Florida 2008!

Here we are on our way to sunny Orlando, Florida.  I was really dreading taking Aubrey on a plane for 5 hours and I had very good reason.  She wasn't as bad as I thought she was going to be.  I had envisioned her screaming and crying the whole way there.  She was just very busy, let's keep it at that.  The boys were fabulous.  The loved the drink service.  

Once we got to the Snyder's it was Rock Band city.  We had never played it before.  Ryan was really getting into it.  We had so much fun with the Snyder's.  My boys wanted us to move to Florida.  There home is gorgeous.  They live 10 minutes from GREAT shopping and fun restraunts.  We ate at the Bone Fish Grill on Friday.  It was amazing!  Kathryn and I went shopping on Tuesday and both got some darling dresses.  I needed an extra suitcase to bring all my "good deals"  home in.  Next time we come they will have there pool and there will be no need to go to parks.  

Which Princess are you?

You Are Cinderella!

Dignified and hard working. With a gentle and soft-spoken manner you have something many people don't. Patience. Even through the moments of heartbreak you're still able to hold onto all of your hopes and dreams. Bide your time; your dream will come true.

Which Disney Princess Are You?

Brooks 4th birthday!

Let's see if this works. We had a great time at Brooks' 4th birthday party. He had a Star Wars party. Ryan and I gave him a purple and blue light saber. Her was so excited he was shaking. The boys have been playing with them ever since. Now that he is 4 he is acting so much bigger. He believes he can do so many things now. He could do them before, but now he thinks he can. He is such a sweet and loving addition to our family. He was so cute with Jake on his birthday. Jake really wanted the purple light saber so Brooks told him he could have it. I love that he is so willing to share. He really looks up to Jake and I love that. We are so happy Brooks' is in our family. I can't even tell you how much I love that little chunk-a-dunk (that is what we used to call him.)

Aubrey's 1st haircut

My little princess got her first haircut today March 28th.  She is 19 months old.   She wouldn't sit still for more than 30 seconds.  Tera Strong in our ward cut it for me.  

I just thought this was a funny picture.  She kept saying "no no."  
She looks so different to me.  She is still a handful.  I love the A-line on her.  Hopefully it will grow in a little more even now.  It had rubbed off on the back just in the middle.  It looks so cute now! 

                                   Happy Easter 2008!  The Easter bunny found us!
The Easter bunny left a jelly bean trail to help the kids find their baskets.  Aubrey didn't care much about the basket.  She spent about 10 minutes sitting there eating jelly beans.  
The kids each got a felt story book.  Jake got a really cool Book of Mormon story felt book.  Brooks got a ABC book, and Aubrey got a Temple book.  They each got a TON of candy.  Ryan thought the Easter bunny thought it was Christmas.  

           We went to the Sand Dunes on Saturday March 22, 2008.  It was Easter weekend and it was Crazy busy.  We had so much fun!  We went with Andy and Lindy Allen and family.  They are a blast to camp with.  

 Aubrey loved riding in the razor.  It was the only time she would hold still.

Ryan was helping Brooks learn to swing a golf club.  We had so much fun golfing at the Sand Dunes.  

Jake hit his plastic golf ball so hard he dented it.   He has a great swing.  Our little Tiger Woods.

This was so funny.  I guess Brooks got tired.  I am not sure what he was thinking.  He is such a free spirited child.

                                                                   Guess What????

                                                            Chicken Butt!!!
