7th Anniversary

Today is David and I 7th anniversary!! Wow!! Seven years really has gone by so fast. We started off the morning by Ellie running in our room and shouting, "happy anniversary". She was so excited. We pulled out our wedding video and watched it. The girls loved it. I said I should go put on my dress and David said go do it and surprise the girls. I do and guess what??? It fit!! I was happily surprised. The best was when I walked up stairs and the girls started calling me a princess. David had a cute look in his eye. I think he was also surprised it fit! We took a picture. Let me just say I had gotten my girls ready but had not done my hair or makeup. So not the best picture. It was awesome to talk to the girls about getting married in the temple. About being worthy and prepared to receive that blessing. Hailey said when she gets big she is going to marry dad in the temple. Sorry, Hailey you got to find your own man cause he's mine. David is so good to me. The greatest blessing in my life!!!! I am the luckiest women in the world today!!!

Ellie's Dance Recital

Ellie had a dance recital last night. They danced to "Lollipop." Since then we have all been singing it none stop. Once you get that song in your head it's hard to get out. She did a great job! Hailey keep saying she wanted to dance. During one of the other girls dances her and her friend (Elise) started dancing. Hailey for some reason loved just dancing on the floor. The video is kind of long but towards the end she stands up. Enjoy some pictures and video.

I need help!

I am not a blogger and as you can tell need a little help. Hopefully one of my friends with give me some lessons! My last post was suppose to include this picture of the kids in November but for some reason (because of my great blogging abilities)did not. So here it is.

Day at the Park

Saturday started our week of Stay vacation. David has all of next week off and we have many fun things planned and a few projects. On Saturday we ate lunch at this fun park and played. It was a bit windy but the kids still loved it. I took a picture of the three of them on this bench in November and again yesterday. How fast they do change. Sam off course has changed like crazy but I think even Ellie and Hailey have changed. Ellie is getting so tall I told her today she can't stand on a stool very much longer while I do her hair. She is getting too tall. Here are some fun pictures.

Kindergarten Graduation

Today was Ellie's last day of Kindergarten! I can believe how fast it went by. Even Ellie said to me, "Wow, Mom that really went by fast." Instead of a formal graduation we had a teddy bear picnic and games. David walked in with ballons and a stuffed animal with a graduation hat on it. Ellie was all smiles! What a great dad!

Here are some fun pictures with Ellie and us and also some kindergarten friends!!

Here we come first grade!!!!!

Phone Call

David called on his way home from work and I let Hailey talk to him. Well Ellie got on the other phone and started talking and David was then talking to her and Hailey started to get really angry. She wanted to talk to her dad. (I also wanted to see how this would post for future reference) Enjoy!! We should probably enroll her in anger management at some time.

Sam/Fun at the Park

I just had to share these cute pictures I took while at the park with some friends. We are so lucky to have such good friends. We have tried to take advantage of all of the warm days so far.

Ok...Sam. Sam pretty much all day just pulls himself up and walks around. So mostly he was just doing it on the couch or an end table. But the other day I look in the kitchen and he is scaling the wall. This is his new thing. He is going to walk way sooner than my girls. He is such a sweet boy.

Kinder Madness

In the last week we have had two parties and school and one more to go. They celebrated the summer birthdays last week. I took the two little kids with me and Hailey thinks its so cool to be at Ellie's school. I knew of two mom's bringing sweets so I told Ellie we should take cheese sticks....and well.....she freaked out!! She said that is not party food....so we had to compromise and also bring fruit snacks...which we did not even eat because of the amount of snacks. Anyway we played a game and had a fun time.

Today we went for the ice cream party. They had to earn the toppings throughout the year. Again I took the little kids and Hailey was so excited. She got in line with Ellie like she was a big kid. I didn't get a picture of them eating cause I was helping but I snapped these pictures while they were playing.

Half Marathon

I did it! I completed a half marathon 13.1 miles last Saturday, May15th. I trained with some ladies from my ward. We all completed it without stopping. I am not going to lie- it was hard. But it was the most amazing feeling to cross the finsih line. I have to thank my husband for his support during the whole process. When I didn't think I could do it he keep me going. The craziest thing happened......I think I want to do another one in October!?!
