Happy Thanksgiving




I know Thanksgiving was yesterday, but we had more Thanksgiving today, so it just isn't over yet. We went to Dodd's parent's yesterday and had lots of fun visiting with everyone. Brooke loved playing with her cousin Milana, and Jake loved his uncle Eric's video games!! Today we went to my parent's house and got to see Ben's and Tammy's families. We had a wild game of Bingo and played in the big hole in the backyard where Grandpa took the pool out. Brooke helped me make the cute fruit turkey. We ate too much, visited lots and had a great Thanksgiving. Hope all of yours was great too!!

I've been tagged!!
I was tagged by Larissa. This one is a little different from the other one I did so I will be sharing more info for those who want to know.
Here's how it works:
A. The rules of the game are posted at the beginning.
B. Each player lists 6 little-known facts/habits about themselves.
C. At the end of the post, the player then tags 6 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog.
1. I have really horrible initials!!! My name is Amy Suzanne. Isn't that great! So I use my initials for nothing!!! Dodd's are LDS, so unfair! So when Dodd and I first got married my sister told me I should make a big poster for our new apartment that says LDS loves ASS. I also had no problem giving my daughter the initials of BS because I have it worse!
2. I am the worst speller in the world!!! And on top of that I have really bad handwriting. I would be so screwed if it weren't for computers where everything is typed and spell checked!!!
3. I worked at the Ojai Valley Inn for a while as a hostess (with the mostest) in the restaurant and got to seat Oprah and Bill Paxton (not together).
4. I don't like complainers! I think of myself as a highly capable person in most situations. I am busy, I have lots of kids and I can handle it! My mother-in-law likes to call me a pioneer which I don't think completely fits, since I love modern conveniences, had epidurals with all 3 kids and drive an SUV not a horse. I just don't want to be a wimp and complain! I get this from my mom (another highly capable woman).
5. I have a degree from Cal State Northridge. It is in Liberal Studies because I was going to be an elementary school teacher. Maybe someday!
6. I hate airplanes!! If I never go on one again that would be just fine with me! There is something not right about flying through the sky in a metal tube!!
So I guess I get to tag more people. If Rachel, Tammy, Emily, Leslie, Teresa, and Valerie want to that would be fine. No pressure!

Moranda Park


Yesterday I took the kids and Jesse to this cool park in Port Hueneme. I saw it on Tara's blog and had to take my kids to feed the ducks. There is a playground, but the ducks were the best. Jake loved it when the ducks would fight over his bread and would laugh hysterically at them. Kelsey's favorite thing was chasing all of the ducks. I am lucky she didn't end up in the yucky water!! We did look for a geocache at the park but couldn't find it!! That really makes me mad! Over all is was a very nice trip and I am sure we will be back!

Our Trip to Disneyland
Last Thursday we took the kids to Disneyland. We had so much fun! Dodd's parents went with us which was nice because Grandpa was our own personal photographer the whole day. I don't think I used my camera at all!! The drive down was so slow due to all the traffic. Then Brooke got sick so we had to pull over to help her. We were so happy to finally make it there!! The kids were so brave and went on everything. I was surprised they even liked the Matterhorn! They loved it and are still talking about it.

Happy Halloween!


We had a great time last night for Halloween. We all dressed as a cave family except for Brooke who wanted to be a witch! Dodd really enjoyed dragging me around by my hair!! What a caveman!! Jake had a Dash costume from the Incredibles but changed his mind last minute when he saw us and Kelsey all dirty. Our neighborhood goes crazy for Halloween. There were literally hundreds of kids. My neighbor said she stopped counting last year at 350 kids. I am sure I spent more than $60 just on candy, and we had to turn off lights and tell people we were out at 9:00. Dodd's parents and brother, my sister Tammy and her family and one family from our ward came over for the fun. It was great and I can't wait for next year!!
