On Your Mark Get Set.....GO!!

Hailey has been into running lately...I don't know why...so while at my dad's on Sunday she wanted to race everybody, as you can see in the picture of her and Ellie little Lucy was racing with them and she was in the lead!! :0)

Her Little Fella

On Sunday we were getting ready to go to my dads and before we left Hailey walked up to me, held up a little block with a rose on it, and told me "this is my little fella"...she is so funny. She held onto it all day and has me carry it around in my purse so it doesn't get lost......by the way "little fella" is a girl!

Poker Night

On Sat. we went over to our friends Colby & Amanda's house for some poker, it was a good time!! As usual I lost but Reed won 2 of the 3 games...good job babe! The kids have so much fun playing together, the new thing they discovered was sliding down the stairs on Carson's old crib mattress, they LOVED it! Lindsey and I were a little nervous though.

LAGOON DAY

Last friday my sister, brother and I took the kids to Lagoon...they had a blast!!

Class of 2009

So I know it's late but.... my little brother graduated from Cyprus High School on Friday June 5, 2009...I am so proud of him!! The ceremony took place at the Huntsman Center at the U of U. I can't believe how grown up he is, I still think of him as a little boy. Matt will be attending UVU this fall.

All Ready For Kindergarten!

Well it's all done...Hailey is all ready to start kindergarten, she has had her teeth fixed, her doctor visit for her shots, and her eye exam...whew that's a lot of doctor visits but she did awesome! We also got her track assignment, she is going to be on D track so her 1st day of school is August 25, 5 days after her 5Th birthday, she is SO EXCITED!!! I still cant believe she is starting school, it just seems like yesterday we were bringing her home from the hospital! My little princess is growing up!

....and She Has A Ear Infection

So...while Ellie was on vacation she of coarse was swimming a lot, in the ocean, and at the hotels. Well during one of the swimming adventures she somehow scratched the inside of her ear and it got infected! She said it started hurting Friday night, on Saturday night when they got into New Mexico she called me crying that her ear was really hurting and bleeding...my aunt put some ear drops in it to see if it would help, no such luck. So finally this morning I took her to her Dr. thinking it would not be good cuz it starting bleeding pretty bad. Dr. Lindsay said it's an outer ear infection, and it is all cut up inside that's why it's bleeding, so he gave her some antibiotic ear drops for her to use. Whew...I'm so glad her eardrum was not ruptured, but she has to hang in for a few more days till the medicine kicks in.

SHE'S HOME!!

Sunday May 24Th Ellie came home from her Disneyland trip! She had so much fun and was so spoiled! She said her favorite ride was California Screamin' at California Disney Adventure. She got to swim in the ocean for the first time and LOVED it! She is my swimmer. Unfortunately she did not take any pictures...defiantly not my kid...but my aunt did so as soon as I get them I will post them so you can see how much fun she had!!

My Wonderful Husband

As most of you know my dad's health is not the best due to his heart, well now there is something new going on with his blood and were not quite sure what. So my wonderful husband has been helping him when needed! As you can see by the pictures dad & Roxy got some rocks for their flower beds (8 yards total...the pictures show only 4 yards....that's a lot of rock), since my dad is not feeling well Reed moved it all for him! He has also been mowing his lawn, etc. Thank You so much babe! Dad, Roxy, and myself appreciate you more than you know, I LOVE YOU!!

DiSNeY LaNd

If you haven't herd Ellie is in California. She flew out to New Mexico (all by her self! since she is over the age of 11 she is not considered a minor so she wasn't accompanied by an attendant..I was sooo nervous, but I was able to get a security pass so I could walk her up to her gate)last Thursday to my Aunt Chris & her Nana, then on Saturday morning the headed of to the sunshine state for a week of fun!! Sunday morning they kicked it off at Disneyland and stayed all day to watch the fireworks later that night...in the mean time there was an earthquake in Anaheim, which she felt, so they had to close all the rides for a while, but everything reopened just in time for the show!! They continued Disneyland on Monday morning starting by having breakfast with all the Disney characters....Ellie said it was really fun! My uncle Steve got Ellie and Braydon to go on the tower of terror, she said it really freaked her out cuz she had no idea what the ride did! Then they went over to California them park..Ellie LOVED it there!! Today they are going to finish up Disneyland and California then tomorrow drive to San Diego for Sea World and the San Diego zoo!! Ellie is having the time of her life! Friday they will be driving back to New Mexico and Ellie flys home with Nana on Sunday. Thank you so much Chris, Steve & grandma for this wonderful trip for her!! I love you guys!

Since today was a nice day I decided to take Hailey across the street to the park while Ellie was at school. As you can see she wanted to do it all...play, run & ride!
