Pool Days!

This is how we spent our weekend!!!!!!!!!

Congrats to Taylor!!!!

I am so proud of Taylor, I can barely put it into words!! Today her teacher called and said she would be receiving an award tonight at the Academic Excellence Award ceremony. Jon and I were thrilled. Taylor never ceases to amaze us. We get there and she wins TWO awards. The first one was "THE PRESIDENT'S EDUCATION AWARD" (signed by Obama) and the second award she got was the A/B honor roll award. (she made A's and B's all year long) I know there were a lot of proud parents in the room but I can't imagine anyone being more proud than Jon and I. We have raised such a unique daughter. She has a heart of gold that shines through to everyone she meets. Tonight was just a reminder as to how lucky WE ARE to have a daughter like Taylor!

Healthy 4 year olds!

Today Madison and Ashley went for their four year check up!!! Taylor had prepared them that SHE got shots when she was four...so they were scared to death before we even got there. However, times have changed and they do not get shots til five years old!!! The doctor said they are in the 75% of heighth and 40% in weight for their age group...so he thinks if they keep on this track they will be "tall and slender" (just like thier Mom) haha.

Family picnic

Today the girls had a family picnic day at school. The weather was perfect and we all had a great time. Tomorrow is their last day in the 3 year old class. They have a small performance they will be singing in (of course I will take and post pictures)
After our picnic we came home and then went to the park. Our neighborhood has just built a big sand volleyball court....my kids think it is a huge sandbox!! Oh well now we are off to take our nap...ZZZZZZZZZZZ

End of the season

This weekend was Taylor's last softball game of the season. (except for the tournament) She had a good season 6-6, which I think is impressive considering this was a new team and all the girls were getting use to their new position. Here are some pictures from her team party where she got received a "Medal"!!!! Congrats Taylor!

10 Happy Years

On May 1st Jon and I celebrated our 10th year anniversary!!!!! Wow, I still can't believe it has been 10 years. I love him more and more everyday! To celebrate we went out to California. We started in L.A and drove the coast all the way down to San Diego. Stopping and enjoying the different beaches as we passed through. We also made a stop in Hollywood. I have always wanted to go there...and walk down Rodeo drive. We had some friends fly out Friday night and join us. That was a lot of fun to have people to go and hang out with at night. I think my favorite beach was Laguna. Jon really liked Huntington beach. Overall we had a great trip and a wonderful anniversary.

Very Special~

Happy Mother's day to my Wonderful Mother and Mother-in-law!!!

Happy Mother's Day!

Let me start by saying I am so far behind in blogging....I have had a lot of fun and exciting things going on that I have just not had time to write about yet. Jon and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary last week by going to California. Since we got back I have been having computer issues so I have not had a chance to sort through all the pictures. That is my project for this weekend, so hopefully I will post all about that soon.

Meanwhile, today I had wonderful day with my girls celebrating Mother's day. Taylor's school had "Muffins with Mom" where all us Moms got to go and eat breakfast with our kids. Taylor had made me a beautiful silhouette of herself. I had a lot of fun and really enjoyed spending one on one time with Taylor.



After I left there I went to Madison and Ashley's preschool where their class had a brunch for all the Mom's. I was a little late getting there because the time frames were only 30 minutes apart. Madison quickly let me know that being late caused her to be at the back of the line...and that was not fair. Gotta love her honesty. The girls had me a very sweet card along with a photo album with some really cute pictures they have been collecting all year in school.
