Our Little Actress:)

Jocelyn is at such a fun age right now. She has become my little buddy. People tell me all the time that we should get her into acting. Well against my better judgement my sweet hubby convinced me to put her into a class we found an lds run company called "Hollywood Kids Academy" and for 10.00 bucks she get 20min of vocal lessons, 20min of acting and 20 min of technical ballet every friday. Her teacher is actually one of the girls in the ward who i happen to visiting teach. Mrs. Joelle. Miss Joelle is fabulous she has been on broadway and has been on "who's line is it anyways" and won 100,000 grand. She is amazing and jocelyn is having so much fun. Every month they learn a new fairy tale and at the end of the month they perform it. Her 1st performance was this week and they did cinderella. She did awesome and was not shy (i know that, that comes as a huge surprise ha ha). Jocelyn also still does tap and jazz class once a week with Mrs. Lori and we could not love her more. Jocey also loves hanging out with my young women every wednesday night. She helped me cook my young women dinner and went halloween shopping with us. She is like our class mascot and my young women just love her.

Getting in the Halloween Spirit

So today i was determined to at least pretend i was a good mom and get in the holiday spirit. So the day started off with getting Jocey ready for school after we ate breakfast. She was so impressed with her cute hair and outfit that she just had to pose for the camera (she is histarical) while i was getting her ready apprently i didn't feed Bella enough because she strolled in with a loaf of french bread that she had helped herself to. Then after Jocey got home from school we had lunch and watch monsters and aliens the movie together. Then we painted pumpkins. They both loved it but bella ended up painting herself more then the pumpkin she didnt like the paint getting on her fingers so she would wipe them off on her shirt except i took her shirt off so by the end her chest and belly were covered in paint. Then before dinner we made our dessert of traditional carmel apples and popcorn. They loved making that . They both have developed a love for cooking and cook with me every day it definately slows me down and I cant get stuff done as quick, but so fun to do with my little mommies in training. It was a good day. Love it.

Just Another Sunday Morning.

Sunday mornings are our families favorite. We wake up very slowly and hang out in bed laughing and talking. Daddy often tells some dramatic made up fairy tale to the girls. Then the girls and I usually make dad a big sunday breakfast (french toast and bacon is the girls favorite). Then we slowly start getting ready after we ate breakfast in bed as a family. I know you are thinking i am crazy, syrup in my bed with a 4 and 1 yr old but what can i say at least i am making memories right??? Bella-Reese thought she would help get herself ready and laid down in my bed and proceeded to apply her mascara, not bad for a 1 yr old. This sunday was especially special because we went to mesquite to see cousin "Cooper Donald Jensen" be blessed. Dad was in the blessing circle and Cooper is now grandpa dons favorite since he is his namesake. of course i forgot my camera like an idiot. you can go to debbyleavitt.com and see coop's newborn pictures he is beautiful.

My baby is 4!!!!!

Angelique and Ainsley Hartsell

They loved Chucky on stage but not when he tried to come mingle. Bella loved him so much she climbed up on stage with chucky and started dancing it was awesome.

Jocelyn Really enjoyed her cupcake or at least every last morsel of icing:)


Jocey and Her best friend Ellie Wroble. They could not be more opposite from each other and yet play so well together. Jocelyn is crazy outgoing, energtic, spontaneous, where ellie is totally type a, calm and follows the rules to a "T". I love that jocey has such great friends already.

Bella was fearless and wanted to ride every ride. The crazier and the more the ride moved the better. It was worth every penny.

Trev was so thrilled to be a the grimmy germ infested kid wonderland:) He is such a good sport.

Ruby Jane another one of Jocey's sweet and calm friends. Ruby was so cute she was so sad that all the seats were taken by jocey by other kids so simple solution she had joce share a seat with her. I love it.

It isn't a party with out ballons:)
