51s Baseball Game

Trev got tickets to the 51s game.  It was to hot to bring the twins so Trev took the 3 older ones to the game by himself.  I was impressed.  They had so much fun and talked about it for days after.
 
I love this picture of them
 
Daddy and Corbin



 
This was how he kept Corbin in his seat for part of the game.
 
The kids got T shirts and baseballs for free
 
This is how they enjoyed the last half of the game.

 
KK was on the score board so Trev took a picture.
 
My kids love their daddy and cherish the time they get to spend with him.

Mt Charleston

There is not much to do in Vegas with five kids....not unless you want to be crazy by the time you get home.  So we decided to get out of the Vegas heat for a few hours and drive up to Mount Charleston to go hiking.  The kids can be loud, run around and play and I don't have to worry about it. 
 
We went with our friends Rheon and Chris and their 4 kids.
 
Here are all the kids (minus the twins who are strapped to mine and Trev's chest)
 
We hiked up to a little waterfall and had a snack.  I brought cherries and this is what Corbin looked like after, and the best part is I don't have to care how dirty he is.
 
How can you not love that face? 
 
It was a lot of fun and we will be doing it again soon

Twins 3 month old pictures

I get my kids pictures taken every 3 months for the first year.  I was scared I was going to be to overwhelmed with the twins and decide to not get them taken but it hasn't been as bad as I anticipated so we got them taken.
 
Davyn
 (he was upset most of the time but we got a few)


 
Jade
 (he was so comfortable he fell asleep and was snoring through half of it)


 
I love those chubby cheeks!

By the time we started taking pictures of them together Davyn was passed the point of done.  We didn't get any of him happy but some are better than none.

 
I love these little boys!!!

Aidan 5 year old pictures

Here is my stud muffin for his 5 year old pictures.  I know I am biased but I just think he is so adorable.
 
I love that cheesy grin!
 
This picture makes his look so old

 
This is my favorite picture of him.
You can see it in his eyes.  He is just such a happy boy!!!
 
I got his pictures taken the same time I got the twins 3 month old pictures taken.  By this time the twins were so done but at least it shows that I tried!
 
3 of my 5 favorite men!  Man I am one lucky momma!

Aidan's 5th B-Day Party

Aidan wanted a pool party for his birthday and we were going to have it at G Ma and Papa's house but when G Ma offered to rent out the cool ladies pool Aidan was so excited.  He loves this place and I think this was the best part of his birthday.
 
He invited some cousins and friends to join him.
 
KK, Haleigh, Cody and Brooklynn
 
Kids jumping off waterfall

KK annoyed of me taking pictures
 
He got donuts for her birthday party instead of cake...per his request
 
He was over joyed with his gifts if you can't tell from his face.  He hasn't stopped playing his lego Wii game.  He has seriously played it every day since.

 
Trista getting a glimpse into my life.
 
It was a fun filled afternoon!

Aidans 5th Birthday

My little boy is officially 5.  It is exciting to see him grow and develop but also sad to see him lose his babiness and become such a big boy.  
 
He started his birthday with opening presents.



 
His new favorite thing to do is build legos (thanks to my sister who bought him some for Christmas).  So we bought him a huge box of random legos pieces.  They spent hours that morning building different things.
 
He then had his favorite breakfast which is dad's homemade pancakes with sprinkles.


We ended the day as a family having cake and ice cream.  Trev asked Aidan what kind of cake he wanted and Aidan told him a ninja cake with oreos.  Trev made him a batman birthday cake last year and it had crushed oreos on it so that was an added request for this year.  Random I know but what the kid wants the kids gets for his birthday. 
 
This is Phineas from Phineas and Ferb.  There is an episode of them dressed up as ninjas so Trev made a cake of it.
 
He loved it.
 
Happy 5th Birthday Boy!!!!

8 wonderful years

I can not believe I have been married for 8 years.  Just writing that makes me feel old, but if I have to grow old I am so thankful that I get to do it with my best friend.  I know everyone writes that but he truly is.  He knows what I am thinking even with out me saying anything. He knows when to push and when to let me be.  He knows how to cheer me up when I have had a long and exhausting day. He just knows me better than I ever thought someone would.   
 
I love him for so many reasons but here are just a few....
 
1. I love him cause he makes me laugh (most of the time when I don't want to)
 
2. I love him cause he makes me want to be better than I am.
 
3. I love him cause he is a great cook and loves to cook for me.
 
4. I love him cause he gave me 5 beautiful children.
 
6. I love him cause he is a great dad.  He teaches them how to work hard but also teaches them how to play hard.
 
7. I love his cause he works along side me and isn't afraid of a little poop.
 
8. I love his cause he is hard working and ambitious.  He wants to provide well for his family.
 
9.I love his cause he is interesting and is always wanting to learn about new things.
 
10.I love his cause he is a great listener and always willing to hear me when I need to talk.
 
11.I love his cause he is quirky and you never know what he is going to do next.
 
I am so lucky to be married to him for eternity and I can not wait to see what the future holds for us.
 
(this is the last picture I have of us together...its from April and yes I am large with child...ren)
 
 
Love you Babe!!!!!!

Flip n Out

My kids love this place and ask when we can go back all the time.  We bought tickets to go there a couple of months ago off a discount website but haven't had the chance to use them.  We have been busy with Trev's law school and with me having the twins.  Well since Trev was in between semesters and the twins have been sleeping through the night we thought it was a perfect time to go.

They are the best buds

Corbin was a little scared but he did it anyways
 
KK and I got our pictures taken in the photo booth.
 
I love when we can just hang out and have a chill afternoon as a family.
