Happy Fathers Day to my man. Wil is such a good dad. Our kids ADORE him. Ashlyn loves when she sees daddy, when he will lay by her at nap time, or play games with her...Zach loves to do what Daddy does, he loves to swim with Daddy, build things with him, and play video games with his daddy. Mady is so funny, she loves to play tricks on daddy and thinks that he is so funny. Daddy says who wants ice cream(or pretty much who wants whatever)...and mady goes um me and raises her hand. It's so funny! Wil is so good to us, he works very hard for our family and we appreciate him so much! He sacrifices a lot for us and I can't thank him enough. I love being able to stay home with him. This father's day week was insane...too much going on, so friday was a pretty kick back day in the morning and daddy got out a slip n slide and a kiddie pool. It was a lot of fun! Then on Saturday we had Zach's last T-ball game and a team party...then Saturday night we had a babysitter lined up and went with Wil's cousin and her hubby to Anaheim to watch the Angels vs. Dodgers game. It was a really good game...Go Dodgers!

Disneyland

Zach and Ashlyn chose to ride with Daddy on almost every ride...so it was me and Mady most of the day!

Mommy and Mady in the monkey cage...very fitting for my Mady Monkey!
Ashlyn thought that her purple horse went higher and faster than everyone elses horse.

Daddy took Zach and Ashlyn on the tea cups while I tried to get Mady to sleep, and he spun them so fast he had to help them walk out of the tea cups...later we all went on a tea cup and poor mady's head and eyes were rolling all over the place...Daddy's crazy!
After the Alice and Wonderland ride, the kids love to play by the little door that looks like it is in the movie...
Mady and Wil on Winnie the Pooh.

I was impressed that everyone was so good all day...so much fun to watch them play together.
Mady would stand up so I would get close to get a picture of her, and when I would squat to get a good picture...she would squat too...it was cute though!
Zach tried for a long time to open the fake doors in toontown.

Zach tried to sleep in pluto's bed...I think he likes his a lot better, he kept saying this is so hard!

Mommy and Mady before daddy made us dizzy on the teacups.
Fireworks were so much fun for Zach especially...
Ashlyn was waving...I asked her what she was waving at, she said I am just saying hi to Tinkerbell, she just waved at me...ha ha I love it!
After the fireworks were done and over with...



Wil and I took the kids to Disneyland yesterday and met up with an old friend of mine from elementary school, and her family. We all had so much fun. Our kids are pretty close to the same age, and really played well together...after the shyness wore off! We got to the park and were inside when it opened at 8 a.m., and left about 11:00 p.m. So lets just say the kids slept really hard last night! Thanks Jeri and Zac for inviting us to join you!

Big Helper

Mady is a BIG helper, she loves to help mommy and grandma do the laundry. My mom was folding a shirt and turned around to find Mady helping...she was taking every article of clothing out of the dryer 1 by 1 and throwing them on the floor.

Dirty...

Wil is working in Minnesota, and yesterday was a LONG day for him...Many hours of digging and manual labor! Sounds fun huh! This is what he looked like at the end of the shift. He kept telling me he was so dirty he looked half black...here's the proof! He works so hard for our family and we LUV him so much!

Happy Anniversary

Wil and I have been married for 7 years today. I have been so lucky to be married to my best friend all these years. He works so hard for our family. He is the best daddy you could ask for. I love you babe!

We are so proud of our Zachy man...he just graduated from Preschool. The graduation day got cancelled because of the weather, so while he was at preschool Jillian and I made cupcakes for the kids, and then after preschool my parents and I took all the kids to Pasco's pizza for a little celebration party. It was a good day after all. Zach is so excited to go to the knight helmet school...as he calls it!
