Brynlee's Birthday!!


Isn't she Beautiful! I can't believe she's five! Brynlee had a great weekend, starting with a High School Musical Birthday party at Backyard Adventures! I went to a lot of work to have all the HSM touches for the party. We had HSM cupcakes, HSM sign in sheet, HSM goody bags filled with HSM items, and I made all the kids HSM backstage passes that they wore around their necks. If you already haven't guessed it Brynlee loves High School Musical!

Here is Brynlee and all her friends at Backyard Adventures! They all had a great time. We did have a little problem with Brynlee's attitude at her party, as of today she still hasn't opened her birthday gifts. We took them away until she can change her attitude. I'm not real proud of how she chose to act but I guess it's a good teaching moment for her dad and I to make her understand that we will not put up with her disrespect and attitude.

Here Bryn is at preschool. She was the V.I.K. for the day. Very Important Kinderbeet. Her Birthday was Sunday the 28th, and at school they celebrated it Tuesday. She was so excited to share some pictures with her class and talk about her favorite things. We gave all the kids in her class Hannah Montana Candy Bracelets, they all loved it! Happy Birthday Brynlee, I know you can be feisty but you really are a sweetheart. We are so lucky to have you as a part of our family, you were truly a blessing from God at a time in our lives when Satan was trying to tear apart our family. You are the apple of your dad's eye! We love you!

Connor's 10th Birthday!!


Here is Connor and one of his best friends, Jordan. Connor turned 10 yesterday the 17th but because of football practice we held his Birthday party today. Connor invited 16 friends,which all but two were able to come to Backyard Adventures! It definately was an adventure! It was so crazy, loud, and hectic I'm not sure I want to be in a room with 15+ boys for a long time.


We did a football themed party, where we asked everyone to wear a football jersey! I decorated the table with Connor's helmet, football and of course Maroon and Grey Balloons ( Jordan's Colors)! It all turned out real nice, here is Connor's Football Cake! As each kid left we gave them a football bag filled with gatorade and licorish Rope.


Here is everyone who came to Connor's Birthday Bash! It was a great time, Thank you to you all who came and celebrated Connor's Birthday with us! After the party Connor chose to go to Panda Express for dinner with his family. It seems like just yesterday I gave birth to him, I can't believe how he's grown. He's such a great kid, I know the next 10 years will be just as great as the first 10! Happy Birthday Connor, we love you!

Timber.......


Saturday after Connor's Football game( Connor's team won, with Connor scoring two touchdowns) we went over to Warren's Parents house along with Tristan and Michelle so the guys could cut down two apple trees. They are getting ready to put up a garage and have already tour down a couple sheds but needed some help tearing out some trees. Here they are at the end of the day cleaning up the remains of the trees. It was a fun day, we bought some pizza and Michelle and I decorated a wall for Warren's mom with picture frames, and shelves, and stuff. It turned out real nice. Pictured left to right is John( Warren's dad), Tristan ( Warren's younger Brother), and my sweet boy Carson next to my Hot Husband Warren!


Here is Carson working with the guys! He helped out with everything, the minute he got there til the minute we left. He shocked everyone with his hard work but not me, he has always been the one of my children who loves to work. I'm not sure why, but he really is a go getter! I'm so proud of his work ethics at seven years old. Maybe he will end up taking after his dad who never stops thinking about who he can serve, that would be awesome!


Here is the busy bee again, loading the dumpster! I love you Carson, your my Hero! What great kids I have!

Carson, our Soccer Stud!


Carson is currently playing soccer for a club called Sparta! He loves soccer and is constantly kicking a ball, in the house and out. The season started this summer and goes through next spring. He's been in training up to three days a week. They just cut down the training sessions and have started games every Friday night. Carson is such a fast runner, he did an awesome job at his game on Friday. He even scored his first goal of the season! He was playing exceptionally well this game, I think he loved the attention of haveing his grandma's and grandpa there to watch him! Thanks to you all who come to support our children with their many activities, it means the world to them! Carson you are awesome!!

15 months and not done!


Wow, where has the time gone! It feels like just yesterday I was
anxiously awaiting the arrival of my little girl. She is such a joy
despite the non-stop craziness she brings to our family. Today she
turned 15 months and I can't believe it. We took her today to Dr.
Cox her pediatrician for her well-child checkup and shots. Of
course the first thing he addressed was her weight. Today she
weighed in at 15lbs. 8 ounces. He's very concerned because she
isn't following a curve she has pretty much plateaued. She's not
even on the charts. So for the next month he wants me to put her
on Carnation Instant Breakfast to give her some extra calories and
push high calorie foods. We will see how it goes! Other than that
she is very healthy and doing great! She is such a ball of energy.
She is of course always on the go, and loves to perform for every-
one. She loves to dance or as we call it she shakes her booty! She
is running, climbing, and into everything. She is to busy to talk so
with the help of my friend Sarah we have been teaching her sign
language. I thank god everyday that I get to be her mother!
