Catch-Up

There has definitely not been a lot of quiet time around here lately.  We are doing well and loving how life has been going. In the first few months of the year we...

Found out about baby #3

Had so much fun (and loved all the help!) with my sister Mackenzie

And I was able to stop living out of my car when I finally finished Hair School!

Then, to top it all off, I passed my Cosmetology Licensing Exam and got a job at a salon that I love.  Phew!

Mix in Disneyland trips

Easter,

and it made for a fun couple of months!

Happy Holiday

We had a lot of fun on our trip to Arizona this Christmas. The boys were really glad to be back at my grandma's and running all over the place.

Happy Birthday, Nicholas!

Not so long ago, our guy turned five! I simply can't believe time has passed so quickly :)

Unlucky for him, I have been beyond busy, but lucky for him I pulled together a last-minute party with some fun friends.

The theme was a pajama pizza party, and the kids had tons of fun making their pizzas and being crazy together. Nicholas loved having his friends there to celebrate.

October Fun

Despite my blogging absence for the month of october, we had a great month.

We were very happy to be together for Halloween this year, especially considering last year Jared missed most all of the holiday and we were in a temporary living situation.  I am constantly grateful that we are here now and can be settled (at least for a little while).

Last year we didn't carve pumpkins, so we were happy to do that this year.  The boys loved it until they reached the gross "pumpkin guts", and Dad had to take over.

We were so happy to do Trunk-or-Treat at the church the weekend before the holiday, and hang out with some friends.

The boys were Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader (big surprise) and loved their costumes.  We went around a beautiful neighborhood with friends and loved their super creepy and awesome house.
