Christmas Was a Blast!

Hi Everyone! The Mendoza family had a blast during Christmas this year! It was wonderful to wake up and open presents as a family! We went to my mom and dads house to open presents over there around 9:00am. Johnny and I got a new laptop and we're very excited about that! I then had to make 20lbs of mashed potatoes....Ugh! That was rough! But Christmas Dinner was great at my moms house! about 50 people and TONS of food! After dinner we ALL went to my Meme's house and opened more presents there...ya my house was a mess! Great Day!

Sunday Afternoon with Family

Here's Some of the latest Pic's of our little Family!

4th of July!

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!

We had a great morning getting ready for the fourth! Zion was going to be Lady Liberty, but we ended up just making a star with her hair. She looks like a real firework!!! Due to lack of hair, Raylynn got a cute bow!

Zion Goes to the Dentist!

"HAPPY GAS FOR ZION!!"

Well, Zion has been to the dentist before to get her teeth cleaned...however this time she had a chipped tooth that turned into a small cavity. So she had to get "Happy Gas" and 2 shots. She did really well and was quite funny!!

Zion and Raylynn New Pic's

Another....funny Story!

Well just to let you know, we took some amazing picutures of little Raylynn, but I can't get the chip to work in the computer...so those are soon to come but for now,

The other day, Zion is singing "Supercalifragilisticexpialadocious" from Mary Poppins. After singing for a few minutes, she stops and looks up at me and says, "Man, Mary Poppins sure speaks good spanish!"

Funny Story!

So the other day Zion was playing outside and on her way back inside she tripped and fell. Well Zion has always been a "tough" kid and doesn't cry hard or for very long when she hurts herself. So when she started to cry, I picked her up and naturally said, "Your okay Zion." Well apparently that was all it took for her to tell me how it was! She said in a very stern frustrated voice, "You Always say that!! YOUR OKAY, YOUR OKAY, well you don't know!" I bit my tounge and apologized and told her to tell me when she thought she was ok. She waited a little bit and then looked up at me and said, "I'm okay."

Photo Competition

Zion is going to dance competition this weekend in Dallas, TX. She is so dang cute when she dances...You should see the cute little faces she makes! She will definently steal the show! We are also entering her into a Photo competition at the same place, here are some of the pic's!
