Kyla Dance

Kyla had a dance program and at first we were a little worried. Last time she had a recital she went up there, smiled but just did the same thing over and over for most of the time. Like a deer in head lights. So we were worried she would do the same thing this time. Not only because she kinda goofs off sometimes in class, but she had a bigger stage and a lot more people watching. But we were so happy, she did a wonderful job.

And here she is the star of the show!

Rebecca Lynn's Blessing

We were able to bless Rebecca and it was really nice to have both parents here for that (and Brie).

Andrew gave a wonderful blessing.

The Visit

Now I know you have all heard the stories about visits from parents. The horror stories about the things that can go wrong, the awful time people have.....Well, this was nothing like that. We LOVED having Mom and Dad visit. We wish we could have kept them longer. We were able to do lots of fun stuff. Dad helped us put up a fake beam on our ceiling and fix the hole we have had there forever. Mom was a saint also and helped with cakes and etc. We were lucky to have them here for Brev's birthday, Kyla's recital, and Becky's blessing. Thank you Mom and Dad form coming. WE LOVE YOU!

Pictures of Mom and Dad with the kids

We took a lot of pictures with mom and Breven, he kept wiggling and makeing funny faces, so here is the only one where is isn't being silly, and now he looks sad. Sorry mom.

While we they were here we went to the river walk and had a boat ride

And went to the Alamo

Got lost and had to walk a long way back

Had a birthday party for breven

Went minature golfing

Oh and by the way Dad, here is Andrew's game of washers.

Brev Turns 3!

Breven our boy weights 21 lbs. His favorite color is black, his favorite thing to do is tease people, play trucks, and throw balls. He is such a little boy and we love it. (mostly)

(Breven as we are getting ready to blow out the candles. Mom B, Brie and I made the cake)

Brevens cake, he wanted a race car.

Breven is getting a lot better at loving Becky. He was never bad, just really didn't care.

Most of the time Breven and Kyla get along very well.

One of the funny things about Breven is when he doesn't want to so something, he will tell you he is cold. He will do it at meal time, while cleaning his room, or sitting in time out. He thinks if he is cold he can stop the unpleasant task he is undertaking and go wrap up in a blanket and sit on the couch.

Also one of Brevens quirks is he loves to hide from you. He can come up with some of the greatest hiding places. While mom and dad were here, We were at Andrew's gym and I had gone in the gym to say goodbye. When I come out we were looking for Breven and after a bit of searching found him in the coaches lockers in the gym. We had been calling for him and As he came out he tripped fell, and very dramatically limped away holding his knee mumbling "I was just in the lockers"

Brev also like to get his groove on, (when no one is watching)

here he is caught on tape.

Kyla is now 5!

All about Kyla Kyla weights 32 lbs her favorite colors are pink and blue and she loves being a big sister, most of the time!

Kyla on her Daddy Daughter date

Kyla is now 5 years old.

She Loves to help out mommy. Kyla has such a nurturing nature about her. When someone is sick in our house, Kyla becomes our little nurse. She will get them food, or water or snacks, blankets, pillows, and anything else you may want or need. She is very caring and kind. She makes friend very fast, and isn't too shy. At the playgrounds she easily goes up to anyone with in 5 years or so of her age and just asks them to play. She is a leader. When playing with others she is usually the one who is leading the pack up and down the playground.

(kyla and her birthday cake)

Kyla's favorite colors are pink and blue together. She loves to paint and LOVES to draw. One day she was drawing on the big pads that go on the floor, she drew a picture and then in the corner of the page drew a picture of the picture she was drawing. It was pretty fun to see her perspective of what she was drawing. She is also drawing her houses in 3D. and is very detailed in her drawings of things, her people are usually still stick people, but her objects are detailed and in 3D. She loves to write letters to people. She always has a letter for some one.

she loves her dance class, and just recently had a recital that went very well. She is also looking forward very excitedly for school to start.

(Kyla's cake that I made. My friend Kelly told me how to make easy fondant so I tried it)

For Kyla's birthday we had a swim party, cake and Ice cream , then went over to the gymnastics gym to play. We had a great time, Thanks to everyone who came!
