This Summer we went to visit grandparents and cousins for a couple weeks. Here are just a couple pictures of our time spent there. The kids loved playing together and it was so nice to be with family...
This summer we went for a few days to Utah for a family getaway! We took the boys to one of their favorite places Lagoon!! Charlie loves airplanes so he was really excited to drive the airplanes... Isaac loved the "Wild Mouse ride"! Here we all are on the Carousel ride! We spent a few days here and we loved getting away as a family!
Here's Charlie just before getting ready to blow out his Birthday Candles. He was so excited about his candles it was really cute! This year we decided to have a intimate birthday with just our little family! It was so nice... We even took Charlie out to his favorite restaurant! "Chilis" for some pasta!
Here's Joe and Charlie after one of Isaac Soccer games kicking the ball around. Charlie was so fast we could hardle believe how his little legs could move!
Isaac First Grade Soccer Team! We spent lots of evenings enjoying ourselves as a family watching him play soccer! He was excited that he had a few friends from school on his team this year!
We had some friends over Easter weekend to help us decorate eggs and have an Easter Egg Hunt! It was a really fun & relaxing day! Of course the kids had a blast coloring eggs and looking for their Easter Treasure! Isaac and Charlie are getting so big all to fast. I'm just grateful to be here to enjoy the journey!
One morning I came out to Isaac and Charlie's "Fort" in the living room, which they had built out of the couch cushions. It kept them Quite busy for sometime... Although Charlie wanted to crash the fort which made Isaac a bit ruffled!
Easter weekend we went as a family to the Falls! Isaac and Charlie loved seeing them and playing around on the mountains and trails. It was such a beautiful day!
Isaac had a Fun Winter of playing Basketall! Here is Isaac with his team and his coach! We were busy with games all winter long! We had a great time watching him and teaching him to be a team player!
Isaac and Charlie had a blast dressing up like Warriors and playing swords around the house. They fought off several dragons to rescue the damsil in distress! To be young again... It's amazing what imaginations little ones have!
Isaac & Charlie Christmas Morning! They had a BLAST opening their Christmas Presents. Charlie got a new "CARS" bike from Santa. Santa Claus brought Isaac an "ELECTRIC SCOOTER!" Which he loves!
Isaac at his Tavaci Concerts this winter! His class went to the Retirement home to sing to the residents and give them candy canes! He sure loves to sing and be with his friends!
Isaac & Charlie with their SWEET Cousins Thanksgiving Day! All the kids loved playing together and Isaac and Nathan had a great time playing cowboys.... I love when we all get together. It was a day to remember....
This was a very frequent scene at our house in the evenings when Joe was mowing our lawn. I loved watching Charlie tag along and cut the grass with his little mower! Priceless...
Isaac lost his first tooth! It was a pretty exciting day for him. He pulled it out one morning before school. He actually had another tooth coming in behind it. He lost the left bottom tooth! It was so fun to hear all about the tooth fairy and what she brought!
We had a fun trip to visit family on Halloween Day! We went with cousins Trick-or-Treating. We had a great time. I loved seeing all our Neices and Nephews all dressed up and so excited! By the end of the day our boys were so tired.... They did very little Trick-or-Treating that night. I hope to be able to go down and do this each year with our family.
Isaac and his classmates seemed to really love the party we had for them for Halloween. They made Spooky necklaces, Decorated Trick-or-Treat bags and played games. It's been fun being his room mom and getting to know all the kids. I think the best part is watching all the kids and seeing the joy in their eyes. They truly live in the moment.
We had such a great time at the Fall Festival! Isaac & Charlie loved picking out pumpkins and playing all the games. We had lots of FUN! Isaac really liked the rope swing. He was are own little Tarzan! They also loved walking the tight rope together.
Charlie sure knows how to bring Color to our every day life. He is so full of joy! He seems to enjoy each moment to the fullest. I am so thankful for the joy & laughter he brings to our lives...
Charlie loves getting into the paints... While Isaac was at school he wanted to paint his wooden dinosaur! He's turning into such a little boy...
Isaac and his class had their first field trip this fall to a local dairy. He really liked feeding the baby calves! Charlie and I tagged along on the field trip!
It was a Big Day for Isaac. He looked forward to this field trip all week long...
We had such a good time at the Zoo! Charlie and Isaac loved every minute of it. They especially loved the carousel and going round and round! I am cherishing every minute we have as a family to grow together and to have these cherished moments....
Joe and I met each other on a blind date! Of course he was smitten and the rest is history! Happily married for almost thirteen years now! We are enjoying our days with our sweet kiddos, Isaac,
Charlie, Kimberly & Lucy..and life couldn't be better!
