swimming!!!

For the past 2 weeks janae has been doing swim lessons at the ymca. Today was the last day and I decided that i would take some pics to show everyone. At first Janae was a little shy and although she cried a couple times she always went ahead and did what she needed to do. She really did well and is much more comfortable in the water. We told Janae that if she passed swimming lessons she could do dance in August when she turns 4, so it looks like our bribe worked!


Today they learned about emergencies and how to float in a lifevest.

Janar loved to float around on this and kick like crazy.

Janae really liked her teacher especially since her name was Jenni.

Here is her report card and her lollipop. On the comments it said, "Janae is timid at first but a very attentive listener and excited student. I wish more kids were as bright as she is when she is swimming." I thought that this was so nice and Janae was so proud.

Here are the 3 kids playing together in the pool.
Janae is such a poser.
Jaz is crazy in the water and freaks people out when she dives under and swims up. I frequently have to tell people "she'll come up" because they think she is drowning. She is little but is becoming quite a swimmer.
Jaydon was giving Jazlynn horsey rides- he is a great big brother.
Two cutie pies!

Father's Day!!

This Father's Day we went to Jared's parents house after church. We had a great dinner and swam for along time. The kids and I made Jared breakfast in bed and the night before we took him to the mall to pick out some new shoes (jaydon's idea). All in all it was a nice day- I just want to wish ALL the Father's out there a very hapy day. I miss my Dad and can't wait to see him.

pretty toes

Last night a bunch of girlfriends and i dropped off our kids at the YMCA and decided to go get pedicures! I think this is only the third pedicure in my life so it is a real treat. After we got our toes done we met our hubbies for dinner. It was nice to have some girl time and get to spend time with the guys. I hope we get to do it again soon!


I also bought a toe ring at a party my friend Lyndsee had and for the first time I must say that I think my feet might just actually look pretty!!!

Busy Mornings!!

The next 2 weeks are pretty crazy with swimming. Every morning Jaydon swims from 8:30-9:30 and for the next 2 weeks Janae has swim lessons at 11:05! So we pretty much spend the entire morning at 2 pools. The kids have been a little tired the past 2 days but today they all came home and went straight to sleep- all on their own!
I guess I have been pretty successful at wearing them out!



I will post some pictures of them swimming later- but aren't they soooo cute when they are asleep??

9 years and counting!!!

Happy 9 Year Anniversay!!!

Well- today officially marks our 9 year wedding anniversay. On June 5, 1999 we were married in Camp Meeker California. Sometimes it seems like it was just yesterday, others it seems like forever ago.I would post a wedding picture but that was pre-digital (ha). Here's to many many more years! I Love You Jared.
