What we've been up to this year

Since there is such a gap in my blog from last year to this year, I thought I would post some pics of the things that we have done and been up to.  Keep in mind these are my phone pics.  Not the best quality but so thankful that my phone has a camera on it.  :)

Jesse played baseball and also got braces put on.  Emma played t-ball but I don't have a picture at the moment.

Dan and I were able to go to Vegas for a weekend with some good friends!  It was awesome!!!  We saw Ray Ramono!  :) 

This was a kids meal that Jesse ordered at Silver Mt.  Who puts 3 cheeseburgers on a kids meal!?  Of course Jesse thought this was AWESOME!  :)  They were supposed to be mini burgers but they weren't quite mini, not as big as a regular, but big enough that he could only eat 2.  

We celebrated Gracie's 11th birthday at the local pool with family and then she had a friend that lives out of town stay the night with her as well.  She's growing up sooo fast!  :(

This is the first time that I've gotten all 3 kids in a picture in a really long time.  Jesse hates having his picture taken.  I mean seriously hates it!  So this is far from great but I will take it!

Jesse got his first dirt bike and him and his cousin have been putting on the miles riding around together.  I love that we live close enough that they just drive across the hayfield to go play. 

He has also learned to fish.  Since neither Dan or I are fishermen his older cousin Austin has been teaching him lots and Jesse is just soaking it up.

 My Love!

 Emma and I

Emma has lost her first tooth and has gotten her ears pierced.  She is feeling like a big girl, especially with Kindergarten starting in a couple of weeks.

Well, there is a run through of some of the things that we've been up to.  There are way too many to put in one post.  I will post another time about our trip down to Palm Springs to visit Dan's parents.
