Ellie's birthday she is 1, I can't believe it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

okay ellie tried to eat her cake, but whe she couldn't ge the frosting off her hands by shaking them she broke out in a scream cry until she got her hands washed, she doesn't like to be dirty or sticky I guess.

I love how lahna dressed up in kyles gear, but when I asked her to pose she automatically got in her ballet pose, I thought that was hillarious

our five week colorado vacation

so the only time i can talk Tim into doing family pictures is when he is deployed or going to be deployed, because at that point he rarely tells me no, lucky for me. I am probably awful cuz I totally take advantage of that most useful knowledge.

Mia may look like me but her personality is all TIM
Ellie has gotten so big so fast, she will be one year old on August 21st, CRAZY
Kyle and Lahna are my toothless children right now so at least they match.

roller skating was fun and not just for the kids. Tim never left the ring for two hours, he skated the whole time, even the kids took breaks.

but he did live out some purposes while skating he finally got kayden to join him. He loves kids so he was in his favorite environment.


going out to the cabin was nice, It's just goes to show that if you make the right friends it pays. and he company wasn't too bad either. (ha ha)

I know my kids could hike all the time they love being outside with the rocks and trees

and then we took the kids the boats paddle boats, they couldn't understand why we had to stop after a while cuz it was so fun, but of course that was because they weren't the ones who had to do the paddling

all three of them together, i am pretty sure it's for life, but we rarely get documentation so I am glad we make them take pictures.

we really missed having Todd and Tom with there families here, maybe next time.

Tim has always been the tallest in the family and had a hard time admitting he had to give it up to Troy who has obviously passed him up.















we had so much fun and I would like to thank everyone who came out for kyle's baptism and birthday. This was such a big deal for him, and to have as many people come as we did, it was perfect.

I would like to make a note that Tim's sister Tiffany made the cake and she would gladly make any ones cakes for them for a small fee, she is very talented.

the family reunion was so fun, I am so glad that Tim's family has those, My kids has so much fun they are still talking about it.

this thing at the park was so cool, it was like a jungle gym that spins like the merry go round













I loved seeing christopher,lance and Zackary, and Jennifer's Wedding was so perfect, I wish I could have spent more time with you guys.

Lahna loves to dance, she was just going to town here at home, after she got home from dance camp before. but if you notice she is standing in front of the T.V. , she also likes to watch herself dance as well. she is so funny, but quite talented,
