Emi's 8th birthday

Emi turned 8 last week! Can't even believe it. She asked me for weeks before her birthday if I was going to buy her any presents. As if she has ever had a birthday when I didn't buy her presents! She had a great day and loved being the center of attention.

Great Wolf Lodge

A couple of weeks ago we traveled up to Dallas and met our great friends the Barh's at the Great Wolf logde. The Great Wolf Lodge is a hotel with a water park inside. The trip was way too short but the kids and I had a great time playing with our friends.

Jaike's B-day

I know, I know! Try not to pass out. I am finally doing a new blog post. Today was Jaike's 3rd birthday! He is just so darn cute I couldn't help but post these pictures.

Trip to Utah

I was fortunate enough to be able to go to Utah at the end of March for the blessing of my sister Katie's new twins. Almost my whole family was going to be there and I just didn't want to miss out. Nobody but my Mom and Dad knew that I was coming so it was fun to surprise everyone. It was such a great time and I am so glad that I was able to go.

Spring Break in Altus Oklahoma

Mike was supposed to have spring break off this year and we were going to spend that time camping and hanging out as a family. But.........leave it to the Air Force to mess up our plans. Mike ended up having to go to Virginia that week for an Anatomy class. I didn't want to stay at home all spring break doing nothing so I packed up the kids and headed to Altus Oklahoma. If you don't remember, I lived there a couple of years ago and my GREAT friend Julie and her family still live there. We just hung out and let the kids play. They had a great time and so did I.

Blowing Bubbles

Jaike was blowing bubbles in the back yard and I just thought his little lips were so cute. It's March 3rd and today was a perfect 80 degrees. I guess we should enjoy a little time outside before it's too hot.

Rollin' with the homies

We just got this "bad boy" yesterday and now I'm rollin' with the homies. The surburban that I have been driving for the last 7 years has been giving us quite a few problems lately. I have replaced the transmission, fuel pump and put on new tires this last year. We decided it was time for something a little more reliable.
