Kambree's Baptism

It was such a special day. She looked like and angel and felt like a princess. She is such an amazing girl. My parents came and Joe's mom and Amanda, we invited some primary teachers and they came as well. We also invited our neighbors and they came, Kambree is such a great little missionary. It was a wonderful day for a very special girl.



My Mom made her a matching dress for her doll, she loved it!

She and my dad also gave her, her very own scriptures. She loves having her own scriptures to take to church.






Joe baptized Kambree, he loves his girl.

Happy Birthday Joe

He turned 33!
I can't say enough good things about this guy. He truly is the best Dad and Husband in the whole world. We love him so much.
We got him an i-pad for fathers day and his birthday and he was super excited! He got a few accessories to go with it. The kids gave him some sweet notes too. We made Oreo and raspberry cheesecake, his favorites, and we had a BBQ we also hung a bunch of his favorite snacks and treats from his door. He had to work that day but over all I think he had a fun day.


Sweet Moments

I love moments like this... One morning this week Kapri woke up early so I told her to go in the playroom and read quietly, a little while later this is how I found her, snuggled up with tangled.

Pregnancy

I haven't said much about this pregnancy and I am getting close to 33 weeks pregnant. I have to admit it has been a really good pregnancy over all. I was sick in the beginning but I feel good now. My veins hurt pretty bad for about 2 weeks and then they stopped hurting. It was such a blessing. I thought because I'd be so big and pregnant all summer that it would just be miserable but it hasn't been to bad. I have loved having the summer with the kids and we have done lots of fun things, so it has been good that she is still in and not out. She moves all the time and keeps quite busy in there. The ladies at church keep asking when I am due, one even aked if I was having her this week. Not quite:) I have a few weeks, I get big and then it always seems everyone can't believe I still have 7 or 8 weeks left. The last couple of weeks my ribs have been hurting pretty bad. I have continued to walk 3-4 times a week and I think that is part of why this pregnancy has gone so well. I really enjoy exercising. I can't wait to run again.
I am going to a midwife this time and delivering at a birthing center, I will be going all natural. I am a little nervous about it but excited at the same time for the experience.
We are all getting so excited to meet this sweet little girl. I am pretty much ready for her but we just can't come up with a name... That has been such a hard one for us this time. Hopefully she will have one soon!



28 weeks pregnant

Happy 8th Birthday Kambree

This is a big birthday for our kids they get baptized a member of our church when they turn 8. She is super excited and is getting baptized this Saturday August 6th.
She had a wonderful Birthday, we did presents and played in the morning and then we went swimming in the afternoon (her favorite thing to do) and had cake and ice cream later that night. It was a wonderful day.
I love this girl so much, I can't believe she is already 8 the time has flown. She is such an amazing girl with so much determination she enjoys life to its fullest. Her favorite things are swimming, riding bikes and playing with her family. She has memorized all the articles of faith and is working on memorizing some scriptures. Her favorite foods are popcicles and pizza. We are so blessed to have her in our family!
Happy Birthday Kam's!!!






Her new ride!! The kids have begged for one of these forever and I found one around Christmas that was a super good deal so I decided to get it. The kids love it!!

I love summer!

Freeman Family Reunion

We had a fun Freeman Family get together at my parents lake house. We decided to go the week before so we could see them for a while especially since the last few summers they have been gone on their mission, it was so fun spending some good time with them. They are doing lots of work on their yard and so the kids got to help and get so dirty they loved it. It was such fun time spent with Grandma and Grandpa Freeman. My sisters family also invited us to go river rafting with them and the Hawkins family so Joe, Kyle and Kambree got to do that as well while me and the little ones watched. They had a blast. Then later on in the week Jami and Jani, John and Amanda, and Amy and Craigs familys all met us up at the lake house and we had a fun play day on the water and ate lots of yummy food. Steven and Nicki and Brian and Camilla were super close to having a baby and they are way far away so they couldn't make it and we missed them a bunch.
I always love hanging out with family it is one of my very most favorite things. We had a great week!

Broken Finger

This happened in June(2011) I am late in posting. Kayelee fell and broke her pinky finger. You have to look close but you can see it on the x-ray. She was just running outside while playing and fell and caught herself. She cried hard and Joe was outside with her and thought she was just being a little over dramatic (she does that every once in a while:) I guess she wasn't faking it this time. It healed up great though and no problems now.


Swimming

The kids did swimming lessons in June and then we have been swimming a bunch since then. We have had a great time at the pool this summer. I enjoy it too even though I am 7 months pregnant, it's a fun way to keep cool. The kids are all getting to be pretty good swimmers too!

Kayelee, Kyle, Kambree

Kapri

Beautiful!

Joe took this just after one of our spring showers it was just beautiful!


Soccer (Spring 2011)

Kyle, Kambree, and Kayelee all played soccer this spring. They had a great time! Kyle was even asked to play on a select team for a tournament after the season was over. It was lots of fun watching them they are good little soccer players!

Kambree, you have to look really close to see her.

Kayelee, going for the goal.

Happy Birthday Brittlee

Her 2nd birthday was April 27th so this is way late but I wanted to make sure we had some pictures on here of her special day. She is the sweetest thing we all love her so so much! Her little smile says it all! The kids love her to pieces it is so fun to watch them love her and take care of her. We all think she's pretty special!!
