5 years and still going strong

It was our 5 year anniversary on friday. Jon surprised me by arrranging with my parents to watch the kids for the night and we went to stay in a hotel. Saturday we spent the day at 6 flags. It was so AWESOME...... i love roller coasters. Thanks to a wonderful husband for a great weekend and to amazing parents for watching the kids.

First day of Florida

So we went to Tampa to see Joe and Lara........Joe is Jon's best friend from college. We arrived on Thursday late afternoon. Joe picked us up at the airport and Lara cooked a delicious meal of ribs and potatoes. We spent the night visiting and letting Brooke run around with Kevin and Jason, and the dogs. On friday we ventured off to the aquarium.

Mya loving life in her little shell!

Brooke wanted to sit on the mermaid. She walked by the mermaid and turned around and said, "Sit, sit."

Mya saying hello to her new friend the turtle.

Aunt Whit-E and Uncle Ty

Whitney and Tyler came home last monday for a week. Brooke was very excited to see whit and ty. It was cute to see how excited she was to be with them.

Whit, Ty, and I made a trip into the city to go to china town on Weds. Jon came home from work early and watched the girls. I drove us into the city, we parked on the street and we were off to find hand bags. Whitney got 3 bags. Ty and I were just along for the ride. It was a fun adventure and now that I know where I am going, the next trip in will go alot smoother.

up high

So i thought that I would show everyone Brooke's favorite activity. It is called "up high". As soon as Jon walks in the door she wants to be thrown in the air.

Happy Easter

We had a good Easter sunday. The girls looked cute in their Easter outifts, thanks to Grandma B. Jon and I both had to teach today. Jon's lesson went well, however mine not so well. The YW had the same lesson for sunday school, so that was disappointing. But thankfully at the end of the lesson Ryan came in and saved the day by singing one of my favorites "His Hands". I think that it really helped the YW to remember why we celebrate Easter in remebrance of Christ.

Saturday Fun

On saturday we took Brooke to Abmas farm. Well.......... I sat in the car and Jon took Brooke to feed the animals. It was really raining hard, but Brooke wanted to feed them. So daddy was so nice to stand in the rain and feed the animals with her

After feeding the animals we dyed East eggs. Brooke loved to dye the eggs. She was so proud of her eggs. What fun!!!!

Entering the blogging world

Well since I like to read other peoples blogs...............I thought that maybe I should start a blog. So here it goes. We have not been up to much lately, just waiting for the weather to stay nice. Every morning Brooke asks for her "da-da" and then asks to eat. after we finish her "oum" ,which is oatmeal, she the asks to go the park to play on the choo- choo. Here are a few pictures of the girls at the park the other day.
