The Park!

Riverton Park is our new favorite place to hang! I go in the day with the kids, at night with the whole fam, with friends, with family. I finally decided to take some pictures. So here we are chillin at the park.

Memorial Weekend!

What a fun-filled Memorial Weekend we had, here's what we did...

On Friday the 3rd grade held a 'Wax Museum'....Paige chose to be Anna Kournikova. She read all about her, made a poster, and then dressed and posed like her. She did a great job!

Grandma and Grandpa came to see...

Later that day we checked the girls out of school & headed to the movies. We saw Night at The Museum, the show was ok, popcorn & cherry coke excellent!

Of course Cais had to wash his 'baby'!!

We hit the pool Saturday & Monday for some serious swimming, ray bagging, and BBQing. Perfect pool days!!

Later Monday, we shopped a bit at the mall (ok, I shopped, the kids whined and Cais stood around....the Nordstrom half yearly sale, it's a must)! And of course we had to have dinner at The Cheesecake Factory!

Such a great weekend....

Jack's Pre-school Program!

Jack's pre-school program.....what a fun, hilarious, cute program! The kids sang their hearts out, and yelled all the colors, shapes, alphabet, and more. Of course Jack & Evan were the loudest, and (I think) the cutest ones there! Jack has grown so much this year....I look at him, and can't believe he is 3. I want him to slow down, and stay my baby boy!

Jack was chosen to hold the flag and say the Pledge of Allegiance

Let the Field Trips Begin...

Pagie's 3rd grade field trip was to the Aquarium & lunch at the Riverton Park....Jack and I tagged along this year, and had a great time. As I observed Paige with her friends and classmates, I was so proud of her. She is sweet and kind to everyone, and takes the time to talk with so many of the kids. And when kids were rowdy or acting like 9 year olds act....she would laugh or smile, but never participate in their evil ways! She gets more grown up each day, and is so fun to hang out with....today was so fun to be with her!

Lazy Days....

Jack & I are all about hanging out these days, bagging rays at the pool, chilling at the park, & just being lazy!

I know.....quite the life!! To be 3 again, with no cares, no worries!

Falling asleep while coloring, marker still in hand!!

Eating lunch at our favorite place, Jason's Deli...

Mother's Day!

Oh how happy I am to be a mom....

I am so grateful for my wonderful children & for their patience and understanding of me! Being a mom is not always the easiest job, but it is by far the most rewarding job! What a fun day I had....hugs, kisses, cards, presents, & most importantly just being with my family!

And of course today allows me to reflect on my own wonderful mother! Where would I be without this crazy, silly, fun, thoughtful, beautiful mother of mine? Lost....and certainly not the wife, mother, and girl I am today! My mom is my best friend, confidant, laughing buddy, and #1 fan! I am so grateful that she is mine, & so thankful for her example of what a mother should be!!

I love you mom!
