Bonding with Art....

Since I was a little girl, I remember my dad always do his art drawings, paintings etc... which I do need to take some photo's of his work! He taught me how to color in the lines at 1 years old. Taught me to be creative! Since my girls were born he's always had that bond with them through coloring, he would sit down with them and just color and color for hours and hours and taught them so much...They would giggle and laugh. Kassidee and Maddison are really into art, coloring, painting, scrapbooking, fashion, etc..... Kassidee started doing this which really made my dad feel amazing! Her and Maddison mailed him a picture of what they were working on. I didn't think to take a picture till after I got the one's back from my dad in the mail, but I can certainly take it when I see my dad next! But below is what my dad sent them back. He made the frames and all. Mailed it directly to their names in a package! Maddison's is the first one, her picture was a four leaf clover, that's why you see it on hers. They are currently working on another picture to send back to him, and they are excited to keep this going! My dad was so excited to work on these art projects and looks forward to the next ones....I love the bond between grandparents and grandkids.... Thanks dad for being so patient and loving!


Off Track Vacation....

Kassidee and Maddison went down to Colorado to spend a week with My Uncle Bill and Aunt Debbie for a week in April. They had such a blast. My Aunt Debbie gave me a CD of all their pictures of their vacation, but I am still in the process of finding that CD... When packing, I've not un-packed some boxes just yet that have all my pictures, cd's etc.. So I will for sure post all those pictures of their fun filled week. They went to How to train your dragon in 3D. They made some soaps, scrapbooks, went to the dinosaur museum, grocery shopping with their own lists that they made :) They played with Mackenzie's barbi dolls that she's had since a little girl, they played dress up, beauty parlor, they got playdoe and made a whole store with it. Had homemade Spaghetti that they helped Uncle Bill make. They took a day trip to Ridgeway to see Great Grandma Marie. She was so excited to see them! She gave them both $10.00 each and my super sweet daughters that I have, took me out on a date to see the movie "The last song" and bought all the drinks and popcorn.... We all had an amazing time. What a phenominal movie! We all cried!


Where to begin.......

My first post since April 13th.. almost 2 months later (never have I slacked this much), but I have to say life has been super duper crazy for us! Lots has gone on in these past two months and I am excited to post on every bit of it.... April 18, 2010 weekend my mom, sister and nieces came up! It was allot of fun to see and spend this time with them... That Sunday we went to my brothers grave and hung out, the girls decorated it with umbrella's, flowers etc. It was such a calm and beautiful day! We all miss Ryan so very much, and we all love to go visit him as much as possible.... he is always in our thoughts and know that he watching over us every second! Kassidee and Maddison went back to St George with them since they were on their off track vacation. They were super excited to get in the heat down south! They had such a wonderful time with everyone. My mom and dad took them on some one on ones'. They went to lunch and shopping together. They went to movies, swimming, Brush Fire and did some pottery! They also went to art gallery's, musuems, and playgrounds! It was so cute how they explained how much fun they were having. Half the time I had to call them to see how it was all going due to they were having so much fun, they forgot about Mom and Dad.. LOL
We headed down that following weekend to pick them up and of course hang out again! My friend April was supposed to have her baby that weekend, but unfortunetely Kai never came :( I was totally looking forward to meeting little guy but better yet she had him that Monday and we went back down to get our stuff out of Storage a week later because we finally got into our own place.... yeah! We only got to see him a few hours since it was a fast up and back trip, but I wasn't complaining!! He was so handsome, and Kera was so dang cute! She is going to be the best big sister ever.... Congrats guys!

We are renting a 3 bedroom town home in the same area that the girls are going to school. It's nice and cozy! it'll work for now, we are really focusing ourselves on paying everything off so when we decide to build all we have is a house payment! Good goal to have hey'... Girls are pretty stoked about the amenities! Clubhouse has a gym, pool and a few other cool things and we've been taking them over there to work out and of course spend time swimming. We'll definitely take advantage while we're here.
