Swimming...

Our insurance company had a party at the Roy Aquatic Pool and the kids had a good time swimming even thought the wind was blowing and it wasn't that warm, but that didn't phase them!

Syracuse Days...

The parade was long and hot, but the kids didn't mind & had a good time getting candy. We went to the park after wards and then off to uncle Mikes for a BBQ..

The kids having a good time together as always...

Ball Game...

The RAPTORS baseball game was a lot of fun even though they got beat... The kids had a good time and they loved meeting and giving the players high 5's after the game!! Thanks Tanya for inviting us we had a wonderful time...

BOATING!!!

Brennick went boating with Jack and his family. He had a blast and learned how to wake board and knee board not to bad for his first time...

FuN iN tHe SuN!!!

We took the kids to the new Riverdale splash pad. It was fun and they loved it all but Emmie I don't know what it is about water but she doesn't like it, I guess she takes after her mom I'm not a big fan of the water!!

Wordless Wednesday...

He just couldn't resist putting on the catchers gear at one of Brennick's baseball games... So super cute!!!

Celebrating Dad's...

This is a photo we gave Matt for Father's Day, it turned out so cute...


It was a good day we went to the Park for a picnic and a game of woofle ball (a call favorite). Happy Father's Day to some of the most wonderful men I know! I am so grateful for the one who raised me MY DAD, the one who made my husband the great father he is today MY FATHER-N-LAW, and to the one who takes care of and loves and supports our sweet little ones MY HUSBAND. I am so glad that I am blessed to have you in our lives and I love each of you, thanks for all you do for us...

PaRtY TiMe...

We have partied all week long:

Hudson is 4 and I cant believe how fast time flies by, it seems like just yesterday that he was born. My little boy isn't so little anymore, Hudson has such a sweet smile but a really BIG attitude and he gets away with a lot when he flashes his sweet smile!! He is so into Buzz and Woody and the gang and I think he know the movie word for word. On Hudson's birthday (which falls on Father's Day this year) we went to church and when we got home the birthday fairy had been here, he was so excited to find a tent on his bed with presents inside... He had a wonderful birthday and thought it was cool he go to share the day with his dad!!

On Saturday we took him to see Toy Story 3, he loved it and didn't move at all. When I asked him what his favorite part was he said when Buzz talks funny, I think he is referring to when Buzz talks in Spanish..

After the movie we went to dinner at Sizzler, that's where he choose because he said they have all you can eat ice cream and him and Brennick ate one after the other (I'm surprised they didn't get sick.

On Wednesday we celebrated Hudson's 4th birthday with the family. He got everything that had to do with toy story and he was loving every minute of it!! We stayed up till a quarter after 12 playing toy story mania that he got, it is a very fun game. Thanks everyone for helping us celebrate his 4th birthday early he got a lot of fun stuff...
We had a fun week celebrating!!!

1st Haircut...

Emmerson had her first haircut today! She has such thin hair so Jenni cut an inch off the back and stacked it, she was very patient and just sat there...




Here it is all done, it flips so good now...

Pinewood Derby

Brennick's first Pinewood Derby was tonight, it was a lot of fun. The kids did a great job on there cars and Brennick ended up doing a Michael Jordan car which turned out awesome... All the cars did 4 heats and then they averaged the times to come up with where they placed, Brennick came in 5th out of 12 cars not to bad for his time.

Wordless Wednesday...

With all the bad weather my kids decide to have a popcorn party and watch "The Nightmare Before Christmas". They were being so cute sitting there all together being nice I just had to snap a picture (Emmie caught me at the last second and gave me big smiles).

Wordless Wednesday...

Me and Brennick having one on one time at Lagoon with Chenelle and her boys. We are getting ready for take off on the Colossus... We had a good time and the weather was perfect!

Rocks...

The kids made rocks for the garden and they turned out super cute!! We put the rocks in the oven for about 20 minutes and then took them out and let the fun begin, you take crayons and just start coloring and it melts right before your eyes.. They had a lot of fun and even Emmie liked it, but be careful the rocks are really HOT (my kids found that out quick). Now they are in the garden and I love them each different and unique...

Making his Pinewood Derby Car...

Brennick and Matt made his pinewood derby car and it turned out AWESOME.... At first Brennick couldn't decide what he wanted and we went through a million cars and had a few break downs before he decide on one, now he has to decide what color and and that may take a while!!!!So you'll have to wait and see what he chooses....

Our Anniversary!!!

Today is our Anniversary we have been married 12 years, and what a wonderful 12 years it has been... We stared a new tradition this year that I found on a blog. We made a cake and put 12 candles on it to represent each year we have been a family, we also opened a family gift a snow cone maker which the kids were so happy to get. I am so very blessed to have found a wonderful guy and my best friend, I love you honey!!

I surprised Matt with a night out to the baseball game with some of our close friends and he had a few surprises up his sleeve also (which was a shocker because he never does surprises but he had a little help) Thanks Babe Your the best... We had a really good time!

I had it put on the jumbo tron for all to see...


It's been a great Anniversary and I look forward to a long lifetime with you. I love you!!

My sister n law taught me how to do this to Ems hair, it is so fun having a girl and doing cute things with her hair. She doesn't think it is to fun she cried most of the time, sorry baby girl but it was worth it look how beautiful you look...

She looks so different with it all pulled back.


The back not to perfect but looks good for my first time. Thanks Amy..

Memorial Weekend....

We had a lot of fun this weekend and the best part was Matt didn't have to work...

On Saturday they slept out in the backyard in the tent... Just the BOYS, they had a good time!!

On Sunday we had a BBQ at the Call's with the family. They always have a good time playing and just being crazy.

On Monday we went up to the cemetery to clean her headstone the kids were a BIG help!

In Our Hearts
We thought of you with love today,
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday,
And days before that too.
We think of you in silence,
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories,
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake,
With which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping,
We have you in our heart...

We love and miss you baby girl!!

Off to Lagoon for some fun with the kids, we had a fun time and it was a beautiful day.. Emmie loved riding all the rides and would pull the cutest faces. Hudson just loves Lagoon and talks about it for days after and Brennick we finally got him to go on the Rocket he was so scared but was a trooper and did it(the picture above is so priceless right before it took off). The Rocket is now one of his favorite rides!!

To end a wonderful Memorial day we had a BBQ and a fire at my parents with the family.

What a long but way fun Memorial Day weekend!!!
