I finally talked Micky into getting Family pictures. We have never had a real family picture with the kids. So almost 6 years later and enough begging from my Mom and Connie he gave in. This also made a really good Christmas Presents. Also here are other ones that we got done.. I have the cutest family!!

Just some random Pics... It's been a While

Just a small Update!!

I know it has been a while since i have posted, Ike ate my camera cord so I am having troubles downloading my pictures.

So Mickell said the funniest thing the other day so here it is:

Mickell: Mom where do eye bugars come from?
Mom: Well when your eyes run when you sleep you don't wipe your tears and they dry?
Mickell: Really?
Mom: Yes! Why?
Mickell: Oh good I thought that when I was asleep I picked my nose and wiped them in my eyes.

I will have pictures later but I came home from work on Monday and Kendrick had a new haircut. So I asked Mickell:

Mom: What happened to Buddy's Hair?
Mickell: I was playing Barber. So I cut it. (just a reminder Micky was home on Monday)
Mom: Did you know that to cut hair you have to go to school?
Mickell: Mom I do go to school. (pre-school)
Mom: Not to your school to hair school.
Mickell: I want to go to hair school now so I can cut my hair.
Mom: You can't go to hair school until you are older. Like Chris' age.
Mickell: Fine even though I don't want to wait that long.
Mom: Where was Dad when you were doing this??
Mickell: I waited unitl he had to go to the bathroom so I didn't get in trouble.
Buddy: Kel ruined my haircut. Kell cut my hair.

So as you can imagine buddy has gashes of hair missing. Good thing Micky got out when he did Buddy's turn was next to cut Mickell's hair.

Also kids have been playing tee-ball and have had a blast! (those pics are coming also). After Kendrick stoped tackling the kids and learned he had to share the ball and take turns batting things have been fun to watch. Mickell loves it also... she is more me everyday. We keep having to tell her not to do somersalts and picking the grass. But all the other girls are right along with her. I'm sad that there last game is tomorrow. Its been fun and good to see them play and learn.

Ike... who knew you could love a dog like a child

2008-06-08T20:10:00.000-07:00

It seems that Ike goes everywhere with us.We go camping he goes, we go to either my parents or Micky's parents he goes. I can't imagine what it would be like around here without him.. he's the cutest dog I could have.. I would say the cutest dog ever... but doesn't everyone think that about their dog??

The Connell Family Vacation

2008-05-07T19:22:00.000-07:00

Most of the Connell Clan went to the Oregon Coast. It was so much fun.. even if we did go over 3,000 miles. We stayed at a beach house in Newport Oregon. The most important thing is that we all are still alive from being together for so long. I think the only fights were if Mickell or Kylee got more food or treats then one another. We had to make sure that everything was the same. And now that we are home--nothing has changed. But in all they are still making pictures for eachother so in Mickells words... She is still my favorite girl cousin... and Sariah. She loves them both. Buddy got to ride the train at the Oregon Zoo and that was the peek of his trip. Then after he got to meet the "train guy", that he won't stop talking about. So now he has to call the train guy everyday to come and see him. We just learned his name is Thomas.. I was not suprised.

Crazy Kids!!

2008-04-03T20:03:00.001-07:00

Buddy Loves for me to take pictures of him, just so he can see it after...And of course they are always odd pictures. The Picture below is buddy playing with Ike. He wraps himself up in his blanket and calls Ike and Ike tries to attack him. Every once in a while Buddy loses and Ike gets him.

Mickell Thought that she would be funny and pretend that she was a pink ghost. When we got to Black Grandma's she put her coat on backwards and put the hood over her face and scared everyone. Mostly we were laughing because she kept running into things.

Mickell also loves getting her picture taken and then loves to look at it. She thinks she is so funny...Most the time she really is. And they also get me involved.

It's Bath Time!!

2008-04-03T19:44:00.000-07:00

Ike is a spoiled dog. So when we get in the shower he cries and scratches the door to get in. One day Micky let him in with him and he loved it. Ike now is always trying to get in the shower with Micky and I, or is trying to get in the tub with the kids. The only bad part is that he looks like a rat afterwords.

Thanks for helping with a goodnights rest!!

Yellow Grandma (Grandma Ronda) made them pillowcases for their birthday. Mickell thought that if she took off her princess pillowcase that she wouldn't be a princess anymore. Don't worry I made sure she still thinks she is a princess...she has the sheets to prove it. Also buddy let me take off a Thomas pillowcase and he won't sleep on anything else.

Jump for joy its our Birthday Party!!

2008-03-25T20:29:00.000-07:00

Buddy was so excited for his birthday party now that his best friend was there.

Mickell and Grandma Great White (White as in her house is white). It was so fun that Grandma Pebley could come to their birthday party.

Putting the TRAMPOLINE together. I didn't know it took so many people-or huge hammers!!

Its finally done and we're having fun! Mickell Buddy and Kylee all got to show us how fun it is to be a kid.

HORRAY its our Birthday!!

2008-03-24T13:47:00.000-07:00

Mickell and Buddy just found out they got a Trampoline for their birthday. When we asked them what they wanted Mickell said a purple Unicorn or a trampoline (We thought the tramp a whole lot easier to find). Buddy wanted fast cars and trains---what a shock!!

We love the Artic Circle Happy Birthday to us!! Mickel and Kendrick got to go to the article circle for their birthday along with Kylee, Bracken, Stef, Grandma and most of all Cody! Buddy cried the whole way home because he missed Cody!

We Love Stephy so much we wanted to share the same Birthday!

Easter day with the cousins.

2008-03-23T21:03:00.000-07:00

Cody, Kendricks best friend, couldn't wait one more day to give Kendrick and Mickell their birthday presents. So they got them early. Buddy got a Transformer and Mickell got a Barbie. Buddy hasn't put it down as you can imagine.

Showing that they really do love each other. Don't they look so cute.

Getting ready for the FIGHT for the Easter Eggs. I know there was a puch or two! But it is all in good fun... i hope.

Ike even got into the Easter Egg Hunt.

Don't Mickell and Kylee look so cool with their Ring Pops.
