ahhhh, Malaga. We are here for the long weekend, reliving our time here 7 years ago. It's as beautiful as it was then. We got a 3 bedroom condo with a jucuzzi on the roof!!!! how amazing is that! The boys have been loving it!!! Today we went to the wild animal park
in Estepona then took the boys to Mc Donalds {as a treat}then went to the Nerja caves, the older boys loved it, 
Jonah on the other hand was tired and was ready to go home. But not before i had James snap this pic of us. Jason and i have the exact same pic of us in the same spot 7 years ago!!! minus the kiddos, but they wanted to be in the pic!
aslo, this little boy
has reached another milestone. Our little man, the hope of hopes has lost his first tooth. It really made our hearts flutter. Here's our little guy, entering the big leagues. Things like this make you stop and think. He's snaggle tooth, like lots of kids, but he's not baby any more. Tell me this doesn't make you think about time passing. I love the bubba, and We're all sad that he's aging so quick. Oh the bubba! 
it happened on the drive back home from the caves. He had been flicking it with his tounge all day! aawweee. 
i know it was supposed to be the Simpsons, but we decided that lego star wars was cooler! 
and
in the backyard for some trampoline shennanighans!!!
here is the story about this pic. 
The Sensai had them on thier knees, eyes closed, for meditation and he was telling them to visualize an ice cream cone in thier hand. Colby immedietly smiles. Then he says to them, "visualize it begining to melt"...Colby frowns. all the while his eyes are closed. Then he says to them now visualize yourself eating the ice cream before it melts all over your hands and Colby starts licking the air!!! it was so hilarious! i wish i would of been filming at that moment. it was priceless and so precious.
here's Jo, watching his *brodders* with his best buddie, George.
I have also been scrapping . here is a card for our dear friends who are expecting!!!
and i made some fun *halloween* cuties for our home!!! 
they are made from Sculpy clay! i *love* how they they came out! boooo*licious!
and 4th grader!
