CLAYTON TURNS 6!!!!

CLAYTON RYAN BOYDSTON
MY 6 YEAR OLD

Since I decided to not do partys this year we started a new tradition with the cards which hold exciting activities to do through out the day. Since Clayton had school he only got 4 cards instead of 6 but still a fun day.

CARDS:

1. Breakfast at McDonalds

2. New outfit, I am so glad that my kids like to get new clothes!!!

Then he was off to school, his teacher, Mrs. Taylor, makes each birthday child feel special. He received a hat and a bag of treats and I also brought cookies for his class to enjoy.

3. Clayton then got money to spend. We went to target and he picked out a toy.

4. The last and most fun card was bowling with family and friends. He got to invite a couple of friends and we all went bowling.

We all had a lot of fun. It's hard to believe that I have a 6 year old. I am starting to feel old!!!

ULTA GRAND OPENING!!

Fresno just got a ULTA, a store that is dedicated to all products for hair, face, body, you name it they got it. I went to the grand opening where they handed out gift certificates, anywhere from $5 to $100. Of course I got the $5 one but hey free $5 is better than nothing. So with my gift certificate, coupon and the Grand Opening Deals I spent $7 and I was able to get a Revlon hair dryer, Sebastian hairspray, Ulta brand eye shadow, Back to Basics conditioner, Ulta brand lotion and a sample bottle of Artec hair sculptor. I haven't tried them all but the conditioner, hair spray and hair dryer is amazing. I love Grand Openings!!!

I AM FINALLY AN AUNT!!!!!

ELLA ROSE BOYDSTON- 4TH BIRTHDAY

ELLA TURNED 4!!!

Ella woke up to balloons, presents and six cards. I didn't want to throw another birthday party so i decided to make a day of fun for her. I made six cards, she got to open them up one at a time and each card had an activity for her to do.

1st card- We went and got donuts for breakfast.

2nd card- Getting dressed which was one of her presents, a new outfit

3rd card- $30 falling out of the card and we were off to Toys r Us for some toy fun

4th card- Lunch time, she chose to go to Chuckie Cheese

5th card- Movie time with Dad and Clayton. (mom took Cade home for a nap)

6th card- Dinner and cake with family

She seemed to have a lot of fun and wanted more cards to open. Clayton says he wants his cards on his birthday.

1st Day Of Nursery

18 MONTHS

Cade is finally in nursery. No more walking the halls the whole 3 hours. He seemed to have a good time, he went in there really easy. I forgot to mention our church doesn't start until 1pm so he was already tired. He then realized he was left and started to cry, he eventually fell asleep. When he woke up he started to cry again. When we picked him up he was crying but he didn't cry the first minute. I just need to figure out how to get him a nap before church.
These pics are the best I can get, Cade kept trying to grab the camera!

IT'S OFFICIAL...

THE FINAL BOYDSTON SCORE

BOYS- 3 GIRLS- 1

Christmas... is it already over!!!

A Boydston Christmas

We had a great christmas, we have had a great break. I can't believe two weeks has come and gone. We started out christmas with celebrating Christmas Eve with Roberts Grandma, grandpa and cousins. We had a great turkey dinner then our gift exchange Robert received a gift card and I got a pretty sweater.

We continued our Christmas Eve celebration at my parents house where my mom attempted to have the kids dress up and perform the story of the birth of baby Jesus. Well that didn't go over to well but we got the point. Cade was a great angel!!! We opened up one gift that night, Cade got some awesome rollerblades from my sister and her husband. I don't think the read the age recommendations but he still loves them and he wears them as long as he stays on the carpet.

We finally got the kids to bed and they woke up to a great Christmas morning. Nothing like chocolate and candy for breakfast. The kids opened up all the presents, they had a blast. My family came over for my traditional Christmas breakfast. After breakfast we headed over to my parents house for more presents. My brother got a Wii and Rock Band 2 and my kids loved

playing with him.

Christmas was amazing and I am so happy to be able to spend it with my family and to remember the true meaning of Christmas.
