Our New Family Pet!

2009-05-08T23:01:00.000-07:00

This is not our new pet but I just had to add this pic of my Sydnie loving her cousin Adia. She just decided she needed to lay on her. That is Evelyn in the background. We get to see them alot because they live close. Its great!
This is Brynn with Oreo Frosty. He is a Mini Lop and the girls love him so much that I am still unsure he will survive it.

He is so cute! He lays like this all the time.

Brynn's 4th Birthday

2009-04-20T14:17:00.001-07:00

My girls wanted this sprinkler so bad. I couldnt believe she got it for her birthday.

My Brynner loves skirts! She got alot of clothes and she loves them.

She wanted a Strawberry Shortcake, strawberry shortcake cake. She was so excited for her birthday, she counted down the days for weeks.

First Picnic of the year.

The sun was shining, finally, so they had to eat lunch outside.

My handsome Dad with his Grandparents grave.

Thursday morning I drove down to Delta with a couple of my sisters to attend a funeral for my Great Uncle Cecil. Though I had only seen him a handful of times, I went with great excitment because my Grandmother Ora Mae May was going to be there. She has been serving in the Nauvoo IL Mission for over a year now and I have missed her so much. If you have ever met my Grandma you love her. She is very upbeat and gives the greatest hugs in the world. So I couldnt miss the chance to get a few hundred hugs from her in the few hours I was with her. It was such a great day, I love my family so much.

Babysitter Brynn

2009-02-28T09:14:00.000-08:00

My sister Angelica brings over her darling twins Evelyn and Adia to visit us quite often. Her and I were chatting in the kitchen and decided to check on the girls and this is what we found. Brynn loves her little cousins and always wants to hold them. Someday she is going to be a great Mommy.

Happy Birthday Jaycee!!!

2009-02-20T09:04:00.000-08:00

This is her Fancy Nancy cake she requested.

My darling Jaycee is 6 years old. I cant believe how fast time goes by. She had 3 fun filled days of birthday and was spoiled with presents. I love doing these parties so we can get together as family.

My Water Baby!

2009-02-14T17:33:00.000-08:00

I was letting my older girls take a bath and all the sudden they started to scream. Sydnie had decided to climb in fully clothed, shoes and all. What you dont see in the picture is that she had a poopy diaper and I had to drain all the water, clorox the tub and toys, refill the water and then finish the bath. It took forever but it was funny.

Tubing at Soldier Hollow

2009-02-14T15:44:00.000-08:00

We went up to Soldier Hollow and took the girls tubing for the first time. They loved it! We went for FHE activity and Brent and Kyle went with us. They hall you up the hill and everything. I think we need to make it a yearly thing.

SNOW! SNOW! SNOW!

2009-02-14T14:45:00.000-08:00

Here is a video of my baby Sydnie playing in the snow for the first time. I love it! She was right at home. I guess she better be if we are going to live here forever.

Nativity by May Grandkids

2008-12-16T20:35:00.000-08:00

We decided we needed to have all our kids do the Nativity scene during our family Christmas party. It was chaos! Kids crying (my Sydnie) and noise coming from all around while Grandpa May read the story from the Bible (you could barely hear it). But there was this moment when all the kids knelt down around the manger/baby carrier and the Spirit was there so strong. It was all I could do to hold back the tears. I love this time of year as we reflect on the birth of our Savior. You should try this with your kids and families you wont regret it. Love you all and have a Merry Christmas!

Valley of Fire Half Marathon

2008-11-29T23:47:00.000-08:00

This is Rochelle, Me, Daisie and Tiffany after we finished the Half at Valley of Fire aka the hardest Half ther ever was. No joke! We were never on flat ground! It was either going up or going down all 13.1 miles of it. I was so proud of myself for finishing that I cryed. I have never done anything so hard, physically, in my life. I fell in love with it! I'm already trying to find another to start training for. I am still, after a week, feeling the aftermath of it, sore muscles and swollen ankles etc. but it was wonderful.

Sydnie's 1st Birthday

2008-11-11T15:32:00.000-08:00

Sydnie not digging in her cake.
Sharing her new toy with Kaylee.

Testing out the new ride.

She liked the cards better then opening the presents.

Surrounded by all her gifts.

My baby is 1 and I cant stand it! She doesnt look big enough for 1. I guess I am just in denial. We had a fun party with family a few days after her Bday. We usually let them dig in their cake for the first Bday but she did not like it on her hands. Oh well we had fun and alot of her cousins were there to help open presents and test out ther toys. Its always a fun time when the fam gets together.

Brandon bought me Metallica tickets for my birthday! This is us after the concert. We had an awesome time together. It was the 4th time I had seen them in concert. Yep still my favorite band!

2008-11-11T14:56:00.000-08:00

My girls were al witches this year and it was so fun! We took them over to Gma Deb's to take pictures and they were all so good especially Sydnie sense it was nap time. We went to the ward trunk or treat which is way nice for Moms will 3 young kids when Dad has to work late. We went over to Gma Deb's later that night and they went around her neighborhood. It was a fun night but I am glad it is all over! Now I need to get ride of TONS of candy!
