Our first Christmas in our own home

2011-12-27T21:16:00.013-07:00

This year was so special for our little family- because it was our first Christmas in our own home. We usually are with either my parents, or Joe's parents- both 12 hours away. But not this year (since we finally live by family :)) I was so excited to start our own traditions together.

So with some fun ideas from my amazingly talented sister in law- Lacey, I decided to put together a Christmas morning breakfast.... I mean "Santa" left breakfast for us!!!

It was so much fun to do........

It was so magical when the girls woke up, it made for an absolutely PERFECT Christmas morning :). It will now be a tradition I will continue to do for years to come.

Reindeer heads...

They each had a little gift, new socks! (much needed- they never wore socks in arizona!)

Christmas 2011

2011-12-27T19:37:00.026-07:00

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve- we always go to my aunts house, on my dads side of the family- The girls have fun with their cousins, and we love to visit with Adults-

After we got home, the girls got to open 2 presents- one from mommy and daddy (Christmas pj's) and one from each other (we drew names this year- and the girls LOVED it- They had so much fun shopping for each other)

While they went to bed- Joe and I began building! It was so much fun- It is also a tradition to watch "its a wonderful life" on Christmas Eve- so we mostly listened this year-

They were so excited!! It was so much fun! It was our first Christmas in our own home- so It was amazing! Never again will we travel on Christmas- There is nothing sweeter, than having Christmas in your own home- with your own little family. It was such an amazing beautiful feeling all day.

Santa embroidered Macee a sweatshirt for school, she LOVED IT! Santa is so smart :)

The after math of Christmas....

Joe was in Under armour heaven! He was so happy- he loves (loves is an understatement) under armour!!!

Santa always knows what I love too~ Lots of gift cards, and Kitchen stuff= my perfect Christmas!

Christmas Dinner .....

We always have Prime rib for Christmas Dinner- Yum!! It was so good!

More presents from Grandma and Grandpa!

What a wonderful Christmas, that will never be forgotten.

Home with two ......

2011-11-17T09:25:00.006-07:00

Ever since little Abigail was born, I now feel like I am home with two babies! But Brooky quickly became a big sister, and boy does she know it, and LOVE it!

I've been so busy with my necklace buisness, and teaching bootcamp 5 times a week, I quite often find her "trying" to help her baby sister. Its actually really cute, because she is so good with her, and never wants to hurt her (unlike my other girls were when a new baby came into the picture). I just love it!
And Abigail laughs so much .... only around Brooky! she absolutely loves her!!

Trying to swing with her.....

Sharing her sucker (Abby loved that!)

"Reading" her stories

Trying to put her socks on.....

I love that she wants to help so much already..... I do LOVE that about having girls, they are the best help!

soccer comes to an end

2011-11-15T17:25:00.010-07:00

Macee played on an 8 and under team this year, instead of a 6 and under team, and boy was it a step up from last year! She went from a tiny field, to a full field with full size goals, and playing actual positions.....
I am so glad she got to play on an older team, she improved so much, and she did awesome!
we are so proud of her!!

The little girl behind her, was the only one that was smaller than her!

The other girls loved to play at her games!

Kynzlee also finished soccer, and did SO good! she was our little soccer star! her last game she scored 5 goals! Her daddy was so proud! we still just have to laugh....... 5 goals!
It was so cute :)
Now year-around swimming starts next week! cant wait, practices everyday, for an hour! I LOVE it~ Kynzlee will do it too this year!!

Halloween weekend!

2011-11-05T20:10:00.029-07:00

The girls REALLY wanted to be the chipettes this year for halloween. They LOVE the movie... I dont know if its all the singing and dancing or what, but I though it actually suited them perfect! We had a lot of fun putting it all together, and the girls loved it.

They dont dress up for Halloween at school around here, infact clovis unified just gives them the whole day off, its actually really nice! so instead of dressing up 4 times, we just had to to it 3 times :)

But Kynzlee, since shes in preschool, they got to dress up one day, so she wanted to be a kitty. So we made it a little sassy of course!

We made some sugar cookies to take, and she got to pass them out, she LOVED doing that!

PARTY 1- our ward party

It was really fun, 3 bounce houses, cake walk, games, dj, and of course, Trunk or TrEAT

Party 2- My partents ward party

Also very fun! good food, family, a flash mob broke out (so funny), haunted alley, cake walk, and of course TrUnK or TrEat!

Trick or treat!

After 2 nights in a row painting chip-monk faces, I was kinda done with it! so I told them to just go get dress- ups on! We still had fun, and they always look cute to me :)

The girls had fun drawing faces on their own pumpkins, of course macee did a hello kitty, and daddy cut them out... they turned out so cute.

My Cinderella, Snow White, and Leopard Kitty...

The girls had so much fun Trick Or Treating!

Light the Night Walk

2011-10-31T08:31:00.006-07:00

A year after I was Married, my best friend from High school, April Dockstader, passed away with Leukemia. Every year in Fresno, they have a "Light the night walk", for all those who have passed away, or who have survived. It was a really neat thing, and now that I live close, I get to do it. It was fun to see some friends from high school, as well as Aprils Family. She will always be remembered. And I know I will see her again someday.

So Joe and I took Kynzlee, Brooky, and Abigail, and we all did the walk. We had such a wonderful time. Macee went with her Grandma to a BYU ballroom dance show. They had a good time too. We met up with them later for Ice cream.

my favorite part.....

they love to feed the animals

The hayride is so much fun....it takes them way out in the trees..to a huge pumpkin patch, drops them off, and they pick their pumpkins. Then it brings them back...its actually a long ride, they loved it! they also had a huge hay maze that they spent a lot of time in too...so fun!

they have the cutest ice cream/ candy shoppe... so yummy!...the girls got ice cream, and I of course got fudge :)

after the farm, we drove down to the pier........

and of course, that turned into this!! their crazy! it was freezing! i was wearing a scarf..and the girls were in the water! they didnt care, they had a blast!

so after the beach, we drove up to the outlet mall and we "had" to get the girls new clean , dry, clothes.....darn!:)

then we walked the streets of the beach, looking at all the shops...it was so nice...

and finally, we found a fun restraunt on the beach, ...we ate, then got some frozen yogurt, then drove home. The girls fell asleep 3 minutes into the drive..all 4 of them, and never woke up..... it was the perfect day trip, and we couldn't have asked for better weather. We had such a good time, and look forward to going again soon :). LOVE California!

Kynzlees Birthday weekend

2011-10-08T22:15:00.038-07:00

We have a tradition in our little family...... that when its your birthday.... Daddy brings home doughnuts, and a balloon of your choice. The girls love this tradition! Joe goes to the gym early in the morning, so on his way home he goes and gets sprinkled doughnuts, and the birthday girls favorite charactered balloon. This year Kynzlee wanted fairies! she wanted a fairy party too!

The invitations were sent out! It reads at top " You are invited to Kynzlees 4th Birthday! So use this fairy dust and fly on over to Kynzlees Fairy Princess Party!"

On the day of her birthday, all her little friends came over after pre-school, for her fairy Princess party......

These are wands I made for each little fairy....

My little Princess fairies..

The girls had so much fun.... First we made each little fairy their very own wings.... they turned out so cute!

All the little girls at the party..... They have their wings and crowns on

Thankfully Abigail did this most of the party...

Kynzlee had so much fun with her friends...

My favorite Part.... the cake! I had a lot of fun making her cake.....

I even made her clothes.... so she would match the party, and also have some fairy wings!

Macee and Mackenzie were a HUGE help.... they pretty much ran the party...

The nails station was a huge hit...... I think every girl got their nails painted 3 times!!

She got so many fun things! she LOVED opening her presents!

Each little fairy got to take home this little goody bag, which consisted of a "fairy" braclet that the girls and I made.. blonde or brunette, depending on what color hair she had.... and inside, all of Kynzlees favorite candy: Dots, skittles, and bubblegum suckers.

They got to take a wand too :)

After the party we all went out to eat with Grandma and Grandpa, and Great- Grandma!

It was so yummy...... Kynzlees choice.... mexican food!!

The next day, Kynzlee took princess sugar cookies to her pre-school. I would have done it the day of her birthday, but with her party being the same day.... it was just too much.

She loves her preschool friends........

Brooky got to play with all her new toys while she was away at school :) she was very busy.......

On Sunday we had a "family" party.......

We cant belive how fast our little girl has grown! she is such a big girl now. Kynzlee is such a joy to have, she makes us laugh every day. She has the funniest sense of humor, and the cutest personality. We are thankful to have her in our family.

Soccer and Gymnastcs...

2011-10-01T16:16:00.017-07:00

Once school started..... so did Gymnastics and Soccer!! WOW! We have been so busy!! Its good though... and the girls love being busy! they both LOVE gymnastics.... and are getting better and better at soccer!

They take Gym at Tumble America

I just got a pic of kynzlee... because Joe takes Macee to gym. AND its a little blurry.... she moves around way to much... and I couldn't get one that was clear. Its the cutest Gym though...
The girls love it! Kynzlees favorite thing is the beam and bars, Macee loves the bars and the trampoline.

Macee before soccer practice.... Joe says too much pink..... I disagree. Never too much pink :)

Game day!

My favorite part about soccer....

Macee is doing really well, she play's on an 8 and under team.... so the girls are almost all 7 and 8... but she todally keeps up, and is doing so great.

Kynzlee after her soccer game....

Pep talk from daddy!

Kynzlee shocked us at her first game!! she did so good, and is SO fast!! we just laughed, because this was her almost the entire time.... way out in front with the ball, taking it down the field. She is one determined little girl.... and super competitive! Her daddy was SO proud :).

Brooky on the sidelines......

Sweet find

2011-05-16T16:42:00.002-07:00

We have been looking for a kitchen table for a while now.... something that seats 7-8. Well, we were very patient... and we found one we loved! the best part.. .. it was $200 dollars! we just happened to be at the right place at the right time. The chairs are leather... and the table a solid wood... with not one scratch... perfect condition. We really wanted a bench... in this case... we got a few! The seats can be all together... like booth style... or they can be seperate. We feel very bleesed.

Macees birthday Party

2011-05-10T20:00:00.018-07:00

Macee really wanted a Hello Kitty birthday party this year. Well, being pregnant with number 4, I really wanted an easy party.. (meaning I didn't want to have to do anything). I was really not feeling up to throwing a HUGE party, like we usually do. So she got to invite a few friends... and we went to Johns Incredible pizza! It was so much fun.... and I didn't have to do anything! No cooking, no mess.... it was WONDERFUL!
First they ate... all you can eat pizza!
Then we hit the floor for about an hour and a half! there was so much to do... and the kids had a BLAST! needless to say... I was able to tie some hello kitty stuff in there.....
Macee LOVED everything!

BOWLING!

BUMPER CARS!

GAMES!

RIDES!

PRESENTS!

Macee really wanted a Leapster Explorer! she was so happy to get one... and she LOVES it! she got lots of other cute things too! she was very happy!

AND OF COURSE CAKE! I loved how her cake turned out!

They each got to take home a little goodie bag. Some hello kitty nick nacks....some candy, and I made them each a different colored bracelet.

Happy Birthday Macee!

2011-05-07T20:42:00.008-07:00

Our sweet little Macee turned 6 on Wednesday. She was so excited this year for her Birthday. She woke up to a room full of balloons... then Daddy brought home doughnuts and more balloons, after the Gym. At school, they got to go to the park for a "teddy bear picnic". The girls and I brought cupcakes to share. Later that evening we had her Birthday party at Johns incredible pizza! The kids had so much fun! She got to invite a few friends. I will post pictures of her party... I'm just currently looking for the camera.

I had some fun taking pictures with her birthday outfit ....

And the other girls Kept trying to squeeze in!

Macee is such a joy to have. She is so much fun to be around, and she is such a sweet, good little girl. We love her so much!

Happy Spring :)

Kynzlee wont wear headbands.... but I found a way to make it work still...

Sunday morning before church, we went to my parents stake conference, since L. Tom Perry was there.... and we got there at 9...... so they look a little sleepy...

The Conference was amazing!
