Happy Birthday Jason!

We celebrated Jason's birthday yesterday
Yea! Luck you..another year older :)
Started off with a breakfast

Opened some presents

Our dinner date to Texas Roadhouse
so yummy & no kids!!!!
Part of his present were Jazz tickets
I found some pretty good seats and he was rather surprised.
It was actually a lot more fun than I thought it would be,they had a really nice tribute to Larry H. Miller and they won! It was a fun night out and a great way to celebrate, especially if you know how much Jason loves sports!
Happy Birthday Babe...I love you!

Guess who got their ears pierced?

We finally decided to let Riley get her ear's pierced so we surprised her and took her on Valentine's Day! She was very excited and incredibly tough. Not one single tear! My parents made me wait until I was 14, and Riley has been begging to have it done, so I thought why wait.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RILEY!

Riley is 7 today! I can't believe we have a 7yr. old and that 7 years ago I was having my first baby! My how time flies but at the same time feels like just yesterday.
We are so lucky to have Riley as part of our family. She is growing into a beautiful young lady. She is an incredible big sister and Rayden can't get enough of her. She loves to dance and play with her friends and is quite the expert on the computer. She is learning to read and has picked it up rather quickly.
We love you Riley and are so glad you were born :)

MERRY CHRISTMAS!



Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! We had so much fun and I loved seeing my kids get so excited for everything. Ryker had been asking for a trumpet and thank goodness Santa got him one...I don't think he has stopped playing it. Rayden didn't want to open anything after she saw her stroller, and Riley said she loved everything even though she didn't get her DS, little did she know it was wrapped up under the tree! Christmas Eve was kind of hard because Jason was on call and ended up missing the Christmas eve dinner and the traditional acting out the nativity. We always open a gift on Christmas Eve so the kids were very tired and had a hard time waiting for their dad, he didn't end up getting home till 1030. They did sleep in till 730 though, so it all worked out. We miss all the family we didn't get to be with but we hope everyone enjoyed the holidays. Hope you have a Happy New Year celebration!
