Mother and Daughter

LITTLE FOOT - BIG FOOT!!!

Well me and Breeana share a lot. Right now we are the Mother/Daughter Duo! We both sport fashion statement boots, have sweet crutches and walk with a waddle! ~ That right Bree is on crutches!!! Tuesday, she was at a friends house when she slipped on a step to the club house and limped the rest of the day so Wednesday we took her to the doctor she had a wheel chair ride and took cool pictures of her foot with the X ray machine and in the end they thought her foot had a slight fracture on one of the growth plates. So she was given the CUTEST pair of crutches to use and a splint on her foot! She crawls around the floor and gets frustrated that she can't go outside and play like she would like! She was so glad that Natalie came to keep her company playing games, making necklaces, painting pictures and watching movies together! They had so much fun today! Cousins fix everything!!!

Isn't she the cutest!

Sisters are BEST

Well everyone know that MY sisters are the best! The best advice, the best at laughing( usually about ourselves), The best moms, the best cooks, the best hotels, the best fun, the best driving buddies, the best CRAZY, but mostly the BEST FRIEND!!! I love all my sisters but today is special because it is my oldest sister Christy's Birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY Christy! Christy is always there to take care of anyone and everyone! She puts others before herself always and never speaks ill of anyone! She is the best vacation for my kids with a built in water slide, swimming pool, four wheeler rides, and the best food ever! She always say "Eat up you don't know when we are going to eat again." But we all know that we will never go hungry in her house! I wish for her birthday two things: 1- I could be there. 2- for Christy to take a moment to spoil herself. She deserves it! Christy know that I love you and can't wait to see you soon! Enjoy your birthday!!

THE SUN CAME TO PLAY!

Well the fun finally made it to Vancouver! It was so nice out today! The kids and I all went out and picked weeds in the flower garden with smiles on our faces well my face any ways! Breeana would run and scream any time a bug got close "BEE, BEE!" Brent tried to take three trips to the bathroom to read Calvin and Hobbs, and Brenden wanted to chop down dandelions more than really weed but still it was fun being in the sun remembering those good old days of weeding the garden picking the raspberries, planting the corn, and feeding the cows. How did my parents ever work with eight of us! Trying to get three kids to work is hard enough thanks mom and dad!

BECKETT

WE LOVED HAVING BECKETT OVER FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS IT WAS GREAT! HE AND BREEANA LOVED TO BUG AND PLAY WITH EACHOTHER! MY KIDS ALL FIGHT FOR HIS ATTENTION, AND WHO WOULD GET TO SLEEP WITH HIM. HE WAS GREAT AND I HOPE HE GETS TO STAY WITH US AGAIN SOON. THE FAVORITE ACTIVITY THAT HE AND BREEANA DID WAS PLAY PLAY DOE. THEY PLAYED FOR SO LONG. BECKETT WAS SET ON KEEPING THE BABY TURTLE HE MADE UNTIL THE END WHEN HE4 SMASHED IT FLAT. HIS SENSE OF HUMOR IS LIKE HIS DADS AND WILL KEEP YOU LAUGHING FOR DAYS! THANKS CHAD AND HEATHER FOR LETTING US KEEP HIM FOR A WHILE! HOPE TO DO IT AGAIN!

We loved having the Mattsons over for Bunny houses and FHE! We really enjoyed them coming over. Donna had a great lesson planned about Easter and the kids loved getting covered in frosting and decorating there houses!

Brenden and Aidan

loved there house. they both worked hard. They had a simple and cute little house.

Kara and Breeana

Had a huge mess and a lot of fun making the completely covered in sugar house for their bunnies! I think my table had just as much frosting on it as the house did though!!

BREEANA FAVORITE HAIR

THIS IS BREEANAS FAVORITE HAIR DO! SHE LOVES FINDING ALL THE BEADS AND MAKING THEM FLY WHEN SHE TURNS HER HEAD. EVERYONE THINKS THE MOST AMAZING PART IS THAT SHE ASKS FOR IT AND HOLDS STILL FOR THE HOUR AND A HALF IT TAKES TO PUT IN! I ENJOY IT FOR THE FACT ITS OUR TIME WE GET TO SPEND TOGETHER! ESPECIALLY WHILE I AM STUCK DOWN SO MUCH IT IS SOMETHING WE CAN DO TOGETHER AND BOTH ENJOY! I KNOW ONE OF THESES DAYS SHE MIGHT NOT LET ME DO HER HAIR AND I WILL BE SAD! THE OTHER THINGS SHE ENJOYS IS WRITING NOTES TO EVERYBODY MOST OF WHICH JUST SAY MOM AND BREE OR DAD AND BREE BUT IT IS NICE TO KNOW SHE IS THINKING OF US! HER FAVORITE CHORE IS CLEANING THE BATHROOM WHICH IS FINE WITH ME SHE ORGANIZES ALL THE LOTIONS AND STUFF AND WIPES COUNTERS AND MAKES IT LOOK NICE. I LOVE THAT SHE IS BECOMING A GOOD LITTLE HELPER!

SPRING BREAK

Well the weather stinks but that is life in Washington. The beach was WINDY, COLD, and RAINY! But finding sand dollars always makes us happy.

SINCE I CAN'T POST AN ADORABLE VIDEO I WILL GIVE A BRIEF RUN DOWN OF OUR BEACH TRIP!

I LOVE WATCHING THE KIDS PLAY TOGETHER! AND ENJOY IT!

We loved it! We went with our friends the mattsons and really had fun playing games, eating food and letting the kids play! Everyone was happy with minor and minimal complaints. I hope we are able to go with them again this summer when hopefully the sun decides to come out and play to!

I went to the Doctor today and they don't give me to much hope! They say I can't work or get of crutches for three more weeks and then I will still have to have my boot on after that for they think about 5 weeks. I asked about driving and was informed that I was not allowed to drive and that if I did drive and got pulled over that i would get a ticket for driving while being impaired! Just like a DUI or any of those kind of tickets! So that will be the hardest rule to follow in all of this because I hate feeling trapped!!!!
