Dylin and Landin's Birthday Party!

Since Dylin and Landin's birthdays are just over a week apart we combine their bdays for the party! Landin really wanted a Finding Nemo theme so we went with it! It turned out great and we had a lot of fun!

I have made a shadow box for all three boys of things from the day they were born! This is Dylin's shadow box :)

I also make a 1st year video for all of the boys! This is showing the menu page but gives a good preview of some pictures and videos in it!

Party favors....Real god fish! "Hey Fishy Fishy Fishy!"

Okay, sorry for having a ton of pictures of the cake but it is AMAZING! Lori did an amazing job....again!

Ladnin wanted to make some decorations!

FOOD!

"Crush" Soda

Ugh...the morning was windy as we were setting up which totally destroyed my jelly fish decoration that hung down :(

Everyone starting to show up!

I LOVE my small group girls...I forgot to chop the onion for our hot dog bar so they all came together to chop our very strong onions that made all their eyes water lol

Malachi is always loyal to Leroy at every party....I wonder why? ;)

The boys helped me make sharks in water (shark gunnies in jello) and Ocean Water (blue cool aid).

Slip n slide time! I made a little sprinkler out of PVC pipe that spanned the width of our slide. I think it helped a lot with getting the water evenly on the slide!!!

Nathan enjoying the sprinkler!

Kids got to ride 'Mr. Ray" down the slide :)

Baby pool for those who don't like all the craziness on the slide :)

Dylin with Grandma :)

It's riding time!

Presents...

Dylin's new wheels!

After the party we allowed the boys to do their pinata that they got as a gift from our neighbors! It was so much fun!

Wonderful little company!

Yesterday I had the honor to watch Nathan. Nathan's parents are Matt and Sonya, friends from our small group at church. We had a blast all afternoon. Both the boys didn't take naps so I thought it was going to be a rough afternoon but I think they got energy from one another. I was nervous for dinner time too but they both did great. Both ate like champs...even ate their vegetables! I put these two to work right away lol Busy building something great! We went outside for a bit. It was hard to keep these two together in the front so we headed out back! Nathan loved exploring! Showing me a sweet rock that he found! Jamin exploring too! Wondering where he should go next. There are so many things to see in our backyard The boys looking at the rocks and weeds lol Nathan showing Jamin the treasure (weed) that he found! We played on the swings for a while too. One would be in this swing while I held the other in the other swing! (Sorry my...

4/20-4/24

I couldn't really think of a title for this post so I decided to just states the dates lol. Last week Jamin and I went to Focus on the Family with our friends Sonya and Nathan. I just got done reading Bringing Up Boys which was written by the Founder of Focus on the Family, Dr. James Dobson. Although Focus on the Family is a place I would hear about while growing up, I really didn't know a lot about it. My friend Sonya went to their Institute and so our trip planning began to go visit it! Group picture after taking the tour We can never get a great shot of the boys lol These were taken in their really awesome play area! Love this picture! Stroller parking!!! A smile that makes my heart melt everytime! Jamin and Nathan Mommy was way too big for this little boat lol Silly faces We also went to the zoo with Sonya and Nathan last week. Here are a few pictures! We even go the moose in the picture! Jamin got scared of the big hippo :( ...

Road Trip Part 5

Monday morning rolled around and we decided to make our way from Bozeman down to the West Yellowstone Entrance. The drive was amazingly gorgeous! Just driving in Harvey! We made it to West Yellowstone but were turned away from two different RV parks because of the amount of kids we had with us. This was the first time I have ever felt looked down upon and discriminated against. I literally had one man ripped a piece of paper out of my hands because he didn't even want to consider letting that many people stay in his park. I explained to him that they are all young and well behaved kids but apparently he has had way too many bad experiences with kids. We didn't let it get us down though. We finally found one that didn't have any concerns letting 4 adults come in with 5 kiddos. The place was actually brand new and the closest RV park to the west Yellowstone entrance so we really lucked out!!! After we got checked in we decided to go into the park ...
