Valleyfair - 2012

Crist's work had a family picnic at Valleyfair this year and we had a blast! We got there when the gates opened and pulled out of the parking lot when the fireworks were going! The little kids lasted all day:) Autumn brought her friend so they could go and ride all the big kid rides while we spent most of our time in the kiddo park and in the bathroom LOL! Thank you Luther Automotive for a great day!

Check us out in our matching t-shirts what a cute family! Hope you are all enjoying your summer...up next Middle School and Kindergarden can you believe summer is almost over!

DANCE DANCE DANCE!!

Well it is that time of year again, Dance Recital time! Autumn did great she danced to "Car Wash" and "My Boyfriends Back" the dances were very cute. I really liked the Car Wash dance, it was very cute! Good job Stacy's Stars!!!

  Leighton was so excited to go to the recital she dressed up in her favorite dancing dress! As I always say you have to dress for the occasion:)

Great Job Autumn!!!

B turns 5 and a LEGO Party!!

My little man B turned five last week. I can not believe he is already five and I am filling out kindergarten paperwork. Time sure does fly. Brecken is my gentle soul that makes my heart melt everyday at least once. My favorite is when he for no real reason just tells me "Your the best Mom"

This year he decided to have a Lego party! So I went to work looking on pintrest to find some ideas and got to work. I made Lego man crayons, signs, bags and cakes. The kids had a great time playing Lego bingo and pin the 5 on the Lego guy.

Happy Birthday Brecken!

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas from our Family to yours! If I missed you when I sent out Christmas cards I am sorry:) But here it is... aren't they cute?

I have been enjoying less time in front of my computer for the last few days and I think I will continue that for just one more night. So good night and I hope you had a fantastic relaxing Christmas and Santa was good to you!

Its been a while...

It has been a while since my last post. We had a great thanksgiving it included a run for Hastings Family Services, THE GOBBLE GAIT! It was the first time we as a family did the Gobble Gait and we decided it was a new tradition we are going to do every year. It is a great way to start the day. Run, Bloody Marys and Eat. You can not get any better.

 

And just for fun one of Leighton trying out her new cowboy boots "she said picture me mom" so cute!

Coming soon....super cute Santa pictures!

We are still here...

Well it has been a while since my last post. September was a busy month for us. School started, I shot 3 weddings and took a 5 day girls trip to Las Vegas to celebrate the year of 30 with some fantastic friends. The month ended and now it is October and we are gearing up for fall with the Marathon for school, pumpkins, apple orchard trips and deciding on what to be for Halloween. So far it looks to be a great month! I love October it just might be my favorite month of the year. I just can not get enough apples, fall spice candles and Halloween. This year I think I will have a cowboy(Brecken), a bumble bee zombie(Autumn always wants to be scary) and Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf (twins). I am working hard on costumes so hopefully I can finish them before Halloween as work has been crazy busy. I hope you all are enjoying our warm weather fall. Here are some pictures of what we have been up to.

Autumn's first day of school.

Don't make me go...

Outside of La Reve in Las Vegas. The Show was amazing!

Happy Fall!

We are at home where ever we roam...the new TOY

Well I am still not sure what to think of our latest purchase. I think it will be fun or maybe torture. I am not sure how I will do cooped up with all of us in this thing. But, it's to late to change my mind. We are now proud owners of this beautiful RV, or what ever you call it.

It was super well taken care of and really nice for being 10 years old. The kids think it is pretty cool and are looking forward to camping in it.

Here we all are the old owners, us and my in-laws. Now we just have to decide where we want to go. Happy Summer!
