Izzy turns 8

I can't believe she's 8 already! She's growing up so fast! She was so excited for her birthday. It couldn't come soon enough.

Izzy has been such a blessing! She's so loving and caring, although stubborn at times. I wonder who she gets that from...lol

She tells everyone she's my "everything buddy"; shopping, movie, eating buddy. I love it!

Everyone tells me to enjoy this time with her, because when she turns 13, a switch will turn and she won't like us for a few years.

Last weekend we celebrated her birthday. She had such a good time with her little friends and family. Of course mom was overwhelmed, but everything turned out great!




Cam's Principal's Pride Award

Last week Cam received Principal's Pride award for his reading and comprehension. That is definitely not his favorite subject in school, but he excels at it.

It's fun to watch him grow and learn new things. Cam is a very intelligent kid. Hopefully he will use his brain during his teenage years...lol


Sarah's Bridal Shower

A couple of weekends ago we had a Bridal Shower for my little sister Sarah. It was a lot of fun to plan it with Jenn and Camilla.

Sarah is so organized and on top of things, we wanted to surprise her. We didn't tell her anything we were doing, it was hard to not say anything. I have a really hard time with keeping surprises. I get really excited and want to tell them everything!

Sarah's friends and Clayton's family came. It was nice to meet all of them.

We asked Clayton a bunch of random questions and recorded his answers. We asked Sarah the same questions and watched Clayton's answers. It was really fun to see how well the knew each other. My favorite one was when we asked Clayton what his biggest accomplishment in life had been, he said it was asking Sarah to marry him...awww :)

I'm so happy for them! They are such a cute couple.




Izzy's Soccer

Izzy is playing soccer again. It's so fun to watch her! She's still a little afraid of the ball. She tells me, she doesn't want to get hurt. She's kicking the ball a few times during the game, and running with all the other kids. At this age, they still all run together in a big cluster. It's pretty funny!

Cam's Baseball 2010

Spring Baseball is here again. This year Cam is playing for the Mariners. He loves playing! His coach is a little too competitive. So for the month prior to games starting, Cam had practice for 2 hours, 5 nights a week! A little excessive...but what can you do??? We don't want him to be benched because he didn't go to practice.

Now that games have started, he has 2 games a week, and practices on the other nights. He's enjoying it. Amos and I really like watching him play. He's getting better and better.
