Last Hurrah before school Starts....Trip to Northern California

Well I finally have some fun things to post. It has been a awhile and I have missed it. We took the family to Santa Rosa Calif. with my mom and my sister Aimee and fam for one last hurrah before school started. My cute little grandma lives there along with my Aunt and my cousin and family. Usually my 2 sisters, my mom and I go and have a little girls getaway but this year the husbands decided it would be fun to make it a family trip to visit. It was a long drive for such a short stay but we loved it. My grandma is 92 years old(if you can believe that) and we wanted the kids to be able to see her and remember her. We were able to spend a few days with her and we also took the kids to Traintown, Armstrong Grove(Redwoods), the ocean and San Francisco. It was a busy trip but fun nonetheless. The kids didn't want to come home and neither did I. We took so many cute pics that I had a hard time choosing so hope there aren't too many.

New naptime place

Preston came home after a long day at Grandmas and decided he was tired. Kent was calling for him and found him under the living room chair where our cat likes to hide and sleep. kent asked him what he was doing and he said he was tired and wanted to sleep. So....he fell asleep under the chair. Too funny!


Preston aka...P-Diddy put on his sisters jacket and sunglasses and struck the gangster pose all on his own.

Bathtime with Preston

I just had to share these cute pics of Preston after his bath. I have this problem with having to put lotion on him after his bath and he hates it. He was being so cute and was willing to pose for the camera so I had to take them. He is too cute and so fun to play around with.

Due West/Joseph Smith Nashville Tribute

On July 23rd Kent and I and my sister Aimee and her husband Theron went to Bellas for dinner and an outdoor concert. The concert was Due West which was awesome and The Nashville Tribute to Joseph Smith and Trek. It was awesome not to mention that sme of those men were pretty darn cute. Mindy Gledhill was there also and sang a few songs. It was all in all a fun night. If you haven't heard these CD'S it is well worth the time and money spent. Love them!!

HAPPY 12TH ANNIVERSARY

Wow!! It is amazing to me that it has been 12 years since Kent and I were married. It is so fun to look back at pictures and see the difference from then to now. Out of those 12 great years we have been blessed with 4 amazing children and a ton of other wonderful memories. I am grateful to Kent for being the husband, friend and father that he is. It is true when they say that you blink and your kids are grown up but I think it is also true that you can blink and you will have been married 10, 15-20 years before you know it. Cherish the moments and enjoy eachother because we never know what tomorrow brings. I love you Kent and look forward to many more great years and memories.

What do you remember about me?

1. Comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

Happy 11th Birthday Kassidy

I can't believe Kassidy is 11 years old and heading off to 6th grade. It truly seems like yesterday when I sent her off to Kindergarten. She has grown into a such a fun, cute young lady. She is full of fun and energy and is such a great help to me. We love having her in our family. Happy birthday sweetie!!

She had a few of her good friends over to spend the night and go swimming. They thought it would be fun to swim in their clothes and then it turned to sports bras.

Haley could not wait to open presents as she was so proud of her gift. I think she was more excited than Kassidy. She fell over in excitement when she saw it. It was pretty funny.
