Samoan Husband

What else can I say. . .yep I married him!!!

Paintball Boys!!

Aidan had a paintball party!! What a BLAST!!!

This was the first time Aidan wanted a big party, usually he has 2-3 friends, but this year he was ready to celebrate the big 1-0 with a big party!!!!
We have some excellent friends who let us party at their property and use their paintball guns and gear!!! The boys got to shoot at balloon targets and hunt down Delvin. They had a great time!

I made a paint splat cake!!

Aidan has some really great friends!!! I was happy that he had so many come and enjoy a great day with us!!!

Double Digits!!!!

I can't believe it!!!!! Aidan is 10 years old!!! It's amazing how fast time flies!!!! Here's his actual birthday. . .looked everywhere for the candles and couldn't find them, but he was perfectly happy with tea lights - lol!!!!

More Stitches for Mason!!!

Not entirely sure how it happened, but Mason managed to need stitches AGAIN!!! 7 this time - we saw right to the bone on this one! He was so calm, walked in with blood pouring down his foot and says "bleeding". Not a tear out of him, he was so calm through the whole thing and was so curious when they were all done. He wanted to play with them!!! the nurses and doctor couldn't believe how calm he was. He's such a brut!!!

REBECCA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My neice, Rebecca, came for a visit from Texas for a week in August. She just graduated from High School and starting college a few days after she returned. We had lots of adventures with her while she was here. The kids had good "Cousin Time"!! She's such a beautiful and fun-loving girl!!! Was such a blast!!!!
