Kindergarten Graduation

Here's a couple of pics from Haleigh's kindergarten graduation.  We're so proud of her!  After her graduation we had a little party at our house and had some cake and ice cream .

Happy Father's Day

For Father's Day Evan and Haleigh and I went to As You Wish with Gisele and Olivia and made a picture frames.  It was stressful (I'm not very creative) but fun!  Evan enjoyed putting the paint on his hands but then when I turned them over to make the prints he kept making a fist!  So they look more like paws :) and he's missing a thumb on one!  It's the thought that counts right?!  Haleigh made a unicorn for her dad, she insisted that he LOVES unicorns!  I wish I had a picture of it, but I don't, it turned out really cute.  We love our DADDY!!!

Splash!

We went to the Splash Pad the other day with Kara, Taylor, and Collin.  It was fun!  The boys like the little waterfalls, not the big ones :)

My First Tag!  

The rules are; List 3 joys, 3 fears, 3 goals, 3 current obsessions, 3 random surprising facts about yourself. Tag 5 people at the end of your post by leaving their names.

Ok, this was hard but here goes....

Joys

1. Of course, Jarom and Evan are the pride and joy of my life!  I love those two more than life itself!

2. I can't list my joys without listing Chaundra and Haleigh.  Although Chaundra frustrates me to no end :) I can't live without her!  Haleigh is so wonderful and so smart, we love having her as a surrogate sister for Evan :)

3. Good friends, life wouldn't be the same without them.

I'm adding a 4th joy......

4. Sunshine, I am solar powered.  Thank goodness I live in AZ!

Fears

1. There are so many, one of my biggest is losing Jarom or Evan or something happening to me and leaving them with no wife/mother.

2. Becoming paralyzed or anyone in my family for that matter

3. Car accidents, because you have no control of the other drivers on the road.....the list could go on :)

Goals

1. To wear a bikini again this summer, and look decent.

2. To like cleaning the house again, I've had a housekeeper for so long I've totally gotten out of the habit. (that could actually go in my surprising facts section too!)

3. To raise well mannered, respectful, hard working children.

Current Obsession

1. I'm obsessed with trying to "be green" buying organic food and cleaners etc.

2. Finding cheap, fun things to do this summer.  If anyone has any suggestions please, feel free.

3. So You Think You Can Dance!

Random Surprising Facts

1. Jarom and I were engaged 3 times!  3rd time is a charm :)

2. I've stopped liking to clean!  I know some of you are completely shocked right now!  You get pregnant, get a weird lump in your stomach, your husband has 2 back surgeries, and that's what happens!  My house is still clean, but not what it used to be!  I'm working on getting back into it (goal#2!)

3. I hate repeating myself!  That may not surprise you, but it is a random fact :)

I tag Kara, Chelsea, Rachel, Bree, and Emily!

Working in the Back Yard!

Last weekend we were able to put up a fence and put in a sand box for Evan!  Now he can play outside without the fear of him going near the pool.  Evan was such a big help! And by help I mean, every time Jarom dug a hole Evan filled it in with rocks, and he kept turning off the radio!

Here's the finished product.  Our backyard will forevermore be a work in progress, but we got a lot done.  Here's some pictures of Haleigh and Evan playing with their new toys :)

Evan's 1st Birthday!

Hey everyone! Well we cannot believe how fast this year has flown by. I just wanted to send out a few pictures from Evan's birthday party. We had a really nice time, although our pool party got rained out! We still bbq'd and hung out. And lucky for Evan all of his grandparents were able to be there. Also, our little Evan was sick! He was in recovery from his first ear infection and sinus infection but he still had a good time! He had his first hot dog, you can tell by the look on his face, he was not too sure about it :) He was very silly and didn't want to get his hands messy with the cupcake (I don't know where he gets that from!) But he is obsessed with eating with a fork so after I gave him the fork then he went for it! Thanks for everyone who came and helped out, we really appreciated it and had a great time.
