I know

I am so bad at keeping my blog updated. It seems like our lives are a continuous round of the same things happening over and over again. We are still enjoying this cooler weather by spending most of our spare time working in the yard. It has been a great workout for us, and it's looking really great.

Our kids keep us so busy and always make us smile. Evan is registered for kindergarten next year. It's amazing that he is old enough to attend school. To me, he is still too little to be in school. He is so excited to ride the bus!

Madilyn is always a charmer with her painted on smile and fiery personality to match her hair. She has been talking a lot more and is so bossy.

It makes me so proud to see my kids loving eachother and playing together.

Todd just finished his first semester of his bachelor's program in computers. Three more to go! It is so hard for him to work full-time, go to school full-time, and find time to spend with the family. He is juggling it all really well I think.

Other than that, our lives are just filled with typlical life.

Weekend at the Ranch

Madilyn is two!

Madilyn's birthday isn't until the 31st, but we celebrated it this weekend with family at Todd's Grandpa's ranch. Here are a few cute photos of the birthday girl. We sure enjoy having this happy little red-head in our family. I could watch this girl for hours and never get bored. She is so cute and funny! If she's not mad, she has an adorable grin painted across her face all the time.

What we do for fun!

Todd and I decided that instead of spending money on crazy stuff for our anniversary, that we would fence in our yard instead. Living on a college street is really scary with little kids. Our yard was fenced along he back, but not on the sides of the house. So we had our first chain-link experience. Now our kids have a nice, safe place to play.

Spring

The two weeks of nice spring weather that Arizona gets is here, and although my blog might miss me, my yard is looking great. I will post pictures later!

So much love

I know I don't write a whole lot on my blog, because I just love to share pictures of the cuteness that surrounds me. I have great kids, and even though my camera is really crappy, they are still so cute!

I have so many reasons to love these adorable little kids. They make me so happy every day. I have had a lot of fun conversing with Evan since he now understands so much. He has been telling the funniest stories! Madilyn is getting a little more hair, and we are having fun with it. They are really liking each other more, but with that comes more fighting. We just keep trying to get them to love each other more, and reminding ourselves that this is just a phase.

Todd and I had a great weekend. We were able to have his parents and older sister and her family over on Saturday for steak and visiting. I am the luckiest woman in the world to have such an amazing husband! We are looking forward to celebrating our 7th anniversary in a few weeks.
