Drive-in




We went and saw Toy story 3 and the kids loved it!

Fathers day






As a family we we bought tickets for cowabunga bay for my dad and for Derrek and took the kids. Ty and Kim came with the kids and Allie and Mia came. We had so much fun. Kim and I had more fun than most I think and kept ditching the kids with the dads and we enjoyed it.;)

Ryans trip to the ER




Yeah Ryan swallowed a penny and it got stuck so we spent the day there and he had to have 3 procedures done and finally got it out. And yes he still puts things in his mouth against what his father and I say.

Pictures






I took these by myself, as you can see. But they work.

Ryans preschool graduation








We have enjoyed having Ryan go to preschool and love that he has started to really like and explore new things. His preschool teacher lives just four houses away so it is nice when we are running late to just run right over. He will do one more year with her then off to kindergarten and I just cannot believe it! He has started to learn to read and he loves it when he gets it right. So far he knows 4 books and can remember them weeks after he has read it last. He is just reading the "read from sight" books and it is a great tool for him. I have created alittle reading nook in front of the crawl space for him and so far he loves it.


To hike or not...





We tried our first attepmt with all 3 kids to hike up doughnut falls. It was in may and there was still snow on the ground so t was hard for the kids and we only made it halfway up, but they did a great job and will make excellent hikers someday.

seaworld











We went to seaworld for our vacation in April and we had a blast. The kids loved to see all the animals and so did we. We stayed at the same condo in oceanside as last time so we could see the beach but be able to come home when we wanted or needed to. We pretty much just hung out by the pool and had a much needed vacation. I of course asked my dad to come because he is always fun to have around and I invited my cousin, Chelle, because I needed a sitter for the kids.;)
