And we make a GOAL!

Riley makes a GOAL!
So Tired! He just started practice...
WE are Number ONE!!!


Riley who is 6, started soccer this week! He is so full of energy and loves to be on the move! I think he will do a great job. We had our first practice on Thursday and it was truly an interesting experience. Riley has quiet got the concept that you can't use your hands and for the majority of the practice held the ball. WE have our 1st game on Tuesday, Yeah!

SA conference Ames, Iowa-2010

Giddy-up! Me and Dakota...
I'm alive!
40 feet in the air!
Awesome Possum! Let's do this:)


The SA conference was this past weekend! An awesome time... We did a ropes course and Horse Back riding!

Princess Dress!

My mom has been teaching women in the ward how to re-use things in our homes. She made this beautiful dress for Mckenzie using an old skirt she had found. She calls it the 'princess dress".

growing like weeds!

It is amazing that when your children aren't with you and you finally get to see them again they seem to have grown at least an inch and just appear so more mature. My kids have been MIA in Michigan with their dad since Saturday and having them gone for a week makes me grateful to have them under my roof and safely tucked in their beds. I miss them a lot.

Foggy Blah's!

Mckenzie is putting on her lady bug boots, due to the wetness!

I am so done with winter! I have decided that I definitely have the "Foggy Blah's"! It has been way too cold, way too foggy and just plain old snowy... Typically I don't mind this kinda of weather, but we have been having these really dense foggy days that seem to last forever. The sun has had no chance to break out. The kids are also getting restless. It's March and the rain has started and now it's just too wet. I need the sunshine to come out and play. Bring on Spring!!!

Blizzard 2009!

Riley in the frontyard playing!

Shoveling and more shoveling!

3 hours later and I am really hating the snow and the cold, brrr....

All bundled up!

December has brought us snow and lots of it! We got at least 12inches if not more and then the wind started! It truly was a blizzard. They actually closed schools down for 2 days and then my work was closed for one of those days.

Movin' on! Our new place...

The kids bedroom, just need to add wall art!

It's amazing to have my own room again:)

One of my 2 1/2 bathrooms! This one is the main one on the upstairs floor.

Living room!

Kitchen! Cead Mile Falite...

It's been a month officially since the kids and I moved out on to our own. I have to tell you how exciting it has been and how lonely. WE had to establish our ne patterns all over again, like just the right time to get up in the morning and be out the door to go to daycare, school and work. The kids love there play room in the basement, and so do I since that is where all the toys live and I mean all of them. between 7:30p and 10p are my quite hours. And I enjoy them but miss having other adults around to vent or just discuss the day with. Also living on your own with 2 kids truly makes you grateful for any extra help you can get. Even though I confess to be super mommy alot, Parenting truly takes 2!
