4 year old pictures

A little late but I just got the pictures back from Chase and Cody's photo session. I think they turned out very cute and it really shows their different personalities.

Muffin Tin Swap

I participated again in the Muffin Tin Swap with Michelle at Muffin Tin Mom.

Michelle hooked me up with a very nice and busy mom, Tara, at Feels Like Home. We swapped packages and had a great time shopping for each other!

I received my package today, and I had so much fun going through all of the things that I received!!

Star shaped muffin tin

Teddy Bear Fun cups

Cupcake liners

Cupcake holders with picks

Cookie cutters (stars and bears!)

Napkins and sprinkles!!

We love our package and can't wait to have a fun meal using our new stuff!

Thank you Tara...I had a great time!!

Weekend Update

Lakeside Rodeo was in town this weekend! We went to the Friday night performance with the Morgan's.

The boys did very well and watched the rodeo the whole time!

The bull riding and the Wild Horse Racing kept them pretty entertained!

Cody and his very loved cowboy hat!

They loved the clowns and food also!

A great picture of the 4 boys, Chase, Jack, Cody and Cash.

Can't wait to do another rodeo soon!

Tumbling

In April, Chase and Cody started a tumbling class. The class had only 3 session left and I wanted to see if they would like it. Our friends, Grace and Spencer was in the class also. The 4 of them had a blast together doing somersaults and head stands.

The best part is the free time where there is like an obstacle course with a trampoline, balance beam, tunnel, back bend stuff, jumping things and the cheese wedge for doing somersaults. They kids just run around and have a good time doing what they want!

Chase and Cody really like the balance beam. They get on it and can walk forward and backwards, stand on one foot and kick with the other foot, do dip downs and jump off!

Int he beginning of the class, Mrs. Jill, warms up the kids by doing fun exercises to music. They boys really think it is fun!

Shaky fingers and popping fingers is one of the warm up songs.

After those 3 classes were over, Grace and Spencer, couldn't go to the next session, but Cash and Jack could so now we are doing 6 sessions of the same thing and having just as much fun!!

I don't think either of them will be Olympic gymnastic stars, but for the time it fun to take them and they go to sleep early that night because they are super tired!

Make up for lost time

I am hoping to return to blogging soon. It seems like the desire to blog is starting to return. Last month I just wasn't into it and I needed a break. We were busy also so that didn't help the free time that I had. I am also into reading right now and once I start a book nothing gets done. Pretty much the kids take care of themselves while I am enthralled in a book. I have check in with some of you throughout the month, while I might not have commented I was still checking in.

I hope that I still have bloggy friends and will get into a routine that includes blogging!!

4th of July

This weekend we went camping with The Morgan's. We had so much fun! It was all about celebrating America, though!

We went camping at our favorite camping place...Rancho California RV Resort! What a wonderful place that is with pools and lots of green grass to run around in!

We also had plenty of food, including donuts to eat!

Mike and Leslie had bought a $5 slip and slide and it kept the 4 boys busy all weekend! They ran through the water had fun and kept entertained! Here are some goofy pictures of that!

Another highlight was the golf cart parade that went through the park on Sunday afternoon. All the boy were very into this parade. It was very fun and a good way to spend the afternoon!

Chase, Cody and Cash waving to the parade goers!

We differently had a fun and great weekend!

Bronsen's 5th Birthday

Bronsen turned 5 today! (I am just now posting the pictures from it and going to try to catch up on my blog posts).

His birthday party was held at the local bike park.

Oh what fun it was! The weather was quite warm that day and the kids had to have long sleeve shirts, pants and full face helmets to ride their bikes.

Both Chase and Cody still have training wheels on thier two wheel bikes, but we took those out there and they rode.

Cody loved it and everytime we go by the bike park now he wants to go back. He rode the last two jumps and did very good after he got used to it. Chase did better sitting and playing with some of Bronsen;s new presents and stuff on the sidelines.

It was a great birthday party, with pizza and birthday cake!

Happy Birthday Bronsen!

Bike Riding and Bar Hoping

We were kidless this last weekend, the boys went with their grandparents for the night. Steve and I joined up with a bunch of friends Saturday for my cousin, Daniel's birthday.

We did this last year and wanted to do it again. This year we didn't get a room so I was the sober driver for 3 people.

So off we go to our first bar and our first drink...

The girls of the party! We had a great time.One of the many buckets of beers that was consumed throughout the night and evening.

The birthday boy, Daniel and two friends having a great time!

Fun times dancing and carry on!!

Last year I took pictures of the signs of all the bars we went to but apparently I didn't do that this year. I am kind of bummed i didn't because I have no clue where we went to party! I know one of the stops was PB Bar and Grill and we also went to the wavehouse.

Can't wait until next year's birthday to do it all again!

School Picnic

Today was the end of the year school picnic! All Chase and Cody's classmates plus thier parent (s) were there. The teachers made it a potluck with hots dogs, fruit, chips and cookies.

Cody playing!

Had fun can't wait to do it next year and many years after!

Birthday Presents

When Grandpa and Grandma's Jonas' birthday present comes to our front door is it so exciting that Chase and Cody can not wait to open it!!

Grandma Carol always picks out some super cool toys for them.

Chase was so excited to get this transformer figure!

An action figure for Cody the action man!!

This remote control quad riding guy was the best! They are having the best time using the remote control and the quad dude. When he crashes or flips over it's the best - according to Chase and Cody.

They also got an air hog helicopter thing!

They made out from their Grandma and Grandpa Jonas!! Thank you!
