http://thatswhyilovethem.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
That's Why I Love Them. Tuesday, October 2, 2012. 12 girls together sure sounds an awful lot like 80 girls together. Despite the squealing and a few rounds of saying The Pledge of Allegiance, Elena's 5th Birthday Party was so fun. Elena wanted a Hula Party.not a Luau, but a Hula Party. I found some Hula Skirts and knew this party was a go. I only had 13 skirts,. Then we ate dinner and then made (Leis) Hula Necklaces. It was a little tricky to get them started. I took this picture of the pin the coconut o...

That's Why I Love Them: August 2012
http://thatswhyilovethem.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
That's Why I Love Them. Saturday, August 25, 2012. The big day that we have anticipated for years now has come and gone. We were on the fence for along time, as we were trying to decide if we should baptize Cody in Utah, so all our family could be there or here in Arizona. One of the many cool things about Cody's Baptism day is that he got to be Baptized right on his birthday. That is just how the cold water comes out of the tap in Mesa in the middle of August.) When he was being confirmed, I had the...

That's Why I Love Them. Thursday, June 28, 2012. Lucked out and were able to have swim lessons right in our very own back yard. Our neighbor and good friend Emilee needed a pool to teach swim. Lessons and we happened to need swim lessons, so we were. A perfect fit. For the past couple of weeks we have had a pool full of people a couple hours a day. Elena especially liked it because every 30 minutes there was a new friend to play with. The kids LOVED their swim lessons and are really becoming. I know kind...

That's Why I Love Them: Cruise Day 2 and 3 (Day at Sea)
http://thatswhyilovethem.blogspot.com/2014/03/cruise-day-2-and-3-day-at-sea.html
That's Why I Love Them. Tuesday, March 18, 2014. Cruise Day 2 and 3 (Day at Sea). So I guess we are cruise snobs, we splurged last time and went for a balcony and now we could never go back to not having a balcony. At any moment of any day you can have a view like this. For example here are the kids fresh out of bed, mismatched PJ's I am sure and no one has to know. You could be naked and none would know.not that I have tried that, well maybe. But seriously how cool right! And of course each night when w...

It was really fun, but I didn't get very many pictures. The girls loved coloring and doing clay outside. They all ate lots and lots of Popsicles. Down and go to s...

That's Why I Love Them. Sunday, March 31, 2013. Any ways the other day it was kind of fun. I got an email notification that he had taken and AR test. I knew he was just about to finish his forth book in the Harry Potter Series, so I was anxious to see if it was the one he tested on. Sure enough!

That's Why I Love Them. Saturday, February 25, 2012. Ok, this post has a lot of explaining to do. Heard of Pee Cheek Mountain? Well this is how it got it's name. At least the name we gave it. What are Pee Cheeks you ask? That was my question too. So one day, we were eating dinner when Elena, out of the blue asks me what Pee Cheeks are. I said, I have no idea I think it is just a nonsense word. She responded back to me as. Soooo here it goes.wait for it."Hey mom! High on Pee Cheek. Matt will be home on ti...

I remember watching my music and playing whenever the "F" note came along. The band teacher was a BIG lady and had very very jiggly arms. When she would lead.I just didn't want to be there anymore.one day she picked up my flute and. Played it.Yep.I was done. Coming from a highly musical family.my love for music was. But I blame ourselves.

That's Why I Love Them. Wednesday, September 19, 2012. Yes, we do seem to go to Legoland quite often. Our kids love it there and with the beach just a short ways from the hotel.how can you complain! And it is such a quick trip with Yuma (Matt has a building there, so it makes it nice to drive three hours, stay the night in Yuma and then a quick three more hours to Carlsbad) being a half way point. We would have to come back! And come back we did! Moments.Well, lets be honest, Ok I completely came-apa...
