The Quest to Post

So I took a short break but not because I am tired of blogging but because I have three VERY BUSY kids. So this morning I made a valiant effort to be instantly thwarted off my quest of posting. With in ten minutes of this dangerous journey my two dear ones (those two are as thick as thieves) created mass destruction. Here are the photos to prove it:


This is not a photo of just a dirty bathroom but my boys emptied a NEW roll of toilet paper and stuffed it in the toilet put it all over the floor and walls- just disgusting I know! After the bathroom they decided to destroy the wall with some crayons Mak left out. I heard strange sounds coming from the family room so I went in there and back tracked their path of destruction. They successfully delayed the posting but I do put them to bed sometime! SO I WIN!
Anyway here is what has been going on here lately or in the last month.




This is what we did over Memorial Weekend- it was wet, cold and rainy. We know how to make our own kind of fun! What cute robots!


I finally cut the boys hair in May. Yep after the 6th or 7th person asked if they were boys or girls I decided it was time to cut it or I would give my boys some sort of complex. They did pretty good Kaiden was jazzed about the plane. Keagan was not too excited until they pulled out the sucker- it turned into a hairy lolly (yum).


It took some getting use to but they are cute and I didn't take a ton off because I like the long shaggy surfer look- its a Cali thing:)



After Justin got out of school we headed to Vegas to watch my aunt and uncles kids. We had a great time visiting old friends in our old 'hood and eating my favorite foods (In N Out and Capriattis)! I love Vegas it will always have a special place in my heart. We had some great times there and created friendships that will last a life time. But we were so blessed to move when we did and to get our house sold, before the market dove. We had fun with the kids swimming, hiking, and going to the children's discovery museum. We love visiting with Brian and Becky and the kids we always have a great time. We had a great father's day there.

Most recently we have been putting up our long awaited fence!! Justin has worked so hard to get it done- despite his cornea scratch. We are just doing the gates and the fence looks so awesome making our yard look HUGE!! This is our neighbor Chris he is awesome!! He came over everyday after work and helped out up the fence for the whole week. We have had help from about 6 or 7 neighbors- I know you are all jealous that I have the best neighborhood in the world (yep I can make that statement because it is totally true).


Look Mom it's a fence, and I helped! Then this week our dishwasher pooped out on us! So instead of investing in our old crappy one I bought this new one that I love and works great! Eventually all my appliance will die and I will buy new ones that will be stainless steel!


So it has been an eventful month and I am sure that I forgot many things but that's just how the dice fall!

It is good to hear about you and the family! I'm sure you are having a hard time keeping up with my blogging huh? I usually blog when the kids are sleeping or Brad can entertain them.... but believe me, I understand what little ones can do!

You both need to join facebook! We are having a blast finding old friends from the good old SUU days!

First off, Ava would love to hang out with your boys. She is always getting into things that she knows that she shouldn't. She is a quick little thing. I love the boys haircuts. So handsome. You have had a busy month and I am glad that you are back in the blogging world.

P.S. Love the fence and I am jealous of you one, for having a fence and two for having a wonderful neighborhood. We were not so lucky in Utah and could not wait to move. I am happy for you.

I remember one time, just finishing up vacuuming the last bedroom, only to find Justin and Tommy having covered the entire nursery and themselves with baby powder! I could hide the powder, but you can't hide the TP! Yep, things like that are just going to happen, but really pretty funny, now as I look back on it! ;)

Oh how I miss you and JP! I wish we still lived close! And I must say I really love your new dish washer...tell JP we say hello! Oh and your boys are getting ridiculously cute (not that they weren't cute before...they are just getting cuter!)

K your view is awesome. And might I say that I'm quite hurt you didn't call us when you came into to town. :( But anywho. You're house looks really cute.
