Soccer

Jaden's Wahoo soccer team and coach.







Half time. Fueling up with a banana.






Jaden was out for this quarter. Relaxing on the side lines with mom and dad.





Jaden's soccer season has ended. He enjoyed playing AYSO (American Youth Soccer Organization) for his second season. At this age and on this league they don't keep score (although the kids kept score). Jaden was player #8, team name Wahoo's.
Now it's time for the next sport.....Basketball.

Clovis California

This weekend we went to Clovis to visit our friends. Kristie and I grew up with each other in the Bay area. Now that we both live in California we try to get together with our husbands and kids. Here are some pictures of our visit.The kids just hanging out playing on Jaden's Nintendo DS.
Kristie and Gannon. This is the day of Gannon's big birthday bash. He turned 1 years old.
Jaden and Amber just pulling faces for the camera. Sweet kids.
Here is Jaden and Devyn just chillin. Still tired from there slumber parties.
While we were in Clovis, Jaden lost his bottom right tooth. He has lost a total of 3 teeth. The tooth fairy came and left him 4 quarters. He was happy.

All in all we just hung out like the good old days.

Beach Time!!!

Yeah, it's beach time.








My brother David and his family were in town visiting from Utah so we had a beach trip. We enjoyed some fun in the sun!! We are looking forward to several more visits to the beach now that the weather has gotten HOT.

Kids+Presents= A Happy Mother's Day

On Friday I went to Jaden's school for a Mother's Day tea. The kids sang to their mother's and gave them gifts that they had made. Below you will see Jaden's painting of me and the plate that he made for me. It was a great Mother's Day tea, and I will cherish that day forever!




Jaden, I loved eating cookies and drinking punch with you and the rest of the class. You were so excited about this day that you woke up at 6:00 am and said it was time to get ready for school. You don't have to be to school until 11:30. I appreciate all the thoughtful words you wrote to me (saying I weigh 96 pounds and 96 inches, I'm beautiful, I'm 32 years old, and I'm most happy when you smile). I adored your great singing voice during the kindergarten performance. What a special day it was with just me and you.

Jake got up with the kids today and let me sleep in. It was so nice not having to wake up with the kids and hurry along like we do every morning. I enjoyed sleeping in and relaxing around the house until it was time to get ready for 1:00 pm church. Honey thank you for all that you do and for the nice mother's day gift. Your the BEST!!!!!!!
