Finn's 2nd Birthday!

We celebrated Finn's 2nd Birthday yesterday and he had such a great day! We started his day off with "Birthday boy, Birthday boy, here comes the Birthday boy". Then opening presents, which he loved. He did get his "Car's" car that he has been wanting for weeks now. He's talked about it for days and had many melt downs in stores over it. He played with his presents all day and then yesterday afternoon it was off to go see Car's the movie (I was a little disappointed in it) and then home to have Car's cake. We love our little Finn!

Bestest Dad!

I do want to give a shout out to the BEST dad EVER!! Jordan is so good with the boys and so wonderful to me. Happy Father's Day Jordan!! WE love you!!

Our boys are full of so much energy, as you may know if you have been around then for half a second. Our summer thus far has consisted of swimming at the lake a few times, swimming at the pool more than a few times, camping, playing in the back yard (it's usually after the sun has gone down since it's starting to get flamin' hot down here, and always water involved), eating popsicles, pada zobell and gamma visiting and just having fun.

Family Visit

Two weeks ago we had our annual girls weekend at my house. It's something my sisters and I look forward to the whole year. We get together for a long weekend and shop, eat, sew and just enjoy being together. We had such a great time eating out at the Olive Mill here in Queen Creek, shopping in Scottsdale and finishing some fun projects here at the house. Eliza and my mom stayed the next week, that was nice to have them stay alittle longer because the weekend always seems to go by just too fast. Jet loved playing with Mave, he followed Eliza around the house because he wanted to be close to them and he always would say to Eliza "can I play with Mave?" He's a good big brother.

Easter Sunday

We could not get the boys to smile for us this morning before we headed off to church, this was the best they had. They sure looked cute though.


We had a fun Easter Egg hunt this morning as the boys woke up, they also went on a "I spy" hunt through the house to find treats and a small gift. It was pretty fun, Finn just loved carrying around the Easter basket.

We also dyed Easter eggs this week, Jet LOVED it. He's very creative and loves doing anything that involves using different colors. He did a great job.

It looks like I never dress my kids, they do wander the house often in their undies, but we like to be comfie and it is starting to get HOT here. :)

The BOYS!

Here's a little look into what Jet and Finn's days mostly consist of. Climbing or jumping on anything they can find and then usually the day ends with Finn looking like this, minus the BIG nose, but the tear is pretty accurate. Here's a quick recap of Finn's nose...... Jet was jumping on one end of his skate board so that it would toss up a toy that he had strategically placed on the other end. Just as he's about to do this Finn walks right over by the skate board and the tip of it came flying up and hit him square in the nose. It was swollen within a minute or two and he screamed SO loud. I felt so bad for the poor kid, you know how bad it hurts when you get your nose hit.... I called Jord asked him if I should take him in. He chatted with the Dr's at work and they said to watch him. He was fine, just a big swollen nose for a few days.

Catching Up

We had such a FUN Christmas morning. Lot's of great surprises for us and the kids.

Christmas Dinner at Gary and Gin's.

When Jordan's parent's came in December we took the kids to the Children's Museum in Phoenix. It was a blast!! Who knew how much fun stuff they had. I would highly recommend it.

We went roller skating a couple weeks ago with one of Jordan's co-workers. Jet was so determined to not have any help roller skating. He did a great job, he did also ask if we could take the skates home with us.

Jet and his buddy Rhett and of course Finn decorated cookies for Valentines Day. Jet's got a very creative and artistic side to him. This is one of his many masterpeices :)

My birthday dinner at Joe's BBQ in Gilbert. It was SOOO good!

We went hiking at picancho peak for our Anniversary, 6 years Febuary 18th. It was a pretty crazy hike, most of it you had to hold onto wire cord's to climb up these steep rocks. I was suprised I did it for being scared of heights.
