Connor looking like the Bieber......lol!!

So this is Connor Brown, Madi's (Nubby) like interrest. They are so funny together and so cute. I will post some other pictures i have of both of them together. Holding hands ha ha ha! They are both such good kids sure love getting to know Madi's friends. Isn't he dreamy as Madi would say and yes when she reads this i am in trouble for embarraassing her again...but.....that is what i live for to embarrass my kids! lol !! Sorry Madi it had to be said!

Madi's Song.

Madi has a boy she likes named Connor Brown he is a twin With Carson Brown. When we were at trek a week ago they came and sang a song they made up about Madi's pinkey toe. Her toe looks like a nub so they call her nubby and made a song about it and it makes me laugh sooo hard. Have a listen.

Madi's Year

Madison and her cute twin friends Madi and Morgan...The are growing sooo fast!!

Madison had the opportunity this year to do Alice in Wonderland and if i compare it to last years play at LibertyMiddle School in Colorado....WOW! No comparison. Sunset hires out to bring in great directors that actually care about the kids and having a great show. Mr Pav from Liberty is the drama teacher and i don't think he enjoys teaching or directing so much any more because it shows in his work. It is like night and day...This show for a Jr. High play was AMAZING and Madison had a fabulous time doing it. I got to shoot the play and i had fun getting involved with Madi and the school. She has made such a turn around since moving here and she has so many friends that treat her good and have the same standards as her which i know helps..I am proud of Madison and all she has accomplished. She did also try out for cheer but she didn't make it because she has only had a few months of Tumbling classes but she is going to work hard all year and try again next year...She has also attempted running for V.P. She didn't make that either but i am proud she is outting herself out there and have so many learning experiences. She said she is going to try again next year if she doesn't make cheer either. I was able to help her with her projects and it is really a lot of work but fun. I am glad school is almost over so we can take a breather....Madi did finish strong with grades though she has been on the honor roll all year and has had a 3.6 she might finsh with close to a 3.9 or 3.8 because she wants a huge payout from dad for all her a's and spending money for summer...lol She has even gone to her first dance of the year after being so scared and actually danced with a boy...ha ha...she is so cute. 8th grade here we come....

Brookie and Aydan's First Soccer Experience

So we thought it a good idea to try and find out what the younger girls like to do or what their thing is...so we put them in soccer to try this first. They went in not knowing really how to play or what to expect, but they do know how to kick a ball which is a good start. Mike offered to coach one of the teams, but instead of one team he got both girls teams to coach...it is a lot of work for him but i know he loves it and the girls love have daddy as their coach. The first 10 min into Brooklynn's game the ball slapped her thigh and she came out crying saying she never wanted to play again and asking if she could take dance now. 5 minutes into Aydan's game she got tripped and a boy fell on her head and she came out crying swearing she would never play again. Since i paid up money of course i said "Not until you finish soccer." so we gave them a pep talk about it is okay to fall down and so forth so now they have played every game. Brooklynn still gets a bit timid to get to close to much but she tries and she is doing well. Aydan just cracks me up. She jumps and hops around the ball like she is going to fight it or for all you West Side Story fans...going to rumble the ball lol...She gets in there though and kicks the ball and she finally scored a goal last game and she didn't even know it. But sad to say soccer is definitely not their thing and we can cross this off our list...I guess dance is our next try. It was sure fun watching and cheering them on though...

Summer 2010

So i am way behind on my blog which is bad because i just moved to Utah and i know that our friends in Colorado are curious as to what we have been up to. We had a great summer being with family and also being able to go to California and Disneyland. We did some camping and the girls were in a parade for cheer camp and we just had fun. I have put a slideshow on so you can see some of the fun things we did.

Congrats Mike Graduate of 2010

I am so proud of my husband Mike for all the hard work and it feels sooo good to FINALLY be in a position to say IT IS OVER!!! YOU DID IT!!! Now i get my husband back yeah! Mike has finally received his bachelors degree is and on May 2nd we got to go to his graduation and celebrate. It was so great to have my mom come and Mikes parents come and support him. I remember whan he started school part time and that was only what in between and 7 years ago? not sure it has been so long it is almost a blur. It was so long and it felt at times like i never had a husband because he was so busy with work and school and studying it was crazy and now it has finally paid off and i deserve a second honeymoon don't you think? So to my husband...I love you so much and i am so proud of all you have accomplished and all you do and sacrifice for our family. You are an amazing man and i know there isn't anything you can't accomplish and won't accomplish. Congrats and we love you so much!

Miss My Girls!!

So Brooklynn and Aydan have been in Utah for 11 days now and i am missing them like CRAZY!!! I haven't ever been away from them for longer than 3 days and it is so sad when i see mothers with their little kids especially at church when Aydan used to snuggle on my lap during sacrament. It is true i needed a break but now i know how much my girls are a part of me in every way and i am so blessed to have them in my life and how much joy and laughter they bring as well. Mike sent me this video of them jumping on the jumpaline as Aydan calls it doing splits in the air. I was laughing and crying at the same time. Oh how i miss my sweet sweet girls. I am excited they get to come home this weekend for Mikes graduation. I am sure Aydan will stay home she has been calling for the last few days saying she wants to come home....awwww mysweet little one misses...MADI? Yep she calls to talk to Madi not me....(tears) which is funny cause she is soooo mean to Madison all the time when they are together which is odd but maybe she will be nicer now that they are apart.....ha ha not...she is three. But i can dream! Oh well i love them all so much! I miss my family being together....soon enough though at least it is not a year right? Sorry if this video is sideways....sometimes i hate the phone videos.
