2015 Family Pictures

Here are some of my favorites of our family pictures.  Ashley does such an amazing job.  She seriously can handle my family and make us look not so dysfunctional.  She can handle Brady, which is a job in itself!  He hates family pictures.  So here's an overload, be grateful I didn't post them all!  :)

Catching Up

Well I'm pretty much a year behind in updating this blog.  I tried to keep up, but we didn't have a working computer so it was hard.  I have most of my important photo's on Instagram, and they'll print into chatbooks.  So that will help me keep up that way.  I don't feel like totally updating this, so chatbooks will have to do.  So in the past year here are a few highlights.

*We went to Bearlake A LOT in the summer, and it was our happy place!

*Baine started kindergarten

*This summer Quincee learned how to drive her power wheels and ride her bike within a few weeks of each other

*Baine got a new set of golf clubs from Grandma Sally and Grandpa Brooks for his birthday, and he is quite the golfer

*Quincee has become quite the little chatterbox, but she still sounds Chinese

*We went to Heber and road the Polar Express to the North Pole.  Baine wasn't really fooled though. 

*We went to Midway and saw the Ice Castles

*We had a really good Christmas, and we all got spoiled as usual

And for the biggest news, we are expecting another girl in May.  Crazy thing is, is that Kade and Jessica are expecting a girl too and we are due close to the same date.  So it will be so fun!

Brady's Appendectomy

Back in April, Brady woke up in the middle of the night with pain that just got worse as the night went on.  He went to the doc in the morning and they sent him to the ER.  They ran their tests and told Brady that they needed to take out his appendix.  He got surgery that day around 3 and was hoping to go home haha!  But they kept him over night.  The next morning when i drove back in to pick him up he was fully dressed, shoes on and all, and pretty much up everyones butt to get him out of there.  It was kind of comical.  He cracks me up!  

The rest of Disneyland pics

Seaworld

It was so flippin hot that it was almost miserable the day we went to Seaworld.  We only stayed for about 3 hours before we all had had it.  I cant think of  anything that the kids really loved while we were there.  But i'm almost a year behind in posting about this, so i could have forgotten by now.  

Just a picture of swimming at the hotel.

 Here are some pics of meeting Minnie.  Quincee loved her from a distance and would get so excited.  As soon as we got close she was a little freaked out.  When they got a picture with Minnie she stroked her face.  I think she knew something was up and it was weird haha!

 Here are pictures of meeting the super hero's.  This was one of my favorite parts.  Captain America did an amazing job.  He really seemed like the real deal.  Thor wasn't as good, but his room was amazing, and the kids got to try to lift his hammer.  Which of course no one could do it but him.  By the time we got to Iron Man, the kids were done and Baine wasn't impressed because it was only the suits and not the man.  I wanted a picture with the suit and I made both kids cry.  I got my picture anyway :)  We looked like a trainwreck.  The people behind us just laughing at us.

The only pic i'll ever get of Brady in a minivan.  I need to document it.  

I could of killed Quincee on our flight home.  She was horrible!!  The people around us were so nice and were trying to help us by trying to keep her occupied.  Finally when the wheels touched the landing strip she was out cold.  I could of killed her for that too ;)
