Wild Animal Park

We took our wild bunch to the Wild Animal Park . I love hanging out with my little guys they are so fun. We rode the tram and hiked all through the park. It was neat to see how excited the kids were to see there favorite animals.





Tay loved all the animals.















Sam loves Giraffes.






Jake loves the cheetahs.




















My favorite guys !
















State Cup 2011

Beautiful Lancaster in January. This year Taylor's team played in the State Cup. The girls did a great job and won the first 4 games they played and made it to the final 16 teams. They were defeated in a hard fought game in the sweet 16. I am so proud of them ! Scotty was able to get time off and get us a motorhome for the Lancaster games. It was so much fun to have him there and to be able to stay at the fields with our friends the Keefe's. It was freezing but still great.Way to go CFC!!! I can not wait for next year .






So cold!!!and windy too!




Sammy girl


It was just to far to walk to the bathroom. These two are quite a team!






Her little hands tucked in her shirt to stay warm. CRAZY cold!!


Tough Tay crushing the Celtics!










Of course the geckos came with us.

Field to field transportation.


Jordan and Jake staying warm between games. Jordan is so sweet to the little guys!


Games in our jammies. This is the way to travel for soccer for sure. Just wake up and the field is right outside the door.


Love these girls !




















Geckos

After all that happened with Richard (the lizard) We decided to get Sammy a gecko for Christmas. It was the only thing she wanted! So we started looking to see what our options were. She decided she liked the crested geckos the best. We found a girl on craigslist that was selling baby geckos and we were so excited. Hoping if we got the gecko young it would like to be held, and well loved. So Scott and I headed to Garden Grove to get our new pet. Of course it looked like some crack house and I was afraid we were going to die. I am not joking it was the dirtiest grossest house I have ever been in. Trash and stuff everywhere, the floor all ripped up and the smell AAGGGHH! They were in the back bedroom and as we walked back I was having flashes of law and order and CSI running through my head. Thank God Scott did not let me go alone ! Well we went for 1 and came home with 3. I know I never wanted to go back there again. Sammy was so excited Christmas morning! After all presents were opened Scotty came out and told her he cut his hand as he opened it there was her gecko. She screamed and hugged him . Taylor hid in the corner and cried. She hates lizards. Scott then came out with the other 2 and said they needed friends. Taylor just cried and buried her head in a pillow. She has now adjusted and will even hold them. Sammy loves them and not even to death yet. So here are our newest members of our crazy family! This is jumper.

Sammy made a lizard circus one day and taught them how to walk a tight rope. Yep they made it across. And no lizards were hurt in the performance. She was so proud of herself and her pets !
This is jumper crossing the rope. He made it across !

And last but not least Gary ! Not sure if they are boys or girls yet but I am sure with our luck there is a mix of both. I will let you know if we get eggs.

The whole gang.
