The biggest party EVER! AKA Mavs win the championship

This was the crowd to get in! Our friends had been waiting in line for an hour in 100 degree heat! Thanks Chris and Laura!!=) It was like this at every entrance with the lines wrapping around the building!

Keith and I got to be a part of history this past sunday when we went to the American Airlines Center in Dallas for the Mavs playoff watching party! It was AWESOME!!! The tickets were $5 and sold out in 3o minutes. The seats were first come first serve but really all the seats were good. The concessions were open and the mavs dancers and the maniacs were there to add to the entertainment. We had SO much fun especially because in the end the Mavs beat the heat! HAHAHAHAHA!!! Most of you know that Keith and I are Bulls fans but since the bulls were out we decided to cheer for whoever was gonna be against the heat. We are now also Mavs fans too! What an awesome game and experience! I am posting some videos and a few pics please dont laugh at my screaming! lol It was insanely loud in there and I didnt really think I was as loud as I was! My ears were hurting at times because of how loud it was when the crowd would

cheer.

Disney world

Im finally uploading pics from our disney trip! We had a wonderful time and learned a lot! First of all NEVER take 5 small children to disney parks for 4 days in a row! They just cant handle it! The adults cant either! heehee! We happened to be there during record breaking cold but by the end of the week it was nice so that is why we are bundled up in some pics and not in the others! Walt Disney is really great at making it easy for special needs. We were given a pass that allowed us to basically bypass lines and use our stroller as a "wheel chair" so that Jada would be able to have her own personal space and stay in it during shows and parades if she wanted! She had a great time but I also learned that rides that involve being in the dark even if its not scary for us is kind of scary for children with sensory issues. Her favorite rides were the outdoor rides that she could see and she loved the shows and parades. She did enjoy some indoor rides but apparently she is not a big fan of animatronics either! We visited Magic Kingdom, Epcot, and Hollywood studios. It was a great time and we hope to get back with Keith's parents next time!

Im baaaaaaack!

Meet the newest member of our family - Jet! He is a lab mix that we rescued about a month ago! He is actually 3 times this size now! Yikes!
Jace started playing select baseball - the best part is his team has about 4 boys that he has been playing with since he was 3! Great chemistry already! =)

So I am really bad at this! I just dont take much time to sit at the computer so I have not been making time to update! Sorry about that! Now that school is out things should be less hectic! Everyone is good on this end! Jace is now 8! REALLY CRAZY! He is going into the 3rd grade! He did really well in school this year and we kept him super busy playing lots of sports! Jada has been improving by leaps and bounds praise the Lord! She will be starting kindergarten in the fall! Also Crazy! I plan to celebrate for an entire week that I will finally have both kids in school all day! woooohoooo! =) Keeping the update short and sweet - now for some cute!!!

The connect

We recently sold our wii and got an xbox with the connect. If you are not familiar with the connect it has a camera system that allows you and you alone to be the controller. Is this fun and entertaining you ask? Check out these videos! The first is of Chris and Keith doing the sprint event on the Kinnect sports game! Pretty funny! The second is of the girls Abby and Jada dancing to Poison by Bell Biv Devo also very funny and cute. I saved the best for last - the boys dancing to Lady gaga poker face. I still cry - like literally tears streaming down my face every time I watch this one!! The video is a little shaky cuz I was laughing so hard when it was happening! Dont worry you will be able to hear that in the background! lol Enjoy!!

oops!

the video about the disney surprise is actually the post before the explanation of what we did! My bad!!!=)

Here is what we did this weekend! We surprised the kids with a box from "santa" that had a note inside with disney characters pictures that said "We'll see you soon". It went very well as you will see. The excited screaming lasted for at least 30 minutes!! LOL and Jace said to me "I am NOT gonna be able to sleep tonight! I can tell you that!!" LOL

We are going to Disney with our friends Chris and Laura and their 3 kids Kaleb, Elijah and Abby. For those of you who dont know - Laura and I met while we were pregnant with our first children on a website called due date buddies. We instantly became friends and our boys were born 2 days apart. Elijah and Jada are ironically only about 4 months apart. So we got to be prego together twice! They tried to get us on board for round 3 but we went ahead and passed on that one! lol

Chris and Laura are both very talented and creative with electronics!! Laura created the beautiful letter from santa and the trivia game which you can see in the video. Her husband Chris created the movie of what went down. It was so much fun to get this all together and see the excitement after they figured it out! I cant wait to see how they react when they actually get there!!=)

The video is in the next post!!
