Happy Birthday Crew-zer!!

On Saturday Crew had his 2nd Birthday! He has grown up way too fast, but is still so small and sweet. I think it's a ritual for a mom to show pictures of their baby from birth until now; I haven't uploaded his birthday pics yet, so I'll just show what I have on the computer. I'll post the birthday party later this week.
I love you little man, you are so smart and kind hearted. You always know how to make me smile, with your cute little giggles and sweet bear hugs. Happy Birthday, your mom, dad, and sister love you very very much!

Memory Lane

Sometimes it's fun to look through old pictures and recall fond memories. Post a few old pictures and tell us what's going on!
Mountain Biking at the Grand Canyon. This picture was taken right before I tried to make a jump and popped my front tire. Got some really bad trail rash on my elbow too!

Visiting Grandma and Keith near Park City, Utah. This was my first time ever going up there, it was sooo pretty! We had lunch at a little diner, very cute.

Swimming at Sand Hallow Reservoir, St. George, Utah. Chris bet me that he could beat me swimming from land to a rock island... I had to swim him to the shore half-way through! Poor guy, he just couldn't keep up!

Visiting Las Vegas, in front of the Bellagio! I was still living in Houston during this photo. I had helped Chris move back to Utah by driving 24 hours straight! I took a flight from Vegas to Houston that connected in Phoenix, and I surprised my sis and dad and met them for lunch!

Chasing Birds

It amazes me how the kids can find something so simple to entertain themselves. Crew spent most of the time at the park yesterday just chasing the birds that would land on the ground. So cute!

Train Park Birthday Party

Yesterday we were invited to a birthday party at this wonderful train park in Scottsdale. It was so fun, the weather was amazing, and the kids had a blast! When we first got there all Crew wanted to do was watch the construction going on in the street next to the park. Kaylee had a great time playing on all the playground equipment, especially the little town that was built for kids.

We decorated sand buckets, ate lunch, played with bubbles, and even ate yummy cupcakes!

Kaylee and Crew rode the carosel and loved every second of it.


Lastly we rode the train that took us around the park, Kaylee rode in the cattle wagon, as did most of the little kiddos, but Crew stayed with me in the open part. Thanks again for inviting us, we had a blast!

Happy Easter!

Yesterday was a great and glorious day. We celebrated the Resurrection of Jesus, and got to be with family too! We decorated the Easter Eggs. Kaylee and Crew had a great time doing this... their hands were dyed for awhile!






All dressed up for Church...


Easter Egg hunt at Grandma and Grandpa's house!





Crew really loved finding the eggs, he would shout for joy every time he found another one. Kaylee was fast, but I told her that she had to find the hidden ones first, so Crew could find some too.




It was a great Easter, but I definitely missed my sister and brother and their families. I will see you guys next weekend I am sure!

Hangin' with my Homies!


On Saturday I held a mini-reunion at my house for all of my old BEST-Buddies. It was amazing that all of us were there! We brought out old silly pictures, and laughed so hard! Some of these friends go way back to 5th grade! We had a great little BBQ and wrapped it up with some fun games. What a night! I think we will have to make this a monthly event!
