Thank goodness for "Bee Potion"!!!





Brylee has been stung this year by a Bee and we got one stuck in our car last week and many other scary experiences with Bees. So she developed a Bee phobia and it got so bad that she was not going out to play with friends and wouldn't play at recess and when she would get off the bus after school she would bawl all the way down our road because she was so scared. And the bees have been pretty thick this year for some reason, especially at our house because we have a ton of flowers. So her sweet teacher, Mrs. Judy, came up with the cute idea of some "Bee Potion" to keep in a spray bottle that Brylee could carry out at recess and everywhere else, which has been the case so far:) Well it worked! She played great at recess that day and has been venturing outside a little more each day since. It is just not like Brylee to not be outside ALL day long in the nice weather. And the weather has been so nice these last couple of weeks. So thank goodness for her awesome teacher and for "Bee Potion" (which is just water but she doesn't have to know that:))

Our little *CheerLeader*




Brylee did a cheer clinic a few weeks ago for the first Madison Home game. It was so cute to watch her. She had alot of fun and looked adorable. It is so fun to watch her grow and be able to figure out what she is into. I think she might be a sports girl but we will see. She sure can hit a ball with a bat. For now she was our little Cheerleader! Girl after my own heart;)

Payson's in Preschool!

Isn't he so handsome? I love this little guy. I kiss his cheeks all the time and he is now starting to wipe them off:( BUT he is so tender hearted that after he does that, he demands me do it again so I won't feel bad that he wiped it off:) He is SOFT! He started Preschool a couple of weeks ago and is loving it so far. I am so sad to see him grow up but he is going to be a great big brother to baby #3. He is always telling me that my belly is getting bigger...i try to take it in a cute way because really I am growing so fast. We find out what the baby will be on October 14th and can't wait so I can start shoppin' and sewin'!! I am determined to sew for this baby and try to be "crafty" which I am usually not! I need a hobby though since Broc has about 1,000 of them;)

KINDERGARTEN!

Brylee had her first day of KINDERGARTEN last week! WOW....It is still so weird that I have a child that is in kindergarten. She has loved it so far and she is so smart, I know she will do so well. I have to take her everyday and then she gets to ride the bus home. It is so fun to see her get off the bus at the end of our street and run home and hug Payson with a big smile on her face:) She is such a joy and we love her so much! Congrats Brylee!!!


This girl can pose for pictures! HA.


Payson starts preschool this week....crazy! They are growing up!

Surprise getaway!

This last weekend Broc took me on a little get away to Jackson Hole to stay a night and golf at Hunstman Springs in Driggs. (his anniversary present for me, he surprised me with) WOW...that golf course was amazing. This Golf course is usually around $300 or something to golf on. Broc has some connections and got us on free! It was SO pretty, as you can see our view of the Tetons. We ate lunch at their clubhouse after and the food was also amazing. After golfing saturday morning we headed up to Jackson where we spent the rest of the day walking around, laying around, a little shopping and just enjoying some relaxation. It was a fast little trip but so fun and I love how Jackson is so close to home but yet you feel like you are so far away because of how different it is up there. It was the perfect get away!


Thanks Broc!

A Celebration and some News....

I apologize for being so bad at blogging, this summer has been crazy to say the least. Today is Broc and I's 8 year anniversary. I can't believe it! I got married so young but I would never change anything about that decision. I married my best friend and I have grown closer to him more and more since I really had to grow up with him.:) 18 is young! HA!
He has a fun weekend planned for us and I can't wait! He is always telling me he just wants me to be happy and I am just happy to have him and my kiddos. There's always the frustrating times don't get me wrong, no marriage is perfect but I'd like to think mine is close to it. Love you B!

AND.....another announcement I finally feel good about giving is that we are expecting baby #3 around March 6!!! I had another ultra sound today and we got to see the little thing in there and everything was perfect. I am over 11 weeks so I figured I could share the news to those who don't know:) We are really excited and the kids are too. Brylee did say today though "If your baby is a boy I will NOT help take care of it". She kind of wants a sister:) She is a handful lately so I hope I can make it through this pregnancy sane....

Kay Family Rendezvous

My mom put on a fun family reunion in July for our immediate family. It was a blast. Good food, a jump house and pool, Olympic games to go along with an Olympic theme..."A Generation of Champions", an awesome talent show, camping in the yard, movie on the side of the house with projector and so much more! I did learn how talented everyone was at the talent show. My nieces did Bon Qui Qui...if you haven't seen the youtube video, look it up! My nephews were Napoleon and Pedro (Classic!) Jamon even did a dance:) Brylee Hula hooped, Broc roped a fake cow and mom and dad told a classic old tale. There was more too! It was good memories and we will all cherish it forever. Family is truly the greatest gift we have. Thanks to mom for all her hard work to make this reunion happen! We love you mom and dad!

Fathers Day 2010


Ok so I am a little behind on my blogging so I will just have to catch up little at a time. This is my late .....very late...Fathers Day post.

We took Broc to Famous Daves and let him enjoy some Ribs. Broc is the best dad. He is always trying to find things to do with the kids and is always willing to watch them when I work or have anything else going on. He is always positive and is such a great example to our children. I admire him and always wish I could be more like him. He is layed back and I love that he helps keep me calm. That must be why I married him because I tend to be a little high strung and stress way too easy. I hope the kids will always remember all the fun things about him and remember all the times he has taken them fishing, muling, ice cream runs, rides on the tractor, softball games....and many more things they enjoy with him! We sure love him!

First EVER swimming lessons...




Today was Brylee's third day of swimming lessons. I got her in a 5 day course and this is her first time ever to take swimming lessons. I really should have started her last year. She was pretty scared of the water at first because she is used to arm floaties or a life jacket. Today she did great! So much better than two days ago. I will have to keep enrolling her this summer so she gets comfortable in the water. After lessons today we met up with Broc and had lunch at Craigos. It was nice not to have to work today and just have the day to spend with the kiddos. We came home and the kids rode their bikes then we played Candy Land. What a good day!

Preschool Graduation!!!

Bry and her new friend Savannah...
a gross pic of me but Bry is so cute in it....
The new Graduate!

Brylee graduated from Preschool on her birthday! It was a cute little program. They sang their favorite songs and then they were each called down by name and given their little diplomas. We have loved this preschool and Payson is very excited to start up this fall.

We are so proud of you Brylee!!!
