My birthday!

Oops! Out of order on the birthdays. Sorry! I had my birthday the week before Matt. I was thinking there was no actual picture proof but I forgot that I had these on my cell phone. When you are the main picture taker sometimes you forget to get pictures of your special days. My birthday was AWESOME! My family was good to me. They got me a Mickey Mouse watch with some bling. Gotta love it! Work as usual treat me good. Had loads of fun with the Synergy Chicks! Thanks everyone for making my day special!

Happy Birthiversary Matt!!

We celebrated Matt's birthday and our anniversary hence the term birthiverary! (thanks for that word Vanessa! We love it!) He was feeling a little better on his birthday but wasn't quite up to his normal self. We love you Matt and we are so thankful for you and all you do! Also happy 19 years of wedded bliss. I still can't believe it has been that long. Love you!!

Williams/Gateway Open House

BEWARE OF PICTURE OVERLOAD YET AGAIN!!:)


Let me tell ya that my son was uber excited for this open house. He talked about it day and night. Matt was excited too. This was to be their male bonding day. Sam went to bed early the night before so that he could get up early and go. I heard him and Matt get up and start getting ready then I heard the unmistakable sound of vomiting. Uh oh. Poor Matt was sick I tell ya...SICK! He said he would still take him but that wasn't happening. Of course I couldn't tell the little man that he couldn't go. I rolled out of bed and put my hair in some ponytails and we were off. I know you can tell that rolled out of bed look when you see the pictures. I am glad we went early because by the time we left it was starting to get toasty. I'm glad I got to spend the day with the kiddo. I just felt bad for Matt because I know he really wanted to go too. Better luck next year.

This is Sam saying what the heck does that say??? Silly rabbit!

Oh no! The plane came apart!!

This picture is for my friend Amy though I know she won't see it here:)

Can you imagine having to be in that suit?! That poor guy had to be roasting alive!

This one is for Grandpa George:)

Another of Sam's fieldtrips!

Sam had yet another field trip. This time to a Tom Chapin concert. Wasn't as exciting as the last but we made the most of it:)

Kristina is 15!!

I know I just said I can't believe Riley turned 12 but I really can't believe that Kristina is now 15!! Yikes! When did that happen? I am going into a deep state of shock thinking that in 1 short year she will be 16 and driving!!! AAAAHHHH!!! Even though she is a goofy, super hero loving teenager we sure do love her!! Happy Birthday eldest child and by golly, quit growing up so fast!!

On a side note, we did have family come to visit and for some reason did not get a single picture. What's up with that??? Sorry:(

Riley is 12!!

Can you believe our Riley-Boo is 12? I know I sure the heck can't believe it! She turned 12 on Valentine's day and we were so excited for her. I can't believe she is in YW! She is such a sweetheart and I am thankful that she is in our lives. All this child wanted for her birthday was books. Crazy kid:) We love you Riley!!

PS...Don't judge that I did not make a cake. I am no Betty Crocker I tell ya!!

Snow on them there mountains!

Okay, don't be shocked. I am finally updating here. Family has been giving me grief because it has been so long. Sorry! I just know that everyone was just waiting on pins and needles for an update from us:)

Last month the snow level dropped quite a bit. We were getting ready for church when I got this site out our back window. SNOW! I love when it snows on the Superstition Mountains and on Four Peaks. So beautiful! Too bad it warmed up mighty quick and was gone. Oh well at least we have proof that it happened.
