Happy 1/2 birthday to Sarah!

Today is Sarah's 1/2 birthday! She is 6 mos. old! I can hardly believe it. I am very overwhelmed today. I have so much gratitude in my heart for the opportunity to be the mother of 2 beautiful children. After my little scare with the dvt/pe I have had a really hard time. Not only physically, but emotionally. I have been scared everyday for the last 6 mos. that I wouldn't wake up, or I wouldn't have the chance to be here for my family. I know, it may be a little dramatic, but that is how I felt. I am finally starting to let go of that awful feeling. I am so thankful to my Heavenly Father for allowing me to stay here and raise my beautiful kids. I love them with all my heart, they are so very special. So, Happy 1/2 birthday to my little baby girl! I love you so much!

Dinsaur Park-er

We went to the Dinosaur Park! I thought it was free day, but I guess it was the week before! The lady let us in for free anyway because it was only an hour until closing time. We were just going to pay to get in, but the lady let us in no charge. It was a nice surprise!
Here is Parker riding a dino, I love the cute faces he makes!
Awww, daddy took a turn carrying Sarah in the sling. I think it looks good on him! :)

My babies are so cute, I love this picture of them! They make me smile everyday!

Sarah's first time swinging! She really liked it! She is such a little shrimp! What a pretty princess

I love this sign! Parker is such a ham!

Triceratops!

We had a great day! I love being with my little family. They are so much fun! For Halloween the dinosaur Parker does a night walk, You can go through the park when it is dark and dress the kids in their costumes. We will definitely be going, it's always a lot of fun! I love seeing my kids experience new things in life! It's so great to see things through a child's eyes. I am so thankful for my beautiful children and my great husband!

blog happy??? I think so...

Ok I know I went a little overboard, but I was very behind on blogging! I took this video on my phone, so it isn't great quality! I just love my babies! They are growing up so fast. I hope they stay close forever. They love each other so much! Here is Sarah giving Parker kisses!

Parker was in the dining room finishing up lunch and he started squawking, I went in to find this! He was playing around and somehow got his shirt up over the chair. He was about an inch off the ground. I had to take a picture, then strongly discourage him from doing that again! It's amazing he has made it through his life without more serious injuries. What a crazy kid!

We tag everyone who reads this! ;)

there is beauty all around...

Parker's first fishing trip! What a proud boy! We love him so much!

I got to go to Twin Falls to visit my Dad. It was just me and the kids, Ryan had to work. We had a lot of fun! On the drive up there the kids were sleeping, and there was the most beautiful sunset. I snapped a couple pictures while I was driving! ( I know tisk, tisk! ) We went fishing, swimming, and lots of other fun activities! I didnt get to take many photos, I will have to post more when I get them from gramma ea! Thanks Dad and Lea for a great time! I love you both very much! It was a much needed break!

Parker bug is 3!

My little man turned years old! I can hardly believe it! It feels like we just brought him home from the hospital. parker is such an amazing boy! We are so proud of him. Our camera ran out of batteries, so we didnt get many pictures.


I had different stations set up. We did Flo's cafe-the food station, TOwMaters-a game that they towed cars, Ramones house of flames-temporary tatoo's, and The COzy cone-a relay race game. I had a lot of fun throwing his party, and he was so sweet to thank me. What a great boy he is!

I made this race car track cake, it was fun and yummy! Parker really liked it. Thank you to all the family and friends who came. Parker got great gifts and we really appreciate all of your love and support.
