EASTER!!!!



Here we are doing the egg coloring thing. Kara thought it was really fun to make her hands all pink. The girls had a lot of fun doing this. Gary also really likes to color eggs, he is really creative and we had some really fun eggsThen we went over to the huge riverside Easter egg hunt. This is usually a lot of fun and the girls get a lot of eggs. This year they didn't do so good. Ryleigh Jo just ran around and only got 4 eggs and Shandee only got 2, Kara did a little better with dad helping her. Luckily their cousin got like 30 eggs, so she shared. It was still fun.
Then we went to see the Easter bunny. Notice Shandee is not in this picture. I would like to lie and say she was scared of the bunny, but actually we stood in line forever and when it was our turn I could not find her. (She went back to grandpa's house with him.)
After the hunt we went to my grandma's house for a cook out. It is really fun because I get to see most of my cousins that I don't see very often. This was all on Saturday.Then on Sunday the Easter bunny found us and the girl's got lots of chocolate and some fun little toys. Then they had to find the eggs he hid outside. Kara was just happy to be outside!


Then we went to church. These are the cute dresses that my mom made for the girls. They really didn't want to get their pictures taken. Ryleigh Jo had to give a talk in primary. I was writing it about Easter and she wanted to know if she could talk about Brandee (Her aunt) So I let her help me write a part in the talk about Brandee, it was really good. After church we went to Gary's family and them mine for awhile. It was really a great Easter, we did a lot and had a lot of fun.

Disney on Ice


We took our little princesses to Disney on Ice on Saturday. It was soo much fun, I,m glad we decided to go.
They all dressed up too. Ryleigh Jo was Belle, Shandee was sleeping beauty and Kara was snow white. The show was so cute. Ryleigh Jo was very quiet the whole time and didn't say anything, that means she was really happy. Shandee
was so excited each new princess that came out she would scream their name, and Kara would wave to each princess as they were leaving and she would scream every once in a while. She was really good the whole time. Daddy wasn't too sure it was that much fun, but he went anyway! What a good daddy we have he loves watching all the princess shows with us!

Kara Nicola


Kara is our baby girl. She is 17 months old. She was born on October 27, 2006. We named her Kara because Gary wanted to use a comic book name and it was the only cute on I could agree on. It is the name of super girl. We got Nicola from my great-great-grandmother. She was an Indian.
Kara is so much fun to have in our family. She is a good girl. She loves her big sisters. It seems like she is growing up way too fast, because she wants to do everything her sister's are doing. The third kid is definitely the hardest. I had heard having two is not too bad, but when the third comes it makes everything harder, and it does!! She can get into so much trouble sometimes, she is by far my hardest!! But we love her!
She is already starting to figure out that she wants to go to grandpa and grandma's house. Grandpa is having a hard time juggling 3 girls, but he does a good job, they just love him!!

We call Kara "KARe bear" She loves playing with her sister's and all the fun toys we have. She also is becoming a daddy's little girl. They spend all day together while I am at work, and she is sad when he goes to work at night. We are so glad Kara came into our family we just love her cute personality and it is fun to hear her start to talk more and more.

Shandee V.

Shandee is our little monkey! She is 4 years old. She is so much fun! Shandee loves horses, for her birthday she got three barns and about 50 horses! She really likes poneyville too. She is also a really good big sister, even though Kara and her are about the same size in clothes and shoes. Shandee is taller. Shandee is going to speech once a week at fielding. She is struggling with her "D" sounds and "SH" she was really having a hard time one week when we were practicing saying dog and duck, she told me she was just going to start saying those words in Spanish. She is really a funny girl

If there was one person Shandee would want to spend time with it would be grandpa, She just loves him! He does everything she tells him to do. He is really good at being her horse.

Ryleigh Jo

O.k. So I thought it might be a good idea to kind of introduce and talk about each of my kids a little bit, for those of you who may not know them very well. And hopefully if I can add some cute pictures of each of my girls.

Ryleigh Jo just turned 7 on march 7th. she is our little princess! She is such a good kid. She is in the 1st grade, her teacher is Mrs. Reeder. She loves going to school. She is such a social butterfly, (Unlike her mom) She loves making new friends and she really tries to be every one's friend. When she was really little we were kind of worried what might happen to her because she would walk up to complete strangers and start talking to them. She also is doing really well in school. She really likes to read. She loves Junie B. Jones chapter books. Her teacher said she is on a 3rd grade reading level. She is also a good speller (unlike her mom) I wonder where she came from? My brother always said 2 dumbs = a smart!! Anyway, she really is a good girl. She is a really good big sister and she is a good helper at home.
Ryleigh Jo loves to play polly pocket and brats, she just got a play house for her birthday. She also really likes anything princess. I thought it was a phase she would grow out of, but she still really likes it. For the past 4 years on Halloween she has been a princess. She also really loves going to grandma's house!!

Starting my blog

Hey, I thought I would give this a try. It will be fun to keep in touch with friends, that I havn't seen for awhile. It will also be fun to show off cute pictures and things that we have been doing. I'm not too smart on the computure, I had to have my good friend Amy Help me a few times, and I still don't think I can do everything she showed me, oh well I'll give it a try for awhile it will be fun!
