May

Playing a little blog catch up after a super busy May!
The boys surprised me with cake and presents for an early birthday celebration before our Arizona trip :)
I'm a lucky girl!

They also planned a surprise Mother's Day party for me when we got back from our trip complete with presents, streamers, cake, presents, and VERY excited boys!!!

Bryce and Max have so much fun together, they emptied out the toy box and climbed in together for their own little hang out.

Backyard Boys

With nice days few and far between lately, we all enjoyed some backyard fun in between rain showers.

Max Aiden loves to be BIG. He wants to climb and jump just like his brothers.



Blake has a blast pretending the club house is a pirate ship




Bryce digs and digs in the sand and plays trucks til it's time for bed




Max also likes his weed wacker and lawn mower, like most little boys, and takes his work very seriously.

Arizona Trip for Two

Tim and I left the kids with Mimi for 5 days while we went to Arizona for a little vacation. We stayed at my Grandpa's house in Gold Canyon, visited my Aunt and Cousins in Chandler and Scottsdale, spent one night at a Scottsdale resort, and went to Sedona for 2 days. We missed the boys like CRAZY, but had soooooo much fun!

Just Us

I honestly have no words to describe the unbelievable natural beauty in Sedona. We shopped in the picturesque town, ate on a balcony overlooking the mountains, and went on a 3 hour hike.Tim the tough guy holding up this rock ;) so I can get through



Gorgeous scenery

I had no idea I was in this picture when Tim took it, but it is my FAVORITE picture, not only because my butt looks good (KIDDING) but because it captures so much more than I can explain!


We spent an afternoon on Canyon Lake boating and wake boarding. So fun!!

This is Me


Sooo Pretty!
