Andrew, you're so buff! Keep working on that.
Do you wonder what they're all looking at? 
Thats me waving.
Thats Josh saying he loves me in sign language. Hank was mad at him for taking him on that ride because of the big drop. Guess he forgot to tell him about that.
Parker and Ali played so well together, they're so cute.
Uncle David building sand castles with the kids, looks like he was chasing them but he wasn't. Well maybe he was...
Cute Parker. I put blue gel in his and Hank's hair but Parkers was too dark to notice. He like it spikey though.
When we got there, He ran straight to the water. Surfer in training? Not if they find anymore great whites off our coasts.
Digging
Showing off the rocks they found. Ali copied everything Parker did.
She insisted on pulling the wagon at the zoo. Which I never recommend taking a wagon to the Phx Zoo. Notice she only has one piggy in, thats because she doesn't like to have her hair done, so she'd rather look scraggly. Princesses and ponies? Not my daughter, give her an airplane and army men. She also is in love with Superman, but whose not? Our zoo has an amazing water play area that why she looks like she doesn't have pants on, she has her swimsuit on under her shirt. Notice how Hank is oblivious to whats going on, he didn't even know she was pulling him. Way to into his snowcone.
Awe my little pumpkin.

Oh yeah, she thinks she's a power ranger too. Splash pad at our mall.
Cuteness speaks for itself...I made the skirt.
Ahhh. Finally a picture of me. I don't know what Ali was doing, but we took this pic like 5 times and she kept making funny faces each time. Goofball. Outside of Minnie's House.
Apparently I was the only one interested in taking a picture to remember what a fun fourth of July we had in Heber. Josh thinks it actually cool to do "Blue Steele".
It looks she is standing graveside, but she's not. It was at least 100 degrees and she would not let me take her long sleeves and tights off.
So I went to girls camp this week and I had a really fun time. There is nothing like getting to know people until you've camped with them. Here is what I learned... to be continued I have to make dinner first.
Can you dig it? Its time for our Far Out Second Annual New Years Party. Last years Masquerade was such a big hit that we are continuing the tradition. Too bad Texas can't join us for a night at the car wash. That's right baby get your funk on at the Fletcher Pad New Years Eve.
Our theme is "At the Car Wash" Here is what you'll need:
An appropriate costume featuring the era
A "Car Wash" Poster representing your family
A Family Theme Song or individual theme song
Funky names
Car Wash game (per family) or
Dance (Jers I'm certain you'll want to choose Macho Man as your song) Nevermind, I'll just bring the video. Ha ha)
Video Camera
and anything else you think appropriate.
If you have any songs you would like to see on the "Fletcher Car Wash Soundtrack" please email me.
We need some help with fixin's too: I was thinking Fried chicken? Any other ideas?
Happy NEW YEAR
So today was Pokie's birthday. She is 2 now. I'm so sad about that. We set up a toddler bed for her (that I got on clearance) earlier this week, that was sad too. And she has officially been off her pacifier, though she still has withdrawls, for a little over a month now. I want to give it to her so bad sometimes, mostly only at night when she won't go to bed. She does pretty good about not getting out of her bed now that she has the freedom to but thats probably because Josh is the one to help her go to sleep and she doesn't dare get out of bed if he is around. However if I try putting her to bed, she can get out and run around and have a party. I don't understand.
So we didn't open presents or have birthday cake because she fell asleep before she even had dinner. She didn't take a nap today so she was knocked out early. Of course I tried giving her a nap, but of course, she didn't stay in her bed. Another sad thing that happened on this poor girl's birthday was when we were at Hank's soccer practice, she decided to go exploring (dad was watching her). She comes crying to me a football field away holding her hand out that was full of teeny tiny little slivers. It looked like she tried to pet a cactus. So there must have been over 100 slivers ( if that is what you call them) in one hand. I picked out the most that I could, then we took her home, soaked her hand in water and then Josh pulled the rest out with the tweezers. Poor baby! As he was extracting the slivers she fell asleep right in his lap. Happy Birthday Baby.
Today also marks one week from the day she finally learned how to say "Hank". I was so excited about that. It was at Hank's soccer game last week, I was calling to him across the field and then suddenly I hear a little echo. I looked down and she is yelling for him too. It was so funny. Ever since then she says his name great (well at least for a 2 year old).
