Happy Birthday Julia!

It is Julia's 10th birthday today. I can't believe we've hit double digits! She is a great daughter and big sister to her siblings. She loves to sing and dance and is still doing great with her piano playing. Julia likes to play with her Webkinz and her new Nintendo DS she got for Christmas. She is having a party with some friends on Saturday. We are taking them bowling and she is very excited for that.

Katie's Christmas

Katie had a very fun Christmas. She is always a happy girl, (Except when she's yelling at Matthew to leave her alone.) so the excitement of Christmas just made her even happier. She wasn't quite sure what to expect, but when she discovered most of the biggest packages had her name on them she was happy, and ready to get playing. Her favorite things have been the fairy dress up clothes, and the hungry hippo game. She's also had fun with the new baby dolls, and the little people dance and twirl palace. She also got some fairy card games that everybody has been playing with her. To top it off she got a ballet barbie, and some clothes.

Emma's Christmas

Emma had a fun Christmas and got some fun presents. She got clothes, two new webkinz and some clothes for her webkinz, some new boots, a diary, a Barbie Christmas Carol DVD, and a pink Nintendo DS with a Littlest Pet Shop Game and a carrying case. She didn't want to write anything on the blog, but she has a pretty cute/funny video where she talks about her presents.

Matthew's Christmas

I got transformers, a radio controlled car, a webkinz bat, zelda video game, k'nex/legos, kung fu panda DVD, and a clone wars DVD. ghbnjhghjbkjjuyughkj;;dffffghgvgfghcfdfgrftftrtjygfdgdehuikopdgfgfvvv fcbfgtdf gfbytyybtvvrhr fgbygfnf hg r

Matthew typed everything above himself (with some help in the spelling), and then he said he wanted to go crazy so I thought that would probably be okay. He went through opening his presents just like he went through discussing them on the video, very quickly. He has had fun and we've managed to get the driveway cleared off enough for him to drive his car around outside which he really likes doing.

Julia's Christmas

On Christmas I got some really cool toys. I got a Nintendo DS, Lego Star Wars game, some brown boots, a game called Pictureka, some webkinz clothes, a webkinz bottle nose dolphin, a pretty bag, a watch, Prince Caspian DVD (which is not included in the picture), and a pretty necklace. When I went to bed on Christmas Eve, I slept in a sleeping bag in Emma's room. I tried to sleep but I couldn't I was in there for a while finally I told my mom and dad and they helped me take my stuff to my room, once I was in bed I fell asleep quickly. I had a very fun Christmas and can't believe the year is almost over.

Ballet Recital

Last Saturday Emma and I had a ballet recital. It was at the North Davis junior high. We did it with our friends Jordan and Mckenna and some other girls. We danced to the music box. I think our costumes were really cute. It was cool because once we were talking about costumes Mckenna and Emma wanted a pink costume, Jordan and I wanted purple and we got both. I had lots of fun performing and can't wait until we do our spring recital. The video of our performance is below.
