Oregon Trip

One of my best friends from High School Stephanie got married in Oregon, so me and Brad went with Glenn and Danyelle and spent the weekend. We had so much fun together. Between my suitcase completely falling apart and one of the most craziest wedding events I have been a part of it was an absolute laughing fest! Danyelle and I went a day earlier than the boys and we didn't stop laughing from the time we got dropped off at the airport until we came home.

Emily started Preschool she goes to Mrs. Robertsons Preschool. I  cannot believe how grown up she looks!

Lake Mead Day

My MOST favorite thing about Brad's new job is all the time we get to spend together as a family. He gets some mornings off and some afternoons off early so we are able to go and do things! I LOVE IT!! The kids love it too! We decided to take the kids to Lake Mead, its only 20 min from our house now! Andy and I didn't get in the water but Brad and the girls had fun playing and swimming.
 
 
 
 

Izzy's 9th Birthday

Izzy turned 9 this year and we celebrated all weekend long! Her Grandma and Grandpa Hawker came and brought cousins Ali, Mandi, and Gweneth. My Nephew Brandon came and brought his kids also. We went to Chucky Cheese for the Brithday party, Grandma Hawker took Izzy to see Phantom of the Opera for her present, and then we spent a day walking around Vegas looking at some fun casinos. It was such a fun time and so great to have so much family time!

Izzy got to choose someone to go into the ticket booth with her, so she choose Emily. She choose wisely cause Emily grabbed the 1000 ticket prize! It was awesome!
