Car wash

2012-02-16T14:11:00.001-08:00

It has been so long since I washed my van that Amber ran in the garage and stopped and said "whoa did we get a new car"

Aaron's heaven

2012-02-16T10:35:00.000-08:00

This was set up at the car wash. He doesnt want to leave'!,

Adams Christmas

2012-02-05T16:12:00.001-08:00

Adam got to go to his WWE live event today with bobby. He came home with this outfit on and all this bling. They had so much fun. It was cute!

Crazy story

2012-01-05T07:24:00.000-08:00

We cleaned the garage finally, it hasn't been done since we moved in. (scary spiders) we went through all the clothes and found some to fit amber. These star pants were some of Ashleys. Aaron comes in the kitchen and starts telling amber, "Ashley pants, take off" he said this to her several times. He was really upset. Now the last time Ashley wore those pants was in Washington he wasn't a year old yet, when those pants stopped fitting her. Now I've got a few theories. 1. He's a genius! (I'm leaning towards this one ;-) ) 2. He had a lucky guess? 3. He did a home visit before being born. Crazy huh!

Aaron's bribe.

2012-01-04T18:31:00.000-08:00

I was playing words with friends with Aunt Jackie. Aaron likes to name the letters and push them to the board, so I let him. Before I knew what happened he had pushed resign and ok. I was winning by almost 100 points!! I told Jackie that she must have bribed him. Today in the mail he had a package of Thomas stickers telling him thanks.

Halloween (I know ;-) but I found this in drafts)

2011-12-27T08:35:00.001-08:00

Kids are adorable what can I say. :-) Aaron had so much fun he was in awe that he could knock on someones door and they would give him candy! His smile when he came back and held up his bucket, was huge. Every time I told him to hurry he said in a loud voice "k mom" he had everyone laughing. Adam said our loot intake sucked. Lexi of course was mad we made her go with us. Ash and Amber had fun though. All in all a good night, especially when six hours later the weather turned cold with sleet and snow.

She did it!

2011-12-27T08:31:00.003-08:00

Amber has been scared to get earings but she got money for Christmas and that is one thing she wanted!!! We have had such a fun day. We went to the mall, went shopping, and now are eating dinner. She is getting so big.

Christmas morning

2011-12-25T20:08:00.001-08:00

Merry Christmas all!!

Christmas jammies

2011-12-25T20:08:00.000-08:00

We also do Christmas PJ's. It was hilarious the kids showing off their jammies.

Christmas

2011-12-25T20:07:00.001-08:00

My sisters Elizabeth, Melissa, and I all gathered our families for a Christmas Eve party. We had delicious food, (just ask the people who made it. Story to follow) acted out the Christmas play, and gave secret friends presents. So fun!!

Christmas play

2011-12-25T20:05:00.000-08:00

Our play was hilarious! Me, liz, and lex were angels. Amber was baby Jesus. Ashley was the donkey, Suzie was Mary, Zach was Joseph. Jaidon, Adam, and Justin were wise men. David was the inn keeper. Ashley said she will never be the donkey again, I think Suzie was really riding her. Haha. Adam and the wise men sang happy birthday. And pretty much silliness. But it still brings the spiritual aspect to Christmas. I loved it

More jammies

2011-12-25T19:54:00.000-08:00

Secret friends

2011-12-25T19:49:00.001-08:00

Every year on Dec first we draw a secret friend and do something nice for them every day. And then on Christmas Eve we guess who had us and exchange presents. Missy and Lizzie do this too so we got to see everyone guess.

Ornaments

2011-12-25T19:37:00.000-08:00

The kids making their ornaments. Theres no pics of Adam and Lexi cause the slapped some paint on and ran off to play WOW.

Lexi

2011-12-25T19:33:00.000-08:00

What can I say. She thought this would make her hair cute and fluffy she wouldn't let me take an after pic.

This is how she carries her cat. Good thing she's cute! ;-)

Adams play

2011-12-25T19:30:00.000-08:00

Adam had such a cute play. It was a moral play involving fairy tale characters. Adam was baby bear and he needed to forgive Goldilocks. It was so adorable. He had so much fun.

Sleeping

2011-12-25T19:25:00.000-08:00

Goodness I have alot of sleeping pics. Amber fell asleep on the chair with her body on the arm rest and her head far below on the seat!

Church class.

2011-12-25T19:20:00.001-08:00

I went to go pick Aaron up from class and found him zonked.

Santa pictures

2011-12-25T19:18:00.001-08:00

We had to bribe Lexi, and for both Aaron's pictures he wouldn't look up from his candy cane.

First night in a big boy bed!

2011-12-25T19:13:00.000-08:00

Another bad Night with Aaron and I was sitting in his room at 2:30 in the morning. He had been getting out of his bed for a few weeks. He was climbing in his bed and almost fell backwards and cracked his head on the window sill. Scared me, so I figured I was up any way. We rearranged his room and this was his first night sleeping in a big boy bed.

Gage

2011-12-25T19:06:00.001-08:00

My nephew Gage left on his mission on my birthday so the night before we went to rodizio grill for both of us. We are proud of you Gage!

Thanksgiving

2011-12-25T19:03:00.001-08:00

Catch up!

2011-12-25T19:01:00.001-08:00

Homemade ornaments

2011-12-22T22:35:00.001-08:00

Jackie this is why it took me forever to play last night.

Age progression

2011-12-15T10:48:00.000-08:00

Oh my gosh Aaron got this mustache at the dentist. He wanted me to put it on so I did. He started freaking out cause it was ticklish. I grabbed him to show him in the mirror. I did get him to smile at me in between the scowls. This is how he could look in thirty years!

Single digit temperatures

2011-12-07T06:37:00.000-08:00

Told Amber to get ready for school. This is what she came back in! Hahaha

Stealer

2011-12-04T10:23:00.001-08:00

I turned on my tub to take a bath and left for a minute, cause it takes a while to fill up. I came back and Aaron was in the tub.

Aaron's obsession

2011-12-04T08:06:00.001-08:00

Wish me luck to ever get these jammies off of him. He loves Thomas. Is obsessed with him actually. His smile was huge when I brought out his new jammies to wear. He walkes around pointing and showing everyone Percy and Thomas.

Jokes

2011-11-11T06:33:00.000-08:00

Ok background: Adam is always telling me those silly jokes like, why did the banana go to the doctor? Because he split. So this morning when he asked me what is a cereal killer, I immediately started saying things like milk, and captain crunch. He kept saying no and got mad. So I told him that I'm trying to guess and he shouldn't be mad. He gave me a weird look and said no I mean what is a real serial killer. Apparently the spelling of a word can change the whole meaning! :-) who knew!

Aaron's salon

2011-11-10T03:01:00.001-08:00

Ashley let Aaron decorate her with stickers. He was very proud of his work! :-)

Ashley's future

2011-11-10T02:58:00.000-08:00

Ashley's future plans include: becoming a veterinarian, moving to Nashville on a farm with lots of animals. Meeting Brad Paisley breaking up his marriage so she can have him for her own! Here is a conversation we had. "I'm going to marry him (Brad) someday" Says Ashley. "You can't," I said "he's already married." "He won't be when I get there." Lol

Snow

2011-11-05T07:52:00.000-07:00

Amber's version of dressing warm to play in the snow.

Baptism

2011-11-04T10:04:00.000-07:00

Breakfast

2011-10-27T06:06:00.000-07:00

Oh ya. This is how I roll as a mom. Breakfast on the floor. Ok it really wasn't me. Amber and Aaron were pretending to be puppies.

Aaron and his buddy.

2011-10-14T20:17:00.000-07:00

Party

2011-10-06T08:16:00.000-07:00

This is the aftermath of being up since 3:30 this morning. He didn't even make it ten minutes. He was so funny this morning. We played and played. I don't know to many two's who know the shapes and what colors they are! Anyway this is going to be me in about ten minutes. Yea school! :-)

Aaron's stickers

2011-10-05T07:48:00.000-07:00

Linda and Ted (who will be our favorite neighbors forever) sent Aaron these stickers for his birthday. I was going through the drawer and found the last sheet of them. (The rest ended up on my wall :-) ) I figured this time I would provide guidance. So we sat down and put them on paper. He was so proud of himself. He keeps pointing to the stickers and making me name them and then he repeats. I especially love the helcocter (helicopter for those of you who don't speak two) ;-)

Lexi Driving?

2011-09-26T12:43:00.001-07:00

Not yet!!!! I picked her up from taking her test and she gets in the car all mad. She said she missed 11 and the could only miss 10. I tried talking to her and she said "mom I can't talk right now, I'm to mad. I just want to go to my room and swear in my head for ten minutes." Well of course I started laughing. Where do they come up with this stuff. Of course I'm heartbroken (not I feel like a person on death row who just got a last minute reprieve) she is taking it again tomorrow. Heaven please keep us safe!!!!!!

Yellowstone

2011-09-19T10:46:00.000-07:00

These will be the last pictures for today! Aaron has gotten in the hot chocolate mix, eaten cat food, and just came down with his belly and arm painted with nail polish. That is my cue to be finished!

Yellowstone

2011-09-19T10:40:00.000-07:00

This is uncle Randy. He kept teasing us that he was responsible for everything we saw. It was time to head back to the lodge on our last night and we were teasing him about not finding a bear. On the way back is when we saw the grizzly. Randy rolled down his window and said "anything else."

Yellowstone

2011-09-19T10:22:00.000-07:00

We passed this bison and went down the road a few miles, pullled over and got lunch going. Uncle Randy said that bison is going to come over the hill and walk right past us. Bobby scoffed, and we went on eating. Sure enough about five minutes later here comes this huge bison headed straight for us. It just kept coming closer and closer. We quickly grabbed our stuff and jumped in the back of the truck. (Ashley was too scared she got in the truck)! This bison walked right next to the truck like we were a rock he had to avoid. It was so cool!

Yellowstone

2011-09-19T09:53:00.000-07:00

Here are some more pictures. Everytime we drove by geysers that were smoking we would hear Aaron say whoa really loud.

Yellowstone

2011-09-19T09:47:00.000-07:00

This is the black bear we saw. He is about 30ft off the road eating berries. We were in our car. Can you believe these people. The rules are 100 yards from bears. They just stood on the side of the road like they were at a zoo or the bear was maybe tame! On our way back we passed a ranger speedind down the road. I'm sure to tell people to back off.

Yellowstone

2011-09-19T09:41:00.000-07:00

We went to Yellowstone twice this summer so these pictures are of both trips! Our first trip was with Bobby's uncle, aunt, and two cousins. Alexis was at girls camp and didn't go. (Hence the second trip) We have decided that place is awesome!!!! The second trip we kept track of what state license plates we saw. We only missed Mississippi and New Hampshire! The kids called me a stalker because I had the binoculars trained on cars instead of wildlife. We saw two bears. A grizzly on the first trip and a black bear on the second. Lots of bison, deer, elk, coyotes, and big horn sheep. The hot springs are amazing. They are so clear in some of the pictures you can't tell their is water.

Missionary's

2011-09-19T09:02:00.001-07:00

The kids are having the missionary lessons to prepare for their upcoming baptisms. We love these missionaries they are awesome and the kids are so excited when they come over! In the picture they are having a contest to see who can spin their head the longest without falling.

Aaron and kitty

2011-09-19T08:59:00.001-07:00

The Kitty was on the headrest, under my legs, and generally all over. After a few minutes I realizes I hadn't seen him in the mirror lately, so I turned around and saw this. He sat that way the rest of the way home!

Hotel fun!

2011-09-09T20:50:00.000-07:00

Aaron put these goggles on all by himself. They went on backwards first, he looks so old!!!!! The kids were so happy to get to go swimming. I have tons of pictures from our Yellowstone trip. I will have to get on that quickly!

Aaron the daredevil

2011-09-09T14:36:00.000-07:00

Aaron idolized Adam. He tries to do his dance moves (with lots of success surprisingly), this afternoon he was riding his bike to pick up amber and he was doing tricks on his bike just like adam!!! He stood on the seat and rocked back and forth to move it. The one picture he would get his bike going and then lay on the handlebars and lift his feet up (that one didn't turn out so well he ran off the road) when I was trying to get a better picture he kept giving me this cheese smile. I love this kid. He is such a joy!!!!!!

First day of school

2011-08-31T07:36:00.000-07:00

Yep summer is over for us! It was a crazy summer. I calculated we drove almost 9000 miles in several different trips. And headed off to Yellowstone again this weekend. Crazy, crazy! We are loving where we live. It feels like a small town but we have city amenities right down the road! The kids are loving their schools, and their teachers are awesome. We got all the scheduling figured out so I'm not stressed any more. (For those of you who don't know Adam and Ashley are in one Elementary and amber is in another) Alexis started high school. Can you believe it. I think that means I'm getting old. ;-)
She is absolutely loving the freedom that comes with high school its to early for her to have had the responsibility yet! She is taking AP biology it is tough but I know she is smart enough to handle it! Adam and Ashley both have found lots of friends. Their school is just to easy right now. I really hope they start challenging them soon, because Ashley says she is bored! Amber is doing well with the adjustment to all day school. I was worried because she still took a nap every day and when she skipped it, look out world! She has fallen asleep a couple of times when she got got home, but has has handled it pretty well. She loves her school! Aaron and I are enjoying our days together and it is pure bliss during his nap. I know I even got to eat nachos and watch a movie, and I didn't have to share or pause! It was beautiful. Now if only I had a maid and didn't have to spend my mornings cleaning. ;-/ I'm sure this blog will have tons of posts coming. I have alot to catch up on!!!

Office party

2011-08-31T07:11:00.000-07:00

Bobby had another office party on Saturday. (I think he married the wrong person. I am so antisocial). I stress about these parties for so long and then they get here and we have alot of fun. He got an obstacle course bouncy house this time and goodness was it fun!

Mosquito attack

2011-08-31T07:01:00.000-07:00

Mosquito attack

2011-08-31T06:59:00.000-07:00

Holy cow these mosquitos here are mean!!! These are pictures of my legs 1 1/2 min after I walked outside! You look behind you and there are fifty coming after you! It even happens in the middle of the day! We all have about sixty bites on our legs it is crazy!

I'm weak

2011-07-22T18:13:00.000-07:00

The kids won! Lol

Lexi cooking school

2011-07-06T11:50:00.000-07:00

Aaron wanted to help Lexi make cupcakes! In the one picture I told him to smile :-)

Amber's time out

2011-07-02T14:29:00.000-07:00

I promise I didn't knock her out (although she would have deserved it) I sent her to time out and she fell asleep!

Lessons for dad

2011-06-30T06:27:00.001-07:00

Bobby was holding Aaron and eating an ice cream. He had given him a few bites, but didn't want to give him to much because he might be allergic, so he told him no more. Aaron looked Bobby in the face and told him "share dad!" Where do you go from there but to give the kid more.

Sleeping outside

2011-06-29T06:04:00.000-07:00

Note to self: when you let the kids sleep outside on the trampoline turn off the sprinklers! Lol

Bridal Veil Falls

2011-06-28T13:09:00.000-07:00

Matt (our cousin) came to stay for a week with us and me, him, and ashley went for a small hike. We really miss you Matt!

My fondest dream!

2011-06-28T13:00:00.000-07:00

I wish :-)

Oops

Restaurant in Kanab, Ut

2011-06-28T12:56:00.000-07:00

We stopped at this barbeque place on our way down to Arizona. They had all this fun stuff in the courtyard and the food was delicious. We are definitely stopping there again. Can you tell who is the drama queens of the family?

The Spears and all their kids!

2011-06-26T19:39:00.000-07:00

I'm so glad someone had the presence of mind to get us all rounded up for pictures. Zachary was the only one missing!

Sunset out the back door.

2011-06-26T19:33:00.000-07:00

We love the bike path.

2011-06-26T19:32:00.000-07:00

Here are some pictures of our new house and the views!

Bee's baseball game

2011-06-13T16:13:00.000-07:00

We went to a Bee's baseball game (they are the minor league team for the angels, I think). It was fun. Adam got his name called out and put up on the board saying happy birthday! It was a perfect day to watch a game. They had a fireworks show after. We had a blast.

Family party

2011-05-23T09:01:00.000-07:00

Family party!

2011-05-23T08:44:00.000-07:00

We have 3 birthdays in 2 days so since we live here now, we can have a party together. Yea! It was so much fun. We rented a bouncy castle, had a pinata, and an obstacle course. Did a barbeque and handed out medals. Grampa came up too. It was great to get together. We all still feel like we are only on vacation and will be going home soon. Even Aaron got in on the spanking line action.

Suzie and Ashley together at last!

2011-05-23T08:06:00.000-07:00

Finally they both have a girl cousin to hang out with. What is up with all these boys! :-)

I can't believe you are eight!

2011-05-23T08:03:00.000-07:00

Happy birthday Adam! How dare you get older though, I think its quite rude. ;-) I am so grateful for you every day. You are a special kid. Never let your sweet spirit disappear. I am constantly surprised by your sense of humor, and your funny insights and observations of the world around you! I am so grateful to get to be part of the wonderful man you will become! I love you buddy have a wonderful day.

Holy hail!

2011-05-23T07:53:00.000-07:00

I thought we would be done with crazy weather. Guess not. We brought it with us.

Body surfing on skateboards!

2011-05-03T21:41:00.000-07:00

Day at the zoo

2011-05-03T21:39:00.000-07:00

Ahhh the joys of being close to the ground. The goat pellet machines.....one was empty the other one gave you six pellets for $.50, so we ran out quick. Aaron found tons on the ground and was having a grand old time. I had to grab him quick when he started pushing his way in and stealing from people at the machine though. My handsome hubby was very patient with us. (Zoo's are not his thing) I was mad at him though. You have to understand, I have been waiting for a nice day to take Aaron to the zoo because he loves animals. Well we get there and Bobby buys him a huge sucker and he could care less after that. It was such a fun day. We will miss the point defiance zoo and aquarium!

Day at the zoo

2011-05-03T21:27:00.000-07:00

Ya I know what you all are thinking! That's everyday at my house right. Lexi said she was just helping Aaron. Well tell me do you see Aaron anywhere? Aaron was so big he would climb the stairs and go down this slide all by himself. Amber was a scientists at the petting zoo. They had to write down their observations.

Bratz anyone

2011-05-03T21:21:00.001-07:00

She was wearing Alexis's boots and she so looked like a bratz doll.

Aaron's friends

2011-05-03T21:19:00.000-07:00

Aaron is so friendly. At the zoo he and this other random kid kept following each other to these little viewing windows. Then the would start chattering a bunch of nonsense words to each other. They started having people looking at them instead of the animals. The other pictures are at Adams play. Aaron was in the stroller and this kid was walking around. Aaron held out his arms to him for about two minutes. It looked like he was saying "comon dude help a brother out." When Aaron started fussing I let him out. He immediately tried to give the boy a hug, to which the boys response was to stiffen and back away. Then Aaron took his snacks over to the boy, and offered him some. When the boy didn't understand Aaron started pantomiming how to put his hand in and get one. When the boy still didn't do it Aaron tries to do it for him. (that is the pic of him grabbing the boys hand) Eventually Aaron gave up and just started getting them out for him. They were cute together.

Adam's play

2011-05-03T21:05:00.001-07:00

Adam did so awesome in his play I was so very proud of him. He wanted flowers like ashley had when she did her play. So I went to get some, ended up getting him a balloon bouquet instead. That was not one of my best moves. Lol. Aaron made tons of noise with them during the play and when we gave adam the balloons (before I even got a pic), he untied the weight, and off they went. Not very far though. He was ready to cry. So I sat there throwing a shoe at them, hoping against all odds to snag the balloons and bring them down. ( if you want the full version visit Lexis blog, she loves to make fun of me) Needless to say I made a total fool of myself. Laughing histerically the whole time. Didn't retreive them so to make Adams sad face go away (it has power over me, lol) I offered to buy him more. He said no just give me money to buy Pokemon cards! And happily off we went towards the sunset.

Soccer

2011-05-03T20:50:00.001-07:00

Amber receiving her soccer trophy. It was a beautiful day to be at the park.

Adams costume

Tooth fairy visits!

2011-04-27T06:41:00.001-07:00

In the midst of our busy night amber lost her tooth. She was so excited to get a dollar.

Late night party!

2011-04-26T22:09:00.001-07:00

We are working on Adams woodpecker costume for his play in a few days. We had some of the feather boa left so we made toa's.! This is how my kitchen looks after this fun art project! I spent more on this costume for this play than I spend for Halloween. Lol. I'm proud of myself! To come up with a costume from scratch is not my strong suit. Adams picture in his costume will be coming soon. (Only cause he's asleep, maybe I should wake him up I can't wait to see it) ;-)

Aaron's sad face

2011-04-25T18:30:00.001-07:00

Easter morning

I am kicking myself, I forgot to take a picture of the kids in their Easter
dress outfits. The looked beautiful, and handsome.

Anyway, Adam didn't participate very long in the egg hunt because he found
his Easter basket with Pokemon cards, and no amount of reason could make him
look. He only found three. Amber found out and gave him some of hers.
Aaron was an egg finding machine. He was finding his that were easy, and the
older Kids that weren't so easy.
I wouldn't be surprised if he found the most. He is the only one of my kids
who doesn't run past eggs to get one. He gathered them up on his way. You
can see Amber's excitement about egg hunting. Her picture says it all.
Ashley hunted but she was also directing Aaron at the end. She was thrilled
with her scrap book and recipe container. Lexi got makeup and didn't look
for eggs. She was to old apparently. Its hard to think of how fast time goes
we only have a few more holiday years with her. There is candy scattered
from one end of my front room to the other, chocolate on my couch, and gum
on the carpet, but I don't care it was to fun!

Easter was so much fun. Aaron kept demanding eggs to put in the color water. I think he did more than anyone else. Lol. As you can see we messed up and put him to close to the table and an accident happened. The kids all chose their favorite egg to get a picture taken with.

Adam my funny man.

Yesterday I walked Adam to school and he wouldn't walk by me cause he was embarrassed. This morning I asked him why, and he said that last year I kissed him and it makes him nervous I will do it again. I threatened to take him out front and kiss him again. His response was "mom your ruining my social life." What a stink.

Ashley wanted to earn some money so she made these flyers, and delivered them around our neighborhood. She already has orders worth $18.00. I should have put her to work years ago! Lol

The season is winding down I thought I would be happy not to be out in the freezing cold, but I'm feeling sad, and wishing I could sign them up for baseball. Oh heck I've lost it! Lol
