Yet another update!

My friend Vikki threw me an amazing baby shower.  She put so much work into it, and everything was beautiful!  I was just overwhelmed with all the love from everyone!



 Easter this year we did another Easter egg hunt with the neighbors in our court, and of course had way too many eggs!
Kyrie is turning 8!!  Can't believe she is growing up so fast!  We went to the beach and took pictures for her baptism announcements. She is so excited to get baptized!

More updating!!

 Finding out we are having twins!  A boy and a girl!  Kyrie is so excited to be a big sister!
 Miracle after miracle, our family has been so blessed!!  I could write an entire blog on this journey but I obviously can't keep up with one blog, so I'll have to save that for some other time.


For Christmas we had Jared and Leslie Lynton's family for the holidays before they moved back to Utah.  We will miss all the Disney meet up trips!



Kyrie and her pets:)

 Kyrie played basketball this year and picked everything up so quick!  She is an amazing defender, not afraid to get in your face!  Her team, the minions, were also undefeated this season!  It was so much fun to watch her and her team win every game:)

Update overload!

So I know I have been terrible at updating the blog!  So I'm going to try and update as much as I can. It's been almost a year so here goes...
 The Gariety Family came last summer and we had a blast!  The beach, Mormon Battalion, Fourth of July, yes, that is how far behind I am.  Sorry.
 We had an amazing family reunion (Stone side) in Kona, Hawaii.  Words can't describe how amazing it was!


We can't wait to go back!!!!!

Kyrie's 7th Birthday

 Kyrie turned 7 this month! We had a picnic/bbq party for her in the backyard.  She kept saying that it was the best day ever so I'm thinkin she had a pretty good time.  We love our sweet Kyrie!  She is such a blessing in our lives.

The Chicken Coop

 We finally finished our chicken coop!  Yes, Brian did most of the work, but I am proud to say I made the door and cut all the trim! We are now the proud owners of 3 chickens.  Kyrie loves her puppy and chickens and said "So we're pretty much farmers now right?" Not quite Kyrie.

Jax

We have a new addition to our family, Jax, a spunky little Weimaraner.  I've never been a dog person but Jax has wiggled his way into my heart.

Field Trip!

Kyrie's First Grade class went on a field trip to the San Diego Zoo Safari Park.  I don't know which Kyrie was more excited about, the park or the bus ride over. Kyrie has never ridden the bus and she was so excited to sit with her friends and she kept going on about not wearing a seat belt, apparently this was a very big deal for her.
 I think it's safe to say the kids had a blast.

Easter Happenings

Posting a little late, but here are some Easter pics.  Our Court rallied together for a rather over the top Easter egg hunt. I think the total egg count was around 900, for 7 kids.  Yep that's right each kid got about 128 eggs.  Kyrie said about half way through, "Mom, my back is really starting to hurt bending over for all these eggs!".  Wow, life is rough!

Above the girls, working up a sweat.
Before and after the Easter egg hunt we had a talk with Kyrie making sure she knew that Easter wasn't about eggs or the Easter bunny.  I know this must be super confusing we were literally throwing eggs at the poor girl all day.  But she told us she knew it wasn't about the eggs.  We talked about how Christ died for us and how He came to life again on the third day, what we now call Easter.  I know my Redeemer lives!  I love Him and know He loves me.

Backyard Transformation!

 Our backyard was a pile of dirt!  Kyrie would occasionally rally her friends and take the bikes and her sand toys to the backyard only to return covered in mud. We loved working with Robert from Integrity Landscape, just had to give him a shout out!
We love our backyard! We have an orange tree, an Avocado tree, a lime tree and a tangerine tree:) I'm  also loving my planter boxes and we've already roasted marshmallows over the fire pit for s'mores.

Every time Brian would grill he would pull the BBQ out of the garage onto our driveway out front. But no longer!  We now grill on our back patio, as it should be. So for our first backyard BBQ we invited the neighbors to join us.
