@*@*@*@*@*@ THANK YOU @*@*@*@*@*@

I HAVE TO GIVE A BIG THANK YOU TO BRITTANY AND JASON..
WHO WERE BRAVE ENOUGH TO KEEP THE KIDS 3 DAYS WHILE I WENT TO VEGAS...
They kept the kids even though they had/was getting over the flu. She had the kids all day while Jason was at work and I am sure it was crazy over there with 2 babies and 4 extra kids running around.. But when I showed up after three days she still had a smile on her face..
The kids had a blast and she made it easier for me to leave the kids (i have never left them anywhere) she is the best sis-in-law I could ask for
Thank you guys so much..
I owe you big time...
Just let me know




!!!!!!!!!!!!!! VEGAS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We went to vegas for Kayla's 21st birthday

It was just us girls... Me kayla and our mom.Kayla messing around 10 minutes into the car ride




5 minutes after that she was fast asleep, for the rest of the way.




Once we got there the first thing we did was get an "aqua massage" man it felt so good...
Kayla laughed through the whole thing.. I guess it tickled

wating for our Prime rib... Man was that good!

Kayla won big in Vegas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


at virtual jump rope!!!!


And me.....................


Not so much :(


Her big winnings.....


getting ready at 2am to go gamble....
She just turned 21!!!


Dressed and ready to go!!!

Let the Gambling begin!!!
We gambled for a few hours (like 6) then moved on to the next hotel

Casino hopping



After seeing our Chirs Angel "mindfreak" show!!



Driving back to the hotel..



Kayla trying to win big...

NO LUCK
And finally... I won.... I had been losing all day.. I lost like 2 dollars.. so we got free 10 bucks from the casino (30.00 in total) and I won 13.75 I thought it was pretty good considering I was playing the penny machines...

Family field trip

When there is a break from school I like to take the kids places so we can get out of the house... and I love FREE....
So we took a trip to the Nature walk.



Here are the kids looking down the trail at a bunny...



Isaiah found a stick in the shape of a "Z" for ZAE!!
What a smart boy!

There was a neat log.. Where we stopped to drink some juice boxes and .....

Pee!

Yes, I let the kids pee outside, they really had to go..

I love this pic with all the kids from oldest to youngest... so cute..
Me and all the kids... what a fun day... We walked for like 2 hours. I cant wait for it to stay hot... we will be going here alot in the summer.
I cant be any "whiter" compared to those nicely tanned kids!

JOG-A-THON

Gavin had a jog-a-thon at school so we all took a little field trip to his school to watch him run (jog)


There he is with his class waiting for them to blow the whistle

running past...
I told him to wear shorts and stuff by the way... but he likes to wear long sleeves and pants... (everyday) so he was a little hot... He said to me when he was done.. " I wore long sleeves and my head isn't even as sweaty as the other kids."

Isaiah is 5!!

I can't believe how time has gone by... Baby #2 will be starting Kindergarten next sept.
Just wanted to say a few things about Isaiah...
He is the second oldest of 5 siblings.
he always thinks about his brothers and sisters
he is in his own world alot of the time (that usually makes him the quietest one)
he is my picky eater, and my sensitive one..
he loves the "small" stuff.

Isaiah with his birthday hat from school..


We had a small get-together for his birthday.

I love you Isaiah and cant wait to see what the next few years will bring.

1st haircut!!!

You all may be thinking Makai, but that kid is as bald as can be....poor baby! MY baby Zae got his first haircut, 5 whole years and not one hair cut...

So here is the
before....I loved his long hair, but I also hated it... He never wanted to brush it..



There is all his hair... OH MY GOSH it was ALOT!!
if you pulled his hair straight it almost touched his butt.



Here he is after.... He looks like Gavin's twin.... I cant believe how different he looks with short hair definitely still a cutie!
