Well, it has been a long and crazy year for us. As many of you know we have been in limbo for this past year between California and here. Ze spent the better part of the year going back and forth between there and here working, while we tried to decide where we should live. We thought we had reached a decision once, at the beginning of summer, to move to Cali, spent the summer there and put the house up for sale. Then, we (okay, mostly Ze) thought that maybe we should stay here after some things happened so we took our house off and he was offered a job managing and starting a division of a compnay here. We felt, that it was a pretty sure thing, however this last week things fell through and it turned out it was not going to work. So after much prayer, talking, crying (on my part) we knew it was the right thing to move to California. And so we are packing the house and selling things that we won't need there, it is bittersweet, but part of life.
It seems, that our best laid plans are always changing, and the Lord continues to guide our paths. I am going to miss all of my friends here and so will my boys. I think Drake will need therapy without Zoe, Ryker, and Kanon. And I think I will need it without them too. LOL But, most of all I will miss my family, and when I say family I mean most of all my Mom. For many of you, okay all of you here. YOU know how hard of a relationship we had while I was growing up, but now she is my best friend, and I won't know what to do without having her close to hang out with everyday. Mom, I love you and will miss you most of all. I also, what everyone to know how sure we are that this is the right thing, and that I truly feel this is the Lord's desire for us and have felt this since we first talked of moving back. To all of you in Fresno, I can't wait to see you again!!!!

Brothers we will be!!!!!!
As hard as it was to have them so close together, I am SO GRATEFUL, it happened that way. They have so much fun together and are so close. I hope that always stays and they grow up to be best friends like my sister and I. That isn't to say they don't fight because Oh, they do. But they are always there for eachother watching out. Drake is very protective of Gavin, and Gavin follows Drake everywhere and imitates everything he does. It is so much fun to watch them together. And neither one can fall asleep at night with out holding the others hand or be at least touching to know they are there for eachother. The one of Drake holding Gavin, just happened the other day, because Gavin was upset and Drake wanted to hold him to make him feel better, and when we asked Gav if he wanted to Drake to hold him he said "okay" So cute. I love my BOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Drake-My Blue Eyed Boy
Okay, so Drake is getting so big and old!! He carrys on conversations with me and is starting to think he is the Dad or Mom. The latest thing he says to me when I tell him he can't do something, is " No talka back to me mom" Or if I don't do what he wants he tells me I have to go to time out. Aren't kids a great self reflection. But, I am loving this age, he is overall listening better to me and understanding that his choices lead to either good or bad consequences. And he loves to help me cook, especially cookies. He loves to make peanut butter ones so he can smash them with the fork. His latest craze his a show called HI-5. They sing and dance to different songs based around different themes. It is fun to watch him sing the songs and dance along with them. (only if he knows I am not watching) He is also remembering them later. He LOVES LOVES LOVES going to church and nursery, and tells me all about what he did and loves to sing the songs. As much as I am loving this stage it makes me sad to know he will grow out of it soon, and just keep getting older. I wish i could just freeze him at this age. (when he is potty trained in a few weeks of course) 
GAVIN-My Browned Eyed Boy
Okay, so these are just random pics, I was going uploading our Memory Card onto the computer and decided I needed to post some pics of the boys, for those of you who don't see them very often. These were my favorites!!! Let's see the one below is of gavin who climed up onto his windo seal so he could listen to the music, and change the CD. The one with pacifier is just one I loved because you can see those big brown eyes, and KNOW he is thinking up something!!!! And Last, but not least the HAT!!! Yes this is how Gavin came to me one morning wearing this hat my mom had bought me in Italy with a big box of ceral, woke me up and said " i wan cere al please." Gavin is very into wearing hats, and sunglasses when he is out. And know he has added a little backpack. Though, I still need a picutre of that I JUST LOVE his personality and his expressions. If only i could be quick enough or have the camera when he is doing them.
