Family comes to visit ...

So we had a whirlwind of visitors. We started out having Jalisa and her, awesome almost husband, Andrew. They drove here from California with my mom and Jannae, and with Jannae came baby Linkin (so cute!...and he loves me by the way...a lot!). They were here for wedding stuff and Jalisa was in a friends wedding too. It was wonderful to see them and hangout. Then on Sunday night my sister-in-law Ivie and my three nieces came into town for some cousin play. Kohen felt a little out numbered by all the girls but we had a blast. We went to the park and my mom got some pics of all the grand kids before Jannae left to go back to California. We got some good ones. I like some in color in and some in black and white but I can do both in one post because they don't match (I know I am crazy).So they are all in black and white. Thanks for coming family...sorry if it was kind of a tight squeeze...love you all!

All the grand kids!

Girls, girls, girls!!!

Kohen is happy that there is another boy
in the family...hurry up and get bigger Linkin
so you guys can play.

Baby Linkin

Yeah he thinks I am funny!

so cute right!

Summer fun and cake!

We went to the pool yesterday and had a lot of fun.

Kohen is all about getting in the water. I actually put him under
a couple times but he doesn't like getting his face wet. Here he is
having a swim with Jeff.

Adi had fun laying out and listening to my iPod. She is
such a big girl.

She cracks me up. We just looked over and Jeff asked
me what she was doing...I told him she was laying out...
Duh, Dad! =)

What a silly girl! Kohen takes a minute to get in the
cold water.

This is when I was packing up and getting ready to move.
They were sitting on the back of the couch and sliding down.

G-ma Beth had her birthday and we had cake.
Adi and Kohen had fun chowing down.

Check out Kohen he has mad skills when it come to
to feeding himself. It is so funny! What a pig!(video)

homemade header!

Okay...so I made this header and I am not sure that I like it more than the black and white I made a long time ago and keep going back to on the blog. I thought that black and white was kinda boring and that I should do something more colorful for the summer. I am curious what you all think. I know you would probably like to see some pics instead of my ramblings about being a perfectionist about my blog header but I need some input. I will get some pics of the kids and our fun in the sun soon...I promise!

finally!

Yip-ee! We FINALLY got internet! I have a lot of catching up to do but I wanted to let everyone know we are all good and moved in...well the garage needs some organizing still but we are happy. Adi and Kohen are lovin' everything too. I will be posting some picks soon. Stay tuned!...

Pics and funny faces!

I am glad they love eachother...
most of the time!

Adi took this one of herself!

Cowboy Kohen brushin' his teeth.
( I love this pic)

Adi's silly and crazy faces!

I am lovin' all these pics!
We had a lot of fun with the camera that day.
Adi just wanted to keep going crazy and wanted
me to take pictures of it. Kohen is even liking
the camera these days. We need to get
some updated family pics. Anybody have some
suggestions ?

New Moon Trailer!!!

It is finally here!...The first trailer for New moon is here and I wasn't sure what I thought at first but I am really excited. I am excited to see a full trailer with Italy in it later on. I am hoping that the whole Jake transforming is from the Paul and him fighting scene and that it doesn't happen the way they show it in the trailer. Bella just sees wolves in the clearing with Laurent and doesn't know it is Jacob. They probably put those scenes together. I also thought that Jacob as a wolf would be more ferocious and bigger. We will see... I am still totally stoked about everything! I am not looking forward to Edward leaving but I know it has to happen. Taylor is freakin' ripped! I have to say I didn't hate it... but I am still all about Edward!I wanna see more dang it! I can't wait for November 20th!... Ahhhh!

Hoo Rah Mama!

Happy Mother's Day to all! I wanted to let my Mom know how much I love and appreciate her. I am so happy that I am a mommy and that I have been blessed with my cute little angels... (sometimes devils!) I love Adi for so many reasons but she just has so much love for everyone. She is the sweetest little girl and is a huge help to me. She is such a happy girl and makes me laugh constantly with what she has to say. I love that she is starting to learn so many things and has so many questions and is eager to learn... but at the same time I can't believe how fast she is growing. Sometimes I want to stop her from getting so big so fast. Every morning she wakes up and is so happy." Look mommy I grewed in my sleep," She really is getting so big. I am so blessed to have her and I love that she is so content and over joyed with her life.

Oh...Kohen...this little boy is my world. I love his guts and the more he is starting to talk and communicate the more I fall in love with him and his funny personality. He's such a tender hearted boy and he plays with Adi so well. It's funny but most times he shares with her better than she shares with him. He loves his big sister so much. He is most happy when he has us all around to play with and that of course is when he becomes a little bit of a show off. Me and Jeff ask him,"Kohen, can you show me your smile?" We in return get the face you see in the picture. So cute right. What is not so cute is that Kohen is starting to talk and his favorite word to yell is NO! It was kinda funny at first but I like it better when he is puckering up giving me hugs and kisses over and over....speaking of the word, no...I thought that girls were dramatic but Kohen has his moments too. When he wants something and we say no, he throws himself on the ground and is sometimes a mad man. He will follow us into whatever room, if we walk away, and give us a repeat performance of the kicking and screaming. He is getting bugged right now because I am on the computer....

I love my kids and love being their mama! I am blessed to have an always willing to help Mother-in-law that loves me and my kids so much. I am so grateful for you Beth! Better give him some attention now...a mothers job is never done!...Hoo Rah!

Adi's 4th Birthday!

On Adi's actual birthday...I had to work but we decided to move the party to Famous Dave's. Bob my boss hooked us up a little and I brought out a big chocolate sundae for Adi. She had fun seeing me work and I was still a part of her party. It was super busy so I didn't get to give them as much attention as I would have liked to but it worked out.

We had another birthday party on Saturday and invited friends and family over for a backyard BBQ. I made her cute cake and Adi had her good friend Haylie over to play with. They had so much fun playing dress up.Adi and Haylie put princess dresses on and Adi was a princess through almost her whole party.
We also had a tea party with fancy napkins and mini cupcakes. It was so much fun and I think Adi loved it.
Our tea was hot chocolate...mmm!
Adi's big present was her bike that she is riding everywhere, even in the house.It's a Princess bike and she even got princess knee pads and helmet from Aunt Jenn. She had two parties but on the days in between she was opening presents from all the family that doesn't live close by. So she had four days of celebrating her fourth birthday.4 for 4! Thanks everyone for all you gifts and love. We all had so much fun!
