Silly Kason

So yesterday on our way to church Kason said to Kasey.....

Kason..."Dad slow down, there is a cop"

then after the cop passed he said

Kason..."ok now you can go faster"

Kasey..."Kason it is still important to obey the law even when there isn't a cop around. You could get in an accident and then you could get hurt and it would be your fault because you wern't obeying the law"

Kason..."But dad...I dont even know the law!!!"

Little smarty pants! He's getting so smart, and so funny.

Oops...

I think I forgot that I was going to be sure to post once a week!

I don't even have one sec to do it today, so here's hopin for tomorrow!

Back off.....I'm busy!!!

My Sweet Kason

I cant believe my little tiny 3 pound 15 ounce guy has turned 6. I am always amazed at how quickly you forget how small they were. Is this not the cutest, littlest face you have ever seen.

Our first family picture!

Then he decided it would be a good idea to start growing up, so he turned 1

and then 2......

then not slowing down at all, he turned 3....

getting more fun all the time, he turned 4


and then 5......

and then just recently, on the 8th, he turned 6!

Kason is such a fun kid, he's just soo dang cool. We love this boy so much. He is such a great brother to his sister and brother. They love him so much, probably almost as much as he loves them. WE LOVE YOU LITTLE BUD!

For his birthday this year we had the family party on his actual birthday (Thursday), almost everyone was there, grandma and grandpa Ellis even made the long trek to Vegas. We had dinner and cake at the park. Then he decided he wanted to have a friends party this year. I figured being able to hold him off until he was 6 was pretty good, so I gave in. He had his friends all bring their bikes to the park. They rode like crazy, had pizza and cake. He had a super fun birthday! Thanks to everyone who came!

all things scary.....

The other day Kason and Jayli were in her room just playing. I could hear them laughing and giggling so I went to see what they were doing. I just stood by the door so they wouldn't see me. I walked in on this conversation......

Kason telling Jayli

"....and there will be ghosts, and monsters, and zombies, and grandpas!" I started laughing and then I was caught and he wouldn't finish his story or tell me the beginning. I didn't realize grandpas fit in that category, but I'm just the mom what do I know!

What are your kids going to dress up as for Halloween this year?

Yummy!

Trevin got to have is first very own ice cream cone today.

Think he liked it?

Sweet Kason

So on Saturday afternoon Kason's little friend Johnny was over playing. It was his birthday party that night so his mom was out doing all the fun last minute things. So anyway...it was lunchtime and we got Sonic(yummm). We are getting ready to eat, all the kids are up to the table and Johnny went to take a bite of his hamburger...this was their conversation

Kason: Wait!!! We didn't say the prayer yet

Johnny: the what..

Kason: the prayer, you know...to Heavenly Father

Johnny: for what

Kason: you know...when you say prayers to Heavenly Father, you get lots of blessing.

Johnny just sat there like "Whatever!" Jayli said the prayer and then they chowed down.

I love my sweet little man, at least we're doing one thing right with them!!!

So sad....

So I was just reading back through 2008 and I have realized what I huge blog slacker I have been.

It is my goal to be better, post something at least once a week (Kasey...don't even say it!)

So I'm back!!!!

And just for fun...here's a little picture

"We are going on a trip...in our favorite rocket ship"

Sept 2, 2009

Just a quick post to say "HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY"
To my momma! She is the very bestest around. When I
told Kason last night that it was her birthday today he said
"we better hurry so we don't miss her party!" The party
is gonna have to wait a few days and then we will be
there to celebrate too!!!

Happy birthday mom! I love you!!!

3 little ones, all in a row

I was in the kitchen doing the dishes when Trevin
started screaming. I asked Kason if he would
play with him for a minute until I was done. After
a few seconds, all was quite again so I finished up
with what I was doing and then went to check on
things. This is what I found walking out of the kitchen.

Trevin just wants to be one of the big kids!

It's jam time!!

Kason had been begging me to teach him how

to make strawberry jam. So I figured we might

as well do it. They had a blast helping....washing.....

putting in to be mashed, measuring, stirring,

and scooping into the jars.

Kason telling me not to take his picture yet

Jayli telling me shes not putting

her fingers in it!

When it was all in the bottles, I told her

she could get the rest out with her fingers

Kason with the finished product. Doesn't he look proud

Final step: TASTE TEST....the best part

I think he approves

Jayli just wants the jam, she doesn't care about the bread

A little while later, I got in the shower.

I told Kason and Jayli to stay out of the

jam. They said ok....which I thought

they knew meant STAY OUT OF
THE JAM. But apparently not.

This is how I found Jayli on the

elliptical when I got out of the shower.

What have I been up to????

Enough said.......right?

3 down....1 to go! Andrea, I need you!

This is going to have to do for today!

It's been so long that now I don't even remember

when this was. Anyway...we have a mommy and

me playgroup with our ward and this time we went to

Peter Piper Pizza! They take the kids back into

the kitchen and show them all the cool stuff and

then they get to make their own little pizza.

They. loved. it.

Here is our 1/2 of the group waiting for our turn to go into the kitchen.
Waiting to wash hands.....

Kason scrub-a-dubbing

verrrrry carefully putting the "CHEESE ONLY" onto his pizza

Jayli putting the pepperoni on just right....

We had a great time playing with all our friends and then eating our pizza!

Pathetic!

By now I am sure you are all sick and tired of looking
at our wedding pictures. Don't worry, come back
tomorrow (or maybe the next day) and there will be
new stuff and when I say new stuff I mean LOTS of
new stuff. So everyone get excited and come
back tomorrow!

Happy Anniversary!

It's hard to believe that we are celebrating our 8th

Anniversary. It doesnt seem like I'm old enough to

have already been married for 8 years!!! We

have had a great time, with lots more to come.

Our engagement picture......we're babies!!

**Don't mind the terrible color in these pictures,

I had to scan them from our photo album!**

right outside the temple doors!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY KASEY....

I LOVE YOU!

My lucky day!

So I was in the kitchen doing the dishes when the doorbell rang. When I opened the door a friend of mine Cathy was just getting ready to pull away. All she said was "Have a nice day!!!" and had left me a beautiful plant on my porch. Then she said she was "beautifying the world, one house at a time!" Thanks Cathy.....You totally made my day!
