Zoo

On Saturday we took the kids to the zoo with my family. It was such a beautiful day ... I think the high was 50, it was perfect. Every time we take the kids to the zoo we usually go in August, this time was MUCH different. Because it wasn't so hot the animals were soooo active. We got to see the Elephants playing with branches and breaking them in half, we saw the cougar playing with his little toy and the giraffes were trying to lick Saedree's shoes. It was a more pleasant experience to go when it's not 100 degrees outside. We had a great time. It was Annistyn's first time to the zoo and she LOVED it. When we got to the orangutans there was a younger one that we decided that we would play with a little bit, so my dad got out the little laser pen. He would shine it down onto the orangutans hand and the orangutan would just look at it for a minutes and then try and eat it, each time being unsuccessful. We did this a few more times and each time he would maybe try bringing his hand to his mouth a little more slowly and carefully and when that didn't work he tried clasping his hands together trying to catch that stupid little red dot ( it was cute because he would put his hand out waiting for the dot) hahah . After several attempts he just fell over on his back and stayed there like he was worn out. It was the cutest and funniest thing ever. I forgot to add a picture with my dad in it (hahaha) Yes he was there with us.







































Date Night

On Friday John and I were lucky enough to have family watch our kids over night so that we could go out. We decided to go to the Texas Roadhouse for dinner since we have never been there. It was AMAZING!!!!!!! The food was awesome and the atmosphere was so fun, we even had the owner come up to us since it was our first time and ask us how it was. I would totally recommend it to EVERYONE. After dinner we decided to go to a movie, we ended up going to Mall Cop ... what a hilarious movie =) . It as so nice to be able to get out and just be together, thanks for a fun date hun!

Football Stars

This last weekend we went to my mom and dad's house. My mom needed some help with my dad and the kids just needed to get out. Here is Bryson and his Uncle Jayden with their football pads on. It was hysterical because Bryson couldn't use his arms at all since they were so short, so every time he tried to do something he would just laugh his head off. We had a great time like always. Go UTES!





Ready to FIGHT

Yesterday Annistyn put on a headband and snow gloves and came out to find John. When she found him she said " I'm ready to fight daddy" it was the cutest thing ever, she was ready to beat him.




Oh she is so priceless. This was after she wasn't feeling good so it was nice to see her back to normal.

OUCH!

Here is my dad's arm after surgery... all I can say is OUCH! Sorry kind of graphic.

Happy LOVE Day !


Just wanted to let the love of my life know how much I love and respect him. He is the greatest daddy and husband in the whole wide world. I am the luckiest person in the world to be able to call him mine. Happy Valentines day to everyone.

Another Accident ... UGH!

Okay so this will make most of you laugh. A week ago I was at Walmart ( of course) when I got a phone call from my mom that my dad had fallen off his cement truck. As most of you know both my parents were in a motorcycle accident last May and both were in the hospital for a month each. Well my dad had only been back to work for almost 2 months... and this had to happen. I don't know the full details of how it happened all I know is that when he gets hurt he does it full force and very well. He ended up needing a 5 hour surgery to replace the radial head of his elbow plus a huge plate and 10 screws because he shattered both the bones in his arm. He was in the hospital for 4 or 5 days I can't remember, how ever long was too long. I am so sick of that stupid hospital I could scream. I think my family has paid enough in hospital bills to buy a wing of the hospital. He is doing well and is at home now driving my mom crazy hahah! Here are a few pictures of our time at the hospital.

My ever so sexy husband... man I love him to death!

Saedree climbed up and snuggled with Pa Jim and Pa Jim went right to sleep.

Eating the most healthy meal ever ... hospital nachos yuck!


Having the time of our lives... ugh not

I don't know why I didn't get a picture of his arm while we were in the ER .. probably be cause it was NASTY!

Annistyn

The other day I fed Annistyn and Saedree lunch and then went downstairs. When I came back up Anni was sound asleep on the floor... What?? Notice the pizza all over her face, hands and carpet lol silly girl.


Super Bowl Glamour Chicks!

For the Super Bowl we went to my Aunt and Uncles house. We had a ton of food and a lot of fun. Saedree and Brittany ( her cousin) decided that they wanted to put make-up on... lol here is the final project... oh boy!


Beautiful girls
