Happy 16th Birthday Preston!

I can't believe how fast the time has gone! It seems like just yesterday...

He was my sweet baby boyPreston's favorite pastime at a year... looking at Papa's fish!

Happy 16th to the sweetest boy I know!

Happy mother's day!

I love being a mom! I have awesome kids! Preston made this menu for me, and brought it to me when I woke up on mother's day...

How cute is he! He had me "order" and then he and Rachel went down and cooked me breakfast in bed. I ordered the monte cristo and it was delicious!

I love being his mama...

I love being her mama...

And I love this "mama" that taught all of these other "mamas" how to be "mamas"!
I love you mom! Happy mother's day!!

Did you know....

...that Preston is super creative and artistic? He made this really cool tree (check out the roots between the glass!) out of hot glue!! Seriously!! I think artistic people are SO COOL!

Did you know....

....that Rachel likes to fix hair? Not only her own, but anyone else who will sit still! This gorgeous head of hair belongs to her friend Abbi. She came over to play and Rachel fixed her hair like this all by herself! I was pretty impressed. I don't know many 6 year old's that can come up with (check out the zig zag part!) and execute such a cute do! She takes after her Aunties:)

Update on Rhea- Rhea

I wanted to post a quick update on Rhea-Lynn. She is right in the middle of treatment where she goes 5 days a week for focal radiation. They are hoping to shrink/ stop the tumors growth. She started loosing her hair in big clumps so she cut it super short (which is really cute) and also got this gorgeous wig! Can you say super model?! Our amazing daddy takes her to most of her radiation treatments. Rhea-Lynn was feeling very sad and out of control when her hair started to fall out and my dad was comforting her by telling her hair doesn't make you beautiful, it what is on the inside that counts. He said when he got home later, he felt like the words didn't have much meaning so he decided to shave his head too. How awesome is our daddy! I don't know about you, but I think he is a super fox with a shaved head!

Please continue to pray for our sweet Rhea Rhea. She can feel them!

Happy Birthday!

Happy birthday to my best friend, who happens to be my sister, who I just happen to get to share (almost) MY birthday with! I love you Jenny!

Happy Easter!

This year we had an Easter "Season"! Jeff had to travel over actual Easter, so we spread ours out a little. Did you know that the Easter Bunny is really flexible? We kept our kids home on Friday morning because the Bunny came to our house Thursday night! They were both super excited to get to go to school late:)Easter Baskets
Hunting for jelly-beans!


Preston is obsessed with putting holiday accessories on his head! Here he is with Rachel's bunny ears.

On Saturday, we spent the afternoon with Nana and Pop Pop at a farm! This is usually the pumpkin patch in the fall, but they opened it up for Easter this year.

(Preston and Dad are at a wrestling tournament. Preston took first!)

Rachel hunting for eggs


I would say she got a few:)

I think holding this sweet bunny was her favorite thing...

but feeding and petting this baby goat was a close second!

She LOVES animals!

By the way, don't you love the hot pink lei? Gotta love a little girl with her own sense of fashion!

Happy Easter!
