Sunday evening we met at John & Marrianne's house for a delicious "Mexican Feast", to celebrate the California March Birthdays: Carnell 88, Madison 9, and Ashlyn 2. 
Madison got to choose the menu of taco/burrito bar. And for dessert we had Apricot Pie with ice cream....hmmmm delicious!
After dinner Madison, Brooke, and Melanie played "Princess U-no" with me. Very nice evening.

Date Night
We went with some of our friends here at the apartment, for dinner and a movie. We just wanted a clean, fun, crazy movie that would make us laugh...and this did. Lots of slap stick humor with a good moral and also brought back some memories of taken our own children to college. [Thanks Ben and Ruth for the AMC tickets]

Who is really man's best friend?
If you think you know who man's best friend is, try locking your wife and your dog in the trunk of your car; wait two hours - then open it. Guess who is happiest to see you.

"Grand Award" For Best Cake
For Nate's Cub Scout Blue and Gold Dinner, the boys were asked to make a cake with their Dads. The theme was "Chinese New Year" [the year of the dragon], so this was where they started. They also decided to make it a 3D cake. Great job Nate & Matt!
Day 3 With The Twins
Rachel is sound asleep and Jordyn is blowing kisses.
[From Matt] We'll we made it home. Rachal and Jordyn can't seem to get enough lovin' from their brother and sisters. Or maybe brother and sisters can't get enough lovin' from Rachel and Jordyn. Either way everyone is sitting in a circle, passing the girls around and getting lots of hugs and kisses.
Now what?????

SPEAKING OF MIRACLES.....
Rachel came out first about noon today but Little Jordyn didn't want to come out and play. The doctors weren't taking "later" as an option. So feet first she entered this world. She had her Mom and Dad praying like crazy. So here's the official stats. Rachel Lynn, 3/7/08 at 12:05 pm weighing in at 5 lbs. 12 oz.19 1/4 in. long. Jordyn Leigh, 3/7/08 at 1:15 pm weighing in at 6 lbs. 10 oz.19 3/4 in. Both are healthy, and so cute.
NATE...BIG BROTHER! One thing for sure...he won't have to worry about sharing his room, with four sisters.
Christa and Jenna have two real baby dolls to play with...just a little excited!
That makes a total of 23 grandchildren with two more on the way. Girls ahead, 15 to 8.
