Splash Park  

Saturday, July 10, 2010

This spring we joined the YMCA - for multiple reasons but one of the main one was the splash park!  We knew the kids would love it and were SO excited when it FINALLY opened yesterday.  So after spin class this morning we loaded the kids up with sunscreen and then headed over to the Y for a little fun!!

Sprinkler Time...  

Monday, May 31, 2010

What do you get on a hot afternoon when you have two incredibly bored children?
Around here you get the sprinkler set up for them to run through with the hope that it exhausts them so they fall into a DEEP sleep until the next morning. HAHA!  (Never works...)


               

Never have "fun" without a little pouting from this princess!!!

Sydie and her BFF!!

Comfy...  

Sunday, May 23, 2010

Today while Daniel was home I snuck away for some mommy time and upon my return I found out that the girls had been quite a handful and to maintain his sanity he separated the kids for a little "calm down time" (or what I like to call "If this doesn't stop my head will explode" time!)  
I see Casey immediately on the couch passed out but no Sydney in sight.  Daniel points to the stairs and this is what I see...

Yup she was put on the stairs and proceeded to get all comfy and pass out!  I wish I could fall asleep like the kids - anywhere, anytime!

Mother's Day...  

Sunday, May 9, 2010

Mother's Day is one of my favorite days.  
Although I try very hard to make sure my mother knows how much she means to me every time I talk to her it gives me another chance to tell her that she is the BEST mother and grandmother I could have ever asked for.  Mom you are my BEST friend and I absolutely adore you!!  If I can be a quarter of the mother you are then my kids are so lucky!! 

Today my babies made me a ton of little goodies - my favorite thing to get from them. (Sorry I forgot pictures but they are all adorable and will be stored away for me to take out in future years when they torture me to tears so I can remember that they were once very SWEET little girls.)  Then Daddy and the girls bought me some of my favorite perfume, Vera Wang.  They took me out to a wonderful lunch at La Hacienda De Los Barrios.  It was such a great day and I wouldn't have had it any other way!

Thanks to my Amazing Husband and Wonderful Girls for showing me how much I am really appreciated...You are my world!!!

Play Dough...  

Thursday, May 6, 2010

I HATE THIS STUFF!!!!!
But of course the girls LOVE it and when we got home from the YMCA the other day I wanted them to be occupied for awhile while I cleaned the kitchen.  Wishful thinking right?  That is until I remembered the magic play dough!!



Of course they played with it outside in on the back porch - it was beautiful and there was NO clean up for me - YAY!!!

Discovery Museum...  

Tuesday, March 16, 2010

Today we took the kids downtown Salt Lake City to the Discovery Museum.  I had been told by numerous people that it was a GREAT place to take the kids and it didn't disappoint.  They loved it and to be honest I think the adults had just as much fun the kids did!

Sydney and Casey playing "farm".    

Couldn't resist taking a picture of this sweet little guy!!!

Uncle Chris and Sydney turning gears and then a trip up the rockwall.

Relaxing Day!!  

Monday, March 15, 2010

Today we just decided to take it easy!  Alisia and I stole away for a little shopping which was great - I love spending time with my favorite sister!!  
When we got home it was so GORGEOUS outside and the kids wanted outside so bad so we turned them loose.  Unfortunately for us that meant more work cleaning them up afterwards!







As you can see they had a blast!!

Disney On Ice...  

Sunday, March 14, 2010

About a week ago I was looking to see if there was anything like this coming to San Antonio and found that it would be there the week we were in Utah - STINK!!  But I also saw that it was in Utah this week and promptly called mom to tell her to get tickets!!!  The girls were beyond excited.  Casey kept singing "Dadada on Ice" all afternoon.  
Mom and Dad got GREAT seats - 2 rows back from the ice - and the kids were SO good throughout the whole show!
They were so excited to see Minnie, Mikey, Cars, Little Mermaid, Lion King and Tinkerbell.
