Toy Story 3

Last Friday, Justin and I took the kids to see Toy Story 3. I am not sure who was more excited, them or us! After arriving early, we had to wait awhile for the movie, so we got some popcorn and the kids sat and talked to us as they ate! The movie was great and seeing Noah sit still for the whole thing was a crazy. He had a hard time with the 3D glasses, since they aren't made for kids.

Thanks to Grammy and Pop Pop, the kids had Toy Story 3 t-shirts to wear. Yes, Noah looks really excited here!

We are all sporting our glasses!

Karis is making a "mean face" as Noah calls it, not sure why though.

The Pool is Cool

Go Mudcats!

A Summer Saturday

"Look at this Mommy!"

Upon arriving home from the pool with the kids, Karis excitedly exclaims, "Look at this Mommy!" As usual, I was the last one in the door. When I turned to corner to the hallway, this is what I saw:

all of Noah's cars in a row (you know your son has too many cars when the row is this long!)...

toy story 2 characters at the end of the row....

and Daddy's picture and note hanging from a barrel of monkeys!

What a fun surprise to come home to. The kids got a kick out of it, and I got to see a very creative side of Justin. It is nice to know how much "Daddy loves us." WE LOVE YOU TOO!

Side note: (the pictures were taken by our old camera because our new very nice camera is missing, I wonder where it could be?)

Our Little Photographer!

Karis Ann got a digital camera from her Aunt Courtney for Christmas last year. I wanted to share her pictures with you. It looks like we might have an upcoming photographer in the family!

Noah is her favorite person to photograph!

Karis also enjoys taking pictures of Calvin and us being silly!

She has a fetish with her feet, and I think she was taking pictures of herself when she was supposed to be napping!

Fun at the Park

Outside Day

Team RED!

Here is the team picture of my basketball girls. It was a blast playing again, especially realizing that I am no longer 18 years old and I move slower than I used to. I so enjoyed getting to know all the girls on my team. The best part of each game night was when the game was over, and my kids would run as fast at they could to hug me! It doesn't get any better than that! I am so thankful for Justin being supportive and allowing me to play. Thanks babe, you are wonderful!

Post from Justin:
I wanted everyone to see a few pics from Jeanna's basketball season. The kids and I had a great time watching all the games. The kids cheered, "Go mommy Go." And I helped the refs out by alerting them to the calls they missed, and sat in the stands proud to be the husband of the best player on the court.

Jeanna's team made it to the final game and lost by 4 points. Jeanna made the most 3 pointers of anyone in the league and played some wicked lock-down defense.

On the final night, we all wore our red in support of mommy's team.
