Last Day of School!!!

So I thought it fitting that I make a post for the last day of school since my previous post was the first day of school!! How pathetic is that!! Not that anyone even bothers to check my blog anymore, but that's ok. So here are Rylee and Jossi's last day of school pictures. School went great for both of them. Jossi was definitely ready for a break, Rylee didn't really care one way or the other. Looking at these pictures, I can't believe how much they have both changed! Makes me sad!
I guess I should also introduce the blog to Brooklyn. She is 11 weeks now and is so much fun. (Especially when she's having a good day!) It is fun and challenging at the same time having a baby around again. Seeing her smile makes it all worth it!

What we've been up to lately...

I think I will just let the pictures explain!
First, Grandma and Grandpa Stevens came to visit. They were here for a short weekend and let me add, a very cold weekend! All soccer games were cancelled because of the cold weather. Let's just say, our plans needed some changing. It was great to have them here!


The traditional Blue Bonnet pictures!

My brother Matt and his wife Debbie- They came to visit Easter weekend. It was so fun to have them here. They have only been married since Feb, so I think they were feeling like they were doing engagement pictures all over again!

Easter Morning!

Grandma was also here over Easter. We loved having her here. We made a trip to the dallas farmers market, Sprinkles, the mall (a few times), Hard 8, Mooyah, lets just say we did a lot of eating!
All of us at the park!

Spring soccer also came to an end. Jossi had a great season and is loving soccer more and more all the time. She received the award for the most goals scored! Way to go Jossi!

Jossi's team- The Purple Ladybugs

Jossi learning to ride her bike...finally

So Jossi finally decided she would learn to ride a bike. She has been so scared, it really took a lot of coaxing on dad's part. Once she got over her initial fear and realized she could do it, she took off! The nice thing about learning to ride a bike in Texas is, the terrible grass. Reagan decided she wouldn't be so scared if she learned on the grass. Well here in Texas you can do that. Also let's just say that Reagan really got his exercise that day. What a good daddy!!

My brother's wedding

So I am finally getting a new post. I know, it's been a while. My youngest brother was married a few weeks ago in WA. Rylee and I made the trip for a few days. We had a great time, but I must say we came back exhausted.
So Matt married Debbie who he just met about five months ago. The funny thing is, my parents have known her for a while since my dad is the single branch president in their area. Matt was on his mission, came back and started going to the singles branch as well. I must say, Matt got very lucky. Debbie is a sweet girl and we all think she is quite perfect for Matt. It was all so much fun, except for the fact that these two weren't very good sports about us decorating their car! Come on now, who doesn't know that's part of getting married. The car is supposed to get decorated right?!! Oh well, I guess we'll still love ya!
My cousin also left for Portugal on his church mission. He had his farewell that weekend so that was fun to also be apart of. He will do great and we are so excited for him!
This is my mom, sisters and sister-in-laws. (Minus Debbie, she was off taking other pictures:)

My good lookin' brothers

My Family

I love this picture of Grandpa and Dallas. If he can't have his mom or dad, Grandpa is the next best thing!

Happy Birthday Rylee!!!

So my little girl has turned FOUR!!! I can't believe it! I'm not sure she was too excited about her birthday. Don't get me wrong, she was excited for the party, presents, and cupcakes, but she was not too excited about getting older. She is constantly telling me that she wants to be my baby. Jossalyn is always saying she wants a new baby in our family (no I'm not telling you I'm expecting!) and Rylee gets a little upset and says that she IS the baby! Yes, she still carries around her blankie and yes she still sucks her finger! I'm not too sure how normal this is, but I think for the time being I will enjoy my four year old who loves being very attached to her mom! She is the very best at cuddling, giving hugs and kisses, and loves to tell us how much she loves us. I don't think you could ask for a sweeter child. We love you Rylee!

We went to Incredible Pizza for Rylee's birthday. It was so much fun. The kids had a great time. I think the bumper cars were the favorite.
