4 wheeling!!

Elley loves riding with Daddy!! He tries to sneak away to ride by himself and as soon as she hears that engine she is running to get on...

Parker has learned how to ride his bike with no training wheels - what a big boy!!

Our little tom boy.....



Parker is such a good driver - he goes over the jumps just like Chance and he loves to take Elley for rides to ....

Our summer adventures(tons of pictures)

We have spent most of our time this summer with Aunt Chelsey and Uncle Ryan!! They are so awesome- they love to play with the kids. Parker loves Ryan and wants to do everything he does. Ryan brought his Kayak(how do you spell that word?) to our house and showed Parker how to paddle around the pool!!


Aunt Chelsey tried to!! She is such a good sport!

Elley loves Chelsey - they are best friends!!

They have a really cool kid pool at there apartment, the kids love to swim there!!
Daddy and Elley

Parkeroni!!

The sweetest little hug- what a good big brother!!

Hansen Family Reunion
Here is my Dad and his brother Jeff!! We rarely get to see him so it was so cool to hang out and catch up!!

This is my Grandpa Loyal- I love this man more then words can say!!

We went bowling for the reunion - Parker had a blast with his Uncle Eric and my brothers girlfriends little boy Carson!!

Chance set up the tent and let the kids play in it!! Chance and Parker slept in it all night but me and Elley opted out of that one!!

Campbell Family Reunion
We went out on the boat and the kids loved it!!
How cute is this girl!!! Brantley boo is such a stinker!!

My mom and Elley belly- she is such a good Grandma!!

Mommy and Elley - I love her so much!!

Parker driving the boat!!

On Monday we went up to the Dam. Look at this set- up!!

How sweet are these two?! They are little fishes - they love love love the water!!

Daddy and Elley !!!

Parkers 5th birthday!!!!

Here is the birthday boy!!! I pretty much cried all day thinking about how fast these 5 years have gone by!! I love this little man so much, he will always be my baby no matter how big he gets!! He got so annoyed with me because I kept making him hug me and let me hold him :)

Look at these 2! I let them have a cupcake before the party started and they were all over that!! They are so cute :)

This is our new pool- Elley loves to float in this big tube!! As you can see she was not a very happy camper - she didn't like that her brother was getting all the attention. Right after this picture was taken she threw his new GI Joe boat and broke the roof off - little stinker!

Here is Elley's friend Mae!! She is so cute, she loved the water and the swingset!!!

Look at that hot body!! Lincoln is such a stud - Elley loves him!!!

Here is park with his daddy Blaker and Blake's girlfriend Jessica!! I am glad that we can all get along well enough that we can enjoy events like this together.

Aunt Loren and Brantley Boo!!

Grandma Laura and Grandpa Buddy!!!

Grandma Gene, Grandpa Kerry and Grandma Marlis!!

I love these girls - Amanda and aunt Sam!!! I can't tell you how excited I am that they came to hang out with us!! I miss Sam like crazy so hopefully it won't take another birthday party to get her over here!!!

These 2 are hilarious!! They made these super hero shirts- is that not the cutest thing!! They are so good to there neice and nephew - and we love them so much!!!

Here is my mom - she always has her hands full. She gave Parker a bag full of Michael Jackson stuff for his birthday, we have already torn everything open and listened to it a hundred times!!

And here is the cake!! It was so fun to make- Grandpa Mike helped me and it was way easier then I thought!! I can't wait to make another one!!

This thing was a life saver!! We rented this blow up slide to entertain the kids and it was so worth it!!The adults loved it as much as the kids did - it was a blast!!

These are my two adorable sisters- Amanda and Mckenna. They are from different sides of my family but they are almost the same age so they love to hang out with each other!! These two will be trouble in a couple of years!!

One last shot of the birthday boy sporting some of his new stuff!! His Dad gave him the costume and Sam gave him the Wolverine hand !! He is my little superhero- and I am so glad that he had such a great day!!! Thank you to everyone that came and helped make his day so special!!!

Driveway Campfire!!

We are always looking for fun and cheap ways to entertain our children!! And me and Parker needed a reality check -we sat inside and watched Micheal Jackson videos all day , I am afraid to say I think I have made my son as obsessed with him as I am- that is all he will talk about now!! So we got this little fire pit for super cheap and roasted marshmallows. The kids thought it was the coolest thing ever!! I am so glad they are so easily entertained still. I am trying to talk Chance into setting up the tent and sleeping outside one night this weekend, we are sad little campers, aren't we ?!

Cutest Pictures!!

WHAT AN AMAZING NIGHT!!!

My Stepdad/Dad :) won best of state in the Arts and Entertainment category for the State of Utah. What a cool honor for him - he does magic shows around hundreds of schools in the state. He has suffered from dislexia his whole life so his magic also has a message - that you can make your dreams come true no matter what obstacles you may face. He really is amazing and what he does and it is pretty awesome to watch this start from a little dream and now see him recognized by hundreds of people for just being him :) It was a very fancy event - so fun to dress up in an old prom dress again!! And any time I can get my Chance in a suit makes me happy - he looked so handsome!!Chance made fun of me because as soon as we sat down I dove into the food !! I am glad we got to be there.

The Big 26!!!

I don't want anymore birthdays lol!! I am already sad that 30 will come in 4 years!! But I am glad that my family still makes a big deal about it and makes me feel special. Parker loves when it is someones birthday - he told me happy birthday a million times, and this morning when we woke up he said ,"wait mom is is still your birthday today," when i told him no he said "Dangit, I have to wait a whole nother year." His birthday is coming up next month - his are always a blast!! But let's not talk about how sad I am that he is turning 5! I can't stand how fast the time flies and I just want to remember every cute moment with them!!

My Dad and I celebrated my birthday and fathers day together last weekend - they are the busiest people I know and our family is growing quickly so we have to fit time in together when we can. This is my sister Loren and my sister Amanda- are they not so adorable?!



My girl!! I love this little stinker so much!! She is three weeks younger then Elley but she talks like a three year old :) she is amazing!!!


Look at this handsome guy!! I love my brother so much - he is a little crazy (hence the new tattoo he is sporting in this pic) but he has such a good heart!! I think this is what Parker will look like when he gets bigger - he acts just like him already!! When I call my mom and tell her Parkers newest adventure she laughs and tells me that was just like your brother at that age!!


She has the funnest personality - she loves to make people laugh!! She always makes my day:)


On Friday night we celebrated my b- day with my mom and siblings!! Getting these people to smile long enough for a good picture is impossible - this is about as good as it gets lol!!!! My sister McKenna is one of my most favorite people - she is such a tough little bugger and I am excited to see what she will do with her life ")


This is me and my little man waiting for Dad to come home so we could go to dinner- he loves to take pictures!! I can't believe how handsome he is getting.


Best kisses ever!!!!


The dinner was a surprise- Laura hid it from me all week!! We went to Kobe - it was so good :) I got very spoiled this year and got lots of great things!! I have a pretty awesome family!!
