prom

from softball in st. george to prom all in one day!

baylee is a natural beauty,
inside and out.
i did her make up and hair.
she complained the whole time...
"please don't use hair spray."
"that's too much make up."
we are so different, in a good way.
she had a great time.
jason spied (he still doesn't like the idea of baylee dating),
konnor was a total gentleman.

good bye goldilocks


yes, i went to school to cut hair
but paying someone else to do it is worth every penny!
he has a major fear.
he still won't let anyone touch him with clippers
but at least we can now use scissors.
he is so handsome.

ice cream

why can't i resist an ice cream cone?
everything has to be washed after, including the car seat
but it's totally worth it!

Lil Gym

Weston goes to a Little Gym class once a week.
He is learning hockey, golf, and baseball.
It is really cute and has been really good for him.
He is learning to listen and play with other boys.
and who knew, he's got mad golf skillz!



It's the highlight of his week.

baylee's basketball season

basketball season is a busy time for us
with practice and games every night of the week.
baylee had a great season.
she started jv and her team only lost one game.
she loves playing!
here are some pictures of her (#20) in action...

defense is her strength





i put on a quite a show with my three kids in tow
but they are the cutest fans around.



softball is already in full swing.
here she is at her basketball banquet in her softball
uniform and still getting straight A's!



Griffin's season

Griffin's team won about 50/50.
He loves to play too!
He recently broke Weston's basketball hoop because
he is always shooting on it in his spare time.







we are griff's #1 fans!
he is now taking guitar lessons, occasionally works for Jason, and helps me always!

i heart mondays




gymnastics and in-n-out calls for a fun family night!
avaree has almost mastered the cart wheel and
i still can't believe we have an in-n-out in utah.
it still looks foriegn to me but we frequent it often now that the lines have died down.
it's avaree's favorite, she gets stickers and a hat everytime.

8 months

i finally caught his cute smile on camera!
(he get's so serious when I pull the camera out)
his latest is he shakes his head back and forth
with his mouth wide open-like he is saying no,
and it's the cutest!
he's kind of sitting up,
he grabs his toes,
and now has two bottom teeth!
stop growing!
we love you, frankster.

hello

hello to you if you are still checking in on us!!
we are alive,
life is busy.

it has been months since i can say-
my laundry is mostly caught up, my house is clean (because i paid someone to clean it today), my car is somewhat clean (because i paid someone to clean it today even though rain is in the forecast), bills are paid, 2 kids are asleep, and i don't have a basketball game, gymnastics, or a guitar lesson to run off too, or dinner to cook because i'm making jason bring home take out.

aaahh, it feels good.
i'm trying to enjoy it because i know it won't last long!

i thought i could finally get caught up on blogging but i didn't realize how much i have to do! hey, i can't be caught up on everything, right? so bare with me as i catch up on the past couple of months.

i've missed my blogging outlet.
and i told you it wouldn't last long, weston and frankie just woke up!
