Shhh....it's a SURPRISE!

I had the privledge of throwing a SURPRISE party for one of bestest friends in the whole wide world, MISTY! It was so much fun to plan and I think we all had a super FUN time. We did a photo scavenger hunt where everything had to do with things about MIsty...We had two teams. Example of one of the things we had to do: Each team member had to go to a store and wrap themselves in a towel and then take a picture with bubble bath. Then each team had to buy a bubble bath to give to Misty. Each team member had to be in the picture which meant you had to find some random person in the store to take a picture of your team. Misty loves to take baths. Then we got the pics developed in 1 hour photo while we had lunch at one of Misty's favorite resturants. Once we got back to the house each team member scrapbooked their pictures on 8 x 8 paper. I took a picture of Misty with each guest and then each guest got an 8 x 8 paper to decorate and write a message to Misty. By the end of the night Misty had an (almost) completed album of her 30th birthday! Misty is always doing things for others I thought it was time for her to enjoy people doing things for her!

FOOTBALL

We are definitely a family that LOVES football and our nephew Dylan (not in that order of course :) We travel 2 hours every Friday to watch Dylan play Varsity football for East Union in Manteca. We love hanging out in the stands with the other 20+ family members that come to support Dyl each week!

Ren's School Stuff

It has taken Ren a little while to warm up to the idea of school, but she is finally getting the hang of it. Here is a picture of her on pajama day and two of her projects that she has brought home!

Landen Turns TWO!

On Sept. 6 Landen-poo turned two and we just had our little family celebrate at Red Robin and at home! Since our nephew, Chase, was born three days after Landen we decided to do a joint party. It was a lot of fun...I think Landen and Chase had a great time!

It has been awhile...

Well my blogging has definitely taken a place on the back burner for a couple of months. To get you up to speed I am just going to post a couple of pics for each thing I want to share with a quick sentence or two :)

Landen's First Haircut

Well, I was really nervous, but poor Landen could barely see so we took him for his first haircut. He was soooo good! He watched Elmo and drove the fire truck...he didn't even know what was going on. About half way through he said, "All done!" So we busted out the bubbles and he was distracted for the rest of the time. He can see now and still has curls. My little boy is growing up!

My 2 Fish

Well it is definitely SUMMER here in the valley. We bought a cheap plastic pool, put our swing set slide in it, and VOALA...instant fun and the feeling of coolness! Everyday (except Sundays) after nap the kidos get their swimsuits on and lathered up in sunscreen and head out to the pool. They have so much fun and it seriously keeps them entertained for most of the afternoon.
