Preschool Grad

He made it!

Carson had his last day of preschool and I want to know how that came so fast. He really liked "Mrs. Connie" and her rabbits and that she let him color with markers. (Mom never lets him use markers, hmmm I wonder why). He liked her cats too. Maybe I should put him in a petting zoo for the summer since he could only tell me about the animals everyday. She is a very patient teacher. Not only patient with the kids but with the mommies that stand out in her garage in blizzards and rain to get one last glimpse of their baby's face before the door closes. Not me! Carson loves to run up the stairs so fast that I gave up that whole clingy thing and let him be a big kid. He has done great and is so excited to hang with his friend James next year.

Grandma Dorothy's 86th Birthday Party!!!

Sugar for the kids, snoozes for the birthday girl. It was so sweet to see all the kids gently hugging their great grandma and bringing
her cards they made.

Singing sweetly?!?! It was Maddie's birthday also so we had two cakes and lots of blowing out candles.

Audry and Callie found their own fun.

Way cute Mamas and sweet new babies!

We had such a fun time. Thanks for putting such a fun party together everyone.

A photo journey

Ok so that is my cheesiest title ever but if you watch "So you think you can dance" you giggle a little.

Chet got me a new camera for Mothers Day and I have so many fun shots to share. Here goes

This was on Mothers Day at my moms house. I was running around like a chicken with my head chopped off and he was taking care of the baby. He is such a good Daddy.

This is Codie, my neice Tawnee, her b-friend and my neice Melanie and her little girl Rylee is in the corner.

These are the flowers my cute husband brought me in front of my whole family when I was not expecting anything. Boy did he get bonus points from everyone in the room. He is very non-romantic but every once in a while he gets it right for a moment.

Isn't this what makes being a mom the greatest job in the world. Seeing my children sleep, stops my frantic mind with peace.

I love being a mom.

Our yard is looking like a yard!

Amazing!!!

Our yard has transformed from dirt heaven to St. George Style landscape. If I squint I would swear I was on the 9th hole in St George basking in the red rock heat. It is still a work in progress but so much nicer. Can't wait till we have our first barbecue with out a mouthful of grit in my hamburger.

Our little Callie didn't love crawling on the grass at first but she is getting better and I think it makes her want to walk and stand more.

Tonight after dinner we went out and laid on a blanket and let the kids act crazy until bedtime. I even got on the trampoline with them and played "crack the egg" .

You forget how nice having a yard is until you do without. It is so great to have a yard again.

Scrappin fools
