Buildin' Bears

We took trax to the gateway with my mom and Grandma Kay to get the kids build-a-bear.
This is alot of work do not let these pictures fool you the kids were super wild and way excited for these bears so it took lots of patients and adults....

Brylee could not stay in one place on the train, it was amazing that she stopped for me to snap this picture!

Brylee chose a horse and named her "Free" she chose everything by herself this is when she gave Free her heart and a kiss then she got to put it inside and sew her up....
Corbin pushing the fluffer pedal to give his bear some shape, all 3 of the boys chose army bears

TADAAAH....there all finished, I'm sure they will all make great parents......

Swimmin' at Pat's

Food,Family and Water what else do we need...we went out to Pat's house and swam with all of the kids we only planned on staying until 2 so I guess that we were having to much fun cause we pulled out of their dirveway at 615...

Grandpa Andy and Mima



We went to visit Mima and Grandpa Andy, the kids love it there they get lots of attention and treats not to mention they live in the "secret garden" so they love to wonder around and explore...

I love the toys that Mima has they are the simple toys that make kids use their imaginations and do not require batteries...

Happy Birthday to ME....


So it was my Birthday and I like to think of it as a big deal...yes even though I am turning 26 I just want everything to go smooth and just right for that one day...So the started out just any other day however I knew that Ryan had something planned for me just not sure when, so I went to lunch with my Mom, Grandma Kay and my Kidos since Ryan had to work until 7 I figured we would have dinner plans so I ate an early lunch so I would be hungry enough for dinner....well we went to Ryan's parents house so we could drop off the kids so we could make our reservations. When I walked in Ryan's sister had made her stuffed manicotti which is fantastic so it made me super hungry and anxious for dinner anyways we left to dinner and Ryan tell me to guess where we are going and starts driving into Ogden so I think Prairie Schooner because I HATE HATE the timbermine so then he tell me nope the Timbermine!!! Yuck I thought does this man not even know me? so I try not to act mad which I can not do well, then the kicker Ryan says I forgot my wallet...Oh my heck now I have to pay for my own dinner so I go for my wallet and it is not in my purse and I think that I have been robbed! so we turn around and head home to get my wallet I just wanted to go to bed by now Ryan has really done it and completely ruined my birthday....I hold it all in until 2 blocks from my house and I couldn't fight back my emotions and I started to cry and then Ryan tries to say sorry and I just ignored him and jumped out of the car and head inside our house....Then to my surprise I open my back gate and there was music playing and candles lite everywhere...Oh how dumb did I feel so then I cried so more and he had it all planned that his sister would cook that dinner which I love, steel my wallet and give my a fantastic surprise..What a guy huh? Thank you babe you are the best and I love you...
