Blogging Loser

What the heck......I have been a total LoSeR when it comes to this blogging stuff! I need to try and make a point to sit down a little more often and update this thing, but I'm not making any promises. I have so many pictures to post so I will try to narrow it down and make this post short and sweet. I guess I will have to start all the way back at Easter. We all had lots of fun dyeing eggs again this year. As the kids get older their eggs always seem to get better and better. I saw an idea on another blog where you can take old ties and use them to dye your eggs. I thought that sounded like a fun and different way to dye eggs, so we gave it a shot. They turned out really light, but still gave the egg a really cool look! I think I still like the old fashion way, the colors are so much brighter!
The kids showing us their super cool eggs!
This year the Easter bunny filled the kids baskets with so many yummy treats and fun toys! He even decided to make each kids basket have its own color. And of course each basket had the traditional giant marshmallow egg! {I sure wish the Easter Bunny knew how much I liked them, and maybe he could manage to bring me one next year!}
Searching high and low for their eggs!
Kaiden really wanted to go and see the Penguin Encounter at the Living Planet Aquarium. We had never been so we decided to check it out. We all had fun, except for maybe Madi, but we were glad we could drag her up there with us!
Mothers Day this year was AmAzInG! It started off early with some flowers! We had a BBQ at our house with my family to celebrate my amazing mom!
The next morning was Mothers Day. I always look forward to all the fun little things that the kids make for me. Those are my favorite gifts! I also look forward to Breakfast. Darrin and the kids will get up and make one of my favorite's, pancakes with fresh strawberries and whipped cream! {The real stuff of course}
The 3 things that make me a mom! I love them so much, they make my heart happy!
Some other fun things that have been happening at our house our..... Madi gets to go to High School next year, ya it makes me feel a little bit old, but I'm dealing just fine! She also made the Yearbook staff for her new school The West Lake Thunder!
Madi is enjoying Volleyball. She just finished up the camp at West Lake and is really getting better! She is hopeing to try out for the schools volleyball team some time in August. We are super excited!
Kaiden has been staying busy with soccer. We have signed him up for West Lake Football and he will be starting this fall! It will be fun and challenging for him. This will be his first year to play and we are excited to see what he can do! Some other big news is he finally let us cut his hair! I will post some pictures soon, but I'm glad to see the shaggy hair gone. It just wasn't him.

Abby decided she wanted to try Gymnastics. She has only been doing it for a couple of months, but she loves it! She is catching on so quickly and she cant stop practicing. They had a little gymnastics meet at the legacy center and she did awesome!
I think that's just about it. With summer approaching we are starting to work on the yard. We are having a rock wall put in and as soon as that's done we will work on getting some grass! {pictures to come soon} We are also excited that the kids are out of school. We are packing up and headed to Disneyland tomorrow!! Hopefully when we get back I will have another fun post!
