She's 50!

I must say this was such an awesome moment. I cannot believe for over a month we kept the party a secret. I am so very proud of everyone for not spilling the beans, and to continue with the surprise we made sure as everyone arrived that they parked their cars in our neighbors driveway so they(cars) were very well hidden. They(Sharon and Phil) arrived at our house being greeted by Brandon out in the yard. Sharon walked in to noticed her birthday table in our dinning room and then her eyes moved to our living room to where she saw an even bigger surprise. Sharon's eyes were in full bloom of the surprising moment as she saw her loved ones ready to wish her the happiest of Happy Birthdays. The first thing that came out of her mouth was "I should have cleaned my house" Haha! Typical. Gotta Love her.

She enjoyed the day with family, friends and barbeque. What a birthday to remember. We thank all of you for helping us celebrate her big day and the ones who couldn't make it, you were in our thoughts and prayers. A big shout out to my Mom for helping me make my life beautiful when it gets crazy and to Becca for making the world more yummy! You did an awesome job with the cake girl!

Enjoy! http://share.shutterfly.com/share/received/welcome.sfly?fid=3002c3535e6c73b16276141d224b0f78&sid=0Cbt2bFuzZsmO2

Hanging Out.

We had a few friends come hang out with us this weekend. The kids were doing some really cute stuff and I couldn't resist pulling out the camera. Paisley (Aunt Ashley's Brother's daughter) decided to lounge with Jackson and Avery (shown above).

There were a few good shots that I am excited to use in my portfolio (shown below). Again Avery takes the spotlight. Their are some really cute ones of the other kids as well.

Hopeyouenjoy...http://share.shutterfly.com/share/received/welcome.sfly?fid=38a0367bc1d968fc2a944dfefaeb216b&sid=0Cbt2bFuzZsmNr

We've Moved.

Our day has finally arrived. February 1st we officially moved out of the old and into our new home. In our spacious 3br home, Brandon and I actually have our own bedroom now. We both are way grateful for the space. We are so in love with the room, there is so much more air to breath and space for the kiddos to play.

Jackson has two and a half more months of school left which we cannot believe, and is still lovin skateboarding. Both Jackson and Avery have joined the kids choir at church which is super cute. They will be having their first "Concert" as we call it on Easter. and "Yes" we will be posting a video shortly after, so stay tuned. Avery is also excited every Saturday morning to go be a "Princess" at ballet. She loves to dance, and for two and a half is a quick learner. She can do the positions and a few other moves as well. Oh... and most importantly she is out of diapers. Yay! One more to go. Which brings us to Mr. Harrison. He is still such a sweet baby with a little temper every now and again. He has started to say more than just Mama and Dada, he can repeat almost anything you ask him. I am going to have to invest in ear plugs before long. Lol!

Please follow the link to find out what the kids have been up to. FYI the majority are of Avery because Jackson was in school and Harrison was being a crabby patty the few days we used to take these. Here you go. http://share.shutterfly.com/share/received/welcome.sfly?fid=3c8c97d07c50b86a2f762628e38c6d8e&sid=0Cbt2bFuzZsmNY

Meet Emerson.

Emerson is an eight week old australian cattle dog mix. He is simply the cutest thing ever. Well... he's up there with Jackson, Avery, and Harrison I must say. Check out the pics of Avery and Harrison cuddling with the little guy. Avery totes him around as if he is a doll. They love him and he loves them.
