Just a small update

I went with Barb, Jen, and Brendy to Vegas for a girls trip back in September. Brendy was pretty sick the whole time so she stayed in the hotel room a lot (hence she's not in the pic). This is us riding the shuttle from the Tropicana to Excalibur. We had a BLAST just laying by the pool, shopping, eating out, going to shows, and staying up late.My kids have become technology FREAKS! Ryder is on Jon's iPad and Kendra is on my iPod Touch.
Ryder started PRESCHOOL!!!! He goes to Miss Cheri every Tuesday and Thursday for 2.5 hours. It's a nice break for me and he has SO much fun seeing all his friends. This is him on his first day.
Grandma Barb bought Ryder some sweet tools from a garage sale. He loves to wear these goggles and the chainsaw really moves and makes sounds.
Kendra has finally started to get some hair!! See her little wing on the side? I'm so proud of it! HAHA! It has taken so long for her to get it!
Life is great and we are as happy as can be! We just moved into a rental home after 3 long years in the San Angelin apartments. We LOVE having all the extra space and our neighborhood is quiet. It's so nice. I no longer have to sleep with the bathroom fan running to drown out all the noise surrounding us. We love our new ward and our new callings and we have even made some new friends! We feel so blessed.

Labor Day 2011

We went to Grandma and Grandpa Bear's cabin for Labor Day this year and had a blast. The first two pics are from the races we went to. Ryder was so into it, but I think the loud noises scared Kendra.

We also went bowling and Ryder got to bowl for the first time! He was pretty frustrated by it, but we had fun watching him try!
I love the toddler bowling shoes that they have.
Kendra waiting in line for her turn at the arcade game. HA! Jon bought me a 22 pistol while we were up there and has since bought me a shotgun. We have been having tooooo much fun.

Newport Beach Part 3

Sooo I found these pics that somehow didn't get posted. Jon, Justin, Jake, and Brent made this sand...pyramid. All Ryder wanted to do was wreck it.
The bathing beauties. Me, Brendy, and Jen.
KK had a bad accident on this trip. Long story short she fell flat on her face onto asphalt from about a foot and a half off the ground. Please don't ask. It was horrible and I don't like to relive it. Anyways, she ended up crashing on the beach after a rough morning and visit to the emergency room. We wanted to make sure she didn't break her nose.
The boys hard at work.
Ryder frolicking on the beach haha!!
Love my kiddos.
Kendra LOVED laying on this sandy sheet. We were cracking up.
First time at the beach!!
The first day we got there was FREEZING so we were kind of bundled up.
Ryder had a blast and loves the sand.
