We have been everywhere and back!!! Or so it seems! We had a KungFu Panda birthday party for Thomas and he had Auntie Jessica do the invitations!! Which were awesome!!! He had a sleep-over at Gramma and Grampa's house with five 8 year old boys!! We started with a few games until I got home and then on to Chineese Noodle Soup and Quesidillas. We started the movie and had Kung Fu Panda Cupcakes and ice-cream since one of the boys had to go home for the night. Then they played with his gifts and ball shooters from the party and put on the Panda tatoos. Next am we had Bisquits and Gravy. Then all but David had to go home. Thomas had a Basketball game and David got to go with us. He does pretty well in the game just needs to be a bit more aggressive!!
Friday Feb 13 at 6:30 Ron and I went to KKLZ's Valentine's Wedding Vows contest at the JW Marriot. I wore Lori's wedding dress and Ron wore his suit and Jennifer went with us. We had hoped to win the Week-end get away and Dinner and a bunch spa treatments and the whole thing. But we didn't win we still had a great time anyway. Just a very early morning start with a free champagne Breakfast and a Photographer. The works. We won a few spa treatments and goodies.
Jennifer Thomas and I went to Mesa on the 21 for a surprise visit with his Gramma Chicken and his Father. We left arrived in Mesa at the baseball field where we met Beckie and Brian and Don Greenley came over to see Thomas. Then we called Gramma and had them come to Denny's to surprise Thomas. Surprise we did to bad we didn't have a video camera it was precious. I think he kind of went into shock as Gramma came up behind him and started invading his space and he looked around to see who was there. Then he turned back to the table and all of a sudden he swirled around and jumped up and grabbed her and sat back down and just sat there in a daze. I think the last person he expected to see in Mesa!!! It was awesome. He got to spend the rest of the week-end with them. 
The next day we went to Olive Garden with Beckie and Don met us again. He insisted on paying, but I was going to get the check so he put in his mouth and chewed it up and took his glass to wash it down, when he sat it back on the table it just broke off the stem. Quite funny. then we went over to hie new house. Looks like it will be pretty nice after all his remodeling Quite a bit of thought and work ahead!! Then Jen and I went over to the Groscost's to Jill's shower. It was awesome to see them and Jen left me there to spend the night. Catherine and I went to the movies "Twilight" and reminisced about it not being the real "FORKS." Sunday we went to church and had dinner with Dana and her family. They live in the house Ken and Catherine built before they left Mesa. What a beautiful home and a lot of reminiscing and good ole fun. We left way to late to come home so it was 3:10 and Ron was getting up for work. 
Then Alyssa and Sage flew in on the same day we got home from Mesa. It was so awesome to get to see them. Way to short of a time and way to many appointments to make while they were here. They stayed with us on Mon. night and we had John, Julie, AnnJanette, and Mason over to dinner, everyone was here before I got home from work. What a crazy time. Then Alyssa and Sage stayed the next two nights with them. Maddison was running a fever and had a awful cough until the last day before they left, so needless to say she and Lori didn't get so see much of them at all. Thurs. evening we went to the M&M factory so Alyssa could show Sage the M&M's. Then she and Jen went to Stoney's with a bunch of the girls from the Singles Ward and had a ball dancing. They got home at 2:30 and up at 5:30 to head to the airport. Way to fast for me for sure. Sage has grown up so much and she was singing her little songs from school and so sweet.
Wish they weren't so far away.
