Guess what?!? Tredyn got glasses! He picked them out all by himself, and I have to say, he looks pretty cute. He's been treating them so well, better than I thought he would.

He's really excited to have them.

Here's the whole gang!!

4th of July


Brook and Clayton came over for a BBQ and homemade ice cream (YUMMMY!!). We had our neighbors Carla and Damon come over as well and ended up playing games. It was a really fun night. When it got dark, we gathered as a neighborhood to have a water balloon fight and light off fireworks. This year Tredyn didn't light off a single one, instead him and Shaylin, stole water balloons from the neighbor kid's stash. It was hilarious to see them sneaking them past in their shirts. McKenna and Zoey are always so cute together. Zoey wanted Kenna to be with her all night.

While we were in California, we decided to go to Legoland, although I would still have preferred Disneyland, even though we've been there so many times. It was fun, but it's definetely a one-time visit. I love this picture because I asked the kids to be baby dinosaurs and all Ty wanted to do was watch McKenna and Tredyn.
McKenna and Daddy after the recital!

McKenna had her last dance recital for the year. She danced to "The Tiki Room". Her costume was amazing!! There will be feathers all over my house and car, forever! My favorite part was when they shook their little booties. I can't wait for the DVD of it to come in so I can laugh at how cute she is! This is McKenna (the one on the left) and her best friend Aevyn before the dance.

This is Tredyn's last baseball game of the season. He is a really good player, but we noticed that his game was a little off this year. He informed us that he is seeing two balls, I guess that means it's time to take him in for an eye exam!! (By the way, Tredyn's the one at bat)

Here's Me, My dad, LeAnne, Mike and Tyler!!

We went to California in June and spent the day at Huntington Beach. It was so much fun to have a lot of family there. Dad, LeAnne, Mike, David, Chelsea, David's girlfriend Ashley and Chelsea's friend, who is also Ashley all came. We spent all day there playing in the water, going boogie boarding, playing volleyball and having a sunset campfire. It was especially fun to be with David since I haven't seen him in 4 years. He was my favorite little cousin, we are 10 years apart, so I always got to babysit him when he was younger. I can't wait to see everyone again soon.

For Mother's day we decided to go to the zoo. We went with, Brook, Clayton and Zoey and Adam, Shiree, Jessa and Jace. The day was specifically designed around moms and they even gave out free massages, which was heavenly. The family all got their faces painted and they did an amazing job. Martin and Tyler had snakes, Tredyn had an eagle, McKenna a penguin and I had a butterfly. I am so grateful for the opportunity to be a mom. I hope that when my kids are older, they will think of me as being wonderful. One day we might get there!!
I'm finally blogging!!! After reading Martin's friend, Jared's, blog, I decided I really needed to get one started for all my family to see. I'm hoping that I will do good at this, it certainly won't look as good as Jared's:) but I will try. I have taken some really great pictures lately, so I plan on going as far back as Mother's day and will start there. I hope you enjoy!!
