Seattle Road Trip

The Space Needle was amazing,the food was fantastic, and the company was even better.
We had an absolute blast on our trip! Trenna and Muck came with us.....an I took my little Lainee WHO WAS A TROOPER!!! She was so good, even all the long hours in the car. There are alot of random trip pics, please take note of the ones my husband is actually smiling in. HE NEVER SMILES.














































The best picture of all......what my husband would look like with hair!














We stayed up super late playing cards, laughed during the long road hours, and ate some pretty awesome food. A much needed vacation.

State at Boise

Joldy's team made it to state again this year. The girls and I surprised him and showed up late Friday night. Well not much of a surprise because I am a terrible liar......really. The weather was great (came home with my first sunburn) and the girls got to play with Grace and Kreed so they were super happy.


The Bees ended up 3rd at State and Joldy was very proud.























It was good to hang out with my sister Katie.




Aynslee made a new friend wouldn't leave the poor girl alone.





At the end of a very long weekend, dad and girls were exhausted and it showed! What an amazing coach and good daddy.


We have one week before legion starts and Joldy and I take this weekend for "US" time. So we are headed to Seattle to hit a Mariners/Yankees game. I can't seem to part with my Lainee yet, so she gets to see her first big league game with us. We plan on driving over to Eugene, Oregon to watch Porter Clayton play. Thank you for my family for volunteering to watch our kiddos for us. This little vacation is much needed.

Preschool Graduation and more.....

I am so proud of my graduate!! She has learned so much this year. Write her whole name, tie her shoes, color inside the lines, sign language, alphabet sounds, phone number, address, and so on!!! Still my diva. She has to pick out cute clothes, shoes that match, and don't forget the earrings. She grew 2 inches this year and only gained 1 pound. I think her feet grew 3 sizes, no joke. She stands almost a head taller then her other classmates!

Carter is in the same preschool class as Sicilee so Halley brought her clan. It is funny because all of Halley's kids will be in the same exact grade as one of my kids. Of course not with Jayc but the rest follow right in line with mine:) She just doubled up at the end. Halley has been so creative lately. The dresses that her twins are wearing, she made. I just looked at her and said "where's Lainee's?" I don't know how she has time for such creativeness.



They always ask the kids what they want to be when they grow up. Jaycee said a baby doctor and hasn't changed her mind yet, and Sicilee said a dentist. I immediately looked and Joldy and said he needs to make more money because we have expensive college ahead of us! But not to worry about retirement because the girls will take care of us:)


































My Lainee bugs has graduated to baby food!!! Don't let the picture fool you (bad angle) she is still tiny. She IS NOT A FAN OF FOOD OR JUICE! Really 3 bites, a nasty face, and pursing her lips together. She is just shy of six months and needs more nutrition then just milk. Never had a kid not want to eat. She is still on a great routine (never imposed it, she just did it herself). She is sleeping through the night and in her own bed, but she wakes up around 6 EVERY morning, loads her diaper, then talks to her toes. Never cries. Usually the loading the diaper is the part I wake up on cuz this girl can shake a house:) Sometimes she watches cartoons as I run on the treadmill, sometimes I let her pull my hair, and sometimes I let her play with Joldy's face. He sleeps through absolutely EVERYTHING so it doesn't bother him.





After cheer tryouts we headed to Applebees's to meet my dad because he was up for a visit. It just happen to be kid's night so there was face painting. The girls took full advantage. Halley and Steph came too. So our table consisted of: My dad plus 3 infants, 3 two-year olds, 2 preschoolers, Jaycee, and 3 of his own daughters. Joldy joined us after his game so for a while Dad got alot of funny looks. He always had a baby in his arms or a kid on his lap. I feel so blessed that Dad comes to visit his grandchildren so much and lives 5 hours away. The girls always ask when his next visit is. He never misses a birthday, and calls or texts every holiday. HUGE shout out to Poppy and MeMe for being awesome grandparents.




Random pic of Aynslee.....I think Jayce might of taken it.
