WHAT A WEEK!

 I LOVE THIS PICTURE OF LITTLE KAIDYN! BEST BABY ESPECIALLY WHEN SHE IS HELD!

ME AND MY BABY GIRL HANGING OUT, WE BOTH LIKE TO SPORT THE COLOR PINK!

THESE THREE ARE PRETTY TIGHT!  DEVYN PRETTY MUCH THINKS HER BIG BRO AND SIS ARE THE COOLEST THING EVER!

THIS IS WHAT MAKES ME SMILE!  DOPE BENCH!  THIS IS WHERE CHAMPIONSHIP TEAMS ARE MADE, AND WHY OTHER PEOPLE ROOT FOR YOU, WHEN YOU HAVE GIRLS LIKE THESE!!!

This might be my favorite picture of the year!  That is why I love that guy all that passion, fire, and commitment, he brings it every day!  The other highlight of this picture is that amazing girl on the bottom Elyse B. she is pretty much a fan favorite and you can see she has that same passion, fire, and commitment... every day!

So yeah we had quite a week! As mentioned in the last post I really felt that the girls were in a rut... so we started a new tradition had a great talk about finding the joy in what you do, and seriously I think a lot of it had to do with the girls seeing the end is near and fearing it at the same time, well the girls took off!  We had senior night on Tuesday vs Santa Margarita and the girls were all over the place!  Jordan was throwing full court dimes, Ko was being Ko, we were trapping and sliding, high fiving, and the team threw in 12 threes!  everyone was on fire!  On Fire the most though, was our bench!  They were amazing and everyone in the stands saw it!  Shout out to our super fan, Dana Vasquez, and our great spirit Anamativa Grey for coming to see us... it was a great night and I am super sad to be know how close were are to the journey coming to an end with Lyndsay, Megan, Mya and Haugie!!!  Friday we had our anticipated showdown with Cajon from San Bernandino,  probably have the best senior in California on their team and they were very pumped to come into our house and pull off a victory!  Not to be had by them this time around though!  It was a great opportunity for the girls to see regardless of our talent we have a little ways to go to reach our goals for the end of this season! Shout out to my best friend and college teammate Stephanie Townsed for coming to the game, Dana and her papa Mr. Vasquez, the Fonger and his girls (who cheered the whole game with CJ),  Geri C. and not to be forgotten the NEABORS CLAN was in the house on pappas birthday no less thanks guys it was awesome seeing you! Highlights.... well Ko exerting her will in the second half and scoring 21 points, Rocky straight up D-ing that girl though she scored 28pts I really think only 6 of those were on Rock!  Jordan again throwing those beautiful long for lay up passes and giving you the finger point when you lay it in, Alexyz off the bench and igniting for points, steals, and rebounds right away, and Haugen knocking down threes and communicating every step of the way, and Mya who was probably the best player out there the first six minutes of the game!  So we didn't blow them out like we should have but we did some good things and learned some things as well!

The kids have been doing good, the little girls have been battling a bad cough and fever.... Devyn thinks she is a beautiful princess "mommy I am not ugly I am beautiful... and a princess" oh brother where did this girl come from???  Kaidyn has two solid teethies broken in and her favorite thing is to dance, she loves to be sung to and swung around!  Camryn is starting softball practice this week she is so excited and in her words" mom, I am really working on my three pointer and left hand"  ha ha she is 7 can she even reach the three point line?  Brenden has been an amazing helper and has been doing a good job of learning to be my muscle, carrying bags in and of the house to and from the car, helping with the little girls, holding doors for us as he would say "ladies first..." we will get an amazing gentleman from him yet!  Our favorite show as a family... American Idol, the kids love to watch Malcolm in the Middle with daddy, their favorite song "Emotions" from the Mamma Mia sound track mine is "You will go far" by Offspring.

Is anyone out there watching Lost?  Oh my!!  

So here is my thought for the day... mommys and daddys you get these little guys for such a short time my thinking is God gave them to you pretty perfect, an image of him my only job is TO DO NO HARM and to love them, be their parent, teach them discipline, and to know that it is their journey and their life and you are just a background guide teaching them to walk on their own two feet!  

I would rather see a sermon everyday then hear one!

 BE HAPPY, HAVE SMILES
