St. Patty's!

I promise...last of the crappy pictures! Or maybe I just care about that :) Anyway...my baby, I mean camera ca
me back from the shop this afternoon! yay!

On to the pictures! The Leprechaun's made a lot of mischief in our house! Chairs knocked over, crayons all over the floor, shoe baskets dumped out and more than I'd like to recall. They also turned Cali's water and our milk green!!! Green eggs and ham were on the menu for breakfast as well and for dinner corned beef and cabbage!



And this has nothing to do with St. Patrick's day...but just a cute pic of Ry and Grandma on the Lake :)

Catching Up!

My camera is in the shop so pictures haven't been my highest priority lately. SORRY! But I did clear of the pictures on my little camera so here we go!

Katie had Go Texan week last week and here she is all cowgirled up for Rodeo Day!


It's Spring Break around here this week so on Monday my mom's group put together a tour of the fire station. It's always a hit! Well, except with Ryan...he wasn't really in the mood. We hit up the donut shop right before for extra special treat ;)


And just some random pictures including one of Katie with her very own Library card!!

Katie Goes to Disneyworld....WITHOUT HER MOMMY!!!

I know...totally unacceptable! But...my parents got this crazy idea to take the grandkids on a special trip when they turned 5 and before they start "real" school. As much as I wanted to go, I knew she was going to have an AMAZING time soaking up all of Grandma and Grandpa's attention. And she did...she had such a wonderful time!!! Here are some pictures from her big trip!

We Love Parks

Spring around here means cram as much outdoor time in as possible and this year we've been loving the park. Today we met up with our pals and the kids had tons of fun!

Crazy Poodle

How many crazy poodles can you spot in these pictures?? Cali doesn't play like this very often with the kids but there was a stick she REALLY wanted and of course the kids had to keep it away from her :) And...I can't believe how tall Ryan is getting...for some reason he looks so tall in one of these!


And just a couple more from a lovely afternoon outside ;)


My camera is off to get a tune up so you'll be stuck with iphone and point and shoot pics for awhile!

Bringing in Spring with Bubbles!

Nothing says Spring around our house more than bubbles. The weather has been so nice lately...70+ so it's time to GET OUTSIDE before the summer heat forces us back in.

Little Valentine's

Katie is getting to be such a fun age. Every holiday is such a big deal and so exciting. Now that Valentine's is here she's already talking about St. Patricks Day!

Mommy took charge of her Valentine's this year...as much as I love the store bought character ones I've waited years to finally have her cooperate enough for this card!!! I LOVED it!


Yesterday Katie helped me make some Chocolate Covered Strawberry Cake Balls for my mom's group. She's a pro at cracking eggs and mixing and licking the bowl clean. ;) Ryan's not too shabby at spoon licking!


Took some pictures on the front porch this afternoon of my little Valentine's. I don't think I've ever been able to get Ryan to smile like this for a picture! What did it take? Katie's making her doll dance on my head ;)


Some pictures from when we were trying to get Katie's Valentine card picture. Ryan sat for 2 minutes.


Last but not least...me with my Big Valentine on our night out!


Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
