SWEET HAIR SIS!!

Peyton has always had some funky hair. It is way long and thick in the back but nothing up front, but watcha gonna do about that, but anyways a couple of mornings ago we woke up to this pretty DO!! I had to take some pictures to torment her later in life. Love it!
The best part was how normal she thought she looked!
This is kind of her new smile, gotta love it!



LOVE YOU GRAMPS!!

These got all out of order, but I do not want to redo them. On April 3rd we layed my sweet Grandpa to rest. It was a very great funeral and brought alot of closure for me and my family. It's always nice to have behind you and now we can just hang on to the many memories we had with him!
I LOVE YOU GRAMPS!! This was to funny! After we got up to the cementary the hurst broke. We said if Gramps was here he would be right over there helping them out. He was always willing to help anyone and everyone!
We did not take the kids to the funeral just the viewing so here they are next to "old" grandpa, (old grandpa is what Caleb would call him). Caleb was very interested in his death and really wanted to see him, then once he saw him he was OK and we (well Quinn) tried to explain to him where Gramps was going. That was a treat to watch but every single night since his viewing Caleb will pray for Gramps who went to heaven and then pray that Mom won't be sad anymore. So sweet!!

WE WILL MISS YOU GRAMPS!!

With a very sad and heavy heart I write this post. My sweet Grandpa passed away this morning. He was one of the most active and healthy gramps out there so this came as a surprise to all of us. Sunday morning my mom called and said it was not looking good so I headed down to the hospital. We have such a great and supporting family that we were all there to laugh, cry and hold each other up in these VERY hard times. I have never enjoyed each others company so much and I know my Grandpa was there with all of us. We all got to say goodbye to him and let him know how loved he was. He is on to better things, like seeing my Grandma who has been waiting very paitently for 12 years to be with him, give her a hug and kiss from all of us. I know speaking from the whole family we sure are going to miss him so much. This sand dunes trip coming up will not be the same without you, but you will not be forgotten. I love you and miss you so much!! He is on the top row on the left(this is a very old picture but it is all I had)

"WOW I THINK I LIKE IT!"

I have been wanting to redo Calebs room forever but just never got around to it so for his birthday I thought we would surprise him with a new room. He has always said he wanted a Jazz room so I found a lady who could sew stuff on the comforter. I wanted the real Jazz logo but due to copyrighting she could not so we did our best to match it. We sent him off to school and got started, my Dad came up and hung everything while Quinn took him to Boondocks, then when he came home we took him up to see his surprise and it was priceless. He walked in and was like, "I think I like it!" But he does, him and Peyton play up there for hours now on the hoop (so he can get as good as D-will of course). I love how it turned out and I think it will be able to grow with him forever. His new bed!
Quinn was able to get his D-Will jersey signed
We got a "Do you measure up to D-will poster" he loves to see how tall he is getting and if he is as big as D-will (pretty much his idol if you haven't got that)

CALEB'S SPECIAL BIRTHDAY BREAKFAST!

I am a little behind on the bloggin. Caleb's birthday was on March 19th so we had a birthday party on March 18th and then on his actual birthday we made him his favorite breakfast Chocolate chip pancakes! Then he went to school then daddy picked him up and they went to Boondocks. Then my mom was in town so we had a little party here and had his favorite thing for dinner Tacos. Happy Birthday!!

Wow, where does the time go my little buddy is 5!! Caleb wanted a Transformer party (of course) so we had it at Classic Fun Center. It was so much fun we had all of our family, and friends come and had a fun time, thanks to everyone who came! I want to tell Caleb how proud I am of him and what a good boy he is! I can't believe he is starting kindergarten this year! SCARY! I love him so much and thank him for everything he does to bring happiness in our lives.
