10. Ten loads of laundry
9. Cleaned 9 closets
8. Put down 8 bags of mulch in Plant bed (Ashley asked why I kept calling it a flower bed when there were no flowers.
7. Cleaned out the garage with all 7 of us working. Ok Kinamo and I worked and the kids played.
6. Signed the contract to put our house on the market in 6 days.
5. Five happy, energetic kids to play with.
4. Four days of swim team and fun in the sun.
3. Three friends went to lunch and got pedicures.
2. Read good books. I finished "Ten Thousand Splendid Suns" so good but heartbreaking to read. Little Kinamo read the 3rd Harry Potter in one day.
1. One daddy came home for a four day weekend. We really miss him all week.

Gross!! Are you really going to eat that?

Lastnight we took the kids to their favorite restaurant "China Harbor". Kinamo Jr. and Karley picked out the squid. Kinamo and I totally lost our appetite, but they loved them. Karley eat three while Kinamo Jr. only eat the one.

Hey look is that Tony Parker?

That's not Tony, Kinamo is much better looking. Kinamo and I love the Spurs and enjoy going to the games to watch them play. I also love when Kinamo doesn't shave for a few days and has the "Tony Parker" look.

Just like my big brother

Kinamo loves to play DS. Joey loves to do what his big brother does. They are so cute.

Look who's 35

I turned 35 and had a fabulous day. The kid's gave me a great back rub with a little dog pile to top it off. Then once they went to bed my friends gave me a PJ party. What dear friends I have.

Let the Summer begin

After a very busy week of Kinder graduation, Fifth grade graduation, Third grade party and end of Pre-school we can finally welcome summer.

Last Day Of School

Kinamo's Fifth Grade Class

Karly and Mrs. Galvan

Haley's Field Day

I can not believe how fast time flies. I am sure it was just last year Kinamo Jr. started Kinder and now he is leaving elementary school behind and moving on to Middle school. He is so pumped up with moving on up to Lopez Middle school. He is a smart boy who excels in school and will no doubt be very successful in the years ahead.

Haley had a rough start to her third grade year. She was in a class with a lot of kids who need discipline. Haley has a very sweet heart and does not like to be yelled at. She soon realized she was not getting in trouble when the rest did and so ended up really growing and learning so much this year.

Karley loved Kinder and her teacher. She is reading and loves to grab a book and read to anyone that is willing to listen

Our First Home

We bought our first home March 2007. This has been a wonderful place for our family to enjoy and call ours.

To Higher Heights

Kinamo Williams, who ended up as Candy’s zone leader in Puerto Rico, says he hadn’t been totally solid in the Church until he arrived at the academy. “Seeing all the examples around me changed everything. Committing to serve Jesus Christ full time became a simple choice.”
The LDS institute program was also a key to maintaining spirituality, Kinamo said. “Monday was always one of my best days at the academy, because we had the opportunity to go to institute, to feast on the words of the Lord Jesus Christ and get the spiritual strength to go on.”
