The "Dirt Jumps"

The boys love me taking them to an open property near us that has dirt jumps. They love taking their bikes their to do the jumps. The group shot of the boys is of Caden, Davin and Slater and their favorite buddies Matt and Blake. This one day we went Erin was actuually able to go with us. He is always the best participant. He always makes it fun for the boys, even Slater. Slater loves it when Daddy attempts to ride his bike. The older boys were able to wonder throught the trails and do the jumps, while Erin, Slater, Timeri and I went on our own adventure looking for bugs. We always seem to have a great time doing the most simple things.

Our swimming pool

 

 

Slater and Timeri at it again. I looked in the backyard to find them being creative at finding a way to make a swimming pool. Slater is so silly ! Timeri is a bundle of love as well ! Love them !!

Our bearded dragons

 

 

The boys fianlly got what they have always wanted... bearded dragons. Caden wanted it for his birthday and of course Davin lucked out getting one too for his half birthday.

Grant's park

On another get away to my dad's we traveled up to Ventura Harbor. My mom loved it there. First, we went to the beach with the kids, then we picked up linch and went to Grant's Park. It is a park hidden on top of the Ventura hills. When at the park you have a 180* view of the Ventura coast line. In the middle of the park stands a huge wooden cross. It has been standing there since the late 1800's, when the original Mexican missionaries had built missions in California. It is a little weathered, but it stands strong declaring its truth. It was beautiful ! The view made it even better.

First day of school for Timeri and Slater

Here is the first day of school for my two youngest loves. They were so excited to start school. They are attending Miss Peggy's Preschool in Murrieta. Slater couldn't wait. He wanted to bring his new backpack with him. It was praticaly the same size of him. After dropping them off, I was so excited to actually be kidless for a few hours. But, after a little bit... I started to miss them, and got sad that all my babies were in school. I have so much to be thankful for... I am so fortuante and blessed that I have four children and that they are healthy... and that they all like school.

Our beautiful baby boy is all grown up.

Our beautiful princess !

Caden's 8th birthday

 

 

Here is Caden on his 8th birthday. Can't believe my little baby is already 8. Where did the time go? It seems like yesterday we just had him. I remember driving to the hospital with Erin at 5 am. And then the first time holding him in my arms, just crying. Caden is a good boy and a great help to me. I love him so much !
