Jaxon's 5!!























Jaxon is 5 today and I can't even believe it. Wow has the time flown! He really is such a sweet little boy when he's not trying to rule the roost! I love how he turns on the charm when he wants something. I love how everybody is so drawn to him everywhere he goes. I love tbat he still lays with us at night, even if its only because he doesn't want to go to bed. I love how he bosses around his big brothers. I love when he tries not to smile even though he wants to, and his dimples really show! I love how he calls tomorrow "this day." I love how he is so creative and entertains himself. I love how smart he is and can somehow add and subtract already. I love his chubby cheeks, cute dimples, and pretty green eyes with LONG eyelashes. I love that he will always be my last child, and the baby of the family. And most of all I love him for him and that he's mine. Happy Bithday Jax!!

Here There & Everywhere


Dylan has awesome scout leaders and they are way gung ho, so he already has the rank of a Scout and is not even 12 yet. So here he is shaking hands will all his scout leaders after receiving his merit badges and rank advancement at the court of honor. Not a good picture but the only one I have of that night.

He can sleep anywhere and this proves it
Cute boys with their cute Valentine boxes they made at school! (sorry I don't know why it went dark)

I've been a little scatterbrained lately so this post fits me perfectly. Not a lot has been going on around our house, so here are just a few random pictures of what has been.

My Dad and his sisters Bonnie & Vikki



Yesterday we buried my Grandma Sade and it was a very special day to celebrate her life. She is the only Grandma I have ever known, so I had a hard time. She was so fun and had such an energetic personality, I will truly miss her. When we got home last night we had Valentines Day cards in our mailbox she had signed her self to my kids 2 days before she died. We were able to go visit her on Saturday with my whole family there, and share one last day with her. I was able to say goodbye and tell her how much I love her. I have so many special memories and feel so grateful to have spent almost 28 years of my life with her. I feel like breast cancer keeps stealing away the most important women in my life, but am so thankful for the plan of salvation. She always told me "don't cry all it does is give you a headache and never solves anything". Her memory will always be in my Heart...I Love You Grandma :)
