California was AWESOME!
My dad took all of us kids and our spouses, we hit up Knotts Berry Farm, Disneyland, the beach and some did sea world and universal studios. We were able to go on all the good rides since we didn't have our kiddos with us. We ate way too much food, lots of Mexican food and donuts. My dad found this bakery down the road and would go get us breakfast every morning. I don't recommend this...my thighs are hating my now.

The first night we got into LAX we went through a drive through and this sign was on the window...yuck! If i ever get cancer i'm blaming this place.

My cute cousin Taylor was in Newport the same weekend we got in so we got to spend the day with her......we love you Tay.

I'm sure Lindsey appreciates this Brent...

Race Day

Elisha, Erin, Shari, Me, Ashley and Sayta

all ran the 10k London's run this year. It was such a blast, except the part when a bunch of us got re-directed the wrong way and ended up running over 7 miles instead of 6.2. But other than that we all had fun.

And we all finished!


Oh ya and i'm going back BLOND!

Field Trip

Peyton's pre-school went to this super fun pottery place to paint bowls and plates. He was totally into it and concentrated so hard the entire time. It was pretty cute and his bowl turned out awesome. It's going to be the new candy dish at our house.

Sienna's bowl was super cute too!

Rain or Shine

These little boys want to play outside no matter what the forecast is.
I'm getting kind of sick of the rain here in AZ, i'm glad it's not snow but
RAIN PLEASE STAY AWAY! I

Seriously Late....

2009 Christmas Happenings....

Our annual Ginger Bread house, which the kids actually ate most of the candy off of this year! Gross!

Christmas morning...

The boys each got a strider bike and a razor scooter along with many more gifts!

Peyton loves his leapfrog reading pen

Brody can't get enough of the Batman cave

Peyton asked for a teddy bear for Christmas because when it was teddy bear day at school and he showed up with his stuffed frog he was the only one with out a teddy bear. He came home really upset....and if you know me i don't like a lot of stuffed animals around so i gave in and got Peyton a bear....which by the way make 3 stuffed animals in our house!

We took the kids to see Santa....and they talked his ear off asking for everything they have seen on commercials. Which they didn't get any of.



And the after Christmas i convinced my mom, sister and 2 little nieces to come down for a few days.

Caymbree - i love this smile.

These 3 were quite the trouble makers!!!

We went to the movies...not the chipmunks but "Princess and the Frog" which was darling.

The kids just sat there and didn't move!
