Annual Sock Hop Fundraiser @ Trent's School

Alicia (a friend from class) & Trent Hula Hoopin'

Reagan, Trent & Alicia - Hula Hoopin' to 50s music!

There were games & prizes too!

Peyton got to help Mrs. Head (Trent's teacher) with BINGO!!

Trent lost his 1st tooth!!!

Trent lost his 1st tooth!! It had been somewhat loose for a few weeks and he was really anxious for it to fall out to be able to put it under his pillow for the Tooth Fairy. I told him to eat an apple and that would 'exercise' the tooth to get it good and loose. As he ate that apple, it really began to loosen! He was sooo excited!!! So I reached in and pulled it out -- easy peezy! If you haven't rec'd your call from Trent regarding this great moment in his life.....don't worry, YOU WILL!!!! He would yell it from the mountain tops if he could!!!

In honor of the Beijing Olypics 2008.......

I present to you, our true China Doll!!! I just found this outfit in a box of old stuff. I intended to dress Trent up in it after he was born, but forgot all about it. I bought it in Beijing in 2001.

The whole outfit fit perfectly!

Such an innocent look - don't let it fool ya! She's a rascal!

Trent's 1st Day of Kindergarten

Hugs goodbye from Peyton!

Grinning from ear to ear with his favorite person & teacher,
Mrs. Head. She just adores him too!

Welcome to school, buddy! Of course, your
sister needs to be in every picture, but you
understand!

I love my NEW car seat cover, Momma!

It was time to get a new car seat cover for Peyton's car seat! So I went to Hancock Fabrics, picked out this ADORABLE material (on a super, duper sale stack) and had a woman on Ebay sew it for me!!! She didn't want to get out of it tonight! She sat in it watching Spongebob and smiling so big!!!

Meet our friends......The Legate Family!

This is Caitlin. She is very petite and cute!
She is such a sweet girl. Trentie loved this
little pumpkin too!

This is Cody. Shy but very, very adorable.
Smiley, happy boy - we so enjoyed playing
with you today! It was so nice to see you and Peyton
play together.

This is Cameron. He is such a great, big brother to Cody
and Caitlin. He has beautiful eyes and a smile to match it!
He and Trent had a blast playing in the water today. Trent
really didn't want to leave, but we hope it won't be long before
they see each other again.

This is Amy. Yep, I got you in the pic too, Amy!
She is the Mommy to these 3 adorable kids! (and
what an amazing Mom she is too!) Thank you so
much for the invitation today, Amy. We had such a
blast with all of you! Tell Kris - good job on the move there!
You are in for years of FUN in that community!

SPLASH PARK in Sahuarita! FUN!!!!!

Thanks to our friend's, the Legate's, we got to go to this
awesome Splash Park today out in Sahuarita.

But before you get to the awesome Splash Park, you pass this
amazingly, beautiful lake.

Once you're inside the Splash Park gate, that is where all
of the FUN begins!!!

Megan Elizabeth - Born 5/29/08

Isn't Megan precious? Now if she would only sleep thru the
night for her mommy, Kari........sweet dreams little one!

Peyton & Trent loving Baby Megan!

Trent was thrilled to hold Megan! He kept asking me
to hold the baby the whole time we were visiting and
gave her lots of kisses too!

Now it was Peyton's turn to hold the baby! Mommy-in-training
was very happy to meet Megan and loved her very much!

Happy 2nd Birthday, Zachary!

My kids really love their friend, Zachary! (Trentie
has called him his 'little brother' since he was born). Zachary turned
"2" on June 16th and we went to his house to give him hugs, gifts,
and love. (and to see his new adorable baby sister too!!!)
We love you, SWEET BOY!

My latest project! A Baby Bouquet!

Thanks to Martha Stewart, I have now embarked on a new baby project!
Baby Bouquets! This is a FUN and UNIQUE way to bring flowers to the new
Mommy at the hospital or to give as a gift at a baby shower! You use onesies,
bibs, socks, t-shirts, and hats! This is what I have done so far. Let me know what you think.
But go easy....this is my 1st RODEO!!

Playing @ The Children's Museum!

Frankie, Peyton & Trentie playing with FLOAM! FUN!

Here's your healthy food, Mom. Can I get you anything else?

Peyton, Trentie & Frankie busy cooking in the kitchen!

Trent is telling Frankie that he just got an order for 100 Krabby Patties! YIKES!

E.T. Phone Home!

Last Friday night, May 16th, E.T. came on TV and we all watched it as a family. The kids set up camp and we were ready to go. Scott and I even enjoyed it again too! Trent thought it was hysterical when Gerdie dressed him up like a girl and then they took him trick-or-treating as a ghost! I personally like the part when E.T. gets drunk on beer from the fridge! This was a great movie night!

McDonalds for lunch with Chloe & Andrew!

After we went to the Mini Horse Ranch in Picture Rocks, we went to lunch at McDonalds!! Little Andrew loves 'hamming' it up for the camera and never misses a photo op!! Chloe is 3 1/2 and Andrew is almost 2! They're Peyton's good buddies! Thanks for sharing the day with us, guys!

Miniature Horses @ Picture Rocks

Peyton loves horses!

Chloe & Peyton are giving love to the horses!

Andrew & Chloe are petting the white horse with blue eyes!
