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!

Catching up!!

So I am a little behind on posting so I thought I would take some time today and catch up! Tiffany showed a site called PicNic that Jessie showed her when she was in Canada for Grandpa's funeral and I love it and makes it so much easier and not have to download a bunch of individual pictures so I have a lot of collage pictures to share! So I will get started! I have been pretty busy with the kids out of school and still going to school myself. This Summer has gone by pretty fast so that is good for me anyway.

June 2 Cooper joined our family and has blessed us with his very serious nature. He is stubborn little thing but he is sweet too! Cooper hope you have a wonderful birthday! He is having his birthday party this Saturday at the same place Sage had hers I will try to remember to post pictures I forgot to post any from Sage's.
