WAY OVER DUE...

Things have been CRAZY around here for a LONG time! So I thought it might be time to update for those who still read this!

**Well the most exciting news is that in about 8 weeks we will have a new baby boy to add to the Norton Family** Kinzie was not thrilled about being the only girl, but has realized that there are some benefits to being the only princess around...like having your own room...get pedicures with mom...so she has definitely warmed up to the idea:)

**We put our house on the market about two months ago and have had quite a few people look at it, but I think people are scared with the economy being crazy...but rates are at an ALL time low...so if anyone knows anyone who needs are cute little home...**

**Adam is still working at the Credit Union, but he now works in the Mortage Department**

**I am no longer in the classroom at ACA, but helping out in the office a couple days a week**

**The kids are doing great in school**

We are anxiously awaiting for our new little man to arrive, but want him to hang in there as long as possible!

I really don't have any other news or pictures, but I am posting some pictures of our house! Shelley and Teresa came and spent several days with me helping me stage my house to put it on the market! If you are ever in need of a house make-over or want to stage your house or need direction in decorating...these ladies are AMAZING!! Not to mention how proud they made me feel about the "junk" I had in my house! SO AWESOME!! Definitely call them up...they are so very talented!

SATURDAY NAP

There's nothing better than taking a nap on your favorite sister!!:)

Back to School Time!!!

This is Kinzie on her first day 0f school....she is so sweet...when we dropped her off she went and sat quietly in her seat...precious!

Enjoy and I hope everyone had a great first day back...

I just love this girl!!!

"What are we going to do now??" says J-man after dropping Kinzie off!

Happy Birthday to Blaze!!

Yesterday...was Blaze's first birthday! We celebrated with a family swim party! We swam and then had grilled hamburgers and cake! And of course, my camera ran out of battery(it wouldn't be a special event if this didn't happen)! I did get a few pictures! Once Blaze figured out that the gooey stuff between his fingers was actually yummy...there was no holding back! He made a GREAT mess and even got cake in Kinzie's hair!


Blaze at one month old!


Blaze at 12 months old!

"Blowing out the candle"

ACA Graduation was Wednesday evening and the theme was 50's!! Just a few pictures to capture the evening...it was weird not watching Kinzie on stage!

Blaze not to happy...but he sure looked cute!

SCHOOL'S OUT FOR SUMMER

Well at least for me and the boys...Wednesday was our last day of school! After a great program, we are ready for summer! So ready in fact the boys have decided to let their hair go wild...

Kinzie not so much...she still has a week of school left!!

AAWWWW

Just a quick update...to let blog land know that my sister...Charla...is now engaged!! Jared (husband to be) asked her this morning in his apartment! Apparently, he is pretty smooth and very romantic! From what I understand (it was hard to get all of the details between the screams of excitement) Charla and Jared have breakfast every Tuesday morning at Starbucks...well when she went to pick him up this morning...he told her he was running late and to just come up to his apartment! Jared got up really early and with a buddy went to Starbucks and got the chairs, table, breakfast and coffee and set them up in his apartment...so when Charla walked in she saw the whole set up and the ring!!! AAWWW too sweet! They already have a date Dec. 19th 2009!! AWESOME!!
