm, can't think of anything else right now, but in the mean time of all of this we have had some fun and took some time to have family togetherness because that is #1 soooo we had some new adventures at Disneyland last week. we went on a canoe ride around the lake and they gave Ethan a little tiny paddle which was really cute, half way through the fun he got tired and it fell out of his hands into the lake... it was kinda funny but he was glad that he didn't have to row anymore! We all bought a new hat... Derick got a pirate hat, Ethan got a Tweedledee and Tweedlededum hat, and I'm goofy... of course!

During Thanksgiving we had family come to visit and about 75% of the time things went well. Ava spilt an entire half gallon of milk on top of Ethan and the carpet in Janice and Delwins timeshare and after a couple of days it started to smell like a rotten garbage can so they decided to leave early! Erin got upset at disneyland and cried, then I got upset at Disneyland and cried.... lets just say it was a very very very long day especially with the kids and trying to manuvere the family around disneyland for the day!





We played games and me and Mikey got in a fight.. then Crystal got involved and Mikey didn't like that so he yelled at her.... we all had to be nice and tell each other sorry later. We all love each other now! (It's so competitive in this family! whew)



They boys went to a car show, the girls went out to eat, saw Twillight and then Bolt all in one day! I know I'm making it sound like a crazy time but we all had a really great time seeing each other and just hanging out!

Here are some pictures of the craziness of the last little while! I will post some pics of our new place when it's ready to look at!

Bless Us One And All

I love you guys! This should be our family song... he he he
