Potty time, pool time, Kaid's graduation, and a final field trip

My man enjoying nature and a newspaper!! We had way too much fun replacing our old potty (and when I say old, I mean two years old). Camden recently developed a love for the movie Flushed Away. He unfortunately started throwing everything he could find into the potty and saying, "flushed away!!" Thank you Dream Works!! Anyway, one of his toys that went swimming actually got flushed and we have not had a flushing toilet for a week and a half. That is so much fun with one bathroom and a family of 5. I am pretty dang good with the plunger now--YUCK!!

So attractive!! This actually scares me for Kelly. What really happens behind closed doors???? I love that we can still have so much fun together even when all we have to play with is a broken toilet! I love ya babe!

Finally a day that felt like summer!! Huge thanks to Lisa and Brent for having us over to swim. We had a blast and even Cam thought the water felt "nice". P.S. cute buns Lisa!!

Kaiden had his first preschool graduation Tuesday. I was the lucky mom in charge of the blessed event. We had fun at the park and celebrated the four year olds major achievement. The kids were so cute! We ate sandwiches on a stick, watermelon, and grad cap cookies. (Thank you Family Fun!) I can't believe my little Kaiden finished a whole year of preschool. He loved it, much to my surprise. He has been a bit of a momma's boy in the past, but after the first few weeks he did great! I really appreciate all the moms in the group that were so great!

What a handsome little Graduate!! I love my Little Kaid!

We made coffee filter flowers for all the teachers (moms)

Keagan's last field trip as a preschooler. Because of bad weather last monday they had to reschedule for this monday. It was a beautiful day and the kids always love the farm.

We took a wild wagon ride through the parking lot, Ye Ha!! The tractor driver was awesome, he was pulling out all the moves for the kids! We did figure 8s, zig zags and even got to go through every sprinkler he could find. The kids were all over that! (except cam)

My wild animal, I'm pretty sure I could use a room like this at home!

Keagan graduates from preschool!!

So, it's the night before preschool graduation and already we are up until 12:30 am making stuff for school (as if this is the first time). There is no hope for the future! The late nights have already begun and we are talking PRESCHOOL!! (Ok, so I am a bit of a procrastinator :)) I had this great idea to wait until the night before to make gifts for Keagan's teacher and the MANY student teachers. I baked cookies while my oh so patient and helpful husband made flower pens for Mrs. Mangum. That's right, kelly made the whole stinkin boquet. He assured me that he was well qualified because he used to have to tape his hockey stick. Actually, his willingness is all he needed to be qualified. Many props to my man for being such a good guy!! Oh what a glorious sight, all the cookies frosted, wrapped, and finished!! I hope the student teacher's liked them. Keagan was so cute giving them away.

Part of the program was the kids singing "We all live in a yellow Submarine," it was so cute! I was happy Keagan got to sit by his cute friend Kennadee. They did a really good job!

Before the diplomas were awarded, the teachers had a surprise for the kids. Some of the high school boys came up on stage and played the garbage cans for them. It was actually really cool!

My little graduate!! I know is going to feel like a week and we will be back for High School graduation. Time has already flown by faster than I ever could have imagined!

Grandma Sandra is always so great to come support the kids! It was great to have her and cousin Natalie there!

Grandpa also came with a gift from him and Grammy D. They are so great! It was so fun to have people to support Keagan!

Yeah! After three years of preschool, he is finally ready for the big K!

Two of the student teachers made these cute year books personalized for each child. I was so impressed! They are like mini scrapbooks for each student.

Keagan, Carson, and Zachary, part of the class of 2008!!

Last soccer game

The boys! Colby, Gavin, Taylor, Max, Brooks, Keagan, and Sonny. So cute with thier well deserved metals!

not only were Jessica and Ambrose such great sports all season, but they provided pizza for everyone after the game! Super big thanks to the coaches! Grandma Sandra and other family were so great to support Keagan, especially on those freezing cold and always windy games, THANKS!

Seven Happy Years!

Cinco de mayo makes seven years of marriage for me and my man. Who would have guessed we would be where we are. I am so grateful for my wonderful husband!!

Ok, so this should probably be a picture of the two of us, but we didn't take one. Really this picture captures alot of what I love about Kelly, not only is he SO great to me, but he is an amazing dad too! Just look at Cam's face, that is a boy who really loves his daddy! I am so grateful to have a husband who truly loves his family! Kelly is such a hands on dad who is so easy going, so patient with me, and usually up for anything--Lots of loves to you babe!

one fun filled and busy week!

my little 21 month old Cam is always walking around the house saying, "I go potty mommy!" How great would that be to not change diapers for a few months, not really going to happen :(

Keagan had a field trip to a karate studio and a flower nursery Monday. We all had lots of fun! Keagan especially loved being chosen to karate chop a board in half!

After the field trip we headed up to the zoo with the Knights. My little monkeys didn't handle the days many activities as well as I had hoped. We had lots of fun, but were ALL ready for naps by late afternoon!!

My little "activity" children hard at work on the cuttle bugs from Grammy D. Cam was being such a cheeser! I love it!

Friday was the Children's museum. We had another fun filled day with the Knights (Heather and I really do have fun, maybe someone else will hang out with us someday) Camden loved getting drenched at the water feature and Kaid was having a blast being a contractor. All of the kids loved the sesame street exhibit. It really is a cool place to go!! (I am always up for a trip if anyone is interested!!)

Finally after we left the museum we headed over to Ben and Jerry's for some super yummy ice cream and ate it by the water fountain, splash pad. The kids were loving the oh so awaited spring weather and couldn't stay out of the water (especially Easton)! When the musical water program started Cam wouldn't leave the center of the fountain. It was so funny to see his face as the more powerful water started spraying all around him! Once out, he and the rest of the boys paraded around the water with thier may poles that they made at the museum. So entertaining!!
