Trip to Arizona!

Monika, Crystal and I made the daring trip to Arizona without our husbands and caravanning in two vans with 8 kids between us (granted 5 of them were Monika's). The drive actually went really well and we made good time even stopping to feed the twins and letting me walk around to avoid blood clots as my doctors advised. Jenny and her kids were able to fly in from Oklahoma and Tyler was able to be there for the day too.
We did it all to be there when Cortney graduated high school! Wow! My little sister graduated high school! We had such a good time and it was so fun getting to hang out with Cortney... I can't believe how amazing
she is... I've just been so impressed how she has grown up to be such a great person. She is so talented in photography and very creative in every other aspect of her life. She is so beautiful and you can tell that everyone she knows just adores her! Just like her family does. I love you Cortney and I'm so proud of you!

Besides graduation we had blast hanging out at grandma and grandpa's house. The boys had so much fun playing with cousins and being spoiled by their grandparents. We all enjoyed the pool, shopping and even some "unusual" rain for the season, which made things cool off and be so nice. Being 8 months pregnant I was pretty hot and tired the during the trip but everyone was nice enough to let me take a nap during the day which was pretty awesome. And of course we went garage selling and had a lot of fun finding some cool stuff and good deals.
Here are some pictures from our trip... Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for letting us invade your house! W
e loved it!

Wyatt's Birthday!

I can't believe my baby is 2... He is getting so big! We had a great time at his birthday. Wyatt loves trains so for his birthday he got a train set so that he and Carson could have their own trains. The boys love playing trains and now there is less fighting about who gets to be the train. I made Wyatt a Thomas the train cake and while we were eating it he kept saying "Eat Thomas, Eat Thomas." It was pretty cute.
