Kyle's Half Birthday

Since Kyle's birthday is four days after Christmas we decided to celebrate it in the summer when we have more of the funds to do a Birthday party. We had some friends and family over for a water party and we enjoyed pizza. Kyle thought opening presents were so fun. I just love buying toys for my kids. Bryanna was so excited to play with Kyle new toys too. He got some new cars. One of them go by themselves it is his favorite. What a fun day he was so cute.

This is Kyle's new car that he goes around the house. The horn sounds really funny.
He thinks it is so fun. He has figured out that he can put toys inside it which is really
fun for him.

Kyle playing with Abby in the water. He didn't like the idea that I
put him in the water. He likes water but wants to do it on his own. He is
a dare devil when it comes to playgrounds. But is very careful around water. What
a funny kid.

This picture was his idea of playing.

He thought opening presents was so much fun. He didn't want
anybody helping him.

Dance Recital

Bryanna had her dance recital at the beginning of June. She did a really good job and it was so much fun to watch her. I can't believe that my little girl is this big. She is getting pretty good at it.

Here they are dancing away. She loved her costume this year.

She loves to poise and dance around the house.
It has been so good for her.

This was their favorite dance because they got
to shake it. It was so fun to see. Man she can move.

Surgery Again

My sweet little baby Kyle had to have another surgery done. This time they took out his adenoids. He has had 5 sinus infections since December. It is cycle that we go through. They put him in antibotics for at least 20 days because 10 days doesn't help. Then we have a week or two that is good and then it builds up again and the fever sets in and we are back at the doctors. So they finally decided it was time to figure something out. I hope this helps the poor little guy. Well here is the good part I got Kyle home from the hospital and then I sent Bryan to the doctors because his allergies have been really bad. We find out the Bryan has strep throat. Isn't that fun to bring home my boy from the hospital only to find out his dad has been so sick too. I felt really bad because Bryan had a fever of 104. The poor guy. So the last couple days had been really fun with two sick boys. I am just hoping that Bryanna and I don't get it. Well there is our fun couple days. I will have to get some pictures of the kids up soon.

Last Day of School

On the last day of school Bryanna had a sleepover with some of her friends. Danielle and Chloe came over for a party. They had so much fun. Bryanna was so cute she had all these activities planned for her friends. They had a tea party, movie, games outside and of course treats. They even went to sleep believe it or not. We mad a big bed on the family room floor.


Bryanna is saying let the party begin.......

This is Bryanna's teacher this year. Her name is Cherie Penrod.
She is an amazing teacher and was so good to Bryanna. She helped her out in
so many ways. We feel very lucky to have her as her teacher this year. Bryanna said that she is going to miss her this summer. I can't believe that my little girl is done with first grade. It seems like they grow up so fast.

This is Bryanna's very good friend from school Charlie. She is really
good for Bryanna. I am glad that Bryanna has some good friends. Now we are on to the busy days of summer. I hope Bryanna won't be too bored.

New play set

This year we bought a new play set for the kids. It is bigger and has monkey bars which Bryanna was so excited about. This play set took us two weeks to put together. Bryan and I were pretty red by the time we were done. It is so fun to have some fun toys for the kids to play on. Bryanna loves to have her brother play in the club house part with her. All her friends think it is so fun to come over and play.

The cute kids helping mom and dad find all the pieces.

Bryan making the club house.

Zack come over to help us finish and they wanted to eat outside.
They both look so tired. It was a long day play and building.

Crazy May

This month has been a crazy one. I have felt like I have been on a roller coaster my self. May is such a hard month for me and then you add everything else in and it makes it so much fun. The first of May was Mother's day. I have such a hard time with this holiday with my mom not being here. I don't know why this was so hard. It has been almost eight years since my mom past away. Maybe it is because this year has been a rocky year with Kyle being so sick and everything. Then we did a ton of yard work. We got a new play set for the kids and it took us a couple weeks to put together. One day we spent the whole day outside Bryan and I were both red by the time we came in. Then I had to get everything ready for preschool graduation. I worked so hard on the yard to get it the way I wanted it. There were a couple days I couldn't even walk. My knees and hips were so sore. I don't know what is going on with my knees but I have a feeling it is not good. Then the weather decided to be raining and I had to do the program inside. So on that day I had to clean my whole house since I had to use the whole thing for the program. Well the program went good it was tight inside the house but the preschool kids did such a cute job. The next day I couldn't walk again because I had to move things around and I was so sore again. Well I have had a few days of calm before things get busy again, but at least I can say my body feels normal again. Now I get to give the RS lesson on Sunday which makes me think more of my mom. Well I will be glad when May is over and life will go back to normal. I am just so glad for family.

This Easter was so much fun. Kyle was so funny. He thought when you
put an egg in you were suppose to take another one out. It was so funny. He
thought the whole easter egg hunt thing was fun.
Kyle's fun toys that he got for Easter. You can kind of see a
smile. Bryanna was so excited about easter that she woke him up.
Bryanna and her fun toys. She loved easter and loves getting new suprises. The
Easter bunnny leaves the toys all over the house. She thinks it is great getting all the
Easter eggs too. The joy of a child.


Bryanna doing her favorite part of Easter. Coloring easter eggs. We did it when Kyle was asleep I didn't want to mess with it with a baby around. Bryanna loves coloring the eggs. This year we made glitter eggs they were so fun. Holidays are so much fun with kids. I love watching them get so excited over the littlest things. My kids just make my life so complete........
