Hot Tubbing!

Tonight my mom and dad had the family over for a BBQ and some swimming, however when we arrived the pool was FREEZING! The heater must have been accidentally turned down when the pool was serviced earlier in the week. So we made the best of it, and BBQ'd, and then spent some quality time in the hot tub!

This is my cool brother, who has mental problems & is a total idiot! And this is his normal pose for any picture we take. The sad thing is, me posting this picture won't even embarrass him, he'll think its cool! How I ever survived 18 years at home with him, I'll never know!

Girls Night Out!

Friday night myself and 4 girlfriends were able to leave the kids at home (except 2 babies, who don't count cause they were great) and spend some quality 'girl' time! We ate, shopped, shopped some more, ate, and got a little bit of sleep in Midway. I am so grateful for all of the friends I have made since moving here, and I hope you all know how much your friendship means to me!

Ellie's Kindergarten Program!

Yesterday was Ellie's Kindergarten program, which we enjoyed so much. She sang her little heart out, and was all smiles! I can't believe Ellie is almost done with Kindergarten! I keep telling everyone how excited I am for her to be at school all day, but the truth is, she's my little helper, shopping companion, and best friend every morning before school. . . and I'm going to miss that! But I am excited for her to keep learning and growing, and most importantly, she is excited for 1st grade!

2nd Grade Field Trip!

Today I was sooooo lucky to be able to join the 2nd grade on their awesome field trip. We were able to visit 3 amazing stores at Jordan Landing, how lucky were we to visit such an awesome Utah landmark? And then we ate lunch at the WJ park. I would first like to say that I loved being with Paige today! She is such a good girl, so sweet and kind to everyone, and today was especially fun to be with just her (no jack or ellie)! Having said that, I do not enjoy the bus, stinky kids, 90 kids all in the same place w/me, or eating lunch at the park when the temperature is 50 degrees, oh and did I say stinky kids! Other than that, the freakin Jordan Landing field trip was great! Sign me up every year!

and.... the park!

The awesome Bus!!

Memorial Day - (Indoors)!

I can only start this post by saying. . . Utah freakin sucks! Will we have a spring? Will summer ever come? Will the rain and snow ever go away? We have friends who tell us Sacramento is the place to live (you know who you are), after this fun winter, I'm starting to believe!

Ok, now that I've got that out of the way, we had a fun filled Memorial Day (indoors)! Started with some bowling (indoors), lunch with grandma & grandpa (indoors), & then a fun bbq (indoors) with our friends/neighbors! Besides the few times we had to run from the car to our destinations in the pouring rain, it was a great day!

Paige & Ellie bowled great, almost hit 100 each!

Caiser & I should join a league, we're THAT good! We challenge any couple out there, anytime!

.

Jack was our "Keeper of the Bowling Balls". Not a single ball could be thrown before passing under the watchful eye of Jack.

Grandma & Grandpa stopped by to take in the festivities! They were great cheerleaders!

My Cute Boyz!

Nothing too exciting happened this week, or at least nothing I documented with pictures. So this is it. . . . my cute boys, gotta love them!

Fun Family Getaway!

I always have good intentions of taking 'so many' pictures, but I fail! I just forget to take the camera every where we go . . . . so these are our pictures from our St.George trip. You will notice all of the pictures are in the condo. We were outside enjoying the sun most of our trip, however, without the camera!

St.George here we come!

We left for St.George yesterday for some warm weather! I know it is getting warmer in Riverton, but not warm enough for me! So this is us on the road.....always good times in the mini van! What would we do without DVD players in our vehicles?

So Blessed to be a Mom!!

What a wonderful mothers day I had, Caiser and the kids spoiled me! Lots of hugs, kisses, and presents....but the best gift is to just be with my family. I am so blessed to be a mother, wife, & daughter. And happy mothers day to my mom, mother in law, and grandma's too!

Go lightning bolts!

Paige playing soccer with her team the Lightning Bolts.......she's awesome!

The Fans!!

Jack's pink hair!

I came home the other night to find my son with pink hair. Of course the girls are always wanting to color his hair with their 'girl crush', but we don't let them. This didn't stop Jack from finding the hair color himself, hiding behind the couch, and giving himself some cute pink hair.
