Jesse and I have our 7th Anniversary

Jesse and I went to New Braunfels for our 7th Anniversary this year. We had such a wonderful time. We went to Schillterbaun for 2 days and acted like big kids.It was SO fun to just simply have fun together. We went to a really great restraunt one night too. It was called Gristmill and was right off the river. We even went to see some caverns before we headed back home. This was by far our best Anniversary yet.

Hailey turns 1 and starts to walk.

Hailey turned 1 on September 4th. This year has gone by so fast! I can't believe my BABY is 1! She also decided to start walking around this time. She is now able to get into even more stuff because of this, but it's SO cute. She is such a wonderful charming little baby.Thank you all who bought her presents and helped to celebrate my little girl's first big day.

Cade turns 4!

Cade turned 4 on August 4th and we had a great time with him. Jesse took the day off and we went to Main Event. We played lots of games and Mommy even won tickets to spend! Then the next day we had a playgroup birthday and Cade had a wonderful time. We have such great friends! Then on Saturday we celebrated once more with family so Cade was spoiled to pieces, but in a good way. we love you big boy!

School!

So we offically started school. Genicey started last week and Cade started today. I was so proud of my kiddos. I also realzied how busy and hetic and wonderful summer was. I barely blogged at all. I even forgot to blog about our trip to California! How could I not blog about that? I may go add some random pictures and just call it summer later. Well anyway, we are ready for a new year and mommy's main goal is to get more orgainzed! Wish me luck, it's not natural for me at all.

Circus

We went to the circus with my Moms Club today. Genicey and Cade got juggled around during the preshow! Here is the video.

Branson

So I seem to be terrible about blogging during the summer. We are too busy traveling, swimming, playing etc to give me much time to write a formal blog. That being said I love summer. I love spending all that time with my children. They are growing so fast and I don't want to miss anything. We went to Branson last week. When I say we I mean the kids and I went along with Papa Jack and Nana. We had a wonderful time. The kids loved the pool, the weather was BEAUTIFUL, the mountains are lovely. My mom's friend was also there with her family including their darling sweet child Emily Grace. She was like a big sister to my children all week. They ate her up! Here are a few highlights from our trip.( wish I could add more)

The Nippers

The Nippers came to visit us on June 12th and 13th. We always have a blast when they come around and this time was fun too of course. We played this triva game called Buzz that I was simply terrible at, but it was fun anyway. Then on Saturday we went to Hurricane Harbor to celebrate Robert's and my Birthdays. I go every year unless I have been pregnant and I turn into a big kid. We had a really fun time and I think I sufficently wore everyone elses out. We are so greatful that they came to visit. We love you Trish and Robert.

Becky's Wedding and the Schuering BBQ

June 5th we went to Tulsa for a wonderful friend's wedding.CONGRATS Becky! It was really nice to see her and you could tell she was completely in love. Then June 6th we went to my Grandma's for a BBQ. My cousin Matt has this HUGE grill and really knows how to make some good food so the turn out is usually good. We had a really nice time visiting with everyone. Before we knew it, we had to head back as we had left our little ones at Jesse's mommas house. We had a wonderful couple of days.

Wow I am way behind!Where to start?

Well since most of my pictures from our family trip to California are on my laptop. I guess Ill blog about everything else and then blog about the trip later. Yes I know this messes up the order but it all happened in June so that's all that matters. Anyway lets see...I had a busy birthday as we were traveling back from California so I celebrated my birthday in shifts. On June 21st we did a birthday slash Father's day thing at my moms. She made a wonderful lunch and Hailey liked it so much she fell asleep while eating. (see video) We had a nice time just hanging out and I think everyone was really happy with their gifts. We got Papa Jack a new osu watch and we got Jesse a personalized beer Stein and some BBQ stuff. Then last week I met with some great gals and we went to dinner at Houlihans to celebrate and simply to have a night out. I had a great time, but that waiter was shady! Thanks so much to all of you that came.

Buddy Day

Yesterday was "Buddy Day" at Genicey's school. This is a day when the kids get to play all sorts of games. Sharry took off work, so I was able to go and volunteer. I had a great and exhausting time working at the Twister Slide. All the little kids were so excited and for the most part VERY good. We were constantly busy, except the few minutes were everone had to bring the events in doors when it started raining. Genicey was so cute and excited that I was there. This of course made my day in itself. I will be so sad when she isnt excited to see me anymore! PS. The other slide was like a rock climbing slide, I tried it when we were waiting for the kids and it was a blast!
