!!!Happy Hanukkah!!!

Jake and Sami spent the night with Bubi and Zada Friday the 16th of December and Saturday Jeff and I went over to celebrate Hanukkah with the family. Bubi Maui, Aunt Susie and Uncle Marvin came over and Jamie was in town from college so she was able to celebrate with us as well. The kids had a great time and raked in on the Hanukkah presents!! We had a nice dinner and nice visit with every one. We wish everyone else could have been there as well, but they were there in spirit!!
Thank you everyone for the great Hanukkah gifts! We love you all and HAPPY HANUKKAH!!

Jake wanted Christmas to come early!!

So, I get a call from Heather saying she woke up to see Jake opening his Christmas gifts that I put under the tree!! He got most of them opened when she caught him. He sure is sneaky!! Hopefully he will have some suprises on Christmas morning! I hear Santa is bringing him something good so we will see!!

We are getting excited about the holidays and are happy we get to
spend time with family this year! This will be Sami's first Christmas also so that should be fun as well!!

I am off work from December 22 - December 27th. WOO HOO! 5 day weekend sounds good to me!!

Well, if I don't post more before the Holidays, MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HANUKKAH TO ALL!!!

Jake's 4th Birthday

Our baby boy is 4 years old! His party was a success and he had a great time and he raked in a lot of presents! He is spoiled rotten, hehe.
Everyone was there, his Grandma and Grandpa Cooksey came early and surprised him with a big horse. Jake wants cowboy boots and a hat as well now haha.

Nana and Papa were there, Bubbi and Zada brought Bubbi Maui too. Uncle Buckeye and Aunt Jessie and cousin Ethan came too, all the way from Wisconsin! It was great to see them and Jake loved playing with Ethan.

Robin, Mike, Jamie and Josh came and Jake played with Josh outside for a while on his new rock climbing wall. Aunt Kay, Aunt Barb, Uncle Greg and Brett came over too.

Jake had a wonderful birthday with all the people he loves and love him. Thanks everyone for everything, and Jake thanks you too!!

Circus Fun

My mother and I took Jake to the circus on December 3rd and boy what a treat that was!! We ended up all being a part of the circus! We got to dance and ride a train around the circus arena. It was a blast, I am not sure who had more fun, the adults or Jake! I felt like a kid again hehe. Jake was amazed the whole time, he laughed, clapped and the clowns kept coming up to him giving him 5 and playing with him. We had front row center ring tickets and the view was awesome!
This ended Jake's 4th Birthday bash week haha. Such a big boy he is now!

Welcome to our first blog

And wish me luck! It is I, Jennifer Gutter attempting to introduce my family to the world and figure out the world of "blogging".

We are a family of 4, Jeff, my husband, Jennifer, myself, Jake our son, and Sami our daughter. We have 2 cats Chloe and Sassy and our little Bichon Frise, Princess Jasmine.

That is about it for now. I have nothing more to say at this time. I am just testing this out to see if I am even doing it right.
