Great giveaway!

My friend Justina is hosting a giveaway for some great Redkin products. Go check it out on her blog! http://onmyperch.blogspot.com/

I'm in love!

So I am not quite sure how I came across this website, but I love it. It is called handbagheaven.com. I have always really liked purses, but not over the top loved them or anything. Normally I just stick with shoes. :) HOWEVER, I am in LOVE with these bags right now. Now, I just have to convince David...

Is this not the cutest wallet you have ever seen. It is hard covered and lots of room inside!
These yellow one just says, "Hello, it's summer!"

I love this one too. So cute for a girls night out! Or date night!!

Ahhh...it is fun to druel! Hmm..now to find some matching shoes!

T-Ball!

So, thanks to my good friend Hailey, I was able to find a place for Spencer to start T-ball! He is actually almost done now, but we all know what a slacker I am on my blog! For as long as he has been old enough to answer, whenever I asked Spencer what he wanted to play, he would always say baseball. I didn't think there were any places where he could play before he turned 5, but NYS has t-ball for 3-4 year olds! Yea! Here are some cute pics from practice and his first game. They are so funny to watch!

This is right before his first practice. He seems to have forgotten how to smile normal lately! Can't wait for the professional one to come back! lol!

His first practice.

His first game! I have shorten his pants since then so you can see his cute socks! :)

A sneak peek of our weekend

Some good old family fun! (those are my parents rockin' the bottom pic!)

My tax season survival guide

Finally my computer is behaving again, so here is a really long post!!!



Step 1 - take a trip right before tax season starts. See previous Disneyland post.

Step 2 - have a crappy economy, so your husband won't have to work as many hours. (Not a necessity, but it definately helped!)

Step 3 - take a girls trip sometime during tax season. In this case it happened to be to Disneyland again! It was a very happy birthday to Heather and Amy and just plain fun for Chelsea and I!!!

Step 4 - Take a long trip to visit a relative during one of those last few crunch weeks. We went to visit my sister in Utah and the kids had a blast! I am not sure who had more fun! I was worried about traveling alone, but it wasn't as bad as I thought.

Step 5 - Celebrate the end of tax season with some much needed family time! We went to the lake, Lied's children museum and played some t-ball (those pics will be saved for their own post!)

That my friends is how I survived and survive I did!

I tried!

So I have a post with pictures have finsihed, but for some reason I can't get the second group of pics to post! It waits for forever and then gives an error, so I guess we will try again tomorrow...

Valentine's day - finally!!

Yes, it has really been that long! I would like to make my blog into a book one of these days, which is the only reason I am going back soooo far! So if you are looking for something more recent, you will just have to wait! As for us, for Valentine's day we just go out to a nice dinner somtime around Valentine's day and call it good. This year we went to Brio at Town Square. It was really yummy. We also decided to watch a movie while we had a babysitter. As for Valentine's day it was all about the boys. We started our day with some pink doughnuts for the boys and some cute homemade mini quiche for David and I. (I have a pic of this, but I am trying to make these old post short and sweet.) Then we headed out and to feed the ducks at Rhodes Ranch. My boys love this activity, even if my husband thinks we are going to get hit by a stray ball one of these days!

Okay, so the next part of our day was just plain funny. We bought Spencer a kite for Valentine's day and David was determined to fly it that day because Spencer was so excited about it. I tried and tried to tell him there was no way no how enough wind, but he knew best so off to the park we went. Well, as we all know, women know best and that kite went nowhere despite a very valiant effort from David! The kids still had fun running and rolling down the hill.

{Pictures were supposed to go here of attempted kite flying, but my computer sucks and I can't seem to get them uploaded! Luckily my new computer is coming soon!}

Pictures coming soon!

I have been very neglectful of my blog. It is just one of those things I want to do, but never get around to! BUT today I am finally taking the pictures of my camera, all 407 of them! Yes, I take a lot of pictures and yes it has been a while! So this week should finally be filled with some new posts! As for what's going on with us, not too much. I only have 5 more weeks of school left to teach and while I am not teaching again next year, I must say I am glad I did this year. It made me really appreciate staying home. I didn't realized how MUCH I missed it until Spring Break last week. Apparently working stresses me out. I was so relaxed while visiting my sister and yes I was on vacation, but it was more than that. I didn't HAVE to be out of the house at a certain time in the mornings, so I wasn't getting frustrated with the boys first thing in the morning and I was able to start my days out on a much better note. Anyway, it will be nice to stay home again. I am VERY grateful I get to. As for David, he just finsihed tax season, so it is nice to have him back. He didn't have to work as much as usual this year, which made things a lot easier, but he still gets stressed from work. I love that he only had to work 1 Saturday this year. It was great! Spencer just started tee ball, very cute pictures to come. And Jaxon, well, he's as cute and as troublesome as ever. He has finally started talking more, which is marvelous! And that's it. I have much to post, so as soon as these pictures finished downloading I will get started!

Silly Boys

Gotta love this bathtime fun! Both boys were cracking up!

Disneyland!

So I am finally to our Disneyland pictures. We decided to take a quick weekend trip before tax season really started. We had a blast! We were both pleasantly surprised with how much Jaxon liked it! He is all about being a big boy, so he thought it was great when he got to go on some rides. He also loved Minnie Mouse. Spencer said he wanted to see Minnie and Mickey and then freaked out when when it was our turn! Good thing Disneyland wasn't busy so we didn't wait very long at either one. Spencer proved yet again that he is my son by riding Big Thunder Mountain at night! He is so little and was definately scared, but he did it and was okay afterwards. It definately helped that it was a train. :) I also just kept telling him how his cousins love that ride. :) In the end he said he liked it, but did not want to ride it again! lol!

This was a little backwards from what I expected.^

Jaxon having the time of his life!

Well, I did tell him to put shoes on....

This was funny. It was not so funny when a few minutes later I found out he gave my heels to Cora to use as a shovel in the sandbox!

Thank you!

Thanks to everyone for the dentist suggestions! Now I just have to go through and find out which one is on my plan!

Good dentist anyone?

Does anyone know a good dentist on this side of town? I am tired of driving so far to all my doctors. Anyone know any good ones that are close?

I leave the room for 2 seconds...
