Father/Son Lego Night at School

I wonder who is having more fun?!?! (Pat is such a kid in a grown up body!)

PTA hosted a Lego Father/Son night! Pat and Ethan attended and had so much fun!

Cooking Presley

Presley's BFF Emma & Jonah

Presley is my little cooking mama. She loves to cook every chance she gets. The other day she had a play date at Emma's house and they made cupcakes. Karissa emailed me these darling pictures of the kids and I wanted to share them with you! She even told her teacher that when she grows up she would like to be a cooker like her mom!

Gardening

chives!

Snow peas

I am so excited about the transformation happening in our backyard this year. We have decided this year to add a third vegetable/herb planter box this year. The kids have so enjoyed working out-doors with us playing in the dirt and looking for worms! :)

Pat has been working so hard and I am so proud of him. He built me this third planter with the beans in it, he has taken down a huge ugly shrub that was totally over grown, he is planning on taking down a tree, re-doing the deck, adding pavers around the planter boxes and widening the grass to give the kids more room to play in the backyard. We have a lot of work ahead of us but I just wanted to post some begining pictures and show you are progress along the way! I am so excited about how it's going to turn out. It will be so rewarding when it's finished!

More Harry Photos!

Our New Addition!

Presley was sick and he crawled right up and took a rest with her.

Well in October we added to our family! We are now proud owners of a puppy. Meet Harrison Winston aka Harry. He is a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel! He has been such a joy to our family and a great addition. The kids adore him!

The Dunn's Wedding

Mr. & Mrs. Dunn

I loved this picture of the kids!

Ethan was adorable in his tux!

Merissa was such a beautiful bride!

In October one of my best friends from childhood was married! Merissa and Jay's weeding was beautiful. She was a beautiful bride! I was a brides maid and Ethan was a ring bearer! Ethan did a great job! Her are some photos of the special day! I am so happy for Merissa and Jay! Congrats!

Presley and a Pony

Ethan and Presley were invited to a pony b-day party a couple of weeks ago! Ethan was a little hesitant to get on and ride the horse which I was really surprised since they love horses and have rode many of them. Presley on the other hand didn't want to get off the horse. She probably rode the horse 5 or 6 times. she wanted to brush it and pet it and give the pony kisses!
Ethan did enjoy chasing all the girls around and playing in the bouncy house!

Sports

Well Both kids are currently in sports so my life has just got more hectic! Between school, MOPS, bible Study we now have Ballet & Soccer! It has been fun watching both kids start things that they enjoy! I was a little worried that Presley wasn't going to care for Ballet but she loved it, every minute of it. She looked adorable in her little outfit!

Ethan started soccer on Wednesday and all ready has his first game on Saturday! He told me that he loved soccer! It's nice to because its his same t-ball team but one new player who is one of Ethan's best friends Jonah!

Here are some pictures I got of the kiddos!

Vegas

Loved this sign at the Hard Rock Hotel

Pat and I dinner @ the Paris Hotel

Gotta love M & M's!

Yikes this lady was scary! This was in Downtown Las Vegas!

The biggest slot machine I have ever played!

Jenni and I at Caesars

Jenni and I had fun at the Mirage dancing in front of the Beatles LOVE Circus de Soleil
Jenni and her husband went and saw the show and they absolutely loved it!

Our Hotel and one of my favorite places to stay the WYNN

Jenni and I lunch at the WYNN

Pat and I lunch at the WYNN



In August Pat and I and our good friends Jenni & Peter headed down to Vegas for two nights! We had a blast! Our first day we did alot of walking stopping every once and a while to gamble and get a drink or get some food! Saturday Jenni and I spent the morning at the spa getting massages and have some Mommy time! after our massages we met up with the guys and had lunch and headed to Downtown Vegas! None of us had every been. Let's just say I have seen it and I probably would never go back to the old downtown! It was pretty dirty and old!

Saturday night Jenni and Peter went and saw the Beatle show and Pat and I walked just about the whole strip! We had dinner at the Paris hotel at 10:00 at night and then we headed to the M& M store to pick some stuff up for the kids! When Jenni and Peter were done with the show we hoped a cab and met them at the Hard Rock Hotel! We had such a blast there. Jenni was on one machine for almost three hours never having to put more money in. We made friends with some guy that bought us drinks and Peter a massage at the Black Jack table! Our night didn't end until 6:00 in the morning! I am not sure I have ever pulled an all-nighter! And then we left at 10:00 that morning! It was a great trip! Can't wait tell our next get away!

Back To School!

Today is sort of a bittersweet day! Both kids are in school now! Ethan is enjoying school. He goes three days a week full day and Presley goes two days a week for two hours! It's seems like just yesterday they were both babies! Today was the first day I cried after dropping Presley off at school! It's weird not having either one of them with me! Though I am excited for both of them, I am sure going to miss my days with them! We had a great summer full of fun vacations, play dates, and outings so now that they are both in school I should have time to catch up on all the blogging from the summer!

Check out this great giveaway! Enter by 7pm tonight!

Enter here to win a gift certificate to Sugar babies. One of my favorite stores. In fact I used to work there!!

Lincoln City Oregon!

The kids were so excited to get out to the beach. Our hotel was right on the beach and each room was an Ocean View which was really nice! We spent three night here! We had fun building sand castles, flying kites, jumping in sand ditches and running from the waves!

The path way walking down to the beach

I love the black in whites at the ocean!

I love this picture of my family! So sweet!

here Ethan is writing his Girl-friend Ava's name in the sand! The other day I printed the picture and took it to Ava's mom. She said I am going to keep this forever and use it someday for their wedding announcement!

Attack of the Seagulls! They were fighting over a lunchable that someone had left on the beach!

Presley and I digging!

A huge hole that we found. Later we decided to have long jumps in it! Such dorks
