Happy Birthday to You!

Easter!!!

Sorry we have not blogged in a while, but we have been pretty busy. Anyway, we had a great easter. First Moms cousin and her husband came down from Cupertino for the morning session of General Conference. Then Jessica, Rory, Sadie, Grandma and Grandpa Lance, and Uncle Scott came over for the egg hunt and lunch. So, we have this sparkly golden egg we dubbed the Golden Egg. Whoever finds the Golden Egg gets a prize (and bragging rights). This year I FOUND THE GOLDEN EGG!!!!! Okay, its not that exciting since I've found it two other times. For the prize I got a golden colored color-it-yourself poster. Anyway, after I found the Golden Eg- I mean, finished the egg hunt, we watched the second session of General Conference and then everyone came back over for dinner. Well, its been a fun day! I think I'll finish by saying,

HAPPY EASTER!

-Julia

(Sorry, no pictures, you'll have to go to Jessica's blog for those!)

STAR TREK!!!

we are MAJOR trekkers. Our mom,julia and I went to the the star trek exhibition yesterday with the scheibs and it was awesome! There was the original bridge from the original series and there was a teleporter that teleported me and the rest of the gang to paris! and there was a model of the borg ship. and models of all of the U.S.S. ships such as the enterprise and the voyager. and there were rides to that were expensive but awesome!

Our Pets

So here are pictures of our pets: This is Captain Hook. He got his name from the end of his tail which is curved. And he's evil.
This is Fluffy. You can see why she's named that.
This is Jake. He's a dork.
Okay, Cheese is on the left and Rocky is on the right. Cheese is Joshua's and Rocky is mine.

And this is Chocolate Chip. I couldn't find Oliver or Kit Kat so you'll have to live without a picture of them.

Chickens!!!!!!!!!

So our mom and dad are getting chickens! (Happy dance) and they already made(with our help)a chicken coop. I (Josh) and julia are home schooled with another family. I HATE history day (Monday) because I have to write a ton of sentences and paragraphs. Oooops!! gotta go! (school time!) Bye!!

The One And Only JOSHUA!!

What We're Doing

Well, Jessica and Jarom are married and Jarom and Stephanie (his wife) live in Utah where Joanna is going to BYU. Justin is going to collage here and Jordan and Janae are seniors in high school. Joshua and I are home schooled. I'm in the 7th grade and Josh is in the 5th. Well, I have to go to a confrence now.

-Julia

P.S. Jessica's husbands name is Rory. They have a 18 month old girl named Sadie.

Meet The Cats

Sooo... let me describe our cats. Oldest to youngest. First theres Fluffy (I6 years old) Kit cat and chocolate chip are bros and sisters (I4 or I5) then comes oliver (3) then hook (2). Fluffy's the queen of the back yard. Kit cat and chocolate chip just roam around doing business. Oliver is the king of the front yard (all though the cats hardly excuse me NEVER go to the front yard.). hook thinks he owns the backyard although Fluffy really rules it. Well thats it!

pictures later (couldn't find a few cats) sorry!!
