Breckyn's World

I gave Breckyn the camera the other day. I loved seeing what images she wanted to capture forever. I found it interesting that the things we put on our walls are so important to her. It makes me want to put better things on our walls and redecorate a little...

Breckyn's Pics

How many pics can I put in one post?

Well let's just see. So, after my 9 month break from blogging I actually miss it!! I thought I was finished with this silly form of record keeping forever, but now I'm actually kinda sad the highlights of the last 9 months are not chronicled here (oh, except for a couple of posts from my fat husband...;) BUT -I can't just start blogging again without noting the extraordinary events of the past 9 months, I just can't. Sooooo here is the super long catch up post. This is for me and me alone (oh and the fat husband too, he really loves it for some reason), I really don't expect people to read this dumb thing, at least I sorta hope they don't...

First off, Breckyn participated in her first season of soccer-
They called themselves the Heartbreakers. The coaches were serious about winning and pretty intense. Practices were no joke. Parents had matching shirts and water bottles. Not quite what we had expected...
But she LOVED it. Even though she was the little one. (#3) Can't wait for next season.
Kyra turned 5... She is still our sweetheart.




We had a family of skeletons for Halloween! (PJ's, cheap and easy!)
The girls got their tonsils out. Kyra did great. She was bouncing around the very next day.

Breckyn almost died..... well it seemed like it anyway. 33 pounds on an average height six year old is pretty scary looking. She was still vomiting bloody scabs 3 weeks later..
Had fun at Oceanside during sunset in January.
It was GORGEOUS. These pics can't show it.


Enjoyed delicious fruit from our baby citrus grove.
Ryder turned 3 in January... Still obsessed with Cars.
In February we got our crafty on and made a cute Valentines wreath.

Breckyn took a sewing elective at school and made a tooth fairy pillow.

We were pretty proud of our Valentines too.

Breckyn put that pillow to use and lost her first tooth! FINALLY...
With some help from Dad's pliers.

Also in February, Cooper turned one. He has astonished me somewhat with some of his crazy tricks. More on that in another post.

Kyle keeps going to work and coming home bloody. So sexy, dontchya think?

Kyle also had the nerve to say Cooper looked like a girl and forced me to cut his hair..
Whatever, look at that masculine face!
Never the same again :(
The obligatory self-timer Easter family pic.
And lastly, Breckyn just turned 7! She had a rockstar party with a bunch of silly girls.
It was a blast. And I can't believe my baby is SEVEN.

OK. So now we're caught up. See if I will keep this up. Don't hold your breath.

Long Cold Winter!

We thought when we moved here that we would be leaving the long cold winters of the midwest behind. Well, unfortunately that has not been the case! I mean, come on, you expect us to go to the beach in this blizzard? No thank you! The kids however thought it was awesome and tried their hardest to make a little snow man/slush man and enjoyed eating it before it all melted.

Happy Birthday!

One Year Old Birthday! We love you!

-Kyle

Nap Time?

We couldn't find Breckyn one afternoon, after searching frantically everywhere, we found her taking a nap, in the cupboard...-Kyle

Colorado Christmas Vacation, by Kyle

Christmas was awesome. 2400 miles for a good ol' fashioned Colorado Christmas!
This little guy never had a melt down once while being strapped down in his car seat for all those miles!

New Haircut!

Kyle here, I just wanted to post a picture of my new haircut. What do you think?

Not sure about the blog

Sorry everyone I made the blog private. I wasn't trying to exclude anyone, I honestly didn't really think anyone read it anymore! I'm just kind of done with the whole blogging thing and didn't want to just leave it out there. It's just hard to make time to do it anymore... so I'm still trying to figure out what to do with it. In the meantime, it is open to everyone again! (Not that there is anything to see though!)
