We're back....

From THE Happiest Place on EARTH!!! I'm still not sure if we go mainly for Tyson or the boys...it's hilarous. Tyson is just like a little kid going, I love it! I guess that's what makes it so fun!! So enjoy our MANY pics!! We had a blast and wish our 5 days of fun wasn't already over!
We were surprised with these yummy treats on our doorstep to send us on our way...Thanks Burtons!!
And some more from Grandma Debbie!! Love you too!
Waiting for our airplane in SL


The first day we headed to the Beach. Peyt thought he was going to be able to swim...but changed his mind quickly to just playing in the sand once we got there.
Love those Palm Trees....


They were trying to run from the water....Glad to report nobody got wet this year! :)


Peyts "job site"
What is a Hotel Room if you don't jump on their beds?!?!
Drew in time out...he kept his head like that and wouldn't turn it for the whole time! cute!
First Disneyland DAY!!! We were all so excited!


This is when Drew ran up past everyone else in the line and tapped Goofy on the leg to get his hug! He LOVED all the characters and rides!!!
Pirates!




Since the Tea Cups make Tys sick...we all went instead and they loved it!


After much talking into...Peyt decided to go...Glad I caught his face! It's pricelss!! He was so scared!!



Love this one!!
Riding on the train before we headed back to the hotel...!
We were lucky enough to see most of the characters that day and a lot even twice!! No lines, perfect weather...can't complain!
Day 2

LOVE this popcorn!!! ....and guess they do too! :)
Tiki Room...enjoying some pineapple ice cream before we head in...should have went with a Float though!

AND.......the BIGGEST SURPRISE OF ALL!!!!!!!!!!! Grandma Julie couldn't stand not being there with the boys, since she has been going with us the past 2 times we went...she didn't want to miss a 3rd. We got a phone call from her Thursday morning that she was on her way to California! She made it just in time to spend the rest of the afternoon with us and enjoy the rest of our time in Disneyland!! The boys LOVED it!! You can tell just how excited they are in this picture!
I had to take this pic of their pic...because that face is the best! Peyt was so scared, but a trooper to go on one of my favorite rides with me!
We thought this is cute how you can only see their eyes!
Oh and ya, Peyt STILL cried in the Bugs Life movie, even though he is 4 now...
Another FAVORITE ride!

So excited after the parade!!


HELLO RAIN...!!!!! We woke up to a rainy 3rd Day for Disneyland...still lots of fun even soaking!





Drew loved these hats!

Drew talking to Granmda Debbie super excited to tell her all about Disneyland!

You couldn't even take the ponchos off OR you would be soaking wet! I think we still brought a couple colds home with us... :(




Going home... :( Guess Peyt is really sad to be leaving!

Oh there are so many more pics and this was a ton! Oh well, we are sad that our fun is over but glad to be back in our own beds... now just need to catch up on sleep...especially after not even getting home till after midnight. Yay for Fun Disneyland Trips and for fun boys and with their expressions and reactions that make it ALL worth it!!

Here we go AGAIN! Enjoy!

A little play date with my long time BF...Linds~ I don't think our kids got along as well as we hoped, but we enjoyed chatting! Thanks Linds for getting us together!
AND we got to go have SO much fun at Surf-n-Swim for Karlis Birthday...Peyt was wanting to go back this morning!
Doesn't Peyt look so excited!?!? haha Glad Karli and Ryan cooperated!

HaPPy BirThdAy Karli!!!
Look at the karate chop action...getting ready for the waves!
AND I thought this was hilarious, Peyt asked me to get him a floatie out of the bag so he could play catch~! Well, it worked, just funny he thought of anything we had that might work for them to play with.
Tough guy!
Peyt and I enjoying the waves! He seriously loved it! It took me back to my old lovin' days of the Good Ol' Surf-n-Swim! Fun to go now with my own kiddos! (Thanks Ryan for being one step ahead of me and grabbing my camera! Glad you were on top of it!)
Thank you Burtons for a fun night, we are excited to go back and do it all over again! :)

Because that's what OUR blog IS for... :)

PICTURES!!! haha

I don't know about you, but this is where most of my pics are displayed...then Peyt and I go through and look at them, he LOVES to do that! So here is our recent entertainment...

Drew wanting to go to school with Peyt...doesn't he look great in "his" school attire?!? Too cute!
And...this is what happened while I did Sadies hair for 2 hours...but maybe it's my fault for leaving so many grocery bags in the pantry...in one spot that is, NOT all over the floor! haha
Mr. Little Drew WORN out from the weekend! After church our Home Teachers came over and this is how much Drew enjoyed their company...haha he was out within 2 minutes of them being here!
and who knows...? Just Plain cute!
and DOUBLE who knows...??? Peyt is wearing Drews pants if you can't tell... that was the main purpose Tys snapped this pic.
AND you can't even tell how lucious our Sundaes were! Homemade waffle bowls, brownies, cake, carmel ice cream, chocolate and carmel sauces, cherries, sprinkles, cookie dough and reeses...did I leave anything out??? Well, they were yummy and here is our creations! :)

That's it! Just a few fun pics for you to enjoy, well mostly for us, cause I think by the comments I get, that Peyton and I view our blog the most!!! :) haha

Have YOU seen this...???


I would REALLY REALLY love to hear your opinion on it, if you HAVE seen it. Last night we went and saw it and could NOT believe we sat through the whole thing to be honest. There were 8 of us that went, and NONE of us were impressed, mostly just VERY dissapointed. Yes, I could be a little crazy, but after the movie I went and complained how horrible it was to the manager and ended up getting rain check tickets to come back for another show! haha So now that I know I didn't REALLY waste $$ on it, I am okay with us sitting through it! :) And the delicious Cold Stone that followed may have helped! But Yes, the story of her being murdered is disturbing and sad, but there were too many useless scenes in the movie that just ruined it. Anyway...SOOO I WOULD LOVE to hear what you think of it or maybe even the book if you've read it. Just wondering why something that looked so great was just simply NOT so great! :)

BecAuSe REALLY it's been 2 DAYS...!

HAHAHA....AND I am in a good mood! Just proof to myself of how lucky I am. I was able to get a little break tonight to go have dinner with some friends, because one of them is moving FAR FAR away... :( I love spending time with any of my friends cause sometimes that's just what you need is good friends! So thanks gals for some good laughs, it was nice to have an enjoyable farewell dinner with you ALL!!! :) cheesy I am, but it's okay!
Poor Kyah, just didn't know the timer was about to go off! jk, she is cute as ever!
and um...well, this is a pic of Misty's "cute" tacos!! Guess you had to be there...
And thanks "Dave" for this great pic~ maybe he should switch to the photography business instead of being a waiter...?? ha

AND poor little Drew...he never falls asleep out of his bed and since he has been sick the past few days, this is where he konks out! Oh so sweet, and cute! I am thankful for a good friend who knocked some sense into me this morning and reminded me that when your child has a fever for the fourth day and still isn't improving you should probably take them to the Doctor...so that we did AND he has Double bad ear infections with a terrible head cold while the fluids are draining and causing his horrible cough! Glad to report it's not in his lungs though! So thanks Misty for helping me out on not completely losing my Mother of the Year award!! :)
Yes, I may just be super blog obsessive, but you have to admit you love coming to my blog to see a new picture and an almost daily update...admit it :)

Something(s) fun...!

A fun day at Chuck-E-Cheese...of course when the kiddos weren't sick...but still thought this was a cute picture...they told me when to take their pics for them, it was funny!
Peyt and Drews last little play time with Pierce and Brock...they wanted a house built so we threw some blankets on the table to cover the openings and they loved it! They are so cute, and we are going to miss them way too much!
Cute little Drew LoVES to call his Grandma Debbie...she may be the only person who would sit and chat with him for hours...so thanks mom!
I got to go do a 2nd Bridal Show with my brother Nate...the first one was at The Grand America, it was awesome and this one was at the Canterbury Place in Bountiful. It is so much fun seeing all the new amazing things they have for Weddings these days...and meeting these happy as can be brides to be! BUT this centerpiece I loved and wanted a pic of. At the Bridal show is also where I asked a "Hair Professional" about my hair and she told me that I should never have my hair cut above my shoulders or wouldn't look good as a blonde. So looks like that was just the advice I need to talk me into keeping my hair the way it is! :)
Us at the Booth set up...we didn't get a good enough pic of all the cool stuff Jill put together...maybe at the next one. Thanks Nate for having me help you, I love it!

So nothing too exciting since we have been sick around here...I did get to go see Taylor, my brother in law in his play...he is so talented and it's fun to watch him perform! Other than that, I will just stick to spending time as a fam, keeping up with The Bachelor Drama, and hoping that our home will sell soon!!!!!! :)

Its OFFICIAL...


We are selling our home here in Syracuse...and to fill the scoop since many of you've asked why...we got lucky and back in the fall we found a great deal on a lot in Kaysville, reserved it and are now waiting for it to be developed. It was SUPPOSED to be ready by the Spring, but if you know Construction, it will be longer. Anyway, we know it can take some time to sell, so we decided we better start now. I pulled up to our home on Monday to find the For Sale sign up and that meant it was finally for real!! So thanks for all the phone calls, comments and questions of concern, but not to worry...this was our plan all along. To build here and sell after two years. It went by faster than we could imagine, but we are ready for a new adventure!!! So thanks for all the Good Lucks, yes we will be sad to leave if we sell it, but we do hope that your "Good Luck" really counts for something!! :)
