Ladies and Gentlemen...

The Kindergarten Circus is a Must See Event at Elk Grove Elementary...It was started by Dalen's Kindergartner teacher from last year (Weinstock who is now retired but subs) and has been going strong for about 23 years. The first one was done with paper grocery bags decorated by the children and since then they have added costumes and props year by year. It is a huge production now that the kindergartners work on for a whole month...This is our second circus we've gotten to see...Dalen was an Elephant last year but woke up sick that morning :(
Tiger Deveon

Look at this make-up! I thought he was the cutest little animal there!

Here's the tiger locked in his cage...

And here's his performance...it's hilarious at 0:20...

The Big 6

My second beautiful baby boy...Mr. Deveon born June 1st 2003...exactly 12 monthes and 13 days after his big brother Dalen...apparently could not wait to come down too...This kid is such a little me, with the moodiness, night owl, and great looks! He has such a great imagination and many people are just drawn to him even though he seems shy...He has the perfect spot in this family, play with big brother Dalen AND play with little sister Lexis...they both fight over him at times...He is such a big help in our family and he recently has taken the new role as Laundry Boy in the home...He is very smart and is doing a wonderful job as he finishes up Kindergarten and moves on to first grade...He loves to run and is currently playing soccer and he is really good at arcade games on xbox and wii (brain from Daddy)...Happy Birthday my baby Cheeto-Britos

May Memories

This was our neighbor when we lived in Stockton, Miss Jenny...her and her family lived across the street from us and she was Dalen and Deveon's babysitter since they were born...She would come with us to church every week and we became good friends with her and her family...She finally decided to be baptized we went to see her join the church through baptism and then went to see her confirmed in our old ward the next day...We love Jenny and she will always be in our hearts...Glad we could be a part of your day!
Some cute pictures from Memorial Day...We had a kinda lazy day aside from going with daddy on his calls to work...

Music Crush

***new stuff***

Click here for the best interview of Adam and Kris...these guys are great, so funny...the best is at minute 1:20ish (the ? about the top bunk and hear what adam is most excited about for the idols live tour, which by the way I am going to and now I am excited for this as well, Adam...)

*******************************

(*Skip to 1:10 for the song and skip over Adam's ramblings unless you want to hear him talk and remember to pause the music at the right before you listen too. Oh, and for the those computers that can take it click on the HQ for high quality)

My Musical Opinion

Kris won but this guy is Amazing! I seriously get chills when he sings and I am already a big fan...This guy will be HUGE! and yes the guyliner is really cool in my opinion...it's just make up and make up is used to inhance our beauty right? So go for it...I love how music can touch us in a way that goes straight to the soul...So when there are artists out there that are unbelievably talented like Adam and Kris who can connect through music and reach out to people with just words and notes it really needs to be recognized and appreciated.

**go ahead leave a comment and tell me what a dork I am...

HB Dalen

Happy Birthday to my 1st baby seven years ago...


In Utah with his Uncle Jesse...

I love this little guy so much...he really his a great kid and anyone who knows Dalen knows that he is such a kind hearted, loving big brother and wonderful family member...He is very obedient sometimes to a fault and is so helpful when he chooses to be...which is most of the time...he loves Karate and enjoys playing with Deveon outside, basketball and with their huge firetruck...Inside they love watching movies, playing Wii, pirate ships and yes still playing trains...He is great in school and his teacher loves him and he loves school...and that about sums up all of Dalen's joys in life...Happy Birthday Little Man...Mwa...xoxoxo
