Over the months!

So I know I am a little behind on posting! I have been really busy with the kids sports and my classes right now have been harder due to the fact that I have had algebra for the last 9 weeks and just started my next nine weeks in the second part of the algebra. Math has always been a challenge for me so it takes me a long time for me to get my homework done each week. I am on the computer at least 4 hours a day doing my algebra homework it becomes very frustrating and overwhelming for me so I don't have a lot of time for much else. The kids finished with sports for a few months so we get a break from that! Cooper did great in his first year of football and he can't wait for it to start again. He watches football on TV with his dad all the time and I have found him upstairs watching it by himself he loves FOOTBALL!!! Hunter had a great year. This was his fourth year and he has improved each year it is so fun to watch him play! I am completely a football mom!! Hunter played at Autzen Stadium again and his team won which was awesome because they had several injuries on their team towards the end. Savannah played soccer and volleyball which she is good at too she gets in there and that is great! I wish there was a more advanced place for her to play that is close so that she could learn more. Thanksgiving we went up to Grants Pass where Rob's mom lives and we had Thanksgiving dinner at his Uncle's in Medford. It was nice to see them all and we enjoyed our time there. I was supper excited to have a new niece make her appearance on my birthday!! It will be awesome to share a birthday with Lydia each year because she is extremely special to our family! While in Medford I had Rob's Aunt take family pictures because we have not had any done in awhile I think Sierra was a baby last time. So here are some pictures from over the last couple months!!

Selena Gomez!

So for Savannah's birthday we got her tickets to see Selena Gomez! She came here to our state fair and Savannah was pretty excited! So here some pictures of the concert don't really have close ups of Selena my zoom lens is broken but there is a good one of Savannah when Selena comes out on the stage! Yes she is crying!! It was fun and we had a great time even though it was hot. Some of the pictures are sideways sorry but couldn't get them to rotate after downloading them ugh!! Savannah is singing and dancing away!!

My Project!!

So for awhile now I have been wanting to refinish our kitchen table and chairs! It needed it badly since this table and chairs are the ones Mom and Dad gave us and it was the same table and chairs we had growing up it has been well used! I live the table it is big enough for us but needed some freshen up. So I decided to start it today. So I am not all the way finished but wanted to share my pictures. I still need to do the chairs and figure out how to repair so of the chairs that have broken rails. I love how the table turned out and I am in love with it now!! Now the chairs as you can see I wanted to see what it would look like with black legs but I am gonna stick with white. I am not done so when it is complete I will post the finished pictures. But I am liking how it is looking.

Emerald Game

So I purchased a package for tickets to the Em's which is the baseball team here in Eugene. So Rob and the three oldest went to the game with him. The package was for four tickets on Groupon I love this new site I have gotten so pretty good deals from it! And they got to take a picture with the mascot and got to watch batting practice before the game. They were all pretty excited and had a lot fun! The kids also had cupcakes at the game and that is why their mouths are blue.

Beach in Florence

Here are a few pictures I took of the kids when we went to the beach the next day on our way home from camping. I didn't get to walk along the beach because of my foot it was way to hard and hurt to much. But I wanted some cute pics of the kids on the beach.

Camping at Sutton!

So the weekend after Savannah's birthday we went camping and tubing. We went camping at Sutton Campground out in Florence on the coast. We went with 8 other families and we had a blast. Two of the friends have boats and our friends Aunt lives at Mercer Lake which is a little private community that has their own lake. So we all got to go tubing and the kids got to try it for the first time. Sierra didn't of course but Sage didn't even want to try but Cooper did and he loved it. I even went tubing but didn't last long I ended up cutting my foot on the router of the boat and it hurt and is just now finally healing. I didn't have to get stitches but had to get a tetanus shot and had have it cleaned really good. The kids had a blast and we were pretty tired when we got home! I just remember my favorite memories of trips we took as a family and they were when we went camping so I want the kids to have those memories too! And camping is not as expensive as other trips so we can do that now!

Savannah's Birthday!

Savannah's birthday was July 19th and I had this whole treasure hunt planned out all based around Selena Gomez because she is coming to the State Fair here and we got her tickets to her concert for Savannah for her birthday! In the collage the big picture is where she opened her gift and saw the concert tickets! Needless to say my treasure hunt got ruined when I woke up that morning to make sure the time of the movie was the same and saw that the movie is no longer playing in the theater! I was so bummed! The treasure hunt at one point lead to taking her and her friend and Sage to see the movie Selena Gomez just came out with called Monte Carlo so my plans had to change so I ended up taking them to get manicures instead. So it all worked out and the treasure hunt ended at Cold Stone creamery where we met Grammy, Niki, Ethan, Tiffany, Adam, Brandi, Daniel and Gracie! It was fun and the cousins had fun playing in the courtyard area by the ice cream place!
