County Fair, Miniature Horses, and Pumkin Patch


Out to eat with Brian and Katie! We always have a lot of fun!

Hanna, Maci, and Kade with the miniature horse!

I love this picture. Hanna is so good to Maci!

Fun at the pumpkin patch.. bad picture of me with my eyes closed!

Grandma Layton and cousins... so much fun!

Hanna loved this ride!

Haylee and Hanna won trophies and ribbons for "their" pigeons in the fair. (My brother put their names on some of his birds and they won!)

Haylee and her cousin Jackson's art poster from school that was in the fair!

We have been busy with lots of fun things lately. By the way, thanks for the advice for pictures... I did my hair curly and pictures went well (except for a grumpy baby!) Leah did a great job and I can't wait to see them! A couple weekends ago was the county fair.. I LOVE it... I did when I was growing up, and I still do! We went a couple days and looked at animals, art projects and rode rides. The girls loved it and each got to go on a couple of rides. Then Wayne (being the awesome husband he is) let me stay, while he took the girls home to bed (he doesn't really love the rides there!) I stayed with my younger brother and we had a blast! We only went on a couple of rides, but I loved it! I found out my stomach is a little more sensitive since kids... I had butterflies so bad and was laughing my head off.... The fair was great. That week we got to see two of Wayne's brother's family and it was awesome to spend time together. We miss them!

Last week, Wayne's sister came to visit with her 5 kids and we had a great time. My brother just bought 2 miniature horses, so we took the kids for a ride. The horses are SO cute and tiny! We went to Mesa last weekend for a parenting class (Love and Logic) at Wayne's parents house. It was SO awesome and I have learned so much. We had 2 classes and still have 2 more. I have a lot to work on as a mom! We had so much fun being back there.... but so much to do since there is NO shopping here. WE loved being with family and also got to go to a pumkin patch with hay rides, mazes, and fun for ALL!! Now I am working non stop to get ready for a vinyl lettering party!

straight or curly!??

I can't believe I'm posting pictures of myself on here.. but I need some advice... We are getting family pictures on Thursday and I'm not sure how to do my hair.. I'm really tired of it and can't seem to find something I love. I always do it straight, but had a friend help me curl it and I'm trying to decide what's best ... I'm not the best at making decisions (obviously) so..Let me know what you think!

My Kids... My Life!



Sometimes I feel bad because all I seem to do is talk about my kids... but they are my life! My whole day is consumed with them, and I love it! They are all so cute and fun in their own way...


HAYLEE: loves anything girly...she wants to be 16, loves cute clothes, dancing, and shopping (I wonder where she learned that!?) but she also loves to learn and is a GREAT big sister. She is so helpful at home and with her sisters! I love her curly hair and cute freckles!!


HANNA: is our little tease! SHe loves to do things for a reaction! She will push or bug her sisters just to make them cry.. but on the other hand, she is so cuddly and sweet. She will let me hold and snuggle her and loves to play with my hair. Her favorite things are books and barbies! She is such a fun girl and always keeps us all laughing! Although they all love Wayne SO much... Hanna is the biggest daddy's girl!

MACI: is getting such a fun personality. She is a mix between the two girls. She already loves to dress up, her favorite thing is to put on shoes, or a braclet or bow and then go show someone! She loves her silky blankets and when she holds them her mouth does a sucking reflex even though she doesn't have a bottle.. it's so cute! She also loves to be cuddled and LOVES to be outside! She would live out there if I let her. She loves her big sisters and trys to do everything they do!!
Well... this is my life and I couldn't be happier! I have a great husband who helps so much and who the girls adore.. and I have 3 of the sweetest cutest girls that make every day worth it... even though there is definately ALOT of DRAMA around here! :) I count my blessing everyday!

School Pictures...


I feel so old! I remember when I used to dress in my favorite outfit and get school pictures taken... NOW I have a daughter who brought home her school pictures... and I have to say, they are pretty darn cute! The first thing I thought when I saw it, was that is her "shy" smile, but I think the picture turned out great. She was so excited that it showed her silver "princess" teeth (as her dentist calls it)!
