tysies first dance competition...

tysie had her first dance competition. they were so cute! they were cats (obviously) and dance around big garbage cans. i've been trying to upload the video for shelley, but sorry sis i can't get it to work!

  she loved every minute of it.....what can i say its in her blood:)

the cutest baby shower ever!!!

we had karis TWIN BABY GIRLS shower on saturday and it was so fun! my mom is seriously the best party planne there is. it was amazing! every detail was so cute. 

 can you see those cute gray chevron car seat covers with ruffles! they're so cute!

 and of course why have a lemonade stand if you don't use it right?!

 we used my grandmas old glass plates for the dishes, they were so fun. i guess they used to use them for showers years ago, why did they ever stop! so much fun.

 and the treats were delicious!

 gooch received a daddy diaper changing kit....

and fun for me that i had an excuse to decorate this wall that i've always hated in my house! it turned out perfect! 

 and i finally finished this little beauty that was just blank on the wall....love this door!

so i haven't blogged forever.....still can't decide what i want to do. but here's a few of our fun things lately.

Ridge is hilarious these days! (and don't you love my chevron pillow i made!!)

 we went to the zoo!

 dax brought his buddy Karter

 we colored eggs at grandma taylors. and made cute donut bunnies

we took the kids to dinner

(dumb but we don't go out ever often, so it was a treat!)

The easter bunny brought us a trampoline!

the kids still are so excited about it! they love it. best thing ever! and crazy kembrie hasn't broken any arms yet (i'll hold my breath) but she has successfully figured out how to do a front flip & land on her bum. crazy girl!

  the easter bunny had the kids follow string all through the yard, and it let to the back with the tramp. it was fun. dax loved reading them.

Ridge says "cheese" anytime he sees a camera!

don't you love these NEON tights! i love you target!

 Dance picture Day! she might just be the cutest lil kitty ever!

 the photographer didn't even have to ask her to pose! she was hilarious.

I can't believe how big she is getting and makeup for dance just makes her look so old! she LOVES to dance!

and obviously kembrie has picked up on some posing skills!

Tyise's birthday cake. she wanted Hello Kitty this year. I did the best i could!

Happy Birthday Tyise!

i'm only doing a little update because i suck at blogging lately....

here's a few little pictures.

crazy kids

kembrie at her ultrasound at primary childrens....finally doing a little better.

neighborhood boys....love these kids!

anybody with boys knows they need someone around to rough it up with. thank goodness for boys around...these boys are all about sports so they get along really well and i love the outdoor football days! plus honeslty don't know what i'd do without their moms, its nice to have neighbors & friends who help each other with kids.

happy birthday kembrie!

happy birthday kembrie!

is she seriously 3??! we love our kembrie. she's our crazy, happy little girl. she's so full of energy and so sweet (and naughty!) all at the same time. she is so excited to be 3, because it means she can start dance this fall. she can't wait!

love her "lemonade stand" that daddy and dax built her. she also got a snow cone machine and some stuff for her little "business" this summer. we can't wait!

and i can't believe i forgot to take a picture of her cake! she had belle and she was darling! grrr. i can't believe i didn't get a cook pic!

happy birthday Ridge!
