Birthday Celebrations

We celebrated Jakob and Kaedens birthday on Sunday. It's so much easier doing it together than trying to have two separate parties. Well we had a family birthday party this year and it was a lot of fun. The theme for the birthday was bugs. I made a bug cake for the boys when Jakob saw it he said mom we can't eat dirt.

The boys are very spoiled by their Grandpas, Grandmas, Aunts, Uncles and Cousins. They got so much for their birthday I'm still trying to find places for everything to go.


Jakob was so excited about his Spiderman costume and web shooter.

Kaeden loved all the puzzles that he got.

Uncle Nate and Aunt Kelsey got each of the boys their own real golf club just their size. The boys love to go miniature golfing so now they have their own golf club.

My family enjoying the party.

And of course towards the end of the party Spiderman made an appearance.

And defeated the mean cowboy. (Thanks Seth for role playing it made his night)

Recap of Memorial weekend

We spent Memorial weekend in Southern Utah with James' family. We had a lot of fun and the weather was perfect. We decided to go for a little hike on Saturday.


On Sunday Grandpa V. took us on a hike to see some Dinosaur Tracks. The scenery was amazing.





Sunday night we celebrated Jakob's, Korrin's and Kaeden's birthday are birthdays all fall on the same week.



On Monday we went on another hike to see some Petroglyph's.




We love spending time with James' family and having fun. Thanks PaPa and Grandma V. for everything.

Happy Birthday to Me

Well I'm officially 30 today I don't think it has quite set in yet. James brought me home some flowers and then took me out to a nice dinner minus the kids we ate at Rodizio Grill.(Brazilian Barbecue) It was really good food and it was really nice to have a night to ourselves and to be able to enjoy our dinner. Thanks to my younger sister Kelsey for watching the boys.

Happy Birthday Jakob

I'm still in shock that Jakob is 5 today and that he is going to Kindergarten this year.

Happy to be a Mom

I love my boys and not a day goes by that I'm not grateful for their unusual,creative,hilarious, and loving personalities. I'm grateful to be their mother even on those rough days. I started to realize that I had a pretty boring life until they came along.

Mothers day update

We drove back from St. George on Mother's Day and spent the day with my family we had a great dinner and then we went on a walk. Also James bought me a great Mother's Day gift. I have wanted to start running again but I haven't been able to take the boys with me. So James bought me this:



And I love It........................

Unexpected Trip

We ended up heading down to St. George for 4 days. James' mother got sick and had to be put in the hospital so we headed down as soon as we could. We are very grateful that we live so much closer than we used to. James mom is doing good and should be out of the hospital soon.
