TU TU CUTE

Ray LOVES!!! her TUTU and obviously knows she is so cute in it:)After seeing them at Swiss Days C.B and I decided we would just make her one, so we went to Roberts and Ray picked out her colors and now it is a pretty good toss up between her Tinkerella dress up and her Tutu. I tried all morning long to get her to do her 5 ballet potions so I could snap a picture and she told me "I can't I busy just one sec Oh Tay" so I asked her what are you doing that your so busy? "STUFF" Needless to say when she was done doing her stuff she still wouldn't. This is all she would give me

"Mom her SO Cute HUH?"

Happy Birthday Macie

My cute little niece just turned two. I love that Ray and her are so close in age they have so much fun together when Ray isn't trying to take over her territory. Ray thinks she's the boss because she is older and talks to Macie like she is her mother convincing her to play something else while she raids her play kitchen. Poor girl she really needs one of her own :( They were so cute opening should I say "their" presents Ray stood right by her side and did most of the work for her. Amanda gave them both PJ's since she was gone for Rays's B-day. They put them on right away and danced around with all their pretty jewelry. Happy Birthday Macie We Love You!!

Camping

So where to start I've been slacking and now I'm not sure where I want to begin. We have had so much fun these last few weeks of summer and I'm sad that it's coming to an end :( over the 24th we went camping in Beaver the boys loved it and so did orphan Annie. We rode 4-wheelers played in the rain, ate great food, found lots of deer,shot bows and lets not forget all those friendly flies that were EVERYWHERE!!!!!! Ray and I stayed in the motor home with the in-laws while the boys all roughed it out in the enclosed trailer. T wants to get a trailer so bad eventually that will have to happen because these boys live for the outdoors (YAY FOR ME!!!!) and I need not ALL the comforts of home but at least the basics so I can maintain my sanity. It's a good thing I have a little girl because sometimes all this boy stuff is a little much for me. My house is often filled with hunting, fishing, bows, camping and 4 wheeler conversations. Ray now I understand why you have an imaginary sister and a barbie for a daughter don't worry one day I will teach you a little about retail therapy and it will all be okay!!!

Swim Lessons

The boys have been doing swim lessons this week and are having so much fun. The teacher is amazing she is so good with the kids. She has named Dace "Shark Boy" and he moved up a level today.YAY!!! who would of thought :) since the first of this summer didn't start off very good any time we would go near water he would panic and SCREAM. But look at him now he is fearless which makes pool time much more enjoyable for the both of us. Daeg loves the water and is swimming and diving great he has his teacher and his mom very impressed with his form now if he could just get those skinny legs to motor a little faster he would be set.

I love these picture because they show the boys different personalities

Daeg going for distance and form

Dace going for speed and height (is the sun in her eyes or does she look a little nervous)

Sleepover

A few weeks ago we had the G kids over for a sleepover. The boys loved it. T got a little nervous when we went to get our shaved ice and they were all lined up on the curb eating he said do you realize these could all be ours and the kid that I went to high school with is probably thinking wow he has 5 kids and I said yeah cool. T replies no it's not. HA HA!! They were all so good and we had so much fun the boys can't wait to do it again.

4th of July Festivities

We have had so much fun these last few weeks celebrating our Independence with family and friends. We are so thankful for this beautiful country we live in and for the many freedoms we are blessed with. We started off the night before with the smith family camp out always a boat load of fun :). And then we went to the stadium of fire to see The Blue Man Group and Miley Cyrus. It was so neat they did such a great tribute to the troops. The boys loved the jets and the skydivers and the flag spread out over 1300 dancers was amazing. We had great seats for the fireworks and by the end of the night we were all covered with little chunks from them.

2 years old

Our little miss independent turns 2

I can't believe my little lady has turned 2. She has grown so much these last few months. She is definitely a walking, talking, sassy little toddler.Doesn't she sound like so much FUN? Well she is and we couldn't imagine life without her everyday she gives us something new to giggle about.
We love you Ray!!! Happy Birthday!

This year we celebrated her birthday at the Smith Family 4th of July Camp Out. She was so silly and loved all her gifts it was so fun to have everyone be a part of her big day
