The Dinosaur Museum!!

A couple of weeks ago we went to the Dinosaur museum!!! It was lots of fun!! The girls had lots of fun with the hands on parts. They didn't really care for the other informative areas....so we dragged out the hands on areas as long as possible!!! :) The girls and I in a cave....the girls were too scared to go in by themselves, so naturally I had to go in too!! hahahaha!!
O, Ellie, K, and Payten all being paleontologists!!!

This was the best area of the museum (for kids that is). They were making there own dinosaur museum!!

Their scary faces!!!

Their cute faces!

My Poor Dad

A few weeks ago my Dad had back surgery. I just wanted to update everyone and let you all know that he is doing really well! He is in a lot of pain, but that was to be expected. Get better fast Dad!! We love you!

This is a picture of his back. The incision is about 5 inches long!!! EWWWWWW!!!! Poor Dad!!!

Happy Father's Day!

I just wanted to wish Bryce, and every other dad, daddy to be out there, that read this blog, a Happy Father's Day!

Bryce is the best daddy ever!! I have always thought Bryce was the best, but this year has been particularly eye opening. In Feb. I had my unexpected surgery. The very next day was Oakley's birthday party. I thought about canceling it, knowing I could not host it. Bryce insisted that he do it. I thought at the moment that it would be fine, I'd be able to sit on the couch and kind of help, but when the kids started to come, all the commotion made me sick. I started to throw up!! I had no choice but to go to my room! I could hear Bryce handling the party without me. He did an awesome job! I just sat there listening and laughing!
This May we went to Disneyland, Bryce was all over it!! He was all about the girls, and making sure they had a great time. Anytime they asked him to jump, he'd ask how high?! He made sure they saw everyone of the princesses they wanted to see, and went on every ride they wanted to ride!
The beginning of this month, we had a few dance recitals. The girls performed at the Sandy Amphitheatre. Well, the weather did not agree with our plans and down poured on us every time. Each time, the girls and I would stay covered while Bryce would run for the car. Once he brought the car to us, he took both girls in his arms and rushed them to the car so they wouldn't have to get wet at all! (Super cute)

These are just some of the reasons that make you the best!
I hope you have a great day honey!! Thanks for all you do!! I love you,

-Britt

Bryce doesn't complain at all about the girly things he has to do!! hahaha

Handmade FUN!!

I saw this on my friends blog and thought it was a fun idea. So... The first FIVE people to respond to this post will get something made by me! For you. This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:

1- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!

2- What I create will be just for you.

3- It'll be done this year. (might be a little while)

4- You have no clue what it's going to be. It may be a story. It may be a joke book, autographed picture of myself, handmade bag, or a little invention of my own! I may create you a blog header or paint something for you with my food. (That would be scary). I may bake you something and mail it to you. Who knows?

5- I reserve the right to do something extremely strange. Believe me.... it may blow your mind!


So let's play!!!

Happy Birthday Carie!!!

Tonight we went out for Carie's birthday....we had so much fun!! (to say the least!) First, we took Carie to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. We talked and laughed so much, it was great. They made Carie get up on the birthday saddle and we all gave her a Texas yee haw!!! hahaha!! Carie on the saddle!!!!

K's Kindergarten Graduation!

Where has the time gone? It seems like only yesterday I was dropping her off and crying!! Now I'm picking her up and crying because she is going to be home with me all summer!!! Just kidding!! I did get a little choked up.....I really can't believe how fast this year has gone.

For her graduation, they had a little fashion show. The kids were supposed to wear their favorite outfit, costume, dress-up, etc. K chose her dance costume. She looked so adorable up there on stage!! They did the fashion show then sang songs about the school year and the friends they made. After their songs, the teacher showed a slide show...That is where I started to cry! They had the song "Let Them Be Little" by Trace Atkins....It is a real tear jerker!

Last weekend we went camping! It was a last minute camping trip. My Dad had to have back surgery this week. This trip was the last trip of the summer for him. (POOR DAD) We always have fun camping with Grandma and Grandpa!! The rest of my family was there too! Everyone but Bryn. (we missed you Bryn!)

Dance Dance Baby!!!

We have had quit the eventful dance week at our house! Last Monday, the girls had their dance recital at the Sandy Amphitheater. It was going great until mother nature decided to unleash her furry on us! It poured rain like I've never seen before! Oakley did one of her dances and they were just about to put K on stage when they decided to cancel the performance!!

Later in the week the girls performed at the Riverton Arts Festival. That one wasn't too bad, it was really windy and there was tons of dust in the air, but the girls pulled through and danced their hearts out!! They did awesome!!!! This last Tuesday was the rescheduled dance recital. Again Mother Nature was not in agreeance, but the show had to go on!! The girls did such a great job again! I just love these girls, they are just to darn cute!!! I actually didn't mind getting them ready three different times. I loved doing their hair and makeup and glitter!! They loved it too!! All I can say is, "Bryce better have his guns ready when these girls turn 16!"

O striking a pose!

Warning**** Picture Overload****

What do you do when you have such adorable kids? Let me tell you because I know! You take LOTS and LOTS of pictures!!! hahaha! The pictures are in backwards order! Let me start from the beginning.....We arrived in CA on Sunday May 17th. We got there, checked in and put the girls down right off. As we were tucking them in, all of the sudden or building started to sway......We were in a 5.O earthquake!!! Crazy huh? I was hoping this was not a sign of a bad trip ahead of us! It wasn't, we had a blast!! Monday and Tuesday we went to Disneyland. Wednesday, we went to Newport Beach. Thursday, we hit SeaWorld. Friday, we were back at Disneyland. Saturday, we drove home. Now I want to do it all over again!! :)Cutest little rear ends you will ever see!!! One of my very favorite things.. Little bum cheeks hanging out of swimming suits!! :)

We took the girls to the M&M store and then to see the water show at the Bellagio. Then down to the Volcano at the Mirage. They loved it too! That was all we had time to do because we needed to get on to Disneyland!
