Trenten and Melissa Dancing together

So my love for dancing has apparently rubbed off on Melissa and Trenten and I don't feel bad about that one bit. Just look how adorable they are dancing together. Next they are going to learn the Waltz, then the Lindy Hop, then Tango..... haha, well, maybe not for a long time, but it would be awesome if they learned those dances because I LOVE them!!

Aunt Sara surprised us

(I know I'm way behind on updating my blog but now that school is out for a couple weeks I can breath and have a little more time to do things other than school work.)

The kids and I went over to my dad's for dinner on Mother's day and to our surprise aunt Sara was there. She had come home with some friends for the weekend from BYUI. We were so lucky to be able to spend some time with her for the weekend before she had to go back up to school. As you can see in the picture, the kids were very excited to see Aunt Sara!!! Love you Sara!

Melissa's 3rd Birthday!

Melissa turned 3 years old! We had her party at Frenchman's bar, it's a park on the Columbia River in Vancouver. It was a beautiful day and we were happy to be able to enjoy the weather as we celebrated her birthday!!

I made the cake look like her pinata. All the kids tried to knock it down or break it, but it finally fell to the ground without breaking open. Trenten decided that he needed to stab it to death to open it, and guess what, that worked!

Poor Melissa I think she only had one girlfriend at her party and that was her best friend!! But it was still fun to have all of her other little friends there, even if they were boys. They didn't seem to mind eating a cake that looked like a flower or hitting a flower pinata!


They had a great time playing together, I had to post this picture of Trenten and Conner, and Melissa and Raelee. I wish we all still lived close so they could play together more often!

Girls Night!

It was well over due to have another sleepover so we thought we should have a retro fashion show. Here are area a few pictures of some of us all glamored up. It was so much fun. We had a pile of clothes for 50's 70's, 80's. A make-up section and a hair section. We had so much fun!!! I love girls nights!!

Beach day

The kids and I went to Frenchman's Bar with some of my friends for a bbq. So of course I had to take some pictures. They love going there and playing in the sand. Trenten was so funny he would run all the way down this long cemented walkway and do some pushups then he would run back to me and have me feel his muscles. Then he would do it all over again. I don't remember how many times he ran back and forth but it was so cute.

Brother and Sister love

So Trenten and Melissa were playing and decided that they wanted to take a nap together in Trenten's bed. Of course I knew this wouldn't last very long. But it was cute watching them pretend to sleep. I love how they play so well together and just love each other.

Easter Egg Hunt

Our ward had an Easter egg hunt at the Hazel Dell Park. We had donuts and milk and the kids had a very large area to find eggs. It was chilly but they had fun.
