January 2016! - Jaxon's 13th Birthday

1/1 to 1/9: 

Mum turned 75 yrs old on January 2nd, we just stopped by and gave her a gift, Jody & kids were there also. Was nice having days off for the holidays, now back to work. Candi and I saw the last Hunger Games Thursday night for our date at the redone AMC theaters which used to be Carmike on redwood rd. They are nice and the chairs are lazy boys type that lay back. We didn't know that until Candi accidentally hit the button on her chair. We had a nice time. We had a blanket and cuddled while watching. It was way snowy on the way home.  Erana went to her friend Lilly's birthday party, it was a 'Frozen' theme, and their were two women dressed up and acted like 'Anna & Elsa', she enjoyed the party.

1/10 to 1/16: 

Our wall leaked again this winter by the sliding door because of the ice in the gutter, happened around New Years, we called our insurance to deal with it. And then they told us that they only fix the outside and not the roof!!? Some people have come in to take off the damaged part and dry it. We had blowers going for 3 or 4 days constantly. They'll wait to fix the wall when we have fixed the outside roof. We went to the temple on friday.

Erana says:

I got a new purse bag from walmart, and have been using it for about a week. I hang it on the chair in our bedroom. Erana said to me, 'mum I don't like your new bag', I said why? she said, 'because I don't like change'.

1/17 to 1/23: 

I had Monday the 18th off for Martin Luther King day. Slept in. Thursday night we saw 13 hours at the AMC theaters. Was pretty good. About the braves americans that went to help fight the terrorists that attacked the US embassy in Benghazi, Libya back in 2012. Obama and Hillary Clinton blamed that attack on a youtube video because it didn't fit his re-election narrative that al queda is on the run. They didn't send any help and cost 4 american lives including the ambassador. Blimin lying sleaze balls. Played outside with the kids and made a snow slide by the side of our house.

 

1/24 to 1/31: 

I took Thursday the 28th off to do some stuff in the morning before we got Jaxon out of school and took him to lunch at the Chinese Gourmet for his birthday. We then went clothes shopping for him at Marshalls and Target. Later on we had his tres leches cake and he opened his presents. He got a sword and Call of Duty Black Ops 3 game. Also money and stuff. Friday we went to Lowe's to look at windows. Ended up having a guy come over to the house and give a quote for the windows by the living room sliding door as well as the roof. Will cost about $9000 for it all so we're thinking about that. On Saturday was Melia's quincenera at the Noah center in Sandy. Started a 6pm. It was more decorated than a wedding reception. They had catered food and mariachi band. Jody and Julia sang in spanish. Jody and Melia danced to pop songs after starting off with a slow dance. Mina was in the court group. They did their ballroom dance thing. They practiced every Thursday for a month. They had a dance after and everyone joined in. It was a good time. A lot of the girls in the court were hanging around Tyrell because they thought he was handsome. We left around 10:45pm.
