Oh Jackson! You make me laugh

I was talking with my mom this evening and we were talking about some of the crazy things that Jackson says. And we remembered this one particular incident that still to this day makes me giggle. Here is how it went. My mom had come over to our old house to help me do some touch up painting. We need some sort of supply, so my mom said she would run over to walmart quickly and grab it. Of course Jackson wanted to go with her because he always comes home with a treat when Grandma takes him. So I said he could go with her, but it was going to be a very quick trip and no treats! I even told my mom "don't buy him anything, the kids have a million toys and don't need anything else. No treats!"
So my mom told me when they got in the car on the way to walmart Jackson said to her "You know Grandma Becky, when my mom said no treats, well you don't really have to listen to her because you're HER mom."

And then another time just before Christmas he was acting up and I told him he better be careful because Santa Clause could see him. And he said "No he can't mom. He SEES me when I'm sleeping, but he only KNOWS when I'm awake."
With Jackson around life is never dull. He is always cracking us up.

Autographs from the Jazz

We went to the Jazz game last night and we decided to go early and let the kids go down close to the court during warm ups and see if they could get any autographs. And we were successful!! Trevon, Madison, Jackson and Tanner each got autographs from Ronnie Brewer, Ronnie Price, CJ Miles and Madison's favorite, Kyle Korver.

This is Jackson right after Ronnie Brewer signed his basketball.

I love this picture of Kyle Korver handing Madison back her Jersey after he had signed it. It makes me smile because she totally has a little crush on Kyle.

I am pretty sure this is Ronnie Price handing back Jackson's basketball.

CJ Miles signing autographs.

This is CJ Miles signing Trevon's pendent.

Rockband

What an adorable rockband. The boys were on the guitars, Madison was on the drums, and Katie and Taylor were the singers. It was fun to watch them. They rocked while the moms and dads watched the Jazz game. (which they lost to the Clippers!!)


Singing lead in a rockband can wear a girl out. This is how I found her in her room later that night.

HD

This evening the kids and I were trying to find something to watch on TV. So I was flipping through the menu and found Disney Pixar Cars. I said "Oh how about we watch cars?" and Jackson asked " Is it in HD mom?"
Didn't I tell you he was a miniature Brian.

New Template

How cute is this? Thank you Jenn for showing me how to be rid of those ugly blogspot templates. And is was way easier than I thought it would be. There were so many cool ones to choose from, I might need to change it every week. Also thank you Jenn for informing me about google reader it is pretty darn cool!

The Harlem Globetrotters

Last week we went to see the Harlem Globetrotters with the Lambs. We had a really great time. We have kind of made it a tradition to go every year because Trevon gets to go once a year for FREE for the rest of his life. They had a promotion for babies born in the year 2000. We just had to register him online and now he gets to go see the Globetrotters once a year for free. Pretty cool huh?

Jackson and Tanner Best Friends Forever! Such a cute picture, I can't believe they actually smiled.

This is usually the pose I get when I take pictures of these two.

More silly faces.

I love this picture. They both look so scared!

Say CHEESE!! I know it is little blurry, but this is one of my favorites.

Wouldn't they make a cute couple? Well, in about ten years or so? I won't say anything to the kids but it would be awesome if they really did get together in the future! Madison would have the best in laws ever! And so would Trevon!

Catching Up

Finally, here is a glimpse at the Allfrey household over the past few very busy months. Like I said before, instead of writing I just posted a butt-load of pictures. Now I am all caught up and I can start my regular posts again.

If you look close, Jackson is licking the snowman. What a weirdo!

Taylor and Katie just wanted to eat the snow the whole time.

We took this picture to black mail my brother-in-law with.

Taylor's first day of dance. Such a cutie!Taylor's birthday. She turned three on January 9th.

Trevon and Jackson got to go to a Jazz basketball clinic and Morris Almond and CJ Miles were helping. Above is Jackson shooting a free throw with CJ Miles.

I missed it, but this is right after CJ Miles gave Jackson a high five. He was so excited!

Trevon shooting his free throw.

I thought it was cute, big brother watching out for the little guys

Admiring and learning from the acutal Jazz players was pretty awsome for the boys.

Here is Jackson being himself.

All three asleep on the couch.

For Christmas Brian's parents took us on a snowmobiling trip to Yellowstone. Wow, what a fantastic trip. I don't think I have ever seen that much snow in my whole life. It was gorgeous. It was a trip I will never forget!

This is old faithful right after it erutped. We missed it of course by about 30 seconds. Oh well, maybe next time.

Brian and I, Jim and Sherrie, and Bryce and Kella. The six of us had a great time!

Elk

Bald Eagle

Trevon recieved an award at school a few weeks ago. It was called the Principal's Pride award. Only two or three kids from each first grade class got one. He got it for always voluteering and being so helpful in class. Trevon is doing so well in school, we couldn't be any prouder of him and his straight A's.

What a cheeseball!

Chillin' out watching Spongebob

We have had so much snow this year it is unbelieveable.

The boys played Jr Jazz and had a blast. They have improved so much and most importantly they had fun.
