Weekend Getaway with Friends!

Every once in a while you just need to get away and have some adult time when you have kiddos!  So we decided to do just that with some good friends, Ramon and Rainnie Neufeld.  We went to Dallas for the weekend last month and it was just what we needed!  It also happened to be the Neufelds 5 year anniversary so we got to celebrate with them!  Here are some pics from our weekend:

We started with a Ranger game!  It was really HOT but lots of fun!  We even stayed for the fireworks show at the end!

We will have our 5 yr anniversary in November!!

The girls!

Sweet couple!

We had dinner, drinks, and dancing at the top of the Anatole in Dallas!  Fun Times!

Love my friend!   

We are going to make this a yearly trip!  Can't wait for next year!

Happy Daddy's Day Eric!!

I think that I have married the BEST daddy there could ever be for my kids!!  I don't always say it enough but I couldn't have done better!!  Thank you for loving us and taking such good care of us all the time!!

Here are some of my favorite pics of Eric being a daddy!

First time to see Gunner!  Love the look on his face!

Everyday when Eric gets home from work, Gunner wants to go for a "ride" and Eric always takes him!  Even in the 100 degree weather!

Eric's 1st Father's day-  June 2008

1st picture with his princess!!  He even wore pink for her that day!

Proud daddy!

On this day I told Eric to come to Gunner's pre-school Christmas party eventhough he was the only dad there!  He didn't care though!  Such a good sport!

Happy Father's Day!  We love you!! 

Charli Turns 1!!!

Well it's here!!  Monday Charli will be turning ONE and I can't believe it has already been a year!  The past year has flown by!!  Everyone always says to enjoy your kids while they are young because it goes by so fast, well I AGREE!!  We had Charli's b-day party on Sunday so that most of her family could be there!  Here are some photos of the party:

Okay I'm a HORRIBLE blogger!!

It's been since OCTOBER since I have last blogged!!  Give me a break I have been busy!!  Lots has changed and the kids both have changed A LOT!! 

So I will start here...

Gunner turned 3 in February!  He just HAD to have his b-day party at Chuck E Cheese and he loved it but it was pretty chaotic!!  Here are a few pics:



Charli has absolutely stolen ALL of our hearts especially her BIG brother!!  He loves her so much!  Sometimes a little too much!  She will be 1 in less than a month and I'm really struggling with this!  Her 1st year has flown by and my baby is crawling everywhere and pulling up on everything!  It won't be long and she will be taking those first steps! 

Charli at her cousin RyRy's b-day party...She did NOT like the water!

Here are the kids Easter pics:

Other exciting news is that my little brother Tanner is getting married next weekend!  All of us are in the wedding so I will post pics of that next week!!  Here is a pic of him and his beautiful fiance Anna:

Wrapping it up here is a picture of myself with my brother and sister at Tanner's Tool Shower.  It has been a long time since we were caught in a picture together!!

I will TRY to be better at this blogging thing!!
