February Birthdays!

Han,Papa,Jeremy,Amiya & Emma (March BD)

Our family is getting larger in number all the time. We have decided to celebrate birthdays monthly or we would just be celebrating everyday. Which would be fine, but I have a book to write….  Hopefully my posts will become more timely….Like not months behind the times. Happy Birthday to all these beautiful people!  I love you all!

Christmas 2012 With the Gourley Clan

Christmas “2012”

We usually start our Christmas morning with, cinnamon rolls, sticky buns or caramel rolls. Caramel rolls were our choice for this year and boy were they delicious. We then all sit down and Papa Corkey reads the Christmas story but this year we had three little 2 year olds in the mix so just a story would not do. So Amiya, Emma and Easton decided to do a game show with questions about the Christmas story. Amiya was the host and quickly called for volunteers and announced the names of Emma, Easton, and Josh. Josh is always such a good sport and id not let us down this time either. They did a really good job with such questions as, “Who wanted to kill baby Jesus?” Santa, King Herod or Frosty the Snowman and “Where was Jesus born?” in an Inn, at the Motel 6 or in a Stable. The older cousins did a great job and may have to help out every year from now on.

Baby Isaac and Daddy


We have a new little Gourley who I have not published about yet. He is Sir Isaac Nyguen Gourley (he is not really a sir but it sure sounds official doesn’t it). He is now almost 3 months old. He was born on November 8th of 2010. He is adjusting to the wildness of our extended family and will join his fellow cousins Caiden and Ezekiel in lots and lots of little boy fun. Josh and Han are greatly blessed by this new little bundle even if it has changed their lifestyle a bit.
