Brayden at swim meet





Grand children with Grandma






We took some family pictures. Getting us all together is a little tricky, but we wanted some pictures with all of the kids and my mom. My older sister has four kids, I have five and my youngest sister has three. That is a lot of kids. It was a really, really hot day. I think they look pretty good. Poor Brayden, he has my sensitive eyes. He had a very hard time looking at the camera with the sun in his eyes.

San Diego Zoo





We spent the day at the San Diego Zoo and had a great time. Colton took a ton of pictures of the animals with his new camera. And a few of the kids. I had just bought a new stroller because my old one was falling apart. The new one is GREAT. All three kids can sit on it if two sit in the seats and one sits on the front. They all like it and it is much easier to push. The only problem is that it is much bigger and harder to get in and out of my car. Worth it though, when we are at the zoo or Sea World.

Shannon's Birthday celebration


Shannon's birthday was in April, but we were never able to take her out to celebrate until now. We shopped and had lunch. Luckily, Dakota was able to come with us, which was fun.

More Legoland




Legoland August 13, 2010






We met some of our friends at Legoland. We have gone a few other times and the kids like it. It is about 45 minutes away from our house, so I thought we would go more often. But we all like Sea World, the SD Zoo and the SZ Wild Animal Park better, even if they are further away. The kids do like the rides and they all like spending time building and then racing cars.

More at Sea World


Sea World August 11, 2010







All five kids went with me to Sea World and we stayed there for hours and hours. We had a great time. It was really fun seeing the night shows. We sat really close for the Shamu show and got wet. Still fun. I bought all three little kids Shamu pajamas on the way out because their clothes were really wet and we liked the pjs. Very fun day!

August 18, 2010 Various cute pictures



We put all the kids to bed in their own beds, but somehow they all wind up back in our bed at some point in the middle of the night.

Brayden lost another tooth!
