Fun in The Sun 9/2010

Becca and I decided to take the kiddos to play since they got out of school early today! Here are some fun pics of the kiddos

Ben, Isaac, Ana and Liam

Here's what happens when you get two crazy boys and a slide together!

Liam, Becca's boy

My sweet Isaac!

Anastasia, Becca's 2nd oldest daughter.

Suzy, Becca's youngest

Love the rolls of fat on her back! I call her my "tub of love" and "thunder thighs". She's so cute!

Ana

Ana again

Benny

Isaac

It was tons of fun! This will probably be one of the last times we take them out to play in the water before it cools off. I'm excited for the cooler weather, but they sure do love the water. It's great having my sister/best friend living so close. Our kids love it too!

My Pride and Joys!!!

Here are some updated pictures of my pictures of the boys. They are so sweet and so funny. They make me laugh everyday! Just the other day, Isaac told me all about his wish for "stilts"! It came out of no where. It was the funniest thing. I asked him if he even knew what stilts were, and he sure did. He explained the whole thing to me. What a silly boy. Ben is sweet as sugar and loves being the baby. He is our little herbivore! He will eat every single green thing on his plate and leave the bread and potatoes! What a weirdo. He definitely didn't learn this from his mommy or daddy, lol. Although we have been eating much healthier as a family lately to help lower my cholesterol! Yay! Life is good. We are happy!

Sisters Night/ Katie's visit September 2010

Here's some pictures from Katie's visit a couple of weeks ago. While she was here, we had a sister night/pajama party, and a family dinner. Love my sisters and am so thankful for all of the support they give me. It scares me to think of where I would be without them!

Beautiful Becca at the pajam party/sisters night!

Me, Katie, Lily pie, and Becca at our dinner get together!

Ana and Isaac enjoying dessert! Maybe a little too much, lol!

The aftermath of Benny's desert! I'm not sure how much actually ended up in his mouth!

Alecia (Ray's wife) and me.

Beautiful Becca and Beautiful Katie!

Me holding Suzy Q at our pajama party!

Katie, Alecia, and Jeannie! Love you sista's!

Sweet Little Suzy Q!

Our yummy healthy dinner at the sister's night/pajama party!

Mini pizza's on whole wheat bagel thins! Yum!




It was a great weekend and I was so sorry to see it end. Being around my family just helps remind me how truely blessed I am. God loves me so much, and although things are hard, he has given me the best people to support me and to love me!

Summer 2010!!

Wow, it's been a long and crazy summer... and needless to say, my blog has been neglected. So here is a much needed update. Yes, we are alive. And yes, we are doing great.

Isaac's first day of Kindergarten!!!

The little brother of the kindergartner!!!
Here is Isaac on is first day of school. It's still so hard to believe that I am the mommy of a kindergartner!!! Isaac was so excited for his first day and still loves going to school every day!!!

Here he is showing off his new backpack!!! Of coarse, it's Penguins of Madagascar!

Camping over the Summer

Over the summer, the Rogers family had their annual reunion/camp out. As all of you know, I am not much of a camper. I decided to be a good sport and try it out for the boys. ;-) So, as it turns out... I am still not much of a camper, JK!

My sweet little Benny with his sweet daddy!

Isaac picked a flower just for me and insisted that I wear it in my hair all day!

So sweet! Ben playing with the frisbee.

just a super cute picture of Ben with his buzz lightyear wings. I know it's kinda random, but I had to add it in!

Isaac's Preschool Graduation!!!

Isaac's preschool class had the cutest little graduation. This was clear back in May, I just never got around to blogging it!

Here I am with the future rocket scientist!!!

Isaac showing off his certificate!

Singing songs. I love the hat though!

Isaac had the job of holding the flag and leading everyone on the pledge!!!

Don't you love the baseball cap/graduation cap?! It was adorable. I was such a proud mom! Nana even made it for the big day and so did Papa Randy! So, as you can see, it was a super busy summer and to add even more chaos... we have moved as well. YIKES!!! Life is good though. We are all happy and healthy, and that's really all I could ask for! We are very blessed and I continue to be reminded of that.
