MERRY CHRISTMAS!

We had a great Christmas! Jordyn got her Barbie house she has been obsessing about for months! Harlee and the Boys were spoiled as well! It was a fun day and the kids were happy! It makes all the stress of getting ready for the big day worth it seeing them so excited!

Visitors!

NO one ever comes to visit us! (yes this is me pouting) but we got Grandma, Grandpa and Britt to come visit us!!! We were SO Super excited! We had a good time and everyone liked snuggling up with them when we were just chillin at home! We went shopping, got yummy oranges for them to take home and went to see the Mesa Temple lights! Also the boys had a baseball game that Grandma and Grandpa were able to watch! Not the boys best game, but they loved having their grandparents there to cheer for them! I think it was great and hope for more visits in the future!
We just love Britt and are so proud of her and her decision to serve a mission! We LOVE you Brittney! Thanks for comming to visit us!

Happy Birthday to my boys!

Can you believe they are 10?!?!?!!! Where has the time gone? Seriously, I feel like they should still be little toddlers running around, playing cars, watching Blue's Clues and Dora asking for sippy cups and a snack all day long. Now days they want to play baseball, ride bikes, shoot guns with dad, play with friends, watch I Avengers, Transformers or any show with action and play on their I Pod Touches! Where did my babies go?
Jaston wanted a CD player! (IDK why he has an Ipod touch, crazy kido)
Ryker has wanted one of these stuffed animals FOREVER! I always tell him no but he keeps asking for one so I gave in. Good decision, he has slept with it EVERY night since....It takes up pretty much his whole bed, so he sleeps ON it! LOVE this kid!
Their dad thought they were old enough to have there first guns! Yes we have a safe and keep them locked up and NO they dont know where the keys are. Yes we teach them gun safety and the know they arnt toys.
They had a baseball party with their friends for their birthday and had a great time. I was suprised how many actually came, but it made for a funner game! Its been a rough couple of years for Jaxton, but we are plucking along and learning everyday how to keep him healthy. Ryker is doing great and has a bit too much energy! LOL! No, I actually love that, i just wish Jaxton could keep up with him!

HALLOWEEN 2012

Jaxton and Ryker wanted to be Scream for Halloween this year, but because masks arnt allowed at school I talked them into choosing something else. They both LOVE baseball so they decided to use their old uniform shirt and dirty it up and have me paint their faces and go as Zombie Baseball Players! Scary Right? I thought they turned out pretty good.
Harlee girl decided to go as a Vampire. I think she turned out pretty cute too. She LOVED the dress and wanted to wear it EVERYWHERE! I had to hide it to keep her from putting it on all the time! lol
Jordyn wanted to go as a princess, but honestly I just couldn't bring myself to spend $30 bucks on a costume. So we had this cute little ballerina outfit that was given to us from her awesome Aunt Ty so we just bought some cute little slippers and called it good! She is the prettiest little ballerina I have ever seen!
I had to work Halloween night AGAIN so I missed out on taking them trick or treating. They made a haul! A couple of their friends from the neighborhood went around with them and their mom is really strict on candy and unhealthy stuff, so they gave most of their candy to my kids and just kept a few pieces for themselves. My kids ended up with 17 LBS of candy!!! HOLY HELL RIGHT? It lasted a long time and I threw away quite a bit. We should have taken it to the dentist and sold it but my kids decided they didn't want to do that. If they get that much again, I don't think I will be giving them a choice!

Harlee Turns 7

Harlee Turned 7! I can't believe how quickly she is growing up! The thing that breaks by heart, is that she dosen't want to be a little girl anymore. She gave all her toys to her little sister and only wants big girl things. Sometimes her little sister can talk her into playing Babrie's or dolls with her but usually she tells her no. She would rather sit in her room listening to music and making jewlery with her jewlery kits or drawing. She also loves to ride her bike, scooter and roller blades. Harlee is a good sister and very tender hearted. I love her laugh and her sense of humor. She is a funny girl and cracks us up a lot!
