Air show

Every other year at Lukes Airforce Base they put on a air show for the public for free. We had such a good time at it the last time we went that we really wanted to go to it this year. It was a pretty windy day and a lot of dust was blowing but we still had a good time!

Madi is playing Softball

This year we signed Madi up to play on an all girls softball team, she is a Tarheel! So far she really likes it and gets along great with the other girls. She is catching on to all of the rules and is learning all the different positions there are to play. She really likes to hit, that is probably her favorite thing to do. I told her that she will probably be better then me when she gets older because she started a year before I did, she liked what she heard! We just have so much fun watching her play, way to go Madi!

Happy Birthday Janelle!

Aunt CJ came into town to celebrate her granddaughters birthday, Janelle is 2! They came over to our house on Saturday to have a BBQ and open presents. Janelle is so cute, she really likes to open presents! The kids just love having her around, its like having a little sister. We are so grateful that Kristen and Janelle live by us, we love having them around!

Girls Trip

What a fun weekend we had! Laura and I went up to visit Lauri in Colorado the first weekend in March. We had a blast hanging out, no kids and no hubby's! Friday night we went out to dinner and to a Comedy show, we had some good laughs, although I probably won't go and see that Comedian ever again, he was a little bit to much for me:). Saturday morning we layed around and watched a movie, I never get to do that! We finally got dressed and ready for the day around 2pm, we went to Lauri's friends Bakery, and got a free cookie, after getting our cookie we drove into Downtown and went to 16th street, lots of shopping but we didn't do that we went out to dinner instead! None of us really didn't want to go do anything so Lauri drove around and we went into some really nice neighborhoods with huge houses. We rented some movies and had some junk food and stayed up until 3am, I guess us girls like to talk alot:) Sunday morning we went out to Red rocks and went on a hike, very pretty. We had a great weekend and I can't wait until the next one! Thanks girls!

Ragnar race!

The Ragnar race was awesome, I want to do it again next year! It was such a blast, to run, hang with friends and achieve the goals you set for yourself! For those of you who have never heard of the ragnar race, it is a relay race in which you have 12 people on your team and you run in 3 different legs. I was runner 4 and in my first leg I ran 5 miles, my second leg was 4.7 miles and my third leg was 3.5 miles= total of 13.2 miles! I did great in my first 2 legs, by the time the third one came around my legs felt like concrete and I had a difficult time breathing. It was fun to see Curt and the kids come up to support us in the race, they even made a sign, very cute! We finished Sat. night around 6pm, and got home around 8pm. I crashed, went to bed early and woke up Sunday morning and I could hardly get out of bed! I couldn't walk down the stairs like a normal person, I had to walk sideways because the front of my legs hurt so bad! I was coughing up some pretty narley stuff and Icouldn't seem to catch my breath. Well, I decided to go see the doctor, and she told me that I have bronchitis, so that explains why I was having a hard time breathing! I probably got sick from pushing myself during the race but it was worth it! I had so much fun and look forward for the next Ragnar! Go J.A.M.!

Gussy is in town!

Aunt Gussy came to visit last week and to check out Arizona to see if this might be a place that she would like to live. We had her down for Sunday dinner and we introduced her to the Wii, she did pretty good at bowling! Gussy and I went out to lunch on Monday, it was a great time to have girl talk without any kids. We also went out to dinner with her on Wed., the kids sure had fun hanging out with Gussy. Thanks for visiting!

Happy Birthday Madi!

We decided that Madi could have a few friends over to spend the night for a little birthday party. They all had a blast, girls can be so silly at their ages! They all got to make their own personalized pizza and we also had cupcakes. I taught them the game "truth or dare", which they all pretty much chose the truth. Max really got into this game and he picked dare so I dared him to suck on his toe and he did, what a champ! They played with thier dolls most of the night and had a fashion show with them. I am so grateful that Madi has such sweet friends, and it was a great birthday party!
