Thankful for

SO very thankful for these three!!!! I don't know where I'd be with out them

its great to be 4

Where does the time go? I seems like Hadley was just born and here she is turning 4.... we started the day of with birthday pancakes, (tradition calls for blueberry muffins but she declined) so i made her 4 little ones, they were suppose to be colored to go with her rainbow themed birthday but i got lazy. Last year we didn't get her any balloons(i know we're bad parents) and if you asked her about her birthday even if it was 6 months later that's all she remembered, that we didn't get her any balloons.. so this year we got balloons..... lots and lots of them. We had to buy them 1 dozen at the time because of the helium shortage:( really a world wide helium shortage, who knew that could happen.

Family dinner at chuck-a-grandma (that's what she calls it) and a friends birthday made her birthday perfect, she even told me it was a wonderful birthday... love my big girl

 

 all her balloons,, Ben even got her a HUGE orange one... seriously we could have filled another 12 balloons with the helium in that balloon

 Haddy and her papa

 she was so glad her Ramey cousins got to be up for her birthday

 Haddy and Calem are the bestest buds

 Haddy and Sarah

 birthday party fun... coloring shirts

the rainbow cake

my beatuty and my beast

Halloween has come again... Hadley was so excited to carve pumpkins till it was actually time to do it, she didn't want to get her hands in any of the stuff so she got her spoon and went at it... one seed at a time.. after i carved the eyes and nose she decided that she wanted to draw on the mouth... she's a little crazy that girl of mine...

 

 Halloween day finally came and we were so glad that the weather warmed up. Hadley was the prettiest Snow White ever and loved holding up her dress like the princesses do..

 Dallin wasn't to thrilled with his costume when it was time to go trick or treating but he got over it and had a good old time

 Haddy and her cousin Lily... these two are the bestest friends and never pass up a chance to play together, I'm glad they live so close to each other so they can

 maybe this is why he hated his costume

 He just chilled in the stroller all night, he was a little tired and it showed

6 months

here's both my babies at 6 months... crazy how different but yet how alike!!!

 

love my crazy kids

I LOVE MY FAMILY

oh how i love my family!!! we've grown so much since our last family picture and we were all excited to get knew ones... here's just a few

 

Preschool

where does the time go and how is Hadley old enough to be going to preschool???? the day could not come fast enough for her. She has been so excited to go to school. since she has two years of preschool i put her in the younger class but now I'm wishing she was in  the older since its 3 days instead of 2 but what can you do... she loves it and loves all the friends she has made..

 

 this was the day she went and met her teacher and kids in her class

 and here's the first day... she wouldn't wear her "first day of school" outfit because she had to wear leggings.. and she was so excited to show her teacher her new hair cut.

she decided we needed another picture on her second day of school so we could show her aunts her cute pants... oh how i love this girl...

 

I love hearing all about her time at school when i pick her up and i hope she continues to love going!!!

Fair

this year for the Logan fair we got a big fun surprise... Jena and Kamdyn came up!!! Hadley loves her aunts, uncles, and cousins and asks OFTEN when they are coming to visit, so when she found out Kamdyn would be up she was so excited. so we ventured to the fair for all the fun things they have,,, first off- COTTON CANDY... there is no better place then the cache valley fair to get the best and BIGGEST cotton candy out there. it is huge and they have lots of flavors to pick. next up face painting .. Of course Kam and Had got matching butterflies, (they're Roberts aren't they) then we headed off to see the animals and ended it with a rainy carousel ride... the weather wasn't the best this year but we had fun anyway. until next year

 

 she picked purple

 twins, hair and all

 kam picked blue

 lovin the ducks

 we timed it perfect because when we went to see the ducks a guy was bring out freshly washed chicks.. the girls were in heaven

 mine and Hadley's favorite, the bunnies

 Kamdyn was enjoying the pigs cold air blown water. she called it something really funny but now i can't remember

 auntie Jena and Dallin

 Hadley was loving the little piglets

 this is Hadley's favorite ride ever

21 Years

Kyli Turned 21 this year and Casi and I had planned to do a BIG rainbow party... Kyli is a little obsessed with rainbows... but Casi decided to move back to Louisiana 3 months early (LAME BALLS) so it was left up to me and my mom... we didn't do anything real huge but it was all rainbows... we love Kyli!!! she is the best aunt and an amazing sister. She always helps me when i need and there isn't anyone Hadley would rather be with....

 

 putting together her two favorite things.,, rainbows and zebra's

 this may have been the best gift ever,,, can you tell

outsider

this little girl thinks if she's not outside then her world is over,,, so needless to say we've been doing lots outside. I love my little girl and that she loves to be doing anything other then watching tv...

 

 can't get enough

 the on lookers

oh the joy

The Rodeo

The blessed Famous Night Rodeo/parade/carnival came to town again!!!! I really do look forward to this every year! its  a fun tradition we have.. and to make it even better Penny and Calem came back from France just in time!!!! its been a long 10 months with out them here and we were so excited to see them and the soon to be new nephew Penny's got in her tummy (she didn't tell anyone, just came home with a belly) Kyli and Kenzi joined in the fun and hung out with us at the parade before they headed to the rodeo and Penny and i braved the Thursday night parade crowd with 3 little kids... Friday we went to the rodeo and were lucky enough to have Krista, Kyli, and Colton come to. Hadley loves this weekend just us much as we do.,.. we can't wait till next year, hopefully ben will be better by then:) so he can enjoy it more then he did this year
