I'm so sad... I want to scream, cry, and turn back time all at once : (

It was an honest mistake but I'm having a hard time not lashing out. I realised today that Saturday Justin accidentally deleted ALL of the pictures and videos on my camera! I've lost everything from right after school started in August-last Saturday (Dec. 12). Seriously, so much lost and since I haven't been blogging like I should for the past few months I can't even find relief in my blog. The ones I am the most sad about are Halloween. My girls were both so cute and we had some fun family pics (we hardly ever have pics of all of us and now they are gone!!)

For Halloween Alexis was Princess Leia (she loves Star Wars, especially the old movies) and Ariana was a Giraffe (her favorite animal that she is OBSESSED with). I can't believe they are gone... I LOVED those pictures and movies and I think it was because they defined where my girls personalities are right now so well. (Halloween normally isn't like that but this year it just was).

On a sad note but not as sad as my personal photos I also lost ALL of my preschool photos from this year in preschool (and twilight, and Thanksgiving and decorating the Christmas tree). Ok I need to stop because now I am crying....

Ok I'm back:

So here is my plea, if you have any pictures of our family from September-December 12 can you please, Please, PLEASE email/send them to me?

Thanksgiving Memories

We went to Utah for Thanksgiving. My sister-in-law Kimberly had to work on Thursday so we called Friday Thanksgiving. So Thanksgiving Friday we had TOTALLY fun day. We played speed basketball, tackle football and most exciting Alexis learned how to ride a bike without training wheels!

My sister-in-law Kelly was telling me Friday morning about some good black Friday bike deals at Wal-Mart and that got us talking about how Alexis needs a new bike because she can ride her scooter faster than she can our little bike and she is a little embarrassed by her training wheels. Kelly mentioned that when they are ready they just "get it" referring to ridding without training wheels. We went out and decided to see if she would even ride on a bigger bike. I held the back and she took off. It only took me a minute to realise I could let go of the bike because Alexis was balancing the bike all on her own!! Yippee no more training wheels!! Congratulations Alexis! She rode her cousin Ryan's bike the rest of the trip and when ever she was on it had this HUGE grin on her face. Now she is begging for a new bike... maybe Santa can find one ; )

This is me trying to keep up with her and (notice Justin is just in his socks! ; ) )

The boys had fun doing silly stunts and of course pictures had to be taken.
