Happy Fathers Day

 Our kids made Chad ties at church today.  Thank you Chad for everything you do for us, especially for being such a great example and wonderful father to our children.  We love you and hope you have a great day!!

Happy 1st Birthday Tatum!

Today was Tatum's first birthday.  Her mom went all out.  They had a monkey theme and it was adorable.  Everything was perfect.  Here are a few shots from the day.  Brooklyn choose the pink frame for this first picture.  

I love this bottom picture of Tatum laughing, she was in such a good mood for her party.  My kids are still talking about how much fun they had and how cute Tatum is:)    Thanks again Tyrelle for the great party. 

Princess Tatum

One more of Tatum, I know I keep saying it but she is sooooooooo cute!!!

Swim meets.

Brynlie taking her dive very serious. 

Swimming in the freestyle relay.  She had finished the 5&6 year olds and they grabbed her and had her swim the relay with the 7&8 year olds, she was really tired.

This is when Brooklyn finished her race.  She won the 50 free style, I caught as she was touching the pool to finish.  

Scout Camp

Brenden's feet.  This is what they looked like when he got home.  Old Yucky man feet!!!

Brenden and his friends eating dinner. 
Playing kick ball
Shooting a BB gun.  He did really well, he hit the bulls eye twice and hit the lollie pop 3 times.  He also shot a bow and arrow and hit the bulls eye twice.  Way to go Brenden.

My ADORABLE little niece who is turning one next week.  

Food, Food and more Food!!!

Today I went to the West side food bank and this is what I brought home.  I paid $48.00 for everything you see, plus 6 half gallons of chocolate chip ice cream, 2 boxes of meat, a huge costco brownie cake, cucumbers, red potoatoes and red onions.   Thank you Heidi and Stacey for the info on this.  The pictures don't show everything, and I don't have time to make a list.  :)

Grand Canyon

Over all we had a great time camping. We had some rough times, the dog throwing up twice in the car, but the bright side was I got new pants and a new blanket and Brooklyn got a new pillow.  The first day we were there we went for a hike and came back to find the crows had destroyed out camp, they pretty much ruined everything that was left out.  Oh well.  The kids loved camping.  It was nice to get out of the city and just enjoy time with each other. 

Brooklyn hanging off a cliff:)
Brooklyn and her friend Alexa.  

Our Dog dixie. 
Jennifer, me and Tori after we fell:)
Brenden was not to sure about standing that close to the edge. 

I just liked the look of the tree and the canyon.

Britany loved this tree.  She was more interested in climbing trees than looking at the grand canyon. 


Our first night there, Brooklyn got her hair stuck in the zipper of the tent.  Of course I had to take a picture before I helped her. 
The whole time we were setting up camp, Britany hammered the spikes from the tent into the dirt.  I just love it when she can entertain herself.
