MS walk at the zoo


A couple of weekends ago Jake, Kadence, and I went to the zoo for the MS walk. Uncle Mitch and Aunt Jenny went with us. We had so much fun. Kadence loved seeing all the animals. I also think the four of us adults liked seeing all the animals just as much.








These two birds came right down infront of us and Kadence held onto Aunt Jenny as tight as she could. She wasn't quite sure what to think of them.
One turtle climbed up onto the log and it started swaying back and forth. We watched for quite a while to see if all the turtles would stay on the log. It was funny watching them try to keep their balance.



Gotta love the Giraffes!
Check out this little guy. He was so active and so CUTE!
These guys are enormous. I can't believe that Toby is going to get that big. What are we going to do with him then?

We had so much fun this year at the MS walk we decided that next year we are going to put together a team for Pops so everyone should come. You'll love it!

Tagged by Jenny Moses!

So my new sister-in-law tagged me and when I read the directions I thought it was such a good idea. What I did was go to my 4th folder in my pictures and post the 4th photo in there. I smiled so big when I saw it was this picture. Oh what a joyous day! This past May I graduated from ASU West with my bachelors in Education. It was a long time coming and was such an awesome day. My whole family was there and took me out to lunch and threw me a party that night. I am so glad that I decided to go back to school after having Kadence to finish up my degree.


Now I get to tag 4 people. So.....Amanda Stephan, Erin Marie, Shannon, and Cassidy! Let's see whatcha got ladies.

The joy of having a child on the move!

So last night Jake decided to get ready for work a little earlier than usual and good thing he did. He had to get all his work stuff into his car from being off work for three days and to his surprise could not find his KEYS!! He had seen Kadence playing with them earlier in the day but did not see where she had set them down. Kadence and I were eating dinner watching Jake look all over the house for them. He even asked K where they were and she said "huh" and shrugged her shoulders. I was laughing so hard. He did finally find his keys after about ten minutes of looking and got off to work on time.
Ten minutes is not actually all that bad for looking for something Kadence has wondered off with. Last week we had a movie from Blockbuster for over a week because we could not find the dvd case. We had the dvd but not the case that went with it. It took us over a week to find that thing. I looked all over the house for days and even super cleaned our house over the weekend trying to find it. In the process I did find a permanent marker in the plant pot and magnets in the dryer. Oh the joys of being a mom!!! I LOVE IT.
