Kaden's soccer

Kaden started his first of many soccer seasons. It is Soccer Tots with the City of Peoria. It teaches just the basics. He had a lot of fun and did a great job listening and staying on task. He looked so big out there running around. We are so proud of him.

Happiness Is.

My Mom

This is my mom. She just had a birthday. I hope you have someone in your life that is like my mom is to me. Maybe it is your mom, or dad, or best friend. I could call her everyday (and I usually do) and she always takes time to listen to what is going on even though I know she is super busy. We laugh and we cry. She is supermom. When her plate is overflowing full she can still add me to her day. My dad once wrote me a letter and talked about how amazing my mother is. He said if I could be half the women she is I would be one amazing woman. I hope that someday I will be half the woman she is. She is my biggest fan, my greatest supporter. I know that she loves me inspite of me. She is a great example of living a life of service and charity. She loves the Lord and it shows in everything that she says and does. She has raised an amazing family (with my dad's help of course) and continues to advise us in our lives. I do pray that I will be like her someday. Happy Birtday Mom. I love you tons!

POTD Wednesday

Remember I am doing Becky Higgins Picture of the Day (POTD) with Project Life? Here is my shot for yesterday. We went to the park and Kaden wanted to push Brendon on the swings. They were laughing so hard. Sweet, sweet boys.

Happiness Is...

I (heart) these pics.

The Goats

My mom knows a man who owns a goat farm. We took a family trip to go see them. We had a ton of fun and the boys absolutely loved it. Kaden just asked me tonight when we are going back to see the goats.

The goat was eating my arm.

Kaden and the watch dog "Hass." He was as big as a horse. Okay maybe not that big, but he was huge. I mean look at the size of his head!!

I hope we go every year. The "kids" are so adorable and love attention.
