Our Cali trip

The week before we moved to Pueblo we went to southern California for Summer's baptism.

Talan was loving the potato bugs.

Spence got in a nice round of golf over looking the ocean with the boys.

S'more Goodness!

We had Paris and Boston sleep over so we decided to whip out our S'more maker. It's so perfect for kids cause they can actually roast a marshmallow without burning it. Well... Tal did burn a couple but he got the hang of it. We love our S'more maker (compliments of the Taylor family)!

Can't get enough of Vegas!

Well... on Saturday we were talking to our friends (The Wyatt family) about what to do for Memorial Day and we decided to go to Vegas. We got rooms at Mandalay Bay and drove up Sunday morning. The kids had so much fun. We found a sweet deal at the Luxor buffet, all you can eat all day for $35 per adult and $2o per kid, but Tal and Ry were free! We were pretty excited about that since it was next door to our hotel. The kiddos have never been to M&M world so we took them there... they were in heaven!

The Downey fam came and spent the day with us at the pool... we had some good bonding moments. I really enjoyed the lazy river!

Ry was all tuckered out from being in the sun all day!

Then Summer almost went into labor walking to the Shark Reef, so our friend hooked her up with a scoot scoot for FREE!! (which was normally $45 a day!)

The kids were loving the sting ray's.

We didn't know the Treasure Island show was only at night. I haven't seen that show in years, so I was a little bummed. But it was a great trip!

It's Graduation Day!!!

WOW! Kindergarten is over already! I feel like it was just yesterday that I was worried about her going to school ALL DAY LONG! (Little did I realize how much I would love all day school!) She was such a great student.. and her teacher was wonderful! I hope each year is just as great!

Her Wonderful Teacher... Mr.Wray

She had so many great friends... I wish I got a picture of them all!

Here is Maddy & Sydney...

Happy 1st Birthday Ry Buddy!!

I can't believe my baby is 1! This year went by so fast. I seriously LOVE babies 1st birthday's! He went crazy with his cake and was just in awe with the flame on the candle. It was so fun! He is obsessed with any kind of ball, so that is what we got him... tons of balls!

We had a little issue with his cake. I went to pick it up at Costco and it said "Happy Birthday Ryan you are not the best! (Ha, Ha) So I said WTF (in a nice way) and we looked at the paper that I had filled out and some lame person changed everything on there! They changed my last name, phone number and pick up date! Luckily they had it made just not wrapped. Anyway, they offered to fix it but I didn't have time to wait so I just said I'd try to pick it off. Then the cashier was looking at it when I was checking out and she freaked out and called a manager and they gave it to me for free! So I was pretty happy about that. It was actually kind of funny cause Talan's 1st birthday cake said "Happy Birthday Palan!" So now we just have a good story to tell for each of them. We did pick the not off of Ryan's cake though!

Oh how we love the Schwitzer's!

The Schwitzer's came down to Phoenix to visit so we went out to Oregano's with them. Paul & Kari are hilarious! I think we laughed more than we ate! It was good!

I think Talan has a new crush... which I don't mind at all! Kate is such a cutie!

Do you think Tally can even see any of them with that mop in his face?!?!

Kari and I have been friends since we were babies. I'm so glad we've kept in touch all these years.

And of course we had to get a picture of the boys with the little ones. But they didn't even fight it... they were totally enjoying it! Look how happy they are!

Thanks for hanging out Schwitzer fam... we miss you guys!

Happy Easter...

One of our favorite things to do while the weather is still nice is go to Estrella Mountain Lake. It is so pretty to sit by the water and watch the sun set and let the kids run around. So for Easter we decided to do our Easter Egg Hunt up there.

Boston, Paris, Maddy, Callie, Talan, Macy and Brooklyn

These guys have some serious Kung Fu skills! I really think Paris practices cause she had quite the moves! I was impressed!

Spencer is teaching Ryan at a young age how to kill the pigeons.
