Happy Birthday Jace!

(showing us his pitching stance!)

Jace is 5!!! Oh man! He is so excited to start Kindergarten this fall, and play t-ball this summer, and have a friend birthday party, It's not too hard to make this kid happy!

Jace is our funny little man, always doing something to make us laugh, don't get me wrong, he has his moments of unhappiness, but boy is he a crack up!

Tonight we are having sloppy joes for dinner, cake and ice cream and just hanging out. We'll be planning his friend party at a later date! love you Jace!

Wow! Time has flown by since last May!

Here's just a little of what's been going on in our world.

Trevor took 2nd in the Pine Wood Derby this year.

He HAD to have a Jimmer car, but we forgot to put his #32 on it! oops!

Here is Cole, playing in his 1st tournament! He is on the Fusion team!

(His pants are too big, so he rolled 'em)

This is what we've been up too since last fall, Trevor made the Crush travelling team, and Cole just started last month on Fusion's travelling team. It gets a little confusing remembering every where they are going, and different directions too, but we LOVE it!

Mothers Day...

These little people make life super fun, never a dull moment, hard, and worth every penny!

This morning I woke up to Miss Hadi's smile right next to my face. (bad breath, but worth it!)

The boys heard us giggling and Jace was the 1st boy to come running in, then cole and trevor slowly followed. They asked what we were doing after church, and I said, we're going to Kingston, not church. Then Trevor remembered it was Mothers Day and ran to get the present he made for me. Cole told ME to go get his out of his backpack! I told HIM to go get IT! (terd!)

Anywho, I opened two very special gifts and I love how proud they both were and are of their creations. It is fun to see their reaction more than my own.

I think I am a little TOO hard on these little people and I need to lighten up some. Some of my expectaitons are too much for little kids, heck they're too much for me sometimes.

I've been a little emotional for the past two weeks, and I'm truely grateful for my kids giving me patience. They love me unconditionally, and they are always so fast to forgive~

I am truely grateful to my Heavenly Father for the lives He has entrusted to me, and I only hope that I don't let Him down. I truely LOVE each one of these little spirits!

And I'm really grateful to my mom and my sisters, for showing me love, even though I can get a little moody! They are all great women and mothers! LOVE THEM TOO!

Thanks McKell as well! Thanks for getting me OUT of the house this past week. I really have enjoyed hanging out with you and having some fun time. You are a great mom

and awesome friend! LUV YA!

Maryland....

Isn't she cute.....I had to put a cute picture of the princess on here!

So Josh made it to Maryland. He got in yesterday at about 3:50pm Utah time.
He said it's like nothing he's ever seen, green everywhere. There have been a few mix-ups but things should be settled by Tuesday at the latest. He starts tomorrow selling alarms for AMP.

Josh is a little nervous but feels that he has a lot to work for. We sure are proud of him, sad at times that he's not here, but proud of him for making a tough decision to try something new.


We went to Vegas this past Thursday night, to play all day Friday before he left on Saturday. What a day! We basically walked the entire strip with all 4 kids and NO stroller.
(Who in their right mind makes kids walk that far?)


Anywho...we ate, went swimming, played in the arcade, ate some more, slept and had a lot of fun with dad before he left us all crying in the hotel room Saturday morning. I did take some pictures but they didn't turn out too great:(


So life here is kinda hard for a minute, but I feel like I have a great support group to back me up and help with the kids, and Trevor is being SO helpful. Love that kid!
We should be plenty busy with school, work, baseball, golf, swimming lessons, trips, daycare, friends, yard work, life, life, life, to not cry too much while he's gone! So if you catch me on a rough day, I'm just gonna apologize right now!:)

Today, he's 4!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this little guy!!!

tonight we are going down to st. george to

Pirate Island Pizza,

and having cake and ice cream with the family on saturday!

Happy Birthday Bugs!

GOING PRIVATE!

So I'm a little freaked out, I looked at my live feed jet and noticed there are visits from other states, states where I don't know anyone, and they've been clicking on our family pictures to get a "CLOSER" look. So needless to say we're going private.......please leave me your email, and we'll get this done soon. If you're an occasional blog stalker just let me know how you know me or Josh and you too can be invited.

Let me know.....................

LONG TIME NO POST!

So yesterday the boys had Valentine parties at school, so I gave them a little heart attack on their shirts. Cole was sooo embarrassed, after this picture he took every single heart off his shirt and threw them away. I told him he broke my heart and I ripped a heart in half and wore it all day long. Trevor, Jace and Hadi wore their hearts all day too. They thought it was pretty fun!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Josh and I decided to try being spontanious for a minute and bought Jazz tickets for Trevor, Cole Josh and myself. We went up on Wednesday to the Jazz vs. Lakers game and had a blast. We got to the Energy Solutions building early so the boys could wander. We went down on the floor and got some autographs and bought a few souvenir's.JAZZ BABY!

GO, JAZZ, GO

The Jazz didn't play so well, they lost by 15 or 16, but the boys had a great time,

and now they want to go to 1 game every year.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We've had some sick little kids for a week and a half. It started with Cole and he was sick for 4 days, then BOTH hadi and jace got sick on monday and it lasted until last saturday. Talk about a long bout of yuckiness. But all is well again. Thank goodness!!

Poor boy, trying to break his fever with a tubby.

This little girly slept for one whole day, not much drinking or eating took place on this day.
