The Bates Family: January 2009
http://batesfamdamily.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
My life with 1 redneck, 4 kids, 7 chickens, 5 fish,2 frogs, and a dog named sally. Friday, January 23, 2009. For all you nags out there, thank you for bugging me enough to get me to post our Disneyland pictures. For Christmas this year we took our kids to Disney land. We spent three days there and one and a half at the beach. January was the best time to go. We had NO lines, cheep hotels, cheep gas, and it was in the 80's! Awesome slot canyon in Snow Canyon. He was scared of almost all of the characters.

I'm never going to be on time with my posts, deal with it! I brought Zack's class 28 cups of dirt with worms. The kids were excited, but some girls said "we have to dig through dirt to get the gummy worms." It was just chocolate pudding with ground up oreo's. And a gummy worm. Easy, but really yummy. Zack was so happy when I brought in the trays.

We really have had a full and fantastic summer. Here are a few of the highlights. All of the kids had a blast! I love the pout! Abbey, me and the boys all had...

They invited all of the Veterans of Wellsville. Who came in full dress. The kids sang each of the armed forces songs and the veterans of those stood and were honored. It totally made me cry especially during the air force song (because of my Gramps. Brandon kept asking me why we were there and why do they keep singing about America? Earl and N...

Porter didn't understand it was his birthday, but his brothers and sister were very excited for the big day. My mom and dad drove up from Spanish fork with cousin's Jackson and Tyler. Earl's mom and dad,Gary and Becky, came over and so did Emily and Pete. Porter was a little. Intimidated by the attention, but loved his presents. He looks drunk with cake.
