HAPPY BIRTHDAY ON THE 19th of MARCH!!

I am a little behind on blogging but Happy Birthday Buddy!! We had his friend Party a couple of days before his Birthday so on his Birthday we went Sledding up at Soilder Hollow and then went to Texas Roadhouse with our friends Ben and Laurie and their kids!! We had them sing Happy Birthday to Caleb and he had to get on the saddle and he was SOOOOO embarrassed I have never seen him be so shy and when I ask him later he said he did not like having everyone staring at him because it made him nervous!!

We started off the night before with the "birthday blanket"

And a little room decorating

Then to wake up to MotoCross tickets to here in Utah and then the finals in Vegas

Peyton bought him the holo-hoop and I swear he likes this toy the best

Last of best of all the games a new bike. He needed a new one so bad his old one was tiny it was the size of Peyton's!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

We had Caleb's party this year at Airborne Trampoline and let me tell you no better place for 10 boys to release all their ENERGY!! I can't believe my little guy is 7 years old, I could not ask for a better kid!! He is kind, loving, sweet and then can be a total boy!!

Favorite things Caleb likes at age 7:

*Playing(this kid would play from sun-up to sun-down if I would let him)*Reading*Jumping

*Chicken Nuggets*Self-serve Yogurt*Golfing*Slurpee's*M&M's*Watching cartoons

*Football*Basketball*Mac & Cheese*Board Games*Swimming*Hula-hooping

*Disneyland*Ipod*Cereal*P&B sandwiches

Caleb in the foam pit

Poor Lilly landed a little hard and got the wind knocked out of her so they had to check her out, then she had to just lay there for the whole party.

The boys playing Dodgeball

Hailey and Caleb

Quinn and Chase

We were seeing if it would make him want another child but it didn't work!!

Dodgeball

He wanted a Green Bay Packer party!!

I made all the kids a T-shirt of their favorite NFL teams,

except for the girls they wanted pretty designs!

All that came to Caleb's party: Kam, Lilly, Hailey, Grant, Owen, Tanner, Caleb, Matthew, Zach, Carson, Tyson, and Tate.

I was trying to snap the picture so fast and realized after that poor Peyton

was not even in the picture, whoops!!

Plus: Aunt Loni, Lindsey, Shelley, Grandpa Doug, Ben, Laurie and Chase,

Grandpa & Grandma B.

GO JAZZ!!

My Mom was not going to be able to make it up for Caleb's actual Birthday party so she made it up to us by taking us to the Jazz Game!! My Sister knows a guy who runs the jumbo tron so they put Caleb up there and wished him a Happy Birthday and then later the whole family was put up on the tron, my kids thought that was the coolest thing ever!! We enjoyed a great game because the Jazz actually WON!! We were up in the suites and the dessert bar is the most ridiculous thing ever and now my kids are going to expect that every time now!!

Caleb and Peyton eating their yummy food

The Birthday Boy and Grandma

He insisted he make a sign so he can make it onto the Tron and it worked!!

Uncle Kendall, Caleb and Dad

INTERGRITY

Caleb was chosen for the Principal Pride honor roll for Integrity. Every 3 months they choose one child from each class for the honor roll, they did a special recognition for all the kids. They were given a certificate and award from their principal. The letter his teacher wrote to nominate Caleb was:

I nominate Caleb because he is always honest and fair with me and his classmates. He does his best to follow all class and School rules and encourages his friends to do the same.

Way to go buddy we are so proud of you and love you!!

One proud little sister

MONSTER JAM

We scored some tickets to the Monster Jam and Peyton ended up going to my friend Laurie's house to have her very 1st sleepover so we let Caleb bring a friend and he brought his buddy Zach.

Caleb and Zach

It was so loud but the boys loved it and it was a fun little night for Caleb. I personally don't think I will EVER be going again. My biggest fear is crashing in a car and this pushed me over the edge I feared for each and every one of those guys out there and I got more dirty looks from my husband when I would gasp or let out maybe a little louder noise then I should have. These guys are CRAZY that's all I have to say!!

ISLAND PARK

We headed up to Island Park with our friends last month. The kids were in heaven the whole time. We played in the snow, snowmobiled, slid down the stairs in sleeping bags(classic),ate way to much food, hot tubbed and relaxed.

Here are the kids standing in front of the largest snow bank I have ever seen!!

Peyton and Daddy

Peyton making a snow angel

The kids all in the sled!

Peyton and Kam had fun for a little while but I swear Caleb and Hailey NEVER would had stopped. Ben and Quinn pulled them up to the biggest hills and then let them go and then went and picked them up. Who wouldn't love sledding if you never had to walk up the hill?

We made the Daddy's take the kids in the hot tub...

And this is how it ends up. These 2 boys can never just sit and relax they are always betting or daring each other. So it started with Quinn running to the first tree and then ended with Ben going to the 2nd tree and somehow Hailey came into this bet and got $12 from Quinn as well.

Quinn did have to do a roll with his as well

The kiddos playing in the snow

The kids overlooking the beautiful mountains, seriously it is so gorgeous up there!!

Kam and Peyton trying to decide if it is worth making the trek down those stairs. It wasn't I had to go down there and help them both up because they got stuck, I have never seen so much snow in my life!!

DAY 28

Last of best of all the games!! It has been so fun to go back and read some of these posts and I am glad I did this. We get caught up in our everyday world and forget to stop and pause and love those around you. At the end of the night when you are exhausted and think about maybe I should have done this or not yelled at them about this, I read these post and remember ALL that I have and how grateful I am for that!!

*I love Peyton because she blessed me to be her Mommy and I am blessed for that.

*I love Caleb because he blessed me to be his Mommy and I am blessed for that.

(Don't mind Peyton in the picture I could not find a decent picture of just Caleb and I)

*I love Quinn because he picked me to be his wife and mother to his children and I am blessed for that.

In the end I hope they all know how much I truly love them and what they mean to me. I sometimes beat my self up for not being more patient, kind, loving, fun.....but I hope they know that I am trying and hope that I never dissapoint them as a Mommy and a wife!!
