Yard Sale finds!!

We don't normally go looking at yard sales. You just have to get up way too early on a Saturday to get the good stuff and you usually have to drive all over the place to find them. So, I love it when Community yard sales come up. A few months ago Aliante had a group yard sale and the very next week Eldorado did theirs. They are great because there are so many all in the same area and we found some great buys!!

We got the big picture in the middle for a steal!!! It's hard to see because of the glare but it's a picture of jazz musicians playing for a crowd. Travis saw this picture and had to have it! Usually they are like $100 or more especially with how big it was but we got it for so cheap!! This is in 'his' loft:) The smaller pic on the right is a man playing trumpet. I think the wall looks nice.

We also found these framed pics for super cheap. Trav then found an inexpensive mirror at Ross and tada.....we have a pretty, new wall in our front room! I love how it turned out!!

We also found a dog bed for Mahler for only $3, two booster chairs for $7, shoes for little man for $1 and a really nice stroller for $15 that I use ALL of the time!!! It's like my nice big one in a miniature version. It's nice that it's not as big but that I have storage and drink trays that I don't get with an umbrella stroller......Score!! We haven't gone out since but we probably will when they have those big community ones again:)

New pics

Kiddie Kandids opened back up and since I always got the kids' birthday pics there, I thought I would swing in and get Jordyn's done. It's a couple of months late but at least I got it!! And since I was there, I figured I would get a pic of little man done as well:) They are so cute!!

Some pics from my phone:)

I was just reminded of a photo I took on my phone awhile ago while at the park. Jordyn had some crazy hair and I just had to take a pic. Thankfully my sis e-mailed it to me because I can't get them off my phone otherwise. She is such a cutie!! And she is also doing better. I took her to the docs again today and she said she was doing a million times better. She is still hacking like crazy but she is moving air better and she looks better than she did two days ago. For some weird reason though, she is a lot more clingy today than she had been the last two days. She wouldn't let me out of her sight...not even to pee:) And I guess she was closer to going to the hospital than I thought. The doc said she almost sent us! It's a good thing that Jordyn has gotten used to the breathing treatments and sits without too much of a fuss.
Crazy hair!!

And this is my wild Kenna back in July at Pioneer Days. I am on the Activities committee and we were in charge of the water rides so she got to ride as many times as she wanted to. That's the perk for having to work them, right??? She had such a great time!!

I'm going to have to have my sis e-mail me more of my pics! These were cute.

Makenna's Birthday Week, Day 1

I was thinking about Makenna's birthday post and looking at pictures that I wanted to post. There are just way too many cute pictures and there is no way to post them all in one day so I decided to post pics of my beauty throughout the week. I thought I would start it off with pics of when she was a newbie.

Happy family;)

I love this picture!

Makenna is about a week old here. She's laying on my dad.

Makenna and daddy catching some z's on the nice warm towels from the dryer.

This was her blessing day.

She is so beautiful;)

Disneyland part 3

We love going to Disneyland at Christmas time. It is so beautifully decorated and these pictures won't do it justice. You might have to click on a couple of them to make them larger so you can see better.

This is how Jordyn spent most of her first time at Disneyland. She was such a good girl.

Makenna and her Christmas Tigger hat.

This was so pretty. We want lights like these to put on our house:)



This was Makenna's favorite ride. She has the biggest grin on her face.

Disneyland was so much fun with Makenna this year. I can't wait until Jordyn is old enough to enjoy it and we can experience it through her eyes as well.

Disneyland part 2

More of our pics from Disneyland. These are the best ones from the parade.

We were waiting for the parade to start and we were right by the castle so we decided to get a picture when there wasn't too many people walking by.

I, of course, had to get a picture of the soldiers and their trumpets!! I could see Travis doing a job like this while he was going to school if he lived there.

This is the best picture I could get of Cinderella. They were dancing and the other ones were blurry.

A great pic of Santa. I took it just at the right time.

And this is Makenna staring, in awe, at Santa. Too cute!!

My adorable girls

I just wanted to share these adorable pics that I took recently. I must say that I have some cute girls.

Makenna is funny because I asked her to stand in front of the bookshelf to take her picture and she stood facing it. I asked her to turn around and she did this turn of the head pose. She does this almost every time I ask to take her picture now. She's my little model.


Ahhh...sister love


I had Jordyn all bundled up for our walk and she looked so cute that I had to take her picture. You would think I would lose weight since I carry 14 pounds of cuteness with me for an hour each day.


And this is after church on Sunday. That is a six month dress on my 2 1/2 month old!!! Gotta love the thighs.
