Christmas day

We had a pretty good Christmas this year it was really nice to have Christmas in our new house. So here is how it went for us. We put the boys to bed at 6:30 so that we could all the stuff done that we needed to so that we could get to bed before midnight and we did. I could not believe it. I was laying in bed and said to Tory be ready to get up sometime around 5:00, he says I know, but to our surprise they did not wake us up until 7:00. I thought wow what good little sleepers I have.

This year we had the Nicholls family Christmas dinner at our house and what a blast we all had. We really wish that Janelle and her family could have been here but they are in Germany and we missed having Brandon and his family here but they were in Texas.

This would be my family

Brittany Murphy Dead At 32 Of Cardiac Arrest!


LOS ANGELES — Brittany Murphy, the actress who got her start in the sleeper hit "Clueless" and rose to stardom in "8 Mile" before her movie roles declined in recent years, died Sunday in Los Angeles of what appeared to be natural causes, a Los Angeles County coroner's official said. She was 32.

Murphy was pronounced dead at 10:04 a.m.Sunday Dec 20th at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, hospital spokeswoman Sally Stewart said.

Murphy was transported to the hospital after the Los Angeles Fire Department responded to a call at 8 a.m. at the home she shared with her husband, British screenwriter Simon Monjack, in the Hollywood Hills.

Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter said Murphy apparently collapsed in the bathroom, and authorities were looking into her medical history.

An official cause of death may not be determined for some time, since toxicology tests will be required, but "it appears to be natural," Winter said. He said an autopsy was planned for Monday or Tuesday.

Winter said Murphy's family was cooperating with the coroner's investigation. Funeral arrangements have not been announced, he said.

Los Angeles police have opened an investigation into Murphy's death, Officer Norma Eisenman said. Detectives and coroner's officials were at Murphy and Monjack's home Sunday afternoon but did not talk to reporters. Paparazzi were camped outside the multistory home, located above the Sunset Strip.

She will be forever missed. Here are some of my favorite movies that she played in... R.I.P Brittany

Blue or Pink?

Where do I even begin? On the 18th I had a doctors appointment it was the one where we were to find out the sex of the baby and Tory was not able to get off work so I had to go by myself. So I thought it would be cool to find out together later that day when he got home. So I had a friend bake a cake(thank you so much Kylie) and the inside would be BLUE for a BOY and PINK for a GIRL and we would cut into it that night. It was really hard to not know all day long but I did it and man it was the best surprise ever.



The cake that would tells us what the sex of our baby would be...


The whole family cutting into the cake to see if we were going to have a little brother or a little sister.




As you can tell by my face that I was SO not expecting the inside of that cake to be PINK. I thought for sure that we were having another boy.


Yes that is me crying but it is a cry of joy.


Yes I would have to say that looks very PINK to me..

4th of July fun!


We got up had breakfast then got dress and walked down to the parade yes that's right we get to walk to the parade because it goes passed the end of our street. The kids and a blast.



We sat with friends & family. After the parade we went down to the river and walked around. It was really hot so we took the boys home for a bit and let Braydon have a nap that he really needed badly.




After Braydon woke up from a most needed nap we had a BBQ that we needed to get to. So I got everything that we needed and out the door we went. It was really nice to let the kids just run around and play all after noon while us grown-ups sat and talked while eating some really good food.

After the BBQ we had lots of time before the fireworks later that night so we went and saw a friend and then picked up some things for Braydon's birthday party which will be on the 7th.


So at about 8:30 we packed up what we would need for the kids and made our way to the spot that we like to sit and watch the fireworks. We had about an hour and a half before they stared so we just let the kids run a play. We sit in a field every year so that we are not so close it works out really well because the fireworks are not to loud and you don't have to have your neck all the way back just to see them. The very best part about where we sit is that we get out right away and don't have to sit and wait on cars after words.

The fireworks were really pretty. I am so thankful that I was able to spend that night with my husband and kids. I would not want it any other way. Here is a BIG thanks to all those who have lost their lives or given a part of themselves for the sake of Independence. I am truly proud to be an American!!
The boys did pretty well for their age. Corbin is one that when he is tired everything and anything will bother him so after like 15 minutes he was ready to call it good. Braydon is one that will fight it as long as he can, he sat there for the whole thing very well. After it was over before we could even get all of our stuff together Braydon was trying to get in the car, he was so ready to go it was pretty funny. Corbin and Braydon were so ready for bed that night it was so nice to have them both go to bed with out a fight.
