Happy Anniversary

Happy Anniversary to my wonderful hubby of 7 years!!!!  I cant imagine what my life would be like without him.  He loves me whole heartedly, takes care of me and always tries to give me my hearts desires.  I sometimes take him for granted and forget how good I have it.  He is a push over when it comes to me most of the time and I tend to get what I want and I have to say I am the same way for him!  We cant believe it has already been seven years.  Life has completely changed over the last seven years but we love where life has taken us.  Marriage is definitely work but this is one job I will never leave!  The more our story unfolds, the happier I am that we chose each other to live, love and laugh with!  The more our story unfolds, the more I fall in love with him!  Happy Anniversary baby!

A special third birthday for a special boy

Eli turned three a few weeks ago and Aiden thoroughly enjoyed the party at putt n jump.  All of Aiden's best buddies were there and they always have a great time with each other.  They do seem to become more curious when they are with each other and braver to explore their curiosity together.  Thanks Eli for inviting us to such a fun party!

New Camera

I know I haven't blogged much lately and without a camera posts tend to be nothing but stories and most people just like to see the pics any way.  So thankfully my husband was kind enough to let me buy my third yes third camera in 5 months.  I know people letting me use your camera is a scary thing but I did manage to have a really good run with one for almost three years.  My husband is hoping that my camera disasters that come in threes are over and he hopes the same thing for my mess ups with my car as well.  So now back to blogging and hopefully can catch you all up on all our summer fun!

The birthday video

It wouldnt post last night so here it is!

 Birthday Pics and video!  I know most you know that Aiden's third birthday party was a success but I thought I would post a few of the pics I have.  I dont have all too many pics of him riding any of the rides because Shaun had his camera and took bunches of pics of them riding all the rides so when I get some of those I will post more.  Thank you to everyone who came and made his third birthday so memorable!  Thank you to my Aunt who made his adorable "cars" cake! This was probably the birthday party I have enjoyed the most.  I loved watching how much fun Aiden had!  He was constantly smiling and laughing and birthday parties dont get much better than that!  I cant believe he is three!  He seems so big to me now.  I absolutely love and adore my "baby" boy!

My birthday boys

There is a reason these two birthday's being so close togeher is so fitting.  They are best buddies.  Although Aiden might name some of his other friends before naming his daddy as his best friend, he hates to go any where without his daddy.  Having both of their birthdays at the same time always makes for a crazy couple of days but they are always fun filled days. 

 Last night we went down to OKC to go eat at bricktown and take the river walk ride.  Aiden thought it was great fun.  Of course we ate at Chellinos but this time we got to eat on the patio and it was a beautiful night to sit out on the river walk and enjoy some yummy mexican food.  We got home rather late and were so tired.  Aiden was so excited when he woke up this morning because to him "his birthday was coming!"  He got me up and said "Mommy I not tired anymore because my birthday is coming"  to which I replied "Oh Baby your birthday is here!"  Excitedly he ran out of my room and went looking throughout the house.  He came back a little sad and expressed "my birthday is not here, I cant find it"  That is when I had to explain that his birthday was not something he could hold or see it was a day.  We took Aiden out for donuts this morning and sang at the donut shop to him!  We will be headed to the kiddie park to celebrate with all our family and friends in just a few hours!  We are so excited to see how much fun he has!

Here is my birthday wish to my wonderful husband.  I love you so much Todd and at times forget how blessed I am to have the greatest husband in the world.  You are such a Godly man and an amazing father to our beautiful son.  Every time I see you with him, I smile and thank God for how blessed I am.  I pray that this year will be filled with love, respect, fulfillment, and blessings.  I pray that I will be a better wife to you to show you how blessed I truly am to have you as my husband.  May you always have laughter, hope, and all your dreams come true.  May your headaches go away for good, may your son always know how much you love him, may our parents love the wonderful man you are, may you win a state championship, may the freshman not stress you out, and may you get to play many rounds of golf this year!!!! (yes that is me giving my blessing to play as much as you want!)  I love you with all my heart!

Now my birthday wish to my love, my Aiden.  To my baby boy may this year bring you many blessings.  May you know how much your mommy and daddy love you and what a blessing you are to us.  There isnt a day that goes bye that mommy and daddy dont thank God for blessing us with you!  May you have many fun times with all your friends.  May you get to run on the golf course, may you ride your four wheeler as much as you want, May you laugh everyday and continue in your child like innocence.  May you know how much you mean to all your family and friends.  May you know what a special boy you are to me and how I love to watch you learn and grow.  I pray that this year I will be an even better mommy to you.  I am amazed at everything you can do now.  I know you will only continue to impress me with all that you can do and will learn to do over the next year.  I will always cherish the memories of you as a child and you give me plenty everyday to be so proud of the rest of my life!  I love you baby boy!

Reunion part 2

Here are just a few pics from the final night of my 10 year reunion....man do I feel old!

Reunion night 1

So tonight was the first event of my 10 year reunion.  It seems so crazy that 10 years have already gone bye.  In a way it feels so long ago but it also seems like just yesterday we were always having so much fun without a care in the world except for what our plans were for friday night.  

Stacy, Angela, Gabby and I all went to in the raw before we headed over to the Full Moon for the reunion.  I had so much fun at in the raw and my sushi was awesome and so was stacy's!  With every thing that I have been dealing with lately I desperately needed a night where I could just go cut up and have fun and not think about anything.  That is exactly what I did.  Sad to say that some people from my high school thought I was drunk when I was in no way shape or form drunk.  Sometimes its just fun to cut up and not care what any one thinks of you.  Stacy had the bright idea that since we couldnt dance at the full moon we should head over to the caravan and do some line dancing.  I havent done that in years so I was game! Some of us headed over there and waited for line dances!  I knew like the first two but then after that I was just making up moves as I went along.  It was a lot of fun and brought back a lot of memories of all the fun times we have had.  Stacy and I were kinda hungry as we were leaving the caravan so we decided to hit Whataburger.  Sadly it tasted really good!  I guess line dancing even if you dont know what you are doing is a good workout and makes you hungry to where anything will taste good!  I did have a great evening with some great friends.  I am so thankful to have all my friends in my life.  I was so happy that Angela decided to come because I hardly ever get to see her.  Then there is Stacy and what cracks me up about our friendship is that no one in high school would have ever guessed that if out of our group of friends that we would be the ones to not only keep in touch but talk to each other every day for the last 10 years!  She is the greatest friend and I love her dearly.  It doesnt matter what we do together from hanging out, to going to hobby lobby or going out to eat together we always laugh and have the best time!  I really needed tonight!  Thanks girls!

Kiddie Park round 1

The kiddie Park is probably one of my most favorite places to take Aiden.  For so many reasons:  I love the fact that as a child myself I can remember going to the kiddie park with my mom and dad.  We have pictures of me riding in the same car that now Aiden has ridden in.  I think that is pretty neat.  Also it is so stinking cheap that Aiden can ride all night long for less than $5 yes people less than $5.  Most of the rides are 25 cents a ride and you just cant beat that.  Plus its not like the fair where it is so crowded and not a lot for him to do, the entire park is centered around rides for small children.  Another thing is to watch how much fun Aiden has wether we go by ourselves, with family or with his buddies, he just smiles and laughs all night long.  For me there is no greater joy than seeing and hearing my child laugh!  Its my favorite part of being a mom!  Cant wait to go back again.  I think this summer there will be many trips to the Kiddie Park!

Wrestling

Aiden and Parker I think since being together everyday during the school year get a little tired of each other at the end of the day and start taking it out on each other.  So they have learned how to wrestle each other.  I know the dads have helped in this matter because one of Aidens favorite things to do with his daddy is wrestle.  It seems any more Aiden asks Todd about 10 times a day "Daddy will you wrestle me?"  I know Shaun is the same way with Parker so the boys had a little help.  The other night once we all came in from the cook out the boys decided it was time to wrestle.  These boys weren't being easy on each other either.  I was amazed at three years old how rough they are and it doesnt bother them at all.  Crazy kiddos but they sure had fun.
