I know its late but I wanted to post some pictures of Memorial Day!!!

So I love to dress the boys the with the same outfits and they don't mind. Anyways we were having fun on memorial day with our friends. They were loving the water balloons!!!
By the way Anne and I decided to be in a pie eating contest against four big guys. I know I was going to win but Anne really was about to beat the guys. She was so close but a the end she slowed down where on of the missionaries ended up winning and then two others caught up. She was so close to third place and she only had a bit left. I on the other hand was sitting next to Brad Butler and anybody who knows him you just can't stop laughing. I was eating the pie but at the same time was laughing and I couldn't swallow. I was doing my best and afterwards felt sick. I did not eat the rest of the day!!!






Well here are more pictures of our friends.


Ok so, my little man is sleeping in a big boy bed and it has been about 2 months. He loves his bed!! The boys always put things on and just be silly. Gabriel well lets just say he is a climber. Not on trees thank goodness but he just climbs on the counters and searches for food. He is my little squirrel!! He is so cute though. Here he is reading his book. He loves his dinosaur book!!
Now, Samuel is normally my good boy but as you can see in the picture that is sneaky. I told him to wash his hands and he took a while. I kind of figure its water there is nothing wrong with that. Well, little did I know he had open a vaseline bottle and puts some on his hair. Yea, but I didn't get mad at him because he already punish himself. It took a couple of days to come off!!

Some summer fun!!

Here are the boys enjoys really good sherbet ice cream on a hot day!!! Yummmy!! Here are the boys beating up
Grandpa!!

We went to downtown in Jonesborough for the 4th of July parade. The boys had fun!!


So they had some bounce houses in Jonesborough and this was one that was like the Gladiators. Poor Samuel the stick was to heavy for him and down he goes. But he did have fun!!

Here we are watching the fireworks!!! The boys were loving it. I just love their faces just seeing them look at it.


By the way I forgot to mention that we are owners to two little pups. We got them in March and their names are Sadie and Ben. They are good pups but there are times I could kill them. They are cute though!!!


Trip to NY!!

Ok, so I am really so in updating the blog but here we go!!! A few weeks ago I went to visit my family in NY. We drove 15 hours straight but we made it without killing the kids. We always have fun going to NY but the only thing I hate is that our vacation turns to trying to visit everyone before we have to leave. Its frustrating and tiring. I love seeing places and shopping!!!!! Boy, I am glad I don't live there because we would be broke. Also, its always nice to see different cultures again and eating the fooooood!!!!! That's another reason not to live there because I would be fat!!! I miss everyone and of course my family but there is a part of me that always tells me not to live there. I love the quitenes and not having my day pass by fast. I really enjoy living in TN. It so peacful for me here and no worries. I do love it up there and that will always be my home!! Well, we headed back on the 5th day and took back our nephew Miguel for the summer. We stopped over in Harrisonburg in VA for the night. It is really nice there and it was only four ours away from TN. The next day was the worst day. Those four hours felt forever!!! I seriouly lost my patience with the kids. I just wanted to get home. We finally made it and poor Michael had to work that night. Any who we hope that it would be fun having him here. Samuel loves his cousin and its kind of nice to have an older kid around to help out.

Well, here is my dad and the boys at his house. I love this picture with Gabriel because my dad has a little angel water fountain that pees. Well the boys always goes and play with the water. I just think it hilarous. So we made Gabriel take a pose as the angel.


We went out with my sisters and my friends and had fun with them!! We also got free desert because we told the waitress that Miguel and Samuel are having a birthday.It was ture in a few weeks!!!


I thought I could throw this picture in. My friend who I always go to cut my hair when I visit was now cutting my boys hair. This is Gabriel second time going to a salon and he does such a good job sitting there. Such a big boy!!


Here are my nephews. James is who will be turning 5 and Miguel who is turning 7. Here is also a picture of my niece Amaya who is 3. My Grandma and the boys!!



Here are some pictures of where we went to a children's museum. The kids had a blast. Plus we got in for free. It was worth it!!
Here is Samuel in a bubble and my sister attempting to be in one!



Here are my sisters. See if you can tell who is the oldest??
