Happy Easter!!

Well Easter weekend was super fun!! We went to my Mom's on Saturday for her annual...egg dying extravaganza and lunch. Can I just say again how great my mom is. She always goes all out...and nothing less. She is a great role model! The kids had an Easter egg hunt and loaded up on sugar! Then on Sunday we went to church in our coordinating outfits! Love it! and then headed to my parents house for a YUMMY Easter feast! All in all it was a great weekend!! Hope you had a hoppy Easter too! :)

Our crazy Draker!!

So people ask us a lot...So does Drake have a similar personality as Gavin ?(since they look so much alike) Heck NO! Gavin...we love him...but he is always serious! Now this kid is hilarious!!! His personality is really starting to shine! He is a funny kid...always laughing at himself ( he really thinks he is a funny guy)!! He has a contagious toothy smile!!! Here are some pics of this crazy kid...we are really lovin this little ham!!!

A NEW POST!!!

I am just not into the blogging thing lately...sorry for the lack of posts! I'm not sure what my problem is...I just feel like...who really reads this thing anyway?!?! So for the few of you that do...We caught the MICE!!! We haven't had anymore since the last post!!! So for those of you I love...don't worry you can come over again! We always seem to keep BUSY!!! Lets see...Pumpkin patch...Halloween partys...sports...a new PUPPY!! Yes I know i'm crazy...a baby and now a puppy?!?! Well for some reason i just felt as though it was time for our kids to get a dog...(that we would keep)! It actually hasn't been that bad! The sunny weather has made it alot easier I think. He name is Oden. But we call him Odie for short. He is a Labradoodle and the sweetest dog ever! Him and Drake are double trouble...into everything they shouldn't be! It's been fun and I am trying to teach my kids something called responsibility!! Sometimes I feel like I am raising ungrateful spoiled kids...so lately I have been trying to be a better parent!! I'll keep you posted on how that one goes! :) So here are some pics of the last few weeks!

Can you believe this was Nick's first time at the Pumpkin Patch!!???

He is totally hypo-allergenic...so we cuddle!!!

Like I said...Double Trouble!!

Drake is getting so BIG!! He is 9 1/2 months already! He is crawling everywhere and into everything! He isn't walking yet...and don't worry I can wait for that!! We love this little man! His personality is for sure starting to blossom!

My WORST Nightmare!!!

Ok seriously...I can't believe this is happening to us. We have some very UNINVITED and extremely UNWELCOMED visitors in our HOUSE!!!!! AAAAHHHH!!! We have a MICE problem! We thought it was just maybe one or two...but I thought wrong. I think we have a freakin colony or something. In the last 12 hours we have caught 3!!! and one that was still ALIVE! Greg your awesome man! This problem started on Saturday...and getting worse by the day! We have the "Mouse Hunter" coming today to help! A BIG thank you to Brian and Greg for coming to my rescue! I love you guys!!! And just so you know...I love my husband a TON...but he is a PANSY!!!
