Crafty who knew?

I was crafty tonight, I never thought in a million years I would like doing things like this but its true I do. At relief society we made these. I am not great at doing things like this but it was a lot of fun. Now I have something for the month of July to put in our house. I really appreciate our ward and all of the people that put time and effort into our activities. Thanks for the fun night ladies and for Kristen watching Miss Mia for us since Kade had a work thing.

Last Sunday I walked out to this. I had been getting ready for church and it got really quite. My twins had decided to take a nap together, they are so much a like it is crazy. Love you two!

Mia's First Swim Lesson

I have learned a lot of things this year but one of the most important things I have learned is that every child should know how to swim. We have taken Mia swimming since she was about 6 months old and she has loved it every time. I decided to put her in the parent tot class and she did great at her first lesson. She was daring and didn't cry like the other kids. She loved seeing the other kids, shocking I know because she isn't social at all haha. It was nice to watch her daddy take her because he is the swimmer and has a love for the water. I have taken on this love this year. She loved going on the tube around the lazy river and of course she dazzled the instructor :) This is the beginning of many sports/activities to come, I can't wait. Thanks for being so much fun Miss Mia, we love you!

Mia's Horse

Mia was playing at Grandma's house and when Kade went to pick her up he found this. I love how affectionate she is towards everyone. Everyday being a mom gets better. Thanks for all you do for us Miss Mia. We love you so much.

Toilet

Its very interesting when you buy a house next door to a rental house. When we moved in the house next door was nice and had grass and the neighbors were quiet but nice. Over the last year we have gotten some new neighbors still nice and quiet but look what's on their front porch. Yep you guessed it a toilet. I am not sure why its there or how long its going to stay there but its funny. I took this picture as Mia and I were taking a walk. Thanks for the entertainment.

Blast From The Past

My Aunt Penni posted pictures from her wedding on Facebook and she posted this lovely one. This was a very interesting time in my life. It was probably the hardest year of my life but this picture reminded me of the good times. Dally had flown down to Florida where Joy and I were living while we were doing the College program at Disney World. We had gone to Disney World with him a couple of days before and it was so fun. Then we had hung out that week until the wedding. Joy stayed with me even though she didn't have to. Thanks for the fun times Joy & Dally, you both make me smile. I love you :)

Mia's Party

We celebrated Mia's birthday on Saturday May 22nd. It was so much fun. We had a blast. We had a yummy dutch oven dinner and some great salads that everyone brought. Then we had a bounce house that was so much fun and the kids loved it. We had a video of Mia's first year playing and of course balloons, Mia's favorite. Thanks to everyone that came we had a blast.
Here are the girls that were pregnant with me
