What's Happin'

So I finally have a free moment to do a little blogging. We have been so busy with the house and trying to get moved in and everything the way we want it. We had a few set backs which prevented us from moving in sooner, but we are officially able to move in (YEAH)! So between working on the house and Softball games it has been crazy. Also, to add to everything else the accident that I was in in February has caused me a lot of problems. I have had severe neck pains and headaches. I have been going to a chiropractor, and at the end of June I got really bad, and my body would go numb down my arms, face, and chest. They did an MRI and found that I had a protruding disk in the back of my neck, and so I now have included two days to physical therapy to the two times a week that I go to the chiropractor. I am finally where I am getting back to my normal activities, but I still can't over do it. So to top that all my camera broke, and I had to send it off for three weeks to get fixed :( The flash just stopped working. OK on to the HAPPY MOMENTS!

FOURTH OF JULY

So our week started out with Tyler playing in the Perry Softball Tournament! We had games every night except Thursday, and we even had two on Tuesday, because he plays for the Brigham city men's league. They won two and lost two, and didn't get to go to the championship game, but they had fun, and they are still doing GREAT in the men's league, but here are a few pictures from the Perry league team. Tyler has had a lot of fun playing softball, and we have had a BLAST watching him. Hopefully next summer we will be able to play coed softball






















Playing with the Johnson Family and Friends!






Durrant, Shelby, Kayden and Xander sharing a slushy at the ball game while cheering for the team!








Papa and Landen sharing
a slushy at the game!



LATER THAT DAY
The family and Brian and Janni and their kids all came up and we had a BBQ, and then we did some fireworks and sparklers. The kids had so much fun! Thanks to Dee and Gene for all the yummy food! I also Tried a new recipe and made a Raspberry Cheesecake. It turned out AWESOME I will try to remember to post it on here when I get a chance!





THAT NIGHT
We sat up at Nana and Papa's house and watched the fireworks rather than going down to the park! It was very relaxing and the boys had a BLAST! Here are some pictures

Soccer

Kayden started AYSO soccer a couple weeks ago, and has been excitied to play, and lots of fun to watch. Kayden's love for soccer came at a young age when he would watch his Uncle Chance play soccer on many occassions. Here are some pictures at his Uncle's game, and when he got his first soccer ball. He also loved trying on Chance's shin guards.


THEN...



NOW...


These are pictures from his first two games. When we went to his second game he had told us that he was going to score, and that is just what he did. We were so excitied for him. Here is the video of him scoring his first goal. You may want to turn down the volume there is a lot of yelling! :)

Soapy Mud















BATHTUB FUN
As I was going through some things we found this soap that looks like mud. So we decided to take a bath and play. Xander wanted nothing to do with it, and the moment it hit the water he wanted OUT NOW! So I got him out and dressed and he watched from a safe distance. Landen was curious, but not enough to touch it. We put a little on him, and he wanted it washed off right away, but I managed to get a couple of pictures. Towards the end he would put a little on his hand and then wash it off right away. Kayden loved the stuff he would have sat there all day playing with it! It was a great way to pass the time. Just when we get excitied that it is warming up the next day it snow....ahhhh I just want SPRING!



Our New House!

Well, we are closing on the 8Th of April, and we will be the proud owners of a house (Again)! Here is a video of just the up stairs. The down is nothing special right now, but when we move in I will video the down stairs.This house is going to be lots of fun

Skateboarding

So Landen has this obsession which started when he would stand at the window and watch his Uncle Chance skateboard. He would watch him for hours. One day Chance took him out to try the skateboard, and the guy wouldn't get off of it with out a fight. After that he would use anything he could find to skate across the floor with. He would mostly use cars, and Tupperware lids. Well then this came about. Watch the video, and pay close attention to what he is using as a skateboard. I was amazed by what this little guy could do!

Easter Egg Hunt

We all went to Nana's house for an Easter Egg Hunt. The boys had lots of fun. Xander, Kayden and Jace all took off for the eggs, and little Landen found one. He opened that egg and when he found out there was candy inside he didn't care about the rest of the eggs. A BIG thanks to Nana for such a great Easter Dinner. How we love when the family gets together every Sunday, but when thoes holidays fall on a Sunday how much more special they are!

Easter Morning

Here are all the boys in there Easter outfits ready to go to church! These pictures where taken in front of Nana's Easter Tree!


In the attempt to get caught up there will be lots of pictures and videos coming your way!
HAPPY EASTER!

Craziness

I haven't posted anything in a long time, but I have a very good reason...I promise.
First we got rear-ended back at the end of February, and it has taken a month to get the car fixed. I also got whiplash pretty bad, and have been going to the chiropractor to help with all the headaches (which I normally don't have). Accidents are never convenient for any party even when it isn't your fault!
Second we are in the process of getting a house (YEAH)! We have been doing all the inspections and hope to close sometime after April 7th.
Third our computer has been down, and so my cousin has it currently trying to fix it, and so our little lap top won't hold all my programs, and so I can just do the basic on that.
So there has been our crazy life in a Nut Shell! I will post pictures, here soon, and a video of the house when I get our computer back.

So this is what Landen does for a half an hour after we lay him down for an afternoon nap. He does it everyday, and we decided to video tape to see what he actually does, because if we are in there he does nothing. Now the kid doesn't do any of this stuff while he is with us. This first one is his song he goes to gymnastics on Wednesday, and for one of the stretches you rub your legs and say peanut peanut butter, and then you rub your face, and say JELLY, and then at the end you pat it down on your legs. The second clip is that he hears the train whistle in the background. he loves to listen for the bus, planes, and the trains. so watch and listen carefully!
