Thanksgiving/Turkey Trot

We had such a fun Thanksgiving. We started the morning walking a 5K as a family, it was really fun. It is called "THE TURKEY TROT" the money goes to benefit our kids schools. The girls did great..even Jos got out and literal walked/jogged a mile. Later that day we walked on the beach and of course had an AMAZING turkey dinner, cooked by Boomer's Mom. Boomer's Mom and Mark came down and even his brother dropped by for dinner. It was so fun to have them here.


The pictures aren't the best we are having camera issues...but you can at least see our success ;o)


We went on a fun walk on the beach with the girls before we ate our wonderful dinner. Mark took some great shots of us playing on the beach. One of the shots is a blk/white picture of a spider on his web that turned out really cool, and a cute one of Boomer and Luke!!

HOMEWORK CAN WAIT!!!

When I went to go get the girls from school yesterday the beach looked amazing. So, I picked them up, we went home and took off to the beach. It was such a beautiful day!! It did get pretty cool as soon as the sunset, the girls were all shivering and ready for a hot bath!!


(click on picture to enlarge)

You can't tell but, the brighter sunset pictures has dolphins in it, there was a huge pod of them swimming through the sunset!!

Words from Morgan, "Mom, Utah is so lucky, they get snow and I have to live by the beach with the sun, it's not fair." So, funny. My poor deprived child ;o)!!

SOOO FUN!!

My friend and I went to the funniest place today with the kids!! I only wish I had room in my house to have ones these rooms!! Enjoy the pictures!!

Fun Day at The Game....

Morgan had the opportunity to perform at the halftime of the SDSU vs. TCU game on Saturday!! It was really fun, you get seats right by the field. Boomer was so excited to go watch the game. The weather was perfect. Here some fun pictures of the day.

Some random pictures of the day..at one point I had 2 kids on me...we had missed their naps and they were tired..it kept me warm ;o)


The whole game we were trying to get Rylee to get a picture with there "HUNKY" mascot, but all she wanted to do is to watch the cheerleaders and get her picture with them. So, after the game we went and got a picture with the cheerleaders, she was SOOO EXCITED!!!
When we left ALL 3 kids were asleep within a mile of leaving....a nice quiet drive home...LOVE IT!!!

Fun Times In Life!!

Boomer and some of his family and friends decided to go on a 200 mile bike ride in three days down the coast. They had so much fun and saw some beautiful scenery on the way!! Boomer's Mom sadly hurt her foot the day before they took off on the adventure and couldn't ride, but other than that everyone was safe and had a great time!!


Fun times when family comes to visit. My Mom came in town for a visit while Boomer was on his trek, then we were able to spend the evening with Boomer's family before they had to head back home!!

A sPoOkTaCuLaR Day At Sea World!!!

We had such a great time at Sea World on Saturday. We went up for the opening on the "SPOOKTACULAR" events. The girls got to different station to go trick or treating. They had a blast. They got some candy but, they also got banana's (little, tiny ones, I took a picture), peanut butter and pretzels. Very healthy!! They had people dressed up as characters in the CANDYLAND game, it was cute!! We loved the Queen..well she was the only one my girls got somewhat close too..the others kinda freaked them out :) (WE HAVE ISSUES WITH COSTUMES IN MY HOME)

Fun Random Pictures!!!

Rylee was holding Luke and she started screaming.MOM bring the camera Luke is hugging me...HURRY TAKE A PICTURE!!!


Morgan was holding him and he laid his head down on her and cuddled in...she did the same thing..MOM TAKE A PICTURE!!!


Well since we didn't get that house, I have been busy moving rooms all around to fit us ALL in to this place. We put the girls all together in a room and Luke has his own room... Jos's bed is in with the girls right now because, she WAS NOT GIVING UP HER BED...that will come....she will be sharing a bed with Morgan...


It is a full room, it's not all done or decorate...BUT THEY ARE IN...now I get to have fun and play :)




Here is Luke's room, he has a few more months in this bed....


Rylee was looking like a DIVA ready for school, so we did a little photo shoot ;) FUNNY GIRL!!








Jos had to join in..don't ya like the little model lips...so funny!! She is looking a little shaggy...

The Start Of Our Vacation...

We were headed to Utah for a two weeks vacation BUT, had to stop in Las Vegas for Boomer to meet with some accounts for an afternoon of golf. SO, the kids and I had to find something to do...I did a little researching and found a Children's Museum. We dropped Boomer off and went and checked it out....it was amazing. The kids loved it, we were there for probably 4-5 hours and the kids were bummed when we had to leave. So, if you are ever in Vegas I would definitely check it out.

The funniest thing about the exhibit that week was the "GROSSOLOGY" exhibit. It is a show on Kids Discovery channel, there exhibit consist of, "WHY DO WE BELCH", a "SKIN" rock wall, "WHY DO WE HAVE SNOT" and the last BUT not least "WHY DO WE TOOT, TOOT"....I have pictures to prove this all to you!!




WHY WE BELCH, for knowledge on the subject click on the picture to read the sign...


The visual of WHY WE BLECH...yes, such amazing sounds coming from this gentleman....


The "SKIN" rock wall


This was Jos's favorite, the big faucet man told a story about why we have SNOT. Jos kept pushing the button and would YELL, "HERE COMES THE SNOT", with a giggle. AGAIN MOM, AGAIN!! FUN TIMES.


The bigger SNOT drop


BUT this is the kids favorite...the "TOOT, TOOT" machine. You must click on the picture so you can read and have a better knowledge of "TOOTING"( it is pretty funny). The red pipes you see are the visual affect of "TOOTING". The size of the pipe affects the sound and the amount of vibration that might come from ones "TOOT"....the girls were laughing so hard there were actually tears coming down their face. You could put your hand over the pipe and feel the vibration...YES, I know you are all jealous. :) (PLEASE DON'T TRY THIS ON A REAL PERSON) :)



Then off to grocery shopping, they had a mini "SMITH'S", which the girls were so excited about (get it our last name..SMITH..) ..they were able to shop and check each other out....






Luke and the fish were going crossed eyed together :)


Luke enjoying the merchandise:)


And off to the garage..the girls got a paper that told them what to fix...and when they were done they got a pay check...$10 bucks :)




Jos getting into it with the muffler..she was not afraid to get under the car..you would have been so proud FRED!!


This was my favorite..it was a human bubble. You stood in the center of the circle and then with a pully you dropped a metal ring around you into some bubbles and then let go and the hoop would go up in casing you in bubbles..I was so bummed I couldn't get a picture before it popped..BUT SO FUN!!!


the airplane..there was a bagging area that you put some luggage on and went through security..the girls loved being the security guard...


Jos loved the water area...it had little water falls and rubber ducks.....


Rylee and Jos loved this a STAGE with lots and lots of dress up clothes. Morgan pulled the curtains and the girls played Princesses...there was a ballroom floor in front of the stage to dance on...then some bleachers for the parents to seat on and watch.....


Cinderella :)


You had to pull up your own weight...


The girls are still mad at me for making them try this...it is a booth that you can experience a hurricane..the wind gust is up to 60 MPH...they didn't like it at all....OOPPSS!!


This was Morgan's favorite....she would have done this all day. It was a radio station with a DJ and you pretended to sing on air..she choose a Hannah Montana song and did a great job. The whole 2nd floor can hear you sing. She had a blast being in the light and singing :)

a little muppet show....


and even a little spot for Luke, he was glad to get out of my arms and the stroller and play ;)
