Preschool Graduation....

Alex graduated from preschool yesterday! Wow, we thought this day would never come :)! Her teacher, Miss Candace is truly the best and Alex really loves her. She keeps saying she is so sad that she won't see her anymore, and I have to keep telling her she is in our ward and we will still see her on Sundays. It was a fun time last night the kids sang their usual songs they sing at preschool, the days of the week, month and ABC's, it was very cute. We watched a video her teacher made of the things they did all year and even got to take a copy home. They walked down the stairs in their cap and gowns (daddy's white church shirt) while the parents hummed the graduation song and recieved their diploma. We ended the night with brownies and icecream, Alex's favorite! Daddy and Mommy are so very proud of Alex for this accomplishment in her life ;)

Graduation!

My littlest sis graduated highschool this week and I just wanted to give her a shout out of CONGRATS and show off some of her gorgeous senior pics! Cris is the best and I wish her the greatest in what life brings her next!!! It's pretty crazy that my parents are pretty much empty nesters, I'm hoping that it will bring them to AZ more often :)!

Mom...

I love my mommy because.............she is the best at EVERYTHING! I can call her whenever I want and she will listen. She loves chocolate and is not afraid to eat it! She is very strong spiritually and that makes me want to be better. She loves my silly ol' dad. She's great at interior design and has helped paint almost every room in my house! She loves to have parties. She sews just about everything, including taking in shirts, skirts you name it. She wears her fuzzy blue robe and isn't embarrased ;). She's a great gardener/landscaper. She's the greatest grandma and she takes all of Cam's silly crap and still loves him! I could go on and on about my mom, you are the bestest mom!

What did I do!!!

My little man got a haircut!! Me and Cam have gone back and forth on whether we should cut Jake's locks off. After it getting hotter this last week it was time. Talk about a different kid! He looks so old!! I'm a little sad, but with how often I have to cut his hair I'm relieved it will be a while before his next one. He loved getting it done he said, "Again mommy!" He keeps reaching up to touch it, it's pretty funny! He has the dreaded Roth cowlick and it was tough to decide how to comb it. I have now come to terms with him not being my baby anymore. :(

LOVE...

I had a Super Mothers Day!! My cute kiddos and awesome husband made me some yummy cinnamon rolls and milk before church. Cam really stepped up and made the day really special by being Mr. Mom. He did ALL the dishes, cleaning, cooking, getting kids ready and down for naps and bed. Lets just say he was exhausted when he finally laid down last night!

Me and Jake had a great time playing with trains while Cameron was running around trying to get dinner ready!

Alex made me this beautiful picture frame at pre-school. I LOVE being a mom and wouldn't trade it for the world. I have the best kids and husband! I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day!

Happy Mothers Day!!

Someone sent this to me last year and I thought it was too funny!! We have ALL been through some kind of moment like this on Mothers Day!

G-ma Jane..

Grandma Jane came to visit this week. The kids and I had a fun time having her here. She just happened to be here for her birthday and I tried to talk her into going to a new biker bar that just opened up, but she settled for dinner at her new fav Chipotle and cake batter ice cream. The kids helped make pancakes with a berry smiley face and were pretty good sports while we went shopping. The trip had to come to end, but she went to help move Curt and Marissa to Sierra Vista, AZ (YEAH!!) and will be back in a couple of weeks when Grandpa comes to pick her up. Jake said the prayer last night and blessed Grandma at "wok" and when we told him she wasn't at work he said she was sleeping upstairs. We love you Grandma Jane!

These boots were made for walkin......

Cameron and Jake are going on a Father and Son campout tonight and ever since last night when we started packing and got Jakes boots out he hasn't taken them off his feet. He got so mad when I went to take them off last night before bed. He wanted to sleep in them so I thought what the heck I will come back when he is asleep and take them off. Being the mother of two and losing many brain cells I forgot and he really did sleep in them. Thanks Grandpa Kent for the great purchase!
