SCORE!

So this actually posted before I had intended it to be so sorry about all the wordless pictures.  So it seems you already know all about our last week in Pismo this year but I guess I'll write down a few highlights for journal's sake. I was a little worried our week would be.  You see, we had just spent a full week in WA, straight down to 3 days in Portland, OR for the family reunion and then left that one day early to drive straight down to Pismo that day.  It was crazy and I truly thought about not going.  But then I thought about how much the kids love it.  And I thought about how much I love it.  And I thought about being at home a week without my husband.  It seemed foolish not to go, so we buckled up (literally) and went! The previous weeks I found all this fun stuff to go take the kids and do, but I figured after 2 full weeks of going out and doing stuff it would be perfect to just relax and hang out and what better place to d...

-- You know, like similes but with Em because she is the one saying them ... ok maybe it is a  stretch , it sounded like a good idea in my head --  This girl started talking a while back and HAS NOT STOPPED since.  She obviously gets that from her father...PAH!!  Okay, Okay ... like mother like daughter.  :) I love her facial expressions & hand gestures when she talks. Anyway, this girl is literally talking from the moment she wakes up until probably about and hour after I put her in bed, with the exception of when she is pretending to be shy for strangers.

So while most two year olds would say "more please" or "more juice" she says, "Mommy, come into the kitchen and pour me some juice please." And if I said okay, just a moment please. She would say, "Mommy, I want juice in the kitchen righ...

Ok, so obviously no relation to the tv show but lots of relation to us!  Every 3 year the Adams family has a huge family reunion.  People come in from all over the country to re-connect with the ever growing family.  We are related to the Adams family via the Score side.  Can I just tell you how very awesome this family is!  They welcomed me with open arms at the last reunion and it was a blast to see them all again and strengthen our relationship with them.  I am sad that they only happen every 3 years!  I'd totally be down for one every year but the costs add up quick, so I guess every 3 years is reasonable.  :) This year the reunion was in Portland, OR.  We had a great group, we even had some people I had never met.  I was worried how the kids would do, but the older kids just loved them to pieces and took such great care of them I hardly saw them at all!  :) (Warning: these pictures are completely out of ...
