Busy, Busy, Busy!

So sorry that I have not been able to post much lately, we have been super busy refinishing our basement. Our laundry room and our bathroom has been cement and 2x4's for five years now. Needless to say, we are almost done with the laundry room (pictures to come), then on the the next room. I am sure I have some pictures to post about the things that have been going on lately so hopefully I can find some time to get those on here.

Kaimen

This Kaimen dancing in the car while we were waiting for Zach to get off school. It is so funny. Sorry it is sideways but I had the camera turned funny and it wont let me change it.

Kaimens Birthday Party

Kaimen had alot of fun at her party, she was so glad that her family could be there to party with her, and we had a blast "Just Dancing", the kids love that game.

She got lots of fun toys and clothes. Thanks to everyone for the gifts.

Kaimen wanted a present cake this year, so here it is.

Kaimens 5th Birthday

For Kaimen's birthday we went to the Discovery Gateway during the day. It was alot of fun and she just loves when we get to go there.

Zach posing for a picture, that is about all he could do on a wall that is as tall as he is. haha

My sister Madde and Kaimen.

Ayden in the play kitchen cooking up some food.

Ayden and Averi on the fun bikes they have at Discovery.

Soldier Hollow

We got to go to Soldier Hollow for Ty's work party this year, it was alot of fun. Although the twins were less than thrilled about it. We got them to go down the hill a couple of times but then they were not having anymore.

Here's Ty with Zach and Kaimen, they loved it.

Christmas Eve Game Night.

We got together at my in laws on Christmas Eve for a game night, and we had so much fun. My in laws bought the bop-it game and we had so much fun playing that, although the pics of that are way to embarassing. The pictures below are the kids playing an old game, I am not even sure the name of it, but the object is after you tie a string around your waste you tie a jar ring around the other end. Then you bend down over a pop bottle and try and get the ring on the bottle. haha, it is so funny to watch and the kids seriously think it is so fun.

Christmas Morning

The kids coming up the stairs to see there presents.

Averi and Ayden on there new big kid bikes.
Kaimen on her new pink bike, she was so excited.

Zach, super excited about his new laptop.

Christmas was so much fun this year, all the kids are so big now it is just so cute to see them get so excited about Christmas. I am so greatful to have such a wonderful family and I feel so blessed to have all that I do in my life.

Favorite Sister in Law

I am not sure how many of you know how much I love my
sister in law Nikki. So I thought I would give her a post of her own.
She is so amazing. Tyson and I love her so much. I bet everyone wishes they had a sister in law like Nikki. My kids adore her. She is their favorite Aunt, just ask them.

Family Pics

Here are some of our new family pictures. Thanks to my sister in law Nikki for once again taking some great pictures. I will post the other ones tomorrow when I have more time.

Trip to see Ty

Ty had to go to Pennsylvania for work, so for my birthday he bought me a plane ticket to go out and see him for a weekend while he was there. It was alot of fun, we drove to Baltimore Maryland and went to the Aquarium there. It was so fun to see him, I hate that he is gone.

These two turtles look like there were stuck, this is actually underwater and they just chilled like that the whole time.
