soccer picnic and growin up!


Tanner has just changed so much this year, its amazing.
He's a little boy now who goes to school, plays soccer, fights with his brother and wants to be just like him.
This was the first year Tanner played soccer and, ummm, well, lets just say it was a good thing Thomas coached his team. lol. Lil Rebels is the name of the team and these kids were just AWESOME, and so much fun. Tanner had a good time and learned what it takes to be on a team. But to be honest I think my husband got more out of it than any of them. Thomas is an amazing coach, no question about that. But this team did something different for him than the football teams I have been watching him coach for 15 years. He has perma grin the whole season. The kids and parents adored him and he really made everyone feel involved and a part of this team for 4 year olds. Their are only 3 kids out there at a time, no score, at least 1 kid scores in their own goal every game. And its a riot. Maybe Thomas realize he's not just a football coach, that handsome guy out there can coach anything. Even soccer, the sport that he insisted wasn't a sport! lol







Back to Tanner-man, he did so great at soccer when he wanted to. When he didn't have any interest in playing, we learned to not argue. We learned this the hard way.
If that boy has his mind made up that soccer is not something he wants to do that day, it's not gonna happen, soccer is outta the question. So he had to sit and cheer for his team but no one was forcing him to play. We pick our battles ;)


I love these 2 pictures, such handsome little boys.
This was at Tanners picnic for the last day of school!

All his classmates. This picture took FOREVER to get.
Weird but 4 year olds don't like to sit still. go figure.


This is Miss. Julie and sweaty Tanner. She was such a great teacher and Tanner just fell for her right away. He still talks about her everyday and because she lives close he asks all the time to drive by her house so we can say hi! so cute. She made them all a little scrap book that is just the cutest thing you have ever seen. We are big fans of Miss. Julie over here!


I love this one too!
We made it together at his school for the mothers day tea. School did so much for him and in 1 year he has grown up so much its scary.
He is such a kind, sweet and stubborn lil boy with LOTS of opinions. He loves to cuddle, swim and dance. He loves making people laugh. He is so adorable with Cassidy and is always trying to help her do new things and looks up to Tristen like he is the coolest kid out there.
That's why he's my little Tanner-man, I just love this kid.

2 years ago

2 years ago she was safe and sound in my belly,
now she is a little girl with her own lil attitude.
2 years ago I couldn't comprehend having a lil girl,
now I still stare at her amazed that she is here.
2 years ago it was the 4 of us living in a house,
now our family of 5 lives in our new home.
2 years ago it was all about trucks and the color blue,
now we have added baby dolls and a speck of pink.
2 years I thought I couldn't be happier,
now I am the happiest I have ever been.













It's all about you, Cassie-Roo.

JT & CK

Girls night out!!!!

We (30 chicks & I) went to James Taylor and Carol King and I have to say it was in my top 5 all time favorite shows.

We started at Jude house and had some drinks and apps- everyone was dressed up in 60's and 70's attire~ big glasses, flowery dresses, big ol hats and peace signs everywhere. Funny but I didn't have to buy anything for this event, my normal clothes seem to mesh right in. whatever, I'm cool with it. BUT Chelsea did hook me up with some super fab shades and a headband to complete the look! WE LOOKED AWESOME!!


Now normally a JT concert doesn't consist of 30 grown woman acting like 17 year olds that just slammed a bottle of Boones Farm in the parking lot, but this one did! I had to laugh because as we were all walking into the Palace, I looked in front of me and it was a sea of drunk hippie chicks huggin and stumbling and laughing there asses off. I loved it. It was one of those moments when you sit back and think OMG I'm so glad I'm here right now.
