vacation

I must say, this was the best vacation I have been on! We were on the go non stop! While we were on the boat, we participated in a murder mystery dinner, had fun rolling in the chips at the casino, went to a few shows and were even picked to be on a couples game show! We had to do a bunch of seductively played games, and we would have won, but there is just something so hilarious about an elderly couple pole dancing! We didn't stand a chance! We had to settle for second place. Our first stop was in Honduras. We went hiking through the jungle and stopped at a monkey refuge where the monkeys were more then willing to jump in your arms! It was so much fun! Afterwards we hung out at the beach and had the most amazing chicken i have ever had in my life! The next stop was Belize. Here, we went hiking through the jungle and went cave tubing. This was amazing! It was so beautiful and peaceful. The last place we stopped was Mexico. we took a bus to the ruins and explored there for the day. Even though I was having such a great time, I couldn't help but think about my kids. I was definately ready to come home!

Averie Jane was blessed on Saturday at my parent's home. She looked so cute, and wouldn't you know, she was even awake for part of it! My dad gave her such a wonderful blessing. I am so grateful for him and the amazing father that he is!

I had to throw this in because I thought it was such a great picture of my grandpa!

After we got home, I thought I would try and have a little photo shoot to remember how cute she looked on her special day. I only got in a few pictures before she fell asleep!

AAHH!! True Averie fashion!!

he's on the move!!

Zaiah recently discovered that he can get from one place to another even if his arms are still too weak to crawl. He uses his head instead! It is hilarious! Although his forehead is usually bright red from carpet burn, it definitely does the trick. I am so proud of him!

he hears his sister in the bathroom and...

he's on the move!!

Princess' on Ice

I took Kenna to Princess' on Ice Saturday night and she had such a great time! She couldn't wait for it to start. When the lights finally turned off she stood up and never sat down for the rest of the show! All the little girls freaked out when their favorite princess' came out, but my little girl lit up when the princes came out! She has a little crush on Prince Eric!

don't you love how mesmerized she looks

little ballerina

Kennedie started dance class last week, and she LOVES it! She does ballet, tap, and tumbling. As soon as she got home she had to show me everything she learned! I must say, she is quite the little dancer!
