Family Pictures

Here is a sneek peek of our family pictures! Thanks Amy for the awesome job you always do!!

Mother's Day

I'm so grateful that I have an AMAZING husband and the most cutest girls in the world. David and the girls got me a dozen roses and total fitness watch that keeps track of my distance, speed, calories burned, etc. I'm super excited to use it. Now I just need to learn how to program it and I'm on my way. David and the girls also made me chocolate chip pancakes... so yummy!

I had the greatest Mother's Day!

The Suprise of Mother's Day

My Husband with a couple of his buddies planned a great adventure for their wives for Mother's Day. David packed up the car and our lunches, jackets, and goodies, and we headed up the mountain to Lake Hemet for a family picnic. We had a great time besides all the wind. The kids had fun exploring the lake and flying kites while the mommies enjoyed the yummy food their husbands packed and relaxed.

2010 Iron Girl 10K

As most of you know I have been training for the Disneyland Half Marathon and today was my first race of all time. Let me just tell you all I am NOT a runner. I never have enjoy running, and I never thought that I could be a runner. But, this year has been different! I wanted to get healthy for myself and for my family, and I enjoyed running in college to get away from all the stresses and just go. My Bishop encouraged me to get a hobby so I picked running to see if it would give me the same benefit like in college, and it is working like a charm. I have never pushed myself so hard, and now here I am running mile upon mile. I have asked a couple of friends to join me, and their response is always... I'm not a runner! I can't do that! and my response to anyone who thinks they can't run... just try it. You are the ONLY person who can push yourself. Start making small goals so you can reach your larger goals. Here is one of my smaller goals the Del Mar Iron Girl 10K. Now I'm an Iron girl! Before the race pumping myself up!

Sunday with the girls

Oh how I LOVE matching dresses! Thanks Jean for the cute dress Krislynn has on. It used to be Lizzie's, and thanks Andrea for Lizzie's dress!

We go visit Dadddy for lunch

We decide one day to go surprise David at work and take him to lunch. We ended up at the Spaghetti Factory and had a great time. Lizzie loves to go there and see the trolley "Train" Hooray for dates with Daddy!

Lizzie's new thing

Whenever Lizzie can't figure something out or she just doesn't want to try....she says," Mom I'm too busy!" I guess I say that way too much!

Oh Busy Lizzie!

Homemade Playdough... lots of fun!!!

We love playdough! So today we decided to make some homemade playdough

Here is the recipe:

Ingredients: • 1 1/4 cup flour • 1/4 cup salt • 1 pkg unsweetened Kool-aid (just the dry koolaid, don't mix it into juice) • 1 cup boiling water • 1 1/2 Tbsp vegetable oil

Directions: 1. In a bowl, mix flour, salt and kool-aid. 2. Stir in water and oil 3. Knead with hands for about 5 minutes. 4. Store in ziploc bag for up to 2 months. 5. Use like playdough. 6. Smells wonderful and takes on the color of the koolaid.

Hours of fun!!!!

The Eating Machine!!!!

Mohawks and Giggles!

The other day at Oma and Papa's house we got a little bored, and wanted all the girls to have mohawks. I know.... but aren't they the cutest mohawks you have ever seen? Lizzie hasn't been in the mood to pose lately, but she has a killer mohawk.

I just need one!

My SUPER CUTE girls!

Oh how I love this little girl.
These girls just bring a smile to my face. I love that they are so close in age and of course will be the bestest of friends. Thanks Marla for giving Krislynn the coolest best friend a girl could ever ask for. I love Camille in this picture... her mohawk is sick!

Thanks girls for all the giggles and being such good sports! We love you!

Enrichment Night-Rebekah

For our Enrichment in March a couple ladies in our ward were asked to portray different women from the Bible, and I was Rebekah. Don't you just love my outfit... I didn't have to pay a penny for it thanks to the young women in our ward. It was an amazing night where our hearts could be touched while helping us become better sisters of Zion.

We got to celebrate one more time before our pass expired to Disneyland, and we had a great time! The weather was perfect, the crowds weren't too bad, and Lizzie and Krislynn FINALLY got to ride Dumbo the Flying Elephant. What more could you ask for right? We are sad that our pass expired, but at least we had a great year at Disneyland. Thanks Mickey!!!
