I was recently tagged by Kitsie Carr and here are the rules:
1. Post the rules on your blog
2. Write 6 random things about yourself
3. Tag 6 people at the end of your post
4. If you are tagged, just do it, and pass the tag along!

1. I sometimes wish that I had enough money where I didn't have to work, I had a cleaning lady, and could spend a lot of time with my 3 little girls and still had plenty of time to spend with my closest friends.

2. I love sports, you name it I love it.. I sometimes thing back to highschool when athletics came easy for me.. sometimes I wish I was young again!

3. I often daydream about my new house being done and am hoping and praying all my friends help me decorate, that is one thing you need to know about me, I am NOT creative and have no desire to decorate this new house... So if you enjoy it, let me know.. you are hired!

4. I love photos, taking them and looking at them. I often take photos of my girls for no reason just to watch them grow before my eyes and show them off to all my friends and family! I love them dearly!

5. Summer is my favorite season, I like Fall too; however I could handle the weather not getting below 50 degrees and enjoying life!

6. Along the same lines as Kitsie, a date, I can't even remembre the last "date" that I had with Ryan. I truly never see him, I can totally relate to the no real alone time for mom. However I guess as I look back I have cherished each day with the girls, even though there are days I could pull my hair out. I wouldn't have wanted to miss some of the special moments with each of them!

I tag... Becky , Tammy, (I know you were tagged, sorry) Tifanie, Kristen, Emily, and I am not sure..
Enjoy!

A Day with Gavin.. Our Cousin!

Today we had Gavin over to play. Each of the girls wanted to have a picture where they were holding him. The girls truly enjoy having him around, they are pretty good big cousins! Avery and Gavin are exactly a year a part, but she still claims to be the "big" cousin and wants to hold him... The last picture is Gavin going up the stairs.. he has learned to master the stairs! Thanks for coming to play with us Gavin!

Kids Kids and more Kids!

Friday we had McKinley's "kid" birthday party. Her birthday was actually September 22nd, but Friday was the first weekend we had free! She invited 10 friends and her sister Lexi got to join the fun too, so we had 12 little kids ages 6, 5 and 4. Wow.. We started at the pizza ranch and had pizza, cheese sticks and ice cream cake!!!! McKinley opened her gifts. Her friends are pretty special, as they treated her like a queen with all the wonderful gifts she received! It was then time to head over to Ma and Pa Lanes for some bowling!!! We had two teams of 6 and it worked pretty well! All and all I think the kids had a great time. Mom and dad were ready for the night to end; however all the kids were very well behaved, so it was a great time!

Lexi's First Day of Pre-School!!!

Today was Lexi's first day of Pre-school. She will be going to Russeel on Tuesday's and Thursday's for the full day! She was super excited this morning. We had to take a few pictures before school. Of course we had to get one of the backpack! Dora is still one of her favorites! The last picture is big sister so excited to have her sister ride the bus with her! When I picked Lexi up from daycare she wouldn't stop talking about her day at school. So many stories to tell and not enough breaths to get it all said! It is fun to see her so excited as I was somewhat worried how she would do. I think we are going to be just fine going forward! Happy 1st day of school Lexi!

DANCE DANCE DANCE

McKinley and Lexi are invited to "friends" day at dance tomorrow. Kate Cowell is taking Lexi and Allie Christianson is taking McKinley. Shawna brought over extra dance outfits for the girls to wear tomorrow, but of course, the girls couldn't wait until tomorrow. Thank goodness she sent an extra set as Avery had to try one on too! I think they are both ready to enjoy the fun tomorrow.. Avery too, man will she be upset when she finds out that she has to stay with mom!

Loving Sisters!

The other day I went in to wake up the girls and the above photo is what I found. McKinley and Lexi normally share a bed while we are in the process of building; however Avery has her own bed. I do remember hearing Avery get up in the middle of the night, but she didn't come to find me, so I didn't get up to check. She must have been feeling left out, so jumped into bed with her sisters. It looks a little tight, but they didn't seem to mind! I am sure I won't have very many opportunities to catch a photo like this, so took advantage while I could!

Not Private Anymore!

Good morning everyone.. Well, I decided to open my blog back up to everyone. There were individuals that I had forgotten to invite to view my blog and others that were invited, but had trouble viewing. I am a little hesitant as I had some comments from individuals that I didn't know; but I am willing to take the chance again. Enjoy!
