Fun at home!

We are blessed to have a home where our kids can play and have fun

Dante's improvised train

Kaysee re-charging batteries to go out again

Kaylee & Me preparing dinner

my little compañerita (girlfriend)

Alondra, Dante & Dionka playing in the back yard

dirt and a truck makes it fun

2 trucks and a bus are even better

2 trucks, a bus and Thomas the train! What can I say?

(you guys know I need pictures!)

we don't need to eat all the dirt, apples and tomatoes!

we can haul them too!

Besides eating a whole lot of dirt (oh well, that's what we do when we are kids--high five!) I think Dionka really enjoyed playing with her siblings

Kaylee & Kaysee's Baptism

I can't express all the emotions I had during the girls' baptism.

 I believe in God, the Eternal Father and in His Son Jesus Christ. I am immensely blessed to know that through Jesus' sacrifice and by our diligence in following His commandments we can enjoy true happiness here on earth and someday this happiness will be eternal when we are back to their presence.  It gives me peace to  know that my children will always be my children and that Kam and I will be husband and wife even after death. I know with every fiber of my heart that I am loved by God, that He cares about me, and that I am not alone. It might not be easy but, it is really worth it! 

Kaylee, Kaysee, Daddy & uncle Kip

thank you uncle Kip for helping with Kaylee's baptism

hi Kaylee! Wait, you are suppose to be paying attention. You too uncle Kip! 

Hollywood Connection Adventure

Oh man that I had a good time skating! So bad the kids couldn't keep up with me.

Kaysee fell

Saydee and Alondra fell too

and they fell again

and again...

that one hurted!

trying to stand up

while Kaysee crawled out....Ethan also fell

and they kept falling over and over but, I was flying low

 

they took the tour bus

and we went to the Crazy Cars

we did the crazy cars 6 times

but the funnest of all: the roller coaster

Alondra sat by me, thank goodness!

Are you ready to laugh??? Check it out!

No, I Don't like roller coasters!!!!

Alondra the gymnast

Alondra is really enjoying her gymnastic days (...and so do I )

WHAT??!!!! (this pose surprised me)

I didn't know she knew to pose!

now with her hair done and ready to go

getting some help from her coach

good job!

she really loves to hang on the bars

she is going to have a 6 pack

trampoline! ooohhoooo!!

I'm so proud of her!

Jacob's Eagle Scout Court of Honor

Our first Eagle Scout: Jacob N Howell, we are so proud of him!

It was an honor to be part of his accomplishment, I was literally in tears and I had to keep breathing hard to stop the whining. I can't imagine what it will happened when is Dante's turn!

Jacob with Howell Grandparents and his parents. Look all those patches!

proud parents Leo and Martie

handing over his project

Getting a huge hug from his uncle Kam and cousin Alondra, Congratulations!

welcome to the NEST!

with his Eagle uncle Wilbur

Play time

Boy that we have a good time playing with friends!

Somehow Alondra thinks that carrying her "car" is easier than riding it

but, she "is tired" and carrying is better

my Bam-Bam Flintstones

 he doesn't pedal at all but moves really fast

Alondra loves pushing her baby sister (I don't know how she can run shoeless on the road, ouch!)

she keeps her sister happy

going for a walk is also as fun

Dionka laughing
