Memorial Day Weekend

 

 

 

 

 

 

On Memorial Day we went up to Shawn's Grandparents house for a bbq. The kids always love to go up there and see there Great Grandparents. As you can see they had a good time. It is also fun to go up there and listen to Grandpa Wall tell his stories or sing a song. We love you Grandma and Grandpa, Thank you for all the fun BBQ's.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On the Saturday before Memorial Day we went with all my family to the cemetery's and cleaned and decorated the headstones. All the kids got into cleaning and putting the flowers were they needed to go, it was fun to watch them with Mom and Dad work on it. By the time we got to Cedar Fort they was all about the sitting around and eating all the snacks that Grandma brought for them. It was a fun time to go and honor our Grandparents. We love them and miss them very much!

We went to Arizona in April and stayed with my Aunt Debbie. We had a great time. It is always crazy when we all get together. We went to the zoo one day, lounged around the pool, and had a crazy time. This is some of the pictures from that. There was many more pictures from this trip but I chose the cute appropriate ones of my kids to put on here! Thanks Whipples for having us and putting up with us!
Funny story, well we was at the zoo, you can see in some of the pictures that we was by a pond and the kids was trying to feed the ducks and there was turtles in the water that they was feeding. Well me and Sunny decided to help them catch some turtles, dumb idea, I don't think that is what they are there for, but anyways, I caught a turtle and then I was telling the kids to touch it. Well Ryklee was really intrigued by it and so she wanted to hold it. I wouldn't let her hold it, it was kindof big. So she was touching its shell and then it sunk its head back into it shell, well she wondered where it's head went so she stuck her finger in after it and it bit it, She is probably lucky it didn't bite the tip of her finger off! I felt so bad, so I guess it isn't a funny story. We laugh about it now, I think that it scared her for life. She is always randomly holding her finger up saying "turtle bite me!" Sad, that was not one of my bright mom moments!

 

 

The Last two pictures are taken of the girls at Easter time. They are so much fun! They keep us so busy, they are both so full of it, it is a good thing we love them!

I can't believe my baby is 2!

Okay so I am a slacker and didn't get this post done when I wanted to! We celebrated Ryklee's Birthday last friday and I am dying, I can not believe that she is 2 years old! She is not my little baby anymore, okay so she hasn't been my little baby for a while but I am kindof having a hard time with it! Although she is so much fun! She is so full of life and personality and is very independent! I hope we can channel that in a good direction! She is so fun to have in our family. She is always making us all laugh. Some of her favorite things are.....her sissy, her Daddy, her grandma and grandpa, any treat, she is really into Mickey and Minnie Mouse right now and she loves to be outside! She is so ready for summer! Oh and she loves to make messes! She loves to get into all my hair stuff and make a mess of it! Her and Remie have so much fun together. They are constantly up on the coffee table dancing and singing together. Happy Birthday Ryklee, WE LOVE YOU!

Remie and Ryklee love puppies. Dagan and Whit got them a new puppy, Marley. Well if you ask Ryklee who's dog this is she will tell you hers. This is the best kind of dog to have. I don't have to take care of it, buy its food, it doesn't live with me, we can visit then go home and not have to worry about it! I am glad that she is okay with this arrangment. Of course Marley had to be invited to the birthday party.






I had alot of fun decorating her cake this year, of course it had to have Mickey and Minnie on it. I think it turned out pretty good. Ryklee had a great birthday, Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate with us, it was a great time!
