Happy Birthday!

Yesterday I turned Big 25! Eric planned out the day, we started off by going to the Drpaer Parade in the morning and then went up to Sundance for the afternoon. We rode up the chair lift and hicked around for a bit and then rode back down, and finished off our Pizza for lunch. Then for Kaden's present him and I went to see Toy Story 3! It was a very cute movie and we loved it. We will defenitly be buying that one for sure. We then we to my parents house for dinner and they were hard at work while we were enjoying th movie, and made Alfredo and Asparagus and grilled chicken. It was fabulous! My sweet husband made me a Chocolate cake with white frosting and sprinkles. It was a great day and we had so much fun. Thanks Eric for all the planning to make it so specail. Love you.

Once Upon a Time....

For July 4th, we met my family in California and stayed there for a week! We had a Blast!! We did Disneyland for one day and the boys loved it. I must say I now understand why parents take there kids for a couple of days, and not just one day, cause it gets exhausting! Kaden never got a nap in and Tige did take a little nap, but it was all worth it! We loved it! Kaden was so excited to See Woody and Jessie. At first he was nervous to see all the characters, but then he started getting more comfortable. We would wait in line to say hi and Kaden would get up there and say, "Hey dude", give a big hi-five. and then run off. And he wanted to see Minnie which we were a little surprised. :) It was definitly HOT! So we stopped to get an ice cream, and I love those frozen bananas dipped in chocolate with nuts on top, and Kaden got a Mickey Mouse ice cream in chocolate, and by that time he was soooo tired can you tell in the picture.

Then came time for the BIG parade! We had so much fun dancing and singing along. The people in the parade asked for kids to dance with them, so me being a FUN mom, pushed Kaden out there and he loved running around the float, whiling the guy in the parade chased him! And he ran around like 10 times! It was so funny. We were so glad we got it on video.

We also did the beach a couple of days, and the boys loved the sand and running into the waves. We beat my family there by a couple of hours and so to past the time, we went to the beach with my sister, and the boys were so excited to cool off and play in the water, Eric took them down and it was so sweet to see all 3 of them playing in the water and Kaden ended up without his shirt and shorts on cause he got soak in wet! And Tige in a very saggy wet diaper. A couple of days into the trip my parents rented bikes for all of us to ride on the board walk. Kaden thought it was so cool to ride right behind Eric and go so fast. And I was not thinking very clearly cause I wore a skirt and it kept on flying up and my garments were showing the entire time I was peddling. It was so embarrassing! So finally I took my dad's blue jacket and tied it around my waist to cover my garments as much as I could.

By the end of the trip we had a blast and were so grateful to my parents for taking us and paying for our Hotel. We love you guys and Thanks again for the wonderful memories!
