May days!!

The boy is potty trained!!!  He loves his "choo choo" undees!!!

What he doesn't love is when I tell him he can not play the Ipad..

As you can see, he doesn't like the camera flash and on top of not getting to play the iPad..he was pretty mad!

Derek went on another trip to Philadelphia this time. 

The grass is finally starting to fill in and we can walk on it now!

The primary did this for mothers day....very cute

She doesn't look thrilled about this whole deal

Makes me happy!

I am glad they know I love them!

Eating mothers day dessert, chocolate and marshmallow rocky road bars 

Just making them a little card with their picture so I have these mug shot!

The girls had an activity for mother and daughters!!  

It was fun to bring both of them!!!

Mom and daughter pajama party!!

Easter and Birthday pizza

For Easter we made these Maxi skirts for the girls.  Saileen pretty much made her own, with minimal help form me, and I made the others, It was a fun project, I would love to do it again!!

They got their Polly Pocket wall toy for their Easter toy! Lot of fun!  

Saileen chose fruit pizza for her birthday dessert!! It was DELICIOUS!!! Cookie crust and sweet cream cheese and fruit topping!!  Excellent choice!

New Family Pictures

Spring is here, time for Family pictures!!!

I Just love how Kenna is Rockin' her pose!!!

This one is my favorite!!  

My Kiddos!!
I Just love these people!!!
They make me so very happy!!!

Derek in Pittsburgh!

All the trenching and stuff all was going on while Derek was in Pittsburgh!

He went to a conference for work. That is a baseball stadium behind him.

Saw a bunch of sites in the evenings. This was his hotel. 

He forgot his razor, so as the pictures get later into the week,
you can see his facial hair get darker and darker!

This was while her was on a run

Of course by the baseball statue!

Another stadium!

We are glad to have him back safe and sound!!

The Yard

Here we are again, putting in another yard!!!  

MyKay LOVED watching the tractor from the window!!

Also sitting in my window sill to watch the tractor...he has a rough life!!  Ha ha

Excavating and building the rock wall!

Lots of rock!!!

These rock were HUGE, they don't look that big from the window, but when you get up close, the are really quite large.  They would probably come up to Derek's knees or higher!

Here it is nearly done!

Time to put the Trampoline in the ground!!

Here is the front yard from the window

Time for trenching and sprinklers!!

Now we have pipes...we are getting there!!!
Hopefully we will have grass growing very soon!!!

Double Digits!!!

Well, I con't believe I am even saying this but Saileen is in DOUBLE DIGITS!!

These are her favorites of her Birthday pictures, she could only narrow it down to 19!!  

She is such a sweet kid!

She got this new hat for her Birthday, she is such a hat person!

She is WAY into Greek Mythology and READING!!

Her favorite books are Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief

She loves to sew and color and draw and paint and pretty much anything art related! 

I love that she is thoughtful of others, especially her Dad... She is very much a Daddy's girl!

She loves her long hair, she wears it well!! 

She loves to help cook!!!!

She has a very tender spirit and is very intuitive when it comes to things of the spirit!

She loves to be outdoors and LOVES jumping on the trampoline!!

Her favorite toy right now is her "Ever after High" Dolls. She currently has 6 of them!

She and her sisters have so much fun playing together and using their imagination!
 I love watching them play together!

This is her "presidential" pose!  Not sure what she is planning for her future! :-)

She has always been an old soul, and she still loves to be with the adults, but is good at watching the younger kids at family get together!

She loves to look at medical book...nothing like blood and such grosses her out!!

She is such a beautiful girl, inside and out!

She has a love of horses....she keeps begging me to get her into a horse volunteer program!

She loves to learn, she loves to try new things!!

She is my right hand man and is quite responsible!!

And boy does she love her baby brother, and he loves her very much too!!!

I just had to throw this in, I told him he needed to go sit down and not be in the picture.
...he wasn't thrilled!

Such a sad thing to ask a boy, when he wants to say CHEESE!

So he got in on one more picture with sister!!!
Hat twiners!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOO BEAR!!!!
