OMSI OUTING

I don't know about you but I love FREE stuff! and when the charter school that my children go to had FREE NIGHT AT OMSI....we were soooo there!! I have never been to this OMSI, so I was soooo super excited! Now, I'm not much of a science person per say. I'm mostly into History, Math, Art, stuff like that so the science part of the place held real no interest to me...but they had the DI VINCI stuff there, I literally could of been there all day! all week! all month! There was just soooo much, and there I was soakin in as much as I possibly could! And I couldn't take pics of this stuff cause they had a sign that said "NO PICTURES PLEASE". RUDE! I was basically by myself 'cause my family was just skimming thru the stuff...I had to read EVERTHING! I didn't even get to see everything! I should of told Mike to leave me be and take the kids to the science part but then I wouldn't have gotten any pics. oh well. We all enjoyed ourselves and had fun, and that's what counts. So here are some pics of our OMSI OUTING! ENJOY!



I have noooo idea what creature this is....all I know is that it looks freaky!

OUR DI VINCI PHOTO-OP's








This is what you would look like in the space shuttle....awfully cramped in there, not my style!








This is one of the original "waffled NIKE shoe" betcha didn't know that!!






CHOOO CHOOO!!!! I LUV TRAINS! and I swear every pic, Brayden has that mouth opened...sooo annoying!







Now this stuff was cool....an old Portland clock and typewriter...I'm so geeky when it comes to this stuff! :P





Last but not least....this was a number puzzle...you had to put in the right numbers to make this puzzle right...mike was messing with it first and wasn't getting it completely right...so i look over and start telling him where to put the numbers, and with his help (<---- I had to put that last part in there cause he was mad i wouldn't give him credit...but really i got it right... :P ) "WE" got the puzzle right. and you should of heard me....WOOOHOOO! with my "rocker signs" in the air! OHHH YEAH!!! I'm surprised someone didn't escort me out the building with that noise infraction!

My Girlie-Girl turned 9 this month!!

Isn't she just a beauty! Love this pic of her!

so yeah she turned 9 on April 20th! Let me take the time to share her with you. She is almost like my clone when it comes to certain things. She love writing, drawing, coloring. If you see her and she has no pen or paper with her...SHOCKER! Everywhere she goes, she has her "stuff" with her. She steals my pens and paper. I stock up at the begining of the school year with school supplies, tons of notebooks, tons of crayons, tons of pens...and in a matter of a month or two...they are all gone!! And all of the notesbooks are written upon or drawed upon..every single side of the pages. NO JOKE!!

She loves to read! That girl is always reading...when shes not writing or coloring! She's been begging to read the TWILIGHT series...shes watched the movie and now wants to read it. So I recently gave her the green light.

She loves dancing and music. She loves dancing with her best friends at school, shes constantly showing me her "groups" dance moves, not bad if you ask me. She is a social butterfly, loves her friends dearly. She does great in school. Very smart cookie :)She loves to learn anything and everything! She loves loves loves clothes! And the color PINK! It kills her having to go to a school where they wear "uniforms"!

She loves helping me cook and bake. If I'm in there...shes in there. She enjoys doing the dishes too. I did too when I was younger...so she'll grow out of it soon! Until then...I will use her wisely :) She is awesomely good at doing puzzles. She can whip those out like krazy!

Another way she and I are alike is in the sleep department!! She can stay up late, and then sleep in till like noon! She is very, very hard to wake up in the morning. no matter how early to bed she got. So yes, KARMA is rearing her ugly head at me...sorry mom and dad for being a pain in the butt in the mornings! :)

She loves to play with long hair! She gravitates to girls with long hair! She will put you to sleep...and fast! I think its one of her "secret weapons". ha!
She loves her Aunts like krazy! She has a soft spot for them and boy does she have a lot of them! Ashley, Tanya, Malissa, Jessica, Karee, Cecile, and Celeste. Even though 5 out of the 7 dont live close by and she doesnt see them a lot, she still remembers them and talks about some of the stuff she remembers. She also loves her Grandmas! Donna and DeDe....and she talks a lot about G-ma Holaday! Mostly because of cooking and baking with her!! she'll say..."remember when Grandma Holaday made this....it was soooo fun!" shes not one to forget, thats for sure!!

So as you can she, she is a beauty inside and out! Loves life and those who are in it! Theres just soo many aspects to this girl that I know I'm missing something....

We just love this girl and are very lucky to have her in our lives!!

LUV YA GIRL!!!
