Happy 12th Birthday Max!

I can't believe my baby is 12 years old! He's growing up way too fast!

He's the same height as Grandma Susan at 5'7". He wears a men's shoe size 9 1/2 and growing!

I took him to lunch for his birthday. 

I told him he could choose anywhere he'd like and he chose In-N-Out.

He had a few friends over for dinner, ice cream cake and a movie.

(not sure where Cousin Zachary went).

Recliner seating in 3D. It was a great night!

Time is going by way too fast!

We are so proud of who you are becoming! 

We love you Max!

Happy 37th Birthday to Me!

I never know what I want for my birthday, besides food!

Danny took me to lunch at Panera Bread and then Cheesecake Factory for dinner.

I'm so grateful for Danny in my life, he truly is my best friend.

I also got my hair done and got me my own temple clothes.

Danny does his office work from home on Fridays and 

I've been able to enjoy going to the temple almost every week. 

It's been such a blessing!

Walt

When Hanna went with grandma to Sea World,

Vincent invited Walt to come and play with him.

Aunt Rebecca took you to the San Diego Zoo while Baxter and Hanna went to Sea World.

Aunt Rebecca said you both got along so well and that you were so good!

You had a great time!

Hanna Swims with Dolphins

When the kids turn 10 years old Grandma Susan takes them to Sea World to swim with the Dolphins. This year both Hanna and Baxter turned 10!

Lucky kids!

Grandma bought them orange shirts for her to find them easy.

Fun with Clark

Splash pad fun!

 

Racing mom home.

Clark said, "There's a lizard under the rock, want to see?" And out came this weird looking lizard?

One of his favorite night time routines, fighting daddy.

Silly boy.

"Come on my ship mom!"

Clark is always wanting me to take a pic. of him while he flaps his arms.

Wearing pull-ups, because mom's too lazy to potty train.

Van

I got to go with Van on his school field trip to the Natural History Museum.

I had never been, it was really neat!

 

It was Van's month for a date with mom. He invited Clark to come along.

These two brother's have a special bond.

Van did a report on Abraham Lincoln and had to dress up like him when he shared facts about him.

Van's art work.

Van's class performed a play, The Mischievous Bugs at his school Gallery Night.

Van was a fly.

These two were able to play on the same basketball team.

It was fun watching them learn a new skill.

Cheer Comes to an End

Grandma came to watch Daisy perform her last cheer at school.

Then she performed the same cheer that night at the 51's Baseball Game.

She did great and had a lot of fun!

 Love this spunky girl of mine!

A couple weeks later she was in a wagon accident.

Her friend was pulling her fast and made a sharp turn 

and Daisy scraped up her hands, knees and face.

This is probably the worse she's been hurt, she's my dramatic one, so I was worried. 

Needless to say she did much better than I'd thought she'd do.

At first it got ugly, but it healed completely.
