Big Girl

Ok, so Macee got her pics at school a couple of weeks ago...here she is..she is growing up so fast and losing her baby look...she looks like a big girl! wow~~ The black and white one was SOOOO adorable, but turned out kind of weird on here...but here is another one...what a doll she is! If I dont say so myself..

Preschool Graduate

Well, Macee is about to graduate preschool...haha. She has really enjoyed preschool this year, and it has been great for me to have a couple of hours a week of free time to get some stuff done. She is so excited for next year to go to Kindergarten, but probably not as much as me! I know, I am a bad mom....I hear people say, you should enjoy this time, as she will be grown and gone so soon...ya ya...I know! But you dont know Macee! I love this girl more than anything...but she is a handful! She is just high maintenance and requires my 24/7 attention and wont leave my side for more than say 30 seconds. Even as I shower, use the bathroom, or anything else....and she is 5!! She really needs something to do!! haha. But here is my baby all growing up so cute..I cried when I saw the lady taking this picture...what a cutie!

Happy Easter, Football, and 8th Grade Dance!!

This was the first Easter in several years, since we left AZ actually, that we got to have an outdoor Egg Hunt!! Usually its soo cold or too wet to go out....It was a little cool, but still ok! The kids had fun finding eggs in the yard! Jalan like usual, couldnt find very many, and was sort of bummed..haha...what a jalan

Disnee getting in on the fun

Macee with her eggs..she was so cute Even Disnee and Brooke joined in the hunt..so glad my girls dont think they are too big or good for a family easter egg hunt!! here she is trying to figure out how to get the egg out!

Brooke just wasnt tall enough to reach the one hid WAY up on the basketball hoop!

We signed Jalan and Britton up for flag football this year....boy were they excited!! The best part, their team is the ARIZONA CARDINALS!! yeah!! haha...Jalan has been playing on defense, and here he is trying to get that flag off that boy..what a face!! If you know Jalan, you can see his intense face of how hard he is trying! The boys did such a good job, this was their first game they got to play in! Go Jalan!!

I love this pic..look at those muscles in his legs! haha..He really hustled and had alot of fun!

Britton got to play on offense...look at this reciever getting ready to go! haha..such a cutie!!! He was excited to play offense, but he never got to touch the ball, except when he was center...he was kind of bummed but we kept telling him, this is your first game, you are new...its ok... Here is Britton with the other kids...can you see anything wrong??? Why do we have such tiny kids????

Britton got to be center a few times, he was so little!!

Brooke's school had their big 8th grade dance this weekend...Well, actually its the High School welcoming all the incoming students for next year or something...anyway....here is Brooke with 2 of her friends that went with her... They all looked so pretty! Look out boys! Or should I say us!

Our beautiful and grown up Brookie!!!

Colorado

So when we got back from Vegas, we drove to Denver with the kids for Spring Break...wow it was a long trip!! We faced some bad weather, and in fact, we hit this area with fog and snow and you could only see a few feet in front of you..then we started seeing the accidents, trucks off the road, jack-knifed, and then we see the flames!! this car was part of a several car accident, and this one was on fire! wow we were afraid, but said a prayer and got to nic and casey's safe!! We had a good time, getting dental work done, hanging out, shopping and visiting. One day we went up to the mountain to play in the snow! Here is me with my new teeth..wow what a difference! I am so excited and loving them! Thanks nic!!

Here is my little sweetie..what a cute girl she is if I dont say so myself..

There wasnt alot of snow, but the kids had fun anyway....well, even Troy and Nic had fun..what a bunch of kids!! Troy was riding Nic..haha

Our family

All the kids...they were so cute and tired at this point..Britton was on his pouting spell, so dont mind the frown!! He almost got left behind in his little tantrum, and Macee was bawling her head off worried so much!

Troy being weird and showing off his new smile...what a gorgeous stud I am married to!! Wow look out!

The kids got to go to Uncle Nic's office to get their checkups and cleanings...

Uncle Nic working on Brooke..actually giving her a shot! she had a couple of cavities he had to drill out! yikes! Disnee's turn! getting fixed up

Macee was soooo big and cute..did a great job, got 3 small cavities filled with no shot! what a girl!

Jalan's turn...all the kids had to get some work...looks like the kids need to work on brushing!

Britton is up..they had fun, it didnt even hurt! Thanks uncle nic!! and great job!

We got to spend a day at the Denver zoo..it was beautiful! We had so much fun with Casey and her girls...
