Summer Days.. Having a Blast..

I can't believe the summer is here, Gabriel only has 2 1/2 weeks left until he starts school. The summers are way too short now a days, I remember I didn't start school until late August or early September, I wish it was like that now. We have had a great summer so far keeping busy. The only thing we haven't done yet is go boating but we are planning on it next week.

We took the kids to Jump and Play, they had a blast.

My handsome boys! Bella was passed out so she missed the picture. We had a BBQ at our house for the 4th of July. Unfortunatly we didn't make it to Utah but we had fun. The kids swam all night until it was time to go see the fireworks. I can't believe the year is half over! CRAZY!

*DIVA*

Watching the fireworks

This is what happens when your the youngest out of three siblings. Haha!

My sweet little king, he makes me smile.

Falling in love with water! my kids love these spray pads. I was dripping sweat watching them cuz it's so dang hot here in the desert!

Jeremiah loved this, he got sprayed in the face a little and it took his breath away.

My little Kinder-Graduate

Gabriel graduated from kindersteps on June 3rd. We went to his little star day program. It was so cute to see him singing. He'll be going to 1st grade this fall, his teacher said he should do fine. I did want to put him in kindergarten but the teacher said he might get bored because the curriculum for kindersteps is similar to kindergarten so we'll see how he does. I can't believe my baby is gonna go to school all day, I will definetly miss him. He is so excited to be able to take a lunch box and go to school all day. He's more excited than I am :(


So cute!
Gabriel is teaching Bella how to fight.
My little guy got his black belt, he is no longer a dragon. He is a high white(I think that's what it's called) he gets to be in the regular class with the older kids and adults. He's kinda intimidated but he's getting used to it. They don't play around as much and it's 1hour instead of a half hour so it will take some getting used to. I am so proud of my handsome boy.

Happiness is being married to your best friend...

This day I will marry my friend
the one I laugh with, live for,
dream with, Love.
This was on our wedding invite May 14, 1999. Time has gone by sooo fast, I can't believe it's been 10 years and three kids later. We went and had dinner at some nice restaurant Mastro's. It was really good, they gave us a dessert that said Happy Anniversary. They must have known from our reservation, it was really nice. Ryan wanted to go away for the weekend but I'm not willing to leave my little Jeremiah over-night just yet, maybe in a couple of months. It's been so crazy/fun being married to Ryan, I can't beleive he's put up with me all these years but I'm glad he does, I love him with every breath I take. He's such an amazing man and I'm very lucky.Love ya babe!

PS
I'm so bad at blogging, I wish I had more time. That's why I have posted a few cause I know it will be awhile for the next one.

My big boy

Jeremiah is 4 1/2 months old. he is laughing, playing with his toes and love's to suck on them. Grabbing things constantly, the other day he grabbed for one of Gabriel's chips it was so funny. He's started to eat solids and is loving it, he just stare's at anybody who puts food in their mouth. He's starting to roll over from his belly. He got his first haircut three weeks ago, he looks so different but it was getting long and it was falling out in the back. He is such a happy baby, I love his squeals and when he kicks his legs and waves his arms when he gets excited.So SWEET!

*Fun with the camera*

My kids love to have their picture's taken and I think they look so cute in their matching outfits, i love having two boys and my drama queen. They are so much fun!

CALIFORNIA

We went to California on April 18th for a week. We had so much fun, the first day we hung out at the resort and went swimming. The kids were so excited to live in "our little house" they called it. They were bouncing off the walls, couches, beds and table's. On day one of our three day hopper we went to Disney California. The first two hours was spent sitting down waiting for Jeremiah to eat, then taking the kids to the bathroom. Ryan and Gabriel went on a ride while me and Bella waited at a play area for awhile then we couldn't seem to find eachother(Ryan forgot his cell phone) it was kinda frustrating but after that we got into the flow of things. Bella would have went on every ride if she could have but she was too small, she's a daredevil. Gabriel a little scared wouldn't go on some of the rides. The next day we went to the beach, it was perfect weather about 90. We stayed there all day, the kids were in heaven playing in the water, making sand castles and being burried by Ryan. The next day we went to Disneyland(I LOVE Disneyland!) it was sooo much fun and it was so sweet to see Gabriel and Bella's face's when they met the character's. One time we were walking to the next ride and Bella was skipping along in her Snow White dress singing so loud, it was so cute! She was so happy. Gabriel was also bouncing around and kept telling me he love's me. The following two days we spent at the beach, Newport and Hampton(?). We shopped the boutique's close to the beach, I got me some cute stuff. Then back to disneyland which by this time Ryan and I were thinking "what the hek were we thinking getting a three day hopper!" It was a lot of fun but sooo much work, what we parents do for our kids. It was a very fun and relaxing vacation, I love California and I can't wait to go back soon.

EASTER AND JEREMIAH'S BLESSING

Gianni, Gabriel and Amaleki=TROUBLE
