Kooking with KoKo/San Diego Day #4/Trust


Yesterday we did lots of Dr. Appointments.  Just check ups.  Elizabeth and Michael were very cute together.


Wednesday we invited KoKo over to be our Baking Instructor.  She taught the kids how to make shortbread.  It was a lot of fun.  

On our 4th day in San Diego we went to Sea World.  I remember as a child loving Sea World.  It was an amazing place and I wanted to grow up and be an Marine Biologist and swim with the Killer Whales.  (Recently I met a woman in my stake who did just that.  For 5 years she worked with the Orcas, and Baloga Whales.  She said that all the negative publicity that has been directed at Sea World recently, that she never saw any of that in the years she worked there.  That it was always wonderful and very positive.)



It was also my Birthday.  Derek had gotten me 2 gifts that he completely surprised me on.  He is so cute and my mom got me Mickey Ear rings, Necklace, mugs, and a picture of Grandma Warnock.  It was a good day.

WE ARE EXPECTING BABY #5

John Derek would like the baby to be a boy so that he can have a brother. Samantha would like the baby to sleep in her room. Elizabeth would like the baby to have brown hair so that more kids in the family would look like her. Then the conversation turned to names. Here are some of their favorites: Elizabeth wants: Sarah, Eva, Evelyn, or Eve, and if it is a boy Phineas or Ferb Samantha wants: Sam or Ammon John Derek wants: Johnny Maddison wants: Cinderella and Johnny So here we go. Taking on a new adventure of 5 children with faith that we are following our Father in Heaven's desires for our family. In this last conference Pres. P...

First day of school August 2014

First day of school!!  Eveyone was so excited.  Especially little Maddie.  Since March she has been asking me when she would get to go to kindergarten.  She was tired of preschool and wanted to be a big girl.  We told her she would have to wait until after swim team.  For about the last month she has asked everday when swim team would be over.  Finally we had our last swim even, the weekend, and school. For Kindergarten the first week back the kids only come one day so that the teachers can evaluate them and put the classes together.  Maddie's day was Monday which worked out perfect so that everyone could start on the same day. As Maddie got ready she and Samantha were suck like glue.  Samantha being the doting big sister and helping her out with lunch, backpack, and clothes.  We all walked into school and everyone was eager to help drop Maddie off.  When we got to the room the teacher looked at her and said, "Maddie! are you su...
