Warning long post....A fun Friday!

Friday, Clint wanted to spend some extra time with the kids, So we played hookie from school.:) We loaded up the bikes, packed a lunch and headed down to the Buckley property. It was a great time. The kids felt so special!

Look who is 30~ Wow!

I can't believe that I am 30. I always thought that sounded so old...and now I am there. I still feel young.:) I had a wonderful lunch with My Mom in law, Sue, Erica and the kids. Thanks ladies! It was defiantly a different birthday for me, since it fell on a Wednesday Clint was not home. It was sad, to not only me, but the kids. They sang Happy Birthday to me that night, and when I looked up the girls had big tears in their eyes. They said "It is just not the same with out Dad." It broke my heart. I was so excited to wake up on Thursday...I told my kids we will just pretend my special day is Thursday.
My sister and her kids came to celebrate. We had a slumber party. She made me a cake and spoiled me with way to many presents. Thanks Sis! And the best part Clint was home to join in!

My cute husband was so sweet. He planned a birthday party for me on Saturday night at the park. It was a wonderful BBQ with so many people I love so much! I felt so loved! He has never done something like that before. Thank you to all of you...You made my birthday special.

Thanks Clint ...You really out did yourself, you sure made up for being gone on Wednesday.:) Thanks Powers family, Diddys, Lawsons, Abenroths, J and L Rodarte, Dad and Aurora Thomas and Sarah and Khylee. I love you all so much!!

Just call me a slacker....

I haven't been on the computer as much a usual lately. I don't feel like we have been up to much. But here are some random pictures from the last 2 weeks. We had a great spring break, I love when the kids are home with me.

Tiny Newborn Lane moved on to a big boy bike. He went all the way around the block the first time on it. Good job Lane!

We went and spent 2 nights down in Oregon with Clint on our break. The kids love it down there. It is kinda like staying in a hotel, and our kids love that. The weather was awful, so no fun outdoor activities.:( But it was still a good time.

This was a lunch at McDonald's ( they have a huge play zone).

Clint worked out at his Dad's this past weekend. He is getting ready to build a barn, so falling trees , clearing and digging out for the foundation.

He had a big helper....Until he pooped out.

Clint and his Dad....The older Clint gets the more he is just like him. They act and talk the exact same. ( Check them out...even stand the same)

Clint's Dad's cow had her baby. The kids got a kick out of it. She is so tiny. Here she is 48 hours old.

My girls having a photo shoot. They crack me up!


The whole group...We all just got done spreading seed on the hillside, taking a little break.

I just thought I would throw this in. Why do I keep all the yummy treats up high? Even my newborn can get to them now.:)
