Life of An Oates: My little bakers
http://oatesfamily6.blogspot.com/2010/08/my-little-bakers.html
Tuesday, August 3, 2010. My boys love to get into things, usually resulting in a large amount of cleaning up for me. This morning I was adding flour to the large bin I have in the pantry, (normally used for baking not playing). Grady- "I baker Mom, See? Me-"Grady, what are you doing? Grady-"I building a castle". Me-"Wesley what are you doing? I guess playing in flour is fun :). Faith, that is so funny, I laughed, especially at Wesleys grin for the camera! August 3, 2010 at 12:53 PM. My Love and I.

Life of An Oates: December 2009
http://oatesfamily6.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 28, 2009. James and I try to go out on a date night at least 1x a month, sometimes it doesn't happen, sometimes it happens more often. It really hasn't been that long since we've been out, but with the bussiness of the holidays this date seemed very needed! Here's our traditional self-portrait :). Jamesy, I love you and am so very thankful to share each and every day with you. The time we spend together is amazing, I love sitting and talking with you! Thursday, December 3, 2009. The Rive...

Life of An Oates: February 2010
http://oatesfamily6.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 14, 2010. I managed to summon Grady to the door and this was the view from the garage. I love his "kissy" lips and his little eyes peaking through :) James ended up opening the door, but in the process I got a good laugh. For those of you that frequent my house often, take a look and tell me what you notice different. Yes, that's right my truck is parked in the garage! What's the big deal, you ask? It's the little things, I tell you! I am a happy woman! Thursday, February 4, 2010. So, be...

http://oatesfamily6.blogspot.com/2010/08/cliff-notes.html
Tuesday, August 3, 2010. Life is crazy around here, not for any particular reason, just the reality of having 5 kids that are involved in sports, church and homeschooling.I just can't seem to keep up with my blog. Spring has long passed and now summer nearly has too, but not without a lot of fun. Since my last post we've. Finished up our first year of homeschooling. Gone to Spirit West Coast Del Mar and had a blast. Been to Disneyland at least 5 times to use up our passes that have since expired. In a pe...

Life of An Oates: May 2010
http://oatesfamily6.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 16, 2010. Musicians in the Making. I've always wished I could play the piano. When I was a kid I took about 3 years of lessons, but as an adult I can only play the right hand and forgot most everything I learned, so I guess it is true that "you loose what you don't use." James and I both wanted the kids to play some sort of music and since our charter. Pays for music lessons and we have a piano, piano players we will have! The girls both have taken lessons from Oak Valley Music Academy. One o...

Loving Life: My Dad
http://jesshekman.blogspot.com/2008/06/my-dad.html
Tuesday, June 17, 2008. Warning, this is a LONG post. Six years ago today our lives took a sharp turn and changed very suddenly. I was 20 years old. It was three and a half weeks before our wedding, and Matt and I were out doing some shopping, picking up odds and ends for our new apartment. It was a pretty normal day. My mom was pacing around upstairs and before I had the chance to talk to her the phone rang. It was the phone call that you never ever want to get. An orderly shuffled us into a room and sa...
