Rock On

We had the ultimate girls night out last night. The seven of us went to rock out at a Bon Jovi concert. We had so much fun. It was an amazing concert and Daughtry opened which was a bonus. Now don't make fun...you know you love Bon Jovi songs..(living on a prayer, bad medicine, shot through the heart..just to name a few)Holly, Jen, Me, Michelle, Stephanie, Kristen, Melanie

Jake's Birthday (2 yrs old)

Jake's birthday was easter weekend so I am a little late posting these. We had a great time. We had a little last minute birthday party at our friends house. They have a bouncy castle so Jake was in heaven. We also did a little easter egg hunt along with a BBQ.

I would love to take credit that I made this cake, but I didn't. My friend Melody Odell did it. Isn't it so cute.

Happy Easter

Today we had a little Easter Egg Hunt for the kids. It was really a lot of fun. As soon as Jake discovered that there was candy in the eggs he could really care less if he found any more. He just wanted to sit down and eat his candy. We even got all the kids to sit still while we took a little photo shoot of all the kids. I am really lucky to have so many good friends with kids around Jake's age. It makes all these activities so much fun. (Notice the blue around Jake's mouth..Robin eggs were a hit)

Cade

I felt like I didn't have many pictures of Caden on my blog. He is getting to such a fun stage. He is babbling alot, rolling over, and giving us tons of smiles. It is nice because Jake is finally starting to interact with him. He will "shove" his binkie in when he is crying, tickle him to make him laugh, and pat is big belly. Yesterday when Caden was crying Jake went up to him pointing his finger to his face and shaking it yelling at him "NO, NO, NO"....I guess maybe we are telling Jake NO a little too much lately.

Summer in February

Today we had the best weather so we decided to take the boys down to the beach. It always feels weird when you are lathering up the suncreen and breaking out the shorts and flip flops in february. I guess that is why we love Southern Cali.

Feeding the Ducks

Jake is a carb guy and has a hard time sharing his bread with the duck. When we go to feed them he ends up eating half of it.

SeaWorld

Earlier this month several families from our ward went down to Seaworld. I took the boys and we had tons of fun. It is always an adventure when I take the two of them by myself, but we survived. Jake loved seeing all the animals. His favorite was getting to hold the starfish
