Zackary is 7!!

We had cake and ice cream on his actually birthday and gave him his gifts from us. He didnt want to wait until his party. He got a nintendo ds, jordans, and games for his ds. We had his party the following weekend. He wanted a sports theme so we cleared out the playroom and had his party out there. They decorated backpacks, made a sun visor, decorated a water bottle holder, and made a medal. He had a lot of fun. I got bored waiting for all the pictures to upload but here are a few from Zackary's party.

Tea Party anyone??

Julianna's newest thing is having tea parties. Carter and her will spend hours out of the day playing with the teaset she got for christmas. She is totally different from the boys. I guess there is just something naturally in girls....or maybe that I have shoved anything and everything that was pink at her....LOL!! :)

Raleigh

We went to North Carolina for the week. Mark, his girlfriend Christina, Keith, Tiffany, and Owen were all able to be there. It was probably our last time for all of us to be together for awhile. It will be a lot harder once we are out in California. Robbie and I were able to go out to dinner by ourselves the first part of the week while mom and dad watched the kids. I can't remember the last time we went out by ourselves. We also were able to do a date night at the Cheesecake Factory with my brothers. That was a lot of fun. Ironically that was the first time we have ever done that. The week went by quickly but overall we enjoyed being able to see everyone.

Trying to catch up.

Sorry I have been pretty busy the last two weeks that I havent updated in awhile. Robbie came home on December 23. Here is Julianna getting into the Christmas tree before church. This was here Christmas dress. Was it bad that I didnt have a "Christmas outfit" for the boys??
