it's getting hot in here!

it's getting hot in here!!!! 33 degrees in february?!!? gotta love it!

gotta get some shaved ice when it's that hot!

and the pool is a must especially when we've got like 6 cute swim suits to try out for quincey!

not the hugest fan of her first dunk, but she loved her first dip and was such little cutie in her ruffles!

the boys picked up right where they left off - jumping and squirting and being the little fish that az has turned them into!

and jeter tried the puddle jumper for his first time! success!!!!

loving this summer weather in february!!!

friends

we have made some pretty amazing friends here in az, and it is very rare that a day passes without some kind of play date - whether it's tramp fun or 1 on 1 in the driveway or playing at the park!

we love our tyler, trevor, and issac friends soooo much :)

and these girls are seriously the best!!!! emma, maddi, bailey, and haylee :)

our neighbor javaris loves to hang with the boys too :)

skateboarding boys :)

love my yard looking like this :)

as we heard many a times growing up though - friends come and go but family will always be there! love these 3 little boys and love watching them have fun together and make memories every day - even at the car wash!

love day

happy love day :

we made valentines for friends and had our usual pink heart pancakes for breakfast :

heart rice krispie treats for preschool snack and some pink and white for baby girl!

we also had a love party at the park and got to play with avery girl while baby isaac was born :)

we got treats and flowers (for me and quinc) and it was another beautiful valentine's day :

color me rad!

i've always wanted to do a color run, so when my cara mentioned one called color me rad and asked if i wanted to do it, i was all over it!!! we convinced our husbands to join us and i was sooo excited for the big day!

we got our gear and color packets and went to the starting line!

lots of other people were busting out their color packets and throwing them around so we got a little pre-race color, and dust even rolled in someone else's spilled color to get his vibe on :

here we go!!!!!

we definitely got our fair share of color during the 3 miles, and it was super fun running together and crossing the finish line all colored up!

haha funny face pose!

there was an after race dance party, and i had to get in on some of that action!

such a fun way to spend a morning and definitely easier to run 3 miles with friends and colored chalk dust being thrown everywhere! loved doing it with this guy too :)

we also took a few extra color packets home and had a little color party in the backyard with the boys :)

such a fun morning! can't wait for our next color run!

first sprinkler party 2014

we had our first sprinkler day of the year :)

jeter was a little nervous at first and was more into splashing in the puddles and hitting and kicking the water instead of running through it, but the big boys loved practicing their ninja moves through it!

we definitely had to snuggled up in towels after our fun, but we were in heaven having our first sprinkler day in the beginning of february!!!
