Let's get the summer started!

I have been so eager to begin the summer, that I didn't realize that we had so much going on before we really officaly started out summer. We have had a wedding, graduation, prom, and a end of year fishing trip. Since I haven't posted in a while, I have quite a few pics to share.
We can start with Prom. This is a picture I took with two of my softball Players, Junior Morgan (in the red) and Senior Jamie (In the black). I have many fun stories involving these two. They are very good girls and I am going to miss Jamie terribly next year.

This picture is more proof then needed that Alex is Fishooks son. He loved fishing. His class took this trip and they all got to fish. Between all 20 of them they caught about 5 fish. It was worth it. We didn't catch any fish, but the worms were great!
This is Heather (my babysitter and quickly becoming one of my best friends) and one of the twins Jordan and the fish that he caught. I don't know if you can tell, but this completely made his day, and this was the first of many things we did on that day. I was so proud of him.
This is a pic with Alex, Jeramy, Jordan, and Trinity. They look so cute. This is one of my favorite pictures.
This wedding was a long time Coming... Sarah and Dustin finally got married after 9 years of dating. They have been together longer then Nathan and I. IT was a great weekend and we love them both.Alex, Jeramy, and Jordan have all become really good friends. Which really works out well with Heather and I because we like spending time together. We went and got them all the same clothes at Old Navy because that is the best store and we wanted them to match. As a result, they looked fabulous! They are all good kids.
This is Alex at graduation. I have never been more proud! He told his teacher he wanted to be a blue power ranger when he grew up. I had bet he would say race car driver just like my dad. But that is why we keep kids around, so they can surprise us!

Jeramy is the one in red. Red is his favorite Color and he looked so cute in it.
Jordan wore the green and he wants to be a Durant Cop when he gets older...
This is a picture of the cake. It turned out so cute. I don't know if you can see it in this picture, but the blue crayon that is closest to the camera has Alexander written on it. Brenda Brashier really did a fab job!
Most of the year Alex has had a prob with kissin on the girls. This is the girl he has had trouble not kissin! Who can blame him, she is such a cutie. This is Mary Elizabeth Fisher, daughter of Mary Helen and Jon Fisher. She is absolutely the cutest!

Over the course of the next week, I will continue to have a ton of things going on. I will do my best to post when possible!

And the fun never stops!

This year was by far the craziest Easter we have yet to experience. We had egg hunt after egg hunt and now I am left with bowls and bowls of candy left over because we don't eat much sweets at my house. We had plenty of time for pictures and I never really put the camera down. We are going to start with Easter at Grandma's. Everyone showed up except my sister and two oldest cousins. We even had an extra. Brett showed up, but he is really considered one of the family members so at the same time we didn't have an extra.

If you look deep into her eyes, she is really saying, "Yes, I know I am cute but please let me take a nap!"
I am not sure what she was staring at but she sure was preoccupied with whatever it was!



Nathan and I took some time for a few poses since we were all dressed up and all and since we haven't done that in years...


Here is a picture of all of us 'young' hunters... hehe




She was tired of hunting so now it was time for her to go in the house and eat all her candy! Or atleast, she thought so.

She is looking at me like, "I told you so!"

Uncle Tim was showing Alex how he could 'magically' take off the tip of his finger and put it back on again. He wasn't really sure about it, but he sure did try to figure it out!



She is looking too cute in her dress!


Here are both of my babies. It is so hard for me to get them both to look at the camera at the exact same time. But I finally got one!




He was so ready to hunt eggs, especially when he found out the eggs had money in them!

Yes, he thinks he is ready for this. NO, I know he is no where close! He sure tried though!

This is one of my favorite Pics from the weekend. She found an egg and had to get on her tippy toes to reach it. Absolutely the cutest.






Alex loved this little bird. I don't know what the infatuation with it was, but he loved playing with it!








Papa has a few fish ponds at his house and something that became a quick favorite of both of my kids was feeding the fish.



Shaggy, which is the goldish fish, is the first one to come and eat out of Alexanders hand.



Then quickly behind Shaggy is Mary, the white with orange and black.






Something that I continue to find out is that my camera is attracted to my little girl. It doesn't matter what I am trying to take a picture of, she is always right there, which makes it that much sweeter!



It was great for Alex to have someone to hunt eggs with that was his age. He had so much fun hunting eggs with Kayla.
This Easter was very special to me and we all had a great time remembering what Easter really is about. God Bless!

A week of surprises!

If i had to pick a picture to describe what exactly has happened this week, the picture above would describe it in so many words. This week has been full of every emotion you can think of. But one word that stands out to me it, CHAOS! We have had five kids and two adults taking care of them. I just don't see how anyone could do this to themselves. It has been fun but exhausting. Crazy but worth it! I have posted a few pics from different moments in the week.

She loves this ole horse! I think all of us grandkids and great grand kids have too!
Grandpa is having it out with little Silas!
Some of us just played too hard.
It was obvious that Jayden doesn't get to play with rocks that much, where Caedis was like, o yeah we have a ton of those where I am from!
We felt that since all the grand kids wouldn't be together for easter that it was mandatory for us to have an egg hunt!
Look at all the eggs she found ( This was while the other kids were out trying to find the one egg that was left!)

Looks like the Easter Egg Hunt paid off for someone!
We decided that the kids have been pretty good all week so we took them to McDonalds. W


We decided that we had so much fun at McDonalds, that we would head on over to Chuck E Cheeses. Apparently everyone else had the idea that sitting and watching your children play was a fantastic idea, seeing how everyone around here is on spring break! Yes ok and tx is!!!
Some of weren't having as much fun as the others... You see, the babies have to lay down for a nap at one or else they get cranky which makes me cranky... She was tired and the mouse kept pestering her!

Alex and Silas were having so much fun playing on the games that they would stick coins in until the games started and play for a few seconds and leave. Most of the time they would leave while the game was still going on and usually they left the tickets too! If you see us at Chuck E Cheeses, be sure to follow us around!


Silas was rather taken by Uncle Nathans race car! He was so excited to get in it, but not only did he get to sit in it, he got to start it and rev it up! I don't know if you can see the excitement on his face but you could tell, he was so happy!
