Seven Peaks = Fun Summer

We went to seven peaks with Brandy's family today
Liam had the best time I think he has had there to date.
We took tio Andrew with us, I think he had a great time. Emeline had fun, she really liked the water.
Toward the end she got really relaxed.
Emeline really relaxed, I think she is imagining she is on the beach with her brother and Dad!!!
RELAX

Jonathon's Birthday & THE FALL

Today is Jonathon's Birthday

we had a great morning breakfast for him he got lots a great present

it was fortunate I was here to help set up some of the more electronic presents ( ipod,acessories, & game chair)

While in the midst of the great birthday setup

Hazel some how wiggled out of the bouncy chairs seatbelt and landed face first on the ceramic tile floor at my mothers house.

The good new is that she is fine, aside from a little scare.

She doesn't even have a bump, we are so blessed

it could have been alot worse.

At 3 o'clock we met Brandy at Chuck E Cheese for what we thought was a Birthday Party.

Turns out it is next Tuesday, whoops!!

The kids had fun and I expect we will be having fun again there one week from today ( The real Birthday Party for Adrians little girl)

Hazel's New Suit

"no pictures please"
My little movie star
Hazel got a new swimsuit, she loves it ( or do I love it).
My mom found this suit with hat and glasses, it even has ruffles on the bum.

 

Ice Cream & Jealousy

Liv & Liam made delicious strawberry ice cream

Oh, how sweet Georgia look at the baby

Maybe not so, think she likes to be her Grandma's baby

We are having a great time, we stayed up late, talked, watched tristan&isolde, generally all the girly stuff you could want

Too bad it has to end

we go home tomorrow

Logan, relax, relax, lazy, lazy

Hazel at the Spa

Hazel loved taking a bath at Olivia's Grandmas house.

Who wouldn't like to watch a little "Last Comic Standing" while soaking in a warm bath just your size!!!!

We are having a great time in Logan. Brandy's parents spoil us. I think the pace at her parents is slower, at least while we are there. I really enjoy them and they treat my children just like there own grandkids. I am so blessed to have Brandy as a friend, we are having a great time!! We are going to see a horse tomorrow, the kids will love it.

Getting Ready for the Boyz to go to Costa Rica

So, Angelo and Jaxson went to Costa Rica today

to surprise his mother on her 50th birthday.

I must admit it was very difficult to let them go. I realized the last night that I hadn't ever been away from Jaxson, and I have only been away from Angelo maybe 4 nights in nearly 6 years. Here comes the panic attack. I call my Mom to console me, her response " it's genetic, I didn't ever send you to see Dennis without having a panic attack" not so reassuring. Oh, well. So, I bought the grocery store out!!! I bought every snack I thought my little boy ( and my big boy for that matter) would like.

Mom in full swing !!!!!

Well, this morning came (dread, fear, apprehension).

Well, we made it with only a few tears shed ( not only me, Angelo shed a few). I am sure they are going to have a great time.

Liam, Hazel and I are going to Logan with Brandy and kids. I think we are all going to have a great time, them more than us but I will try.

Memorial Weekend

Hazel is becoming a real person
she is so alive now. She talks and smiles all the time.
Sometimes it feels like she really understands what is going on!!
We had a fun Memorial day weekend, we played alot on the front lawn.
The boyz just love their 4-wheelers
On Monday we went to see the new Pixar movie
Over the Hedge
with my brothers, Mom, and Dad
Sunday night Andrew slept over and he and Angelo went
golfing at 7:00am Monday morning.
I am glad that Andrew is getting old enough to stay over and to golf with Angelo
He was a real help, it was nice to have him around. My kids just adore him.
