then off to see our FAVORITE whale....

SEAWORLD here we come.

Yes, as you can tell we had so much FUN. The kids just LOVE this place! Now Jorie wants to swim with the dolphins, she asks everyday. :) I wish I would have set that up before we went but I didn't. Needless to say, we will be going back shortly so she can do that. I promised her so we will be making a date here soon. Here are a few pics of our day...........

Flowers, Flowers, and more Flowers

We just got off of our "Spring Break" and one of the places we got to visit was the Fields of Flowers. This place was truly breath taking! We were there on such a Beautiful day, it couldn't have been better. It was so much fun for the kids they, were given a passport and found all the stations to receive their stamps for them. It was to CUTE! Let's just say mom was having so much fun with the camera....(as you can tell) . I took way to many pictures I think the kids were getting bored with me saying "say Sticky feet", "say Candy", say YES"...etc. Sorry kids:)

I truly am blessed with a healthy and happy family! Life is GREAT!!!!

Dear, Tooth Fairy

It's the little things in life.....
My baby girl just lost her first tooth last night:) I know my kids have a "NERD" for a mom but it brought tears to my eyes when my little princess came running in the room last night to tell me her tooth came out. ( I'm tearing up as I write this) She was most definitely ready for this but mom was not. This just reinforces the fact that she is growing up, I'm not ready for that. She was so happy, I cant even begin to tell you how long she has been waiting, she was the last person in her class to loose a tooth. She woke up early in the morning to find that the tooth fairy left her a note, her tooth and ten dollars!

I LOVE you Jorie Riece!!

What a BEAUTIFUL day...

It was really a treat to have our wonderful weather back today!! I just LOVE spring time! It turned out to be another great Easter, the kids had so much FUN and got spoiled as usual. They were so excited for today, I just LOVE to see the smiles on their little faces. :)

We hope everyone had a great easter!

Lov'in those BOYS in my life....

Trust with dirt on its face,
Beauty with a cut on its finger,
Wisdom with bubble gum in its hair,
and the hope of the future with
A frog in its pocket.

I really am fortunate to have these "BOYS" in my life. I ADORE them!!! They mean the WORLD to me and I couldn't imagine life without them. Priceless memories and I wouldn't trade them for anything.....

"Oh Mr Sun, Sun......

Mr Golden Sun, Please Shine Down On ME"

My little Princess had her performance at school on Friday. She was so excited to sing, she even got out of bed at 6:30 am and she NEVER wants to get out of bed in the morning. ( I think she gets that from her mom )
Her class did such a good job singing this ADORABLE song. It was just Too Too CUTE! The song went with the weather for the day, I thought that it couldnt have been more perfect!

Tulips

I wanted to share my all time favorite flower that my oh so dear friend gave me for my B-day. Thank you so much Robin! :) Your friendship means so much to me. You are what you call an amazing friend.

Now back to the B word....WOW! I'm getting old.....I dont want to get old :) I guess the best thing about it is that I am living my ultimate dream. I feel so lucky to have found the most INCREDIBLE husband and us together (with help from GOD) create the most WONDERUL family. Our children mean the WORLD to me! For selfish reasons, I would just LOVE to stop time and live in this forever. I LOVE being able to say that I am married to my BEST friend and I LOVE knowing that I will be spending the rest of my life with him by my side. I LOVE you Baby!!!
I was really sad about being in my 30's because my 20's where awesome but im beginning to think that its not going to be all that bad :) Life gets better everyday and I greatly appreciate everything the lord has blessed me with.

Brennan's 4th birthday!

This Last weekend we celebrated my baby boy's birthday. I cant even begin to think that it has been 4 years since I gave birth to him. I want to embrace his littleness as long as I can. He always tell's me that he is NOT a baby anymore, he is a "BIGBOY", it hurts me to hear that.
We had his party at the Jump Zone and WOW was that easy. They handled everything and I didnt even have to worry about the mess afterwards. He had a total BLAST! We want to thank everyone that was able to make it and let you know how truly we are blessed to have you for our friends and family.

Jumpin into his 4th year!

Like father like son.....

Look at this crazy weather my husband was working in last week. This was him on the pole. (YES, he climbed up that pole) He works in the desert and can you believe they got over 12 inches of snow. I guess its a good thing he likes it cold because I just couldnt do it. I guess Im just a wimp like that. Our little guy wants to be just like dad. I LOVE it!

5th annual PalmSprings Christmas Parade

We went to Palmsprings for the Christmas Parade for the 5th year in a row with the Muller Family. We have made it a ritual to go with them and we always have so much fun. We enjoy dinner together and then watch the parade while sipping hot cocoa. We havent seen them since the parade and we really miss them. These girls have grown up together and just look how BIG they are getting! We have so much LOVE for these girls!

Were traveling little monkeys.....

This last month, we decided to take a road trip with two of the most amazing families. I cant even begin to tell you how much FUN we had. We all went to Sedona, Az for a few days and then went on to Williams, Az to catch the Polar Express with Santa. The kids all had so much FUN, what an experience! Believe it or not, everything went real smooth and we had NO problems along the way. One of the highlights I would have to say would be the pink jeep tour we all took. That was a total BLAST! (If you are ever in Sedona that is a MUST!) Over all, the whole entire trip was a life time experience full of great memories. I want to thank the Nelson and Wolfe Family, your friendship means alot to our family. I have put together a few pictures of our trip............

Our Little snow man....

T

The kids had an absolute BLAST with the Snow that came down at our house! We dont get it often but when we do, it looks amazingly BEAUTIFUL! We played in it for awhile and actually had a snow ball fight (we even had our grammy in on it). The kids thought that it was so much fun! The next morning the kids wanted to get up and make a snow man, not much snow was left but as you can see they managed to create an adorable little guy. I had to post a pic because I thought that they did a GREAT job especially doing it all on their own. Hopefully this is not the last of it for the season.

Getting bigger every day.......

WOW! Where does time go???? My prides of joy are growing right before my eyes. These are our most recent family pics and I just LOVE the way they turned out.
