christmas pictures 2010

my cousin stacey was so sweet to do our pictures like she does every year....thank goodness she knows what she's doing! i'm just so glad we are done. my kiddos are getting so big tatum is 9 and in 3rd grade & she's my little momma helper. sydney is 6 in 1st grade & full of spunk but still our little sweet pea. landon is 5 in preschool & is breaking out of shell...& is just laid back as always:)

summer fun 2010

tatum has been bugging me to add something new to my blog so.....how many years has it been???? this summer we took a little day trip to tonto creek & to my grandparents cabin with cousins & friends. we went to the fish hatchery, played well 1st hiked to play in the water, had a picnic, & later relaxed at the cabin & enjoyed the cool weather.

i found the best workout! ENJOY

aimee's big bachorlette bash!

my friend aimee has found love and is actually getting married on my birthday. this was her last night out on the town as a single girl! we started out the night out at the ocean clubthere were about 17 of us and we had so much fun enjoying all the fun stories about when we all first met aimee or just some great stories. we also enjoyed some very yummy food i've only ate there one time before & have craved it ever since!

then we ended up at the new w hotel that just opened in scottsdale, it's very nice we ended up hanging out on the lounge chairs by the pool. we also took lots of pictures. we sat & talked a lot....if anyone knows aimee she can talk. i just want to wish aimee the best of luck & i want her to know i love her & that i know she'll make the best wife.

quick trip

this weekend we went up to show low for rex's parents 45th anniversary party. they have just recently bought land up there & they've had the older kids up to visit, but we hadn't been up yet. they are there a lot in fact tatum said today why aren't grandma & grandpa ever here? it's there dream to be back there & now that they are both retired they are able to go back & forth whenever they like.
i didn't take one picture sorry, but we had such a fun time seeing a bunch of family that we usually don't see. it was fun hanging out playing games, letting the kids run wild....they were so dirty! the best part was riding on the quads they were fighting to ride them so grandma would pile them on. we had a great time, thanks for the invite & happy anniversary!

tatum
i've missed blogging lots of stuff like

the girls dance recital in june. tatum

is like a pro after 3 years! i have to say

i'm finally getting it down too. so it was

a busy weekend for us tatum had to be

there all 3 nights. sydney had so much

fun this year too, she was having a blast

back in the dressing room helping tatum

change for her next performance. atleast

sydney only had 1 dance. i thought for sure

syd would want to try out for team, but no

she wasn't ready yet which is fine with me!
