Monster Truck Jam


Last weekend we took the boys to the Monster Truck Jam!


The trucks were really huge and super loud! We had such a fun time! The boys loved it! They knew most of the trucks from the toy monster trucks they own. Their favorite was one called "Grave Digger".


Here is Griffin, Trevor, and Brenden. We were so glad our cousins could go with us! Thanks, Grandma, for the cool shirts you got all of us! We looked really good!


Tyson just loves Griffin! He held his hand every chance he could. I looked over during the show and saw Ty rubbing Griffin's back! Sweet boys!

25 Random Things about Jill



This is a "Facebook" thing that many people are doing. My sister wanted me to post my list on the blog because even she learned something about me she didn't know! I'll have Adam and the boys work on their list to share with you next!

25 Random Things about Jill:

1. I'm a Christian and I'm grateful.
2. I've been deeply in love with Adam for over 21 years! I've been married to my best friend for over 13 years.
3. Both of my boys are truly medical miracles and precious gifts from God.
4. I talk to my sister at least twice a day, sometimes more. :-)
5. I refuse to eat any and all seafood...because of the eyes...
6. I have dual citizenship. I was born in England.
7. I could eat Mexican food every single day and never get sick of it!
8. My brain is constantly thinking of home improvement projects, renovations, and decorating ideas. I always have a project in the works!
9. I don't know how to dive. I wish I could!
10. I am a great bargain shopper. I can find anything on clearance!
11. I dislike hazelnut or raspberry flavored stuff.
12. Turtlenecks gag me...literally. You will never see me wear one.
13. My family is the most important thing in the world to me. Nothing else really matters.
14. The loss of our triplets changed everything. Not a day goes by that we don't wish we had them back.
15. I have the most profound thoughts and creative ideas when I'm taking a shower or brushing my teeth.
16. I got a 4.0 in college, but I was an average student in high school. I wish I would have tried harder, asked more questions, and cared about school.
17. I'm a clean/organizing/germ freak.
18. I LOVE the beach. I always have!
19. I would much rather eat the cookie dough than the cookies.
20. If I am out of coffee or hairspray, I panic. I need both every single day.
21. I run/walk 5 miles a day on the treadmill. (The health benefits are nice, but the real reason is so I can watch the shows I've tivo-ed or tune out the world and jam on my ipod!)
22. I'm so thankful for the lasik eye surgery I had so that I do not need glasses or contacts anymore!
23. I love to harmonize to songs. In our van, the radio is always on, LOUD, and the kids and I sing our hearts out! Even the kids who carpool with us join in on the fun!
24. I wish I could play a musical instrument REALLY well. If I was forced to be in a talent show, I don't know what I would do! I really don't have any "talent". This bothers me.
25. I love to substitute teach at Tyson's preschool. It reminds me to slow down, laugh at silly things, share with others, take turns, and try your best, even if it seems too hard. It also reminds me that the days are long, but the years are short!
