WE'RE BACK!

Hey Everyone!

We are back from CA! We had a great time visiting with everyone and relaxing! We left on Thursday and came home on Sunday night/early Monday morning. We have figured out that it is a lot easier to travel home at night when the kids can sleep the whole way home, peace and quiet! We were going to go and visit Alma but he had to come home and take care of some things which was okay, we will just catch him next time! The baby shower went great there were alot of people and it was really nice. Ethan got pecked in the chest by a pet rooster that was there, which was uncomfortable for him but he is okay! The kids had a great time staying with Grandma and playing with her! Olivia loved following the dog everywhere, and Ethan watched Star Wars the whole time it seemed like! Alexia was a big help to us which is always nice. Whenever we go to visit Jason's mom it seems like endless pampering and she is awesome. My mom let us borrow her car to travel down there and I am so thankful for her. She does so much for us and we love her lots! When we came home the kids were excited to see her. Jason's mom is such a great grandma and a wonderful mother in law! I am so blessed to have my mom so close by and who is always there to lend us a helping hand and my mother in law who is always there for us we wished she lived closer! Both grandma's spoil our kids with love and affection and we are truly blessed! I am also blessed to have my family live close by and for the love and support they have given Jason and I. They are always willing to watch our kids or do whatever we may need! Both Jason's family and my family are truly wonderful and we love all of you!

FUN LITTLE WEEKEND

Hey Everyone!

Sorry it has taken me so long to update, this past week was pretty busy. Jason had to take some classes in town and then he had to take a test on Saturday. We cleaned the church on Friday night, I prepared for my lesson that I had to teach on Sunday and Jason had to go to town early Saturday morning to take his test which I do believe he passed. He was pretty stressed out about it! On Sunday we went to church, came home changed our clothes and went to visit Jason's grandparents. Jason's dad was there along with Jason's older sister Maria and her daughter Isabel. We had a great time visiting with everyone and it was great to see everyone, because they live so far away. Maria and Isabel were able to come to our house to visit for a little while which was great. Maria cut my hair which I absolutley love! My mom and I took Maria and Isabel to the airport last night which was really fun. We are going to visit Jason's mom on Thursday and the kids are way excited to go see Grandma! So you probably wont see anything new until next week. We hope that everyone had a great weekend and we love and miss all you that live so far away!

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY

Hey Everyone!

We just wanted to wish everyone a Happy 4th! We hope that everyone had a great weekend! We had a great time we went to watch some fireworks and we let the kids light some sparklers! Ethan tried to blow them out along with the ones in the sky! The fireworks show started at about 9:00 p.m. and it was 104 degrees outside so it was a little on the warm side but that is to be expected this time of year! We then came home put the kids to bed and Jason had to go to work that night which was a bummer but that's okay cause he gets extra hours for it! We are all doing great the kids are growing like weeds and life is great! In a couple of weeks we are going to visit Uncle Alma in L.A. and take the kids to the beach and then go to visit Jason's mom for the rest of the weekend. The kids are way excited to go and visit Uncle Alma and Grandma! Here are some pictures that I took of the kids on Ethan's birthday. They had a blast swimming at Grandma's, Olivia and Grandma quite liked the frosting on Ethan's cake, Grandma didnt realize that her mouth was blue until after I took the picture! We love and miss everyone and we love hearing from all of you!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ETHAN!

Happy Birthday to our Little Man!

Wow how time flies, it seems like yesterday that we brought him home from the hospital. I can't believe how fast he has grown, before I know it he will be starting preschool! We woke up and the first thing he asked me for breakfast was some cake! After breakfast we went swimming in our little pool down at Grandma's. The kids had a blast! We came home and had some lunch, then the kids went down for their naps. Jason came home from work, so we went to pick up Ethan's Star Wars Darth Vader cake. He loves Star Wars! He got lots of Star Wars toys and clothes! We went swimming after dinner, and had cake and ice cream afterwards. We came home and Ethan opened his presents. He was a happy little camper with all of his Star Wars toys! Ethan has been such a joy and a blessing in our lives, his little personality is one of a kind. Here is a picture of when we brought him home and some of his party! We hope everyone is doing well, we love and miss everyone tons!
