well, I realized how long it had been since I had posted on here when I logged on and Ali's name is not in the title! ah! I am really bad at remembering that I have a blog, so getting to it is even more difficult.Life is busy, busy! I am staying at home with our 3 kiddos. Yes, 3 now. Caydence is almost 6, Colton is 2 1/2 and Alali is 10 months. She was born December 20th 2010. We named her Alali Joslin Our lives are full! Caydence started Kindergarten this year at Rimrock Elementary and she loves it! Her teacher is great and she just really loves going to school and playing with the kids. She is already showing how much she is learning. I am so proud of her! They do a reward program called ROAR awards (respect, ownership, attitude, and responsibility) She comes home quite often with a little white slip that makes me so proud of her! David is working at MyWireless still, he is traveling quite a bit because he is a sales training supervisor now and he gets to cover several stores out of town. It has been challenging at times but the Lord has blessed us! Colton is a 2 year old boy for sure! He is running crazy all the time! He likes to keep me on my toes. Ali Jo is crawling and almost walking! We are looking forward to the Holidays, but for now, enjoying the fall season!

I am really bad about updating this blog but am hoping that my new year resolution of improving on this will last!
We are so excited to announce the birth of our baby girl Alali Joslin on December 20 2010. She came quickly and we are so blessed to have her as our new addition in our family. Colton is loving her already and Caydence is so excited to have a new little sister! Every day our kids make us smile and bring joy into our lives we are very excited for this new year to begin soon -after Christmas- and to see what it entails! Our Christmas this year is very special because of our new arrival, Colton is so much fun right now and because Caydence is 5 and very excited about Santa Claus! She sat on his lap twice and both times told him she wanted the Olivia playset. This was a challenge because no store in town had it in stock and even online it was almost non existant unless we paid 3 times the normal price. But we are fortunate to have a friend who knows the true spirit of Christmas and happened to be in AZ where there was one Olivia playset left at a Barnes and Noble. Hesaw my distress call on Facebook and picked it up for us and brought it home for her. I am so thankful to be able to fulfill that gift for our Caydence since it was the only thing she told Santa she wanted!
Although Colton is small still he is a wonderful present ripper and we are very excited to see the joy on Christmas morning unfold!
Caydence turned 5 on the 5th of December this year and had a little birthday party with a few friends! They played games and had a pinata. It was fun to see the kids play together.
As David and I reflect on this season we are so greatful for the blessings of family. We are greatful for the loving relationships that we have surrounding us as examples and for the joy that they bring into our lives as well as our childrens. We are very greatful to be celebrating the birth of our saviour and to do so with so much to be thankful for this year and every year!

There is a lot of busy stuff going on in our house! Well, Mike and Terri's house anyhow! Caydence is growing and she is so much fun! She makes us laugh everyday and is a real challenge for us at times as well. She is so determined and she loves to make David and I work! Colton is 3 months now and the other day he giggled and giggled it was so cute! He has already rolled over and looks like he might be an early crawler! He is so much more fun now that he feels better! David and I have been working out together and it has been a fun way for us to spend time together! David and I are trying to be mroe active this summer and do more things outside, like biking and hiking! I have found a new appreciation for cooking and I am constantly looking for recipes everywhere i go! I also decided to venture out and try selling Avon. I have really grown to love sojme of their products and it is fun to see some of the new stuff they have to offer! If anyone is interested let me know I will get them a catalog or they can go to youravon.com and let me know what products they like!

On March 16 we welcomed our bew baby boy Colton to our family. He is so precious and we are blessed to get to have him in our family. Caydence is so excited to have a baby brother. She is such a good helper and loves to be in the middle of everything that Colton needs. David is enjoying playing basketball again and I am working on finding time! Cayd and Colton are a lot of fun but a lot of work!
