My darling kids
There is really no reason to post these pics other than to show you all how adorable my kids are! We had these taken when McKoy was 7 weeks old. Even though he looks a lot older. Caselyn doesn't love to have her pic taken but she did pretty good. She loved to play with the flowers and the butterflies. I guess she has to have a prop to keep her entertained if we want any smiles out of her. Koy on the other hand is all smiles all the time so there is no fighting with him.
I can't believe she is THREE!
same day so we had a huge BBQ on friday for Brock and then an after party the next day at the salem pond. My mom surprised us and actually came down from Twin falls, ID to see us all. The last time we had seen her was the end of march so i was really excited that she made it. Caselyn got ridiculously spoiled, Brock got her a huge Barbie coloring book. Apparently He is trying to pass his artistic talents to her, it's worked, cause she has been coloring in it almost every night since she got it. She also got a really cute dollhouse that she loves to play with . Her favorite thing to do is put the mommy in the kitchen and cook "soup" for everyone. Aunt Ashley got her a chest with a bunch of dress up clothes in it and Caselyn went crazy she loves to wear pretty shoes and dresses, She is such a girly girl. She got some clothes and other little toys but nothing compares to the purple pontiac solstice battery operated car that her Grandpa Danny got her. It has pictures of the disney princesses on the doors and plays real radio stations. She likes to sit in it, but is a little scared to drive it. We took it over to Marlys and Duanes(Caseys aunt and uncle) So that she could play with her little cousins. She just let them drive her around in it and loved every mintue of.

The happiest place on earth
During the first week of June we went with Casey's entire family to California. There were about 37 people in our group and it was so much fun! All of his aunts and uncles and most of his cousins were there. The first night we all went to the beach and had a bonfire and roasted hot dogs, it was pretty cold. Caselyn had blast building sand castles with her cousins that she doesn't get to play with very often. Then we went into disneyland and she loved it. I was so surprised at how excited she got. Her favorite ride was the teacups. She wanted to ride everything. She was so upset when she could not go on the screamin over california roller coaster. She was crying and said "I am big enough, I already measured" I don't know were she got that from cause I hate roller coasters! The whole week Casey's brothers(Cory mostly) were trying to get me to go on Screamin, and finally the last night we had in the park Casey and all his brotheres dragged me on it. i was terrified and had my eyes squeezed shut the whole time, so I didn't see anything, but i think I liked it. That was a huge acomplishment for me. It was a little difficult with McKoy cause there was only a couple rides we could take him on. He really liked pirates of the caribean though, his eyes were opened so big like he was trying to look at everyhting all at once. We had to take turn going on rides because someone always needed to stay off to watch Koy. He attracted so many people it was hard to get anywhere because they would stop and talk to him and gush over his smile and his dimples. We also went to Knottsberry Farm, which was fun but very crowded. There was a school district field trip and the park was filled with Jr. high students. And it was way dirty compared to Disneyland. On thursday night we went to a Dodgers vs. Cubs game. It was awesome even though the dodgers lost. We got some really cute pics of the kids with the field behind them. It was so great to be able to spend a whole relaxing week with family, but it was ended to early and we all had to come back to our jobs and reality. Caselyn will still ask me if we can go back to california so that she can swim in the pool and be a mermaid.
Blog Fever
Well, it's official... I have been diagnosed with blog fever! I figured that since my mom lives so far away from me right now I would make it easy for her to stay caught up on her grandkids. I have lots of other relatives who live outside of happy valley so all you guys I dedicate my blog to you! Thanks for reading....
