Happy 9th Birthday Jessica

What do you do when you turn 9!? You go indoor skydiving! Jessica is the big 9 and Jake told me "don't be cheap Fran, do something fun." Fine you meaner, so I invited the coolest kids on the block made reservation to fly and to eat at the Hardrock cafe. I think it turned out wonderful, we had some last minute flyers that shocked my socks off to the point of tears. These group of kids are a perfect bunch, they look out after each other, there is the occasional disagreement but ends with a hug and back    

to playing. I have more pictures but in all it was a fun night. I was concerned by the late night but it was worth it. Especially when Gunner danced for us!!!!

mothers day 2013

Today was really fun with the family. Church in the morning where the kids made crafts and the moms got a break. After church we went to my inlaws for dinner and just hung out. Jessica was able to get an early birthday present from her daddy (bike) which her face was priceless and cute. The day before we vistited with my mom and went to dinner with my inlaws.
I am so grateful for my children they are keeping me busy and I love all the moments we have even when I get stressed. These four munchkins are everything to me~

Easter

Easter was busy as usual but very fun. I got to go to breakfast with my mom then head to Joes for some horse riding, egg hunting, food eating fun. People were so partied out they were falling asleep everywhere. The kids loved the horses and wanted to ride them over and over. Kaelyn did get bucked off but got right back on.

catch up

Don't mess with Talia, she's cute when she sleeps~

I'm behind like crazy with this blog, there has been just no time to sit and breathe. These are some pictures from a trip with Melinda to the arboretum. Such a beautiful place to go, the kids love the peacocks and running down the trails. This was fun getting the kids together and being able to see one of my best friends.

Sunday parkway

I am really hoping that every Sunday this becomes a habit. Neal and Dan started this off by sending a mass text to everyone to come to the park and hand out on Sunday later after church and continued doing it for a few weeks and it has not become something I really look forward to. My kids love playing and the park is just perfect. It's defiantly relaxing and great to just sit and talk with the families and laugh. If this is a little taste to what summer will be like I am beyond excited about it.
