Unicorns...

Quote of the day:  (Talon while taking a bath)

"I love to swim with my unicorns"

There you have it ladies and gentlemen.  Talon is our highest quote producer at the moment and we will keep you updated when there is more material :)

New Year!

The holiday's are over and it's time for another update.  I have found I like reading my own blog, since I don't even visit it that much; I guess it's my on-line journal.

Dave finally found a job and is happy to be back in the grind.  Except on days like today, when he's sick and would rather be in bed, but he is doing great and loving learning new things.

I'm trucking along at my job, reigning in my domain, as I am the Office Manager and only employee :)  I enjoy it and know everything there is to know about Las Vegas now, in a business sense...

Tristan got more art supplies for Christmas and was happier than a clam.  He produces numerous drawings in one sitting and wants to explain each one in detail when he is done.  Thanks to having lived with an artist growing up (Schmeel) I can totally appreciate his zanyness.  He loves his brothers and is always willing to help.  The latest is folding the dinner napkins in interesting and fancy ways!

Jake is loving music as always; playing guitar hero on the Wii whenever we allow it.  He is also in the chess club at school and on the jump rope team, for the second year in a row.  He is almost always happy, unless he thinks he has done something wrong, which is hardly ever.  He is a great big brother and loves making DJ laugh his head off.

Talon is quite the builder and brings us lego or Knex concauctions daily as gifts.  Dj wants to join in, but it usually turns into baby godzilla and Talon slamming the door to his room so that his latest buildings won't get destroyed.  He is very sweet, but is trying to get used to someone younger than him being around.

Dj is the ham.  He loves to be free, from restraint in public, and run away into the wild.  He definitely has "the call of the wild" in him.  If we put him down in a shopping mall he would run away, talk to everyone, and not even miss us.  Last night at McDonald's he was "flirting" with another dad, in hopes of charming his cell phone away from him.  The funniest was the other day in the cell phone store Dave was holding him and he was literally shaking with want of playing with the show cell phones.  Anything electronic that flips, clicks, makes noise, or in anyway shows life, is a MUST to have for him.  Flip cell phones especially.

We love you all and appreciate everyone's support and connections to our family!!  We hope you have a prosperous New Year and we wish you lots of love and happiness!
