We just got back from a wonderful trip to Pismo Beach. We went with the Grant Family. The kids had a blast playing in the sand, swimming in the ocean, finding sea shells, and relaxing in the hot tub. We are exhausted from playing so hard but it is worth the time away from work and the hot weather. We will have some great memories and isn't that what life is all about making memories and enjoying every second with family and friends.

Duncan, wants so badly to go to school with Dax everyday. I think he misses Dax not being at home all day. I am putting Duncan in 2 days a week in Pre-School. Duncan's favorite thing about school is having his cousin Crew and his friend Nathan in his class, He likes doing crafts and learning his ABC's and 123's.

First Day of School

Summer is over and school has started!!! I am excited and a little sad to see my first child enter 1st grade. The day seems so long and he is so exhausted when he gets home. I have to say that my house has become alot quieter. Dax, loves his teacher Mrs. Osterberg. He says his favorite thing about school is having his own desk and eating lunch in the cafeteria. He has become so mature and responsible. I am really enjoying this stage of life.

Titan, has brought so much joy into our family. It is amazing how such a little person can impact our family in such a wonderful way.

Titan is 3 months old

Titan is such a wonderful baby!!! The whole family is enjoying his sweet noises and his wonderful smile. He is so aware of his surroundings. He looks around with his big eyes and he really tries hard to hold up his head so he can look around. He has a really long skinny body. I am still waiting for him to chunk up.

San Diegto

We just got back from San Diego for a week. We had a wonderful time just relaxing Ha Ha Ha!! Uncle Mclane, decided to come to San Diego and surprise the boys. The boys were so excited to see him. We always have a great time when Mclane is around. We spent the day at the San Diego Zoo and Sea World. We are a little tired but it was worth taking some time away.

Dax lost his tooth

Buddies

Nash, loves dogs he wants to hug them and kiss them. The dogs don't always love Nash, most of the time they want to bite him or run away from him. Our next door neighbors, have a tiny dog named Jersey. Everytime Nash sees this dog he runs up and lets him lick his hand he gets so excited. We will never get a dog as long as we have neighbors who have dogs. I had to take this picture of Nash walking Jersey. This dog is the perfect size dog for Nash. Nash gets a chance to walk him almost everyday. We love our neighbors and their pets.

4th of July 2007

The 4th of July was a blast. We are all a little tired from the festivities last night but it was worth seeing the kids enjoy themselves. We had breakfast in the morning with Logan's parents and then came home to clean up the house and get things ready for a little party at our house. This year we decided to have some families over who did not have family in the area. We had tri-tip (Logan's favorite meat to barbecue) and everyone else brought some kind of side. We also borrowed Case and Keri's bounce house water slide. The kids loved playing with their friends and cooling down in the 107 degree weather. We also went swimming and did fireworks infront of the house with some of our neighbors. The kids did not get to bed until 10:30 but they had so much fun.

Happy Birthday!!!!

Dax, turned 7 years old on June 13th. We celebrated his birthday with family. We went swimming at Copper River and had Pizza, cupcakes and some presents for Dax. We had a great time. Dax and his cousins always have a blast together. It was a real hot day so it was nice to cool off in the pool. Dax, is getting so big and becoming so mature. He is really excited to turn 8 next year and can't wait to be baptized.

Baby Blessing

We blessed the baby on Father's Day. We started the day making breakfast for Logan and opening some gifts in the morning. We then all got dressed in our Sunday best and put the baby in his blessing outfit. I wanted my parents to see Titan in his blessing outfit and I wanted to wish my Dad a Happy Father's Day so we got out the web cam. Our Web cam has been great for my parents who are living in Portugal they are able to see their Grand children and their newest Grandson Titan. Titan, was the star of the show as I introduced him for the first time to my parents. We were in kind of a rush to grt out the door. Nash, our 18 month old Spilt a whole can of red soda down the front of him so we then had to change him into a whole new outfit. We did finally get to church I felt a little out of control with my kids that day. It is so nice to live by family. Case and Keri and their family were there at the blessing and also Logan's parents were there. Logan, did a wonderful job on the baby blessing it really was a special Father's Day for Logan. Logan, is such a wonderful Father who loves his children very much. I feel so grateful to be married to such a playful, loving and devoted dad. We are so lucky to have this new baby in our home he brings a littlt piece of heaven into our lives.
