HE DID IT!!!!

After 2 years of studying for the CPA exam, Kenny has finally passed it! He is now a CPA! For those of you who don't know what a CPA is, it is a Certified Public Accountant. I know that in many of your worlds it doesn't mean much but in the Accounting world we live in it is a great accomplishment. It consists of 4 sections and you must receive a 75% to pass each section. It is also ranked as one of the hardest test out there for any professsion. It wasn't easy and with 3 kids I can't imagine doing it myself, but he did! I am so proud of you hun! We can know enjoy our dad even more. No more nights at the library and studying at the kitchen table. It was a sacrifice for all but know that it will benefit our family!

We are so proud of you Kenny and we think you are the best dad and husband in the world!!!

WE LOVE YOU!!!!

Drum roll please!!!!

We had our Dr.'s visit today and we found out we are having a little GIRL!!!! I can hardly believe it! After having three awesome boys, I can't think of a better way to end our little family then with a sweet little angel. James told me all along that it was a girl. He said that "Heavenly Father wouldn't send us a boy because we already have too many. " Needless to say I am still in shock and can't wait to fill my house with pink instead of blue! This picture is old but the only one I have of her!

Disneyland

Yes, I am making a post...can you believe it! Last week we took the boys to Disneyland! They had the best time. It was perfect weather and perfect crowds. Kenny's parents came and Aunt Ashley and they have some pictures that I really want to post so I will have to post them when I get them. Anyway, we had a great time despite being really sick, and the boys were for the most part really good. Can't wait until next time. Here are just a few pictures of all the fun we had. James' wish came true. He wanted so bad to find Mickey and take his picture with him!

The boys loved their Micky ears!



Waiting in line for bugs life!





Jackson was really done at this point!



Of course we had to do the Jedi Training. And of course we waited for awhile so that the boys could be in the front row and get picked and of course, annoying parents that have no manners shove their kids in front of mine and lastly, of course, my kids don't get picked and theirs do! I am really not bitter!After Disneyland we headed for Palm Springs were my Aunt Trish lives and played in the sun for a couple of days. Thanks Trish for letting us stay and enjoy your home!

It was a great time to spend with the best family in the world. I love you all!
