Happy Birthday Kennedy!

So my Kennedy is 10, WOW!!!!!!!  She is getting to be so grown up and is such a big help to me and with her brother and sister.  She wanted to have blue Mickey Mouse pancakes for breakfast so I did my best to make that happen, I guess they turned out ok.

  Kennedy wanted to have a friend party with her friends and cousins from Vegas that we miss.  We were able to go bowling and had lots of fun!

 

I think this the happiest I have ever seen Kennedy!!!  I love that she is that excited to get her DSi, sure does

make it all worth it!!!!

                                         

Even I had a good time with my friend!!!!!

We had a great time and I know Kennedy had a great Birthday, I love you Kennedy!

Party, Party, Party!!!!!!!!!

June was a busy month for us!  First we had Amy's kids and pregnant Yorkie for 10 days.  Coleman's birthday was the 1st and Sadie's is the 2nd so we had lots of partying to do!!!!

We went to Pirate Island Pizza for Coleman's special day and the kids had a really good time!!!

Then came Miss Sadie's special day and more partying!!!!!

And when its HOT outside the best thing to do is SWIM!!!!!!!!!

Then that night they all slept on the Trampoline.

And it wouldn't be normal if Sadie didn't give us her biggest and brightest "I am 8" smile to finish off the day!!!!  I love you Sadie and hope your day was as special as you are!

Here are just some of my favorite pictures from having some of my nephews and niece here!!!!!  It was so much fun even if it was 10 kids and 6 puppies and 2 Yorkies here :)

My absolute favorite part was that Caleb "loved" me so much and let me hold him ALL I wanted!!!!!!!!!  Now that his mom is back he doesn't want me as much, but I will just keep working on him :)

Concerts!

We had some concerts that we went to that I am slow to post.......
First we had Sadie and Taylor's TaVaci Concert

Then Kennedy had her spring concert at school!

Both girls did a really good job and I am very proud of them!

What we have been up to!

So it has been a really long time since I have updated our blog, so this will be a long one!  

We have been busy with soccer practices and games every week but the kids love it!  Kennedy is playing her 5th season of soccer and has become really good, still not as aggressive as I want her to be but it isn't about me right :).  And this is Sadie's 2nd season and she did really well!  She loved being goalie and did a really good job at it, I on the other hand was always nervous when she was goalie and hated it but again not about me.  And Tate was in heaven finally being able to play!  For so long he has watched his sisters play and has wanted to be out there running and dribbling the ball and scoring the goals and he got to do ALL that!!!!  He is a really aggressive fun player to watch, he always had the biggest smile on his face and was right there with the ball chasing it and even scored quite a few goals!!!! 

Kennedy joined the school choir and got to perform at Tuachan with her school and she really seemed to enjoy it!!!!!

 

Amy and her kids came down and we took the girls to see Snow White, she got a job at Tai Pans during these hard times.  The girls loved seeing her and she was so sweet with them!

 

Grandma had a birthday.......

The kids had a camp out in the backyard with Grandpa in the tent, they thought that was really cool.  And Grandpa made hobo dinners with them and they LOVED them!!

 

Sadie has had a different thing going on at school this month to make the end of school still be fun.  She has got to dress as a cowgirl and had Hawaiian day and if you know Sadie you know that she has been in heaven getting to get all dressed up and be as cute as ever!!!!!

 

And Sadie has lost 2 teeth!!!  The kids just love this dog to death, Sadie just had to have her picture taken with Baxter!

And Mr. Tate just loves to stay busy!!!!  He has a new love of dirt bikes and motorcycles and loves going for rides on them!  Good thing he has a big head so the helmet fits him so well!

 

 

I love finding my kids in some funny positions at night!  I had put Tate to bed and he must have gotten up and got in bed with Kennedy so when I went to bed I couldn't find him so I went looking and this is what I found!

Tate also go to go see Sarah for her birthday!!!  It was so cute to watch them play and have fun!  Tate really has missed hanging out with Sarah.
