Shannon's visit...

Shannon and Jack's trip here was wonderful! They were here for 2 weeks and we did so many fun things. The weather was crap but the company was lovely!

The four kiddos...shots like this are hard to come by!!

An early morning jam session

He absolutely adores Ben but that isn't hard to do!

One thing Jack and Makenna agree on is how wonderful the park is :)

STRIKE!! Quite the action shot if I do say myself :)

Tub time :) I'm sure these photos will come in useful later in life!

You would never know that they drive each other crazy and drive their mothers to drink!

Thanks for the wonderful trip and for the amazing memories. I love you both xoxoxo

It is so hard to narrow so many pics down to just a few but I'm so behind on this whole blogging thing that I need to start somewhere! I'm finally to April in the middle of June, who hoo!

Easter 08...

After church we headed to a friends house for dinner and Easter egg hunt....

She loved the idea of looking for eggs with candy inside!!

He was all about this if you couldn't tell!!

I didn't get any pictures of Ben at the Easter egg hunt because he took a less traveled route without any other kids :) Smart kid!!

Resurrection Eggs....

We had a great time dying eggs together. You know we layed out all the newspaper and threatened the kids with their lives and who was the one to dump out the blue die??? That would be Brandon!!

Ben's school concert

Unfortunately my camera did not do well in this lighting. So this is the only picture that turned out! Ben did a great job at his singing performance "Music in our school". He really got into it and it was fun to watch the songs he has been singing for weeks around the house!! We all knew the words ;)

2 down a few more to go....

Another tooth gone!! I'm going to need to get a loan to keep up with our tooth payments!!

Funny Makenna...

So this story I wasn't sure if I should post about but it is too funny not to and it is something I don't want to forget!! It is a tad embarrassing for me but I'll take one for the team :)
So I am getting out of the shower and Makenna just stops and looks at my chest and says "Wow, mom what are those?". I say "those are breasts remember?" she says, "oh yeah to fed babies right?". I say, "yes sweetie" then in her super excited voice she says,"breasts are so wonderful!". I'm trying not to laugh but am not doing a great job and I say "well I'm glad you think so, you'll have them some day" she clasps her hands together and says, "oh mom I can't wait!!" I died laughing!

A day at the park...

Honestly this is one of my favorite pictures. Makenna is so blessed to have the two older brothers that she does. No one could ever love her more or take care of her better than them.

Another cute one. They can have great days together like this day or drive each other completely insane! (that is Makenna's hiking injury on her chin, pretty good one too!)

My little cuddlier. Always snuggling in next to me where ever I am! I have to remember to relish these days because soon snuggling won't be at the top of his list anymore.
