I can't take credit...

Ok so I know my blog looks amazing...i wish i could take credit...but i can't! Darn. My friend Kassie does some amazing work and has a sweet design blog click here to see it!! Thanks Kassie for giving my blog a makeover, it needed it! Everyone go check her out!

My Baby turned 3!!!

It is just so crazy to me that my baby is 3! Sad, sad, sad! We had to plan a last minute party since we were in Vegas right before his birthday. I ended up just reserving a table at the Rex Jump place and we got pizza and let the kids run wild. It was perfect. They were all so happy and Payson of course got way too spoiled. We got him a big boy bike and i knew it would be too big for him but Broc insisted on a "real" bike so hopefully he grows into it this summer. Until then, Brylee thinks it's a nice change from hers:) The saddest thing ever happened though....I had my friend Tatum make the cutest tractor cake and when i went to get it out of my car the cardboard that it was on bent in the middle and the front of the tractor went sliding onto my garage floor! Oh i was sick! Payson's face was so sad too, i felt horrible. But we ate the trailer part of the cake and it was yummy! She did SO good on this cake, it was adorable, unfortunately this is the only pic i got and that was after it fell.:(







Overall a great birthday for the cutest 3 year old EVER! We love you Pays!!!

{our VEGAS get away}

Hanging out at the condo in Vegas

Limo from the airport

All the girls before we headed to the strip to start the long day of walking ( next time i will take my Nike's...who cares about looks!)

The guys

We went to the Mentalist...it was a crazy show but so good. This is our friend Claudene who got called up on stage.

Us on the Strip our last night there


Dinner at a Brazilian Steakhouse....oh so good!

We got to go to Vegas last weekend. It was a fast trip that we took with 4 other couples. It was just so nice to get away for a few days and not have any worries! We flew out on Thursday night and got to Vegas pretty late so we walked to a grocery store about a 1/2 mile away from our condo and bought some groceries. We didn't get to sleep until about 3 am and then we were up bright and early for the start of the first day! We walked and walked and walked...and walked. HA...i'm not kidding when i say my feet hurt SO bad by the end of the trip. We ate some good food. And Broc won $100 bucks at the slots.....that was awesome! We went to the Mentalist and to KA. Both were very good. We saw some dang funny things like this one guy was sitting there with a sign that said "My father was killed by a ninja....need money for karate lessons". Crissy gave him $2 to get our picture with him. I'll have to get a hold of that pic. Then there was this guy who was either high or drunk or both, he was smoking a cigarette and we were in a big group waiting to cross a street....well he was just talking away to himself and he set his cigarette in one of those ash tray things on the street and picked up some other cigarette and started laughing like it was so funny, then he just walked off laughing. He wasn't even smoking it but it was SO funny. Kind of sad how many messed up people there are though. Anyways we had such a good time. My stomach hurt from laughing at the end of the trip. We have some fun friends!

And why am i always so anxious to get back to my kids??? Everytime we get back, they want nothing to do with us! They both got spoiled by their awesome grandmas and grandpas.

{Colbie Concert}




I went to the Colbie Caillat concert a few weeks ago with some friends. We had so much fun, and the concert was great. It's always a hoot with these girls, lots of laughs that's for sure. I get to go to Vegas in 2 days too, I'm feeling pretty spoiled about now. It's been so long since i've been somewhere nice and warm. I can't wait for summer!!!!

{Baby James}


I got to watch my cousin's baby for a little while the other day. He's so cute! And I can't believe all that hair! Steph thanks for letting me watch him. My kids loved it. Someday kids....;)

{Brownie}






Brylee got to bring the class dog home this last weekend. His name is Brownie and she just adores dogs so this was quite a treat for her. I would love to get her a dog someday but just thinking of cleaning up poop and taking care of one more "kid" doesn't sound fun at the time since these two kiddos are so much work as it is! Anyways....She had a lot of fun with Brownie and wanted to have some pictures of her and Brownie together. So here is their little photoshoot:)

{Lesson Learned...i hope}

2 weeks ago things got suspicious. Everytime I went into Bry's closet I could smell pee. Not really strong but enough that I would search and search to see if there was a pull-up or dirty underwear shoved somewhere. Well I sprayed some cleaner on the carpet thinking she maybe had left something sitting on the carpet and it made it smell or something.

Well last Wednesday morning I walked into her closet to get her clothes for school. And the smell was SO strong. I immediately bent down where there was a big pile of clothes she had pulled off her shelves the night before and I started picking them up and feeling them and smelling them. Yuck i know! And then I picked up a wet sock.....then I discovered a HUGE wet spot on the carpet. I yelled for her to come in the room and for about 20 minutes she denied peeing in her closet and kept telling me that her friends did it. NO NO Bry you haven't had friends over for like a week! So then she finally broke down into tears and admitted peeing in there about 3 times (we think it was more than that) Anyways...long story short I shampooed and cleaned it 3 times and it wouldn't come out so we tore up the carpet. Thankfully Broc has a friend who lays carpet so he came and put a new piece in that day. That pad was soaked so there is no way it would have came out. GOTTA LOVE KIDS:)



If this happens again......there will be an auction for kids on here:) HAHAHA j/k Lets just hope she learned her lesson....especially after seeing me so mad;)
