I haven't blogged about Jake in a while (or blogged at all) so I thought I would give you an update. We can say that Greg really loves me because we still have the dog. He is well behaved except for a couple of things like digging holes and barking. He has a powerful bark that will scare the pants off you. The kids love him and I only have to remind them to feed him every day :) I could do without the dog hair but we do love Jake! Besides, Paul won't let me get rid of him:)
Gabe has been so excited because this year he can do safety patrol. I think he was a little embarrassed that I came up to the school just to take a picture of him, but hey what are moms for. 
I can't believe it!! Sammy started preschool. All my babies are growing up (and so am I). This is Sam's first day at preschool at the YMCA. He is so excited but a little nervous because he doesn't know how to write his name. He told me he guesses he just needs to practice. At school they get to learn, play, swim and snack. What more could a kid ask for.
The first day of school is always great. It is the only day of the school year that my kids get right out of bed. Gabe not so much anymore. Anyway, here are a couple of pictures of the kids ready to go.
Sierra had to wear this dress. She got it from Grandma Denos on her trip out to California.
Gabe just keeps getting bigger and bigger and he is not so fond of taking pictures anymore. Like his dad.
It was Tori's birthday a couple of weeks ago and she wanted to have a little girls night with dinner at Hector's. Mind you Tori's usually has a week long birthday so this one of things she wanted to do. Here are just some fun pictures of our outing. In the picture above I think I was arguing with Tori about how much of a tip to leave. I am cheap, she is generous.
Mom decided she should help and pulled out a calculator from her purse. This was not just a small carry around calculator, this one on that sits on a desk at home, but mom had it in her purse.
Tori opening her present and not wanting to take a picture. But I don't care.
