Cute Kid Pics

My friend Miranda takes the cutest children photos I have ever seen. I really needed so good pictures of Ethan because I haven't had them done since he was like three months old. But of course Ethan doesn't make anything easy. He was terrible and he wouldn't let us take any of him. We got a couple but the other kids did awesome. Mir and I kept laughing at Logan because he kept giving us a "Blue Steel" look in all of his pictures. I think he wanted to look cool. I love them and can't wait to see the rest.

The Happiest Place on Earth

We just got home from such a fun vacation. We took Logan and Paige to Disneyland. We left Ethan at home with family because he is still a little too young and crazy to take an a vacation like that. The kids had so much fun and Paige and Logan did too. Seriously Dave and I love to go to places like that. We loved the rides and made the kids ride everything. Paige didn't like space mountain at all because they transformed it into ghost galaxy for Halloween, but she was a champ and rode it three times with us (of course I had to cover her eyes the whole time) but she did it. We did that for three days on of the days we got to do with our friends from med school because they live in San Diego and it was so fun to see them. After our awesome yet exhausting three days there we went and stayed at our friends and went to the beach and even got to go on a date kid free. We had so much fun and I love to see med school friends because it always seems like no time at all has passed. It was so fun.

Gotta Love Spud Day

I love Spud Day is good ol' Shelley Idaho. It was fun to take the kids there this year. It was a little while ago but I have been a lazy poster. My sister Christy is obsessed with Marathon running and is trying to get me into it. I decided I would try with a mild 10k on spud day morning. It was my first experience running in a race like that and possibly my last. I probably should have trained more that three days because it was the hardest thing ever. I don't know if running is for me. I can see why people catch the buzz though. I love to bike but I don't know about this running business. I did finish though and I wasn't last so I did alright right? The kids loved the parade and came home with lots of candy. Paige only cared about her pink cotton candy, and we loved our funnel cake. Can't wait to go next year.

Happy B-Day Logan

My baby boy just turned seven. I can't believe it. I am not old enough to have a boy this age. I just wanted to post and brag about this wonderful child that has blessed our home. He is so much fun and such a joy to be around. He is very helpful and is such a good big brother. Paige idolizes him and he is truly her best friend. Ethan adores him and just lights up whenever he comes in the room. I can always count on him to help me or say something so sweet that makes my day. He tells me at night "Mom I love you as much as my heart beats." He is so good at school and his teacher tells me today at parent teacher conferences that he is so smart and very popular. It just makes you feel so good as a mom to have other people tell you, you have a good child. I love Logan with all of my heart and feel so blessed that he is part of our family. Happy Birthday. (By the way it was on the sixth but we were at disneyland.)
