BOOYAY we Love Uncle MALC

Ever since TJ and I got married I have wanted someone in my family to live closer to me. FINALLY it has happened!! Malco is going to Snow YAY!! We love to have him come up to our house and eat dinner with us. He has only been up to visit 3 times but we love it!! Madi and Jace go crazy when he comes, they jump all over the place and scream and laugh and get so wild! It has been fun to have him!!

I actually got him to smile while I was taking a picture!! I won't write what I had to say to get him to smile but trust me it was funny!!

My kids love him so much, he may not admit to it but he even lets them kiss him when he leaves and he says he loves them!! What a great uncle!!


Madi and Jace not daring to get to close, his hearing aids kept buzzing and they weren't quite sure!!

Malco pretending to be annoyed that he is at our house but he loves it!!

We LOVE you MALCO thanks for coming to visit!! We love to have you!!

Here is a random picture of TJ with the kids!! I don't know how it got on this post but it sure is cute!! I have a wonderful family!! Crazy as they are!!

Fun In Sunny St. George

The kids and I every year spend a week with Auntie Jill in St. George!! We love to go down and just relax and spend a fun week with her and Willie, Jax and Ryker!! The week went way to fast but it was a TON of fun!! I actually remembered my camera this time but I didn't remember to get any pictures except one day so here they are!!

One afternoon Jill and I decided to just let the kids play outside in the water. She set up her pool and the slip and slide and the kids had a BLAST!! Even Jace, Mr. anti-swim got in on the fun!!

All the kids in the pool!! Ryker would run and dive in!! It was so funny to watch!!
Madi trying to be just like him and dive in!!

Playing on the slip and slide....


Ryker and Jace had it out for each other the whole week but they seemed to play well together when the pool was out!! They usually get along but for some reason they were always fighting and trying to hurt each other!!

Thanks Jill and Willie for putting up with us for the week we always have a TON of fun!!

We love you guys!!

Dancing girl already!!

Here is Madi on her 1st day of DANCE CLASS!! Already!! Summer went by way to quickly and we are trying to get ourselves back into a routine so we can get out of bed before 9 a.m.!! Madi is so excited to start dance again so hopefully she will have another good year!!

Here are just some random pictures throughout the summer. Jace playing outside in his swim suit!! He loves to wear it but he is still unsure of the water but he is making progress!!

Jace in his new church clothes from Grandma Brotherson. He looks so handsome and very grown up!!

Here is Madi and me. Madi is also wearing a new church dress from her grandma! She loves getting new dresses from Grandma so we always have to get her picture!!

Jace thinks it is funny to put everything on his head. These are his shorts that he put on when he was sitting on the toilet!! He is one goofy kid! We love him for it. He is always saying and doing funny things!! (when he is not crying anyway!!)


Finally here is Madi and Jace posing in their ChuckECheese glasses!! What crazy kids!!

Look Who is 4!!

On June 31 Madison celebrated her 4th Birthday!! She was so excited to be 4!! She insisted on having a friend party and I gave in....It was a lot of work but definitely worth it. Moo wanted a princess party and insisted on having a Sleeping Beauty crown!! Madi loves to be the center of attention!!

Here she is opening some of her presents....

Eating cupcakes and ice cream....


Opening more presents....
Here is Paige and Keenon. Keenon is Madi's boyfriend, they have even planned out their wedding, just ask either one of them about it, It is very funny!!


All Madi wanted for her birthday was a Barbie and lots of clothes. So here she is with her new Barbie......

Some more Princess shoes since she has broken most of her old ones.....

Here she is eating some of the frosting that we used to frost her cupcakes!!

TJ and I are so blessed to have Madison in our family. She is a strong willed girl that doesn't give into anything she doesn't want. She is definitely a challenge but we love her just the way she is!!

Happy Birthday Madison!!
