Here is my attempt to get a pic of Tristan's Shiner....I am not quite sure how it happened, but he hit his face on one of his trucks and got a black eye. Nice! Poor guy just slammed his thumb in the truck door last week and then this. He is all boy apparently.

Here we are going on a walk at Papa's house. Perfect timing too because right as we were leaving his house it started to pour down rain. A big storm rolled right on through. More rain...yay! We have had a ton of rain already this year it is crazy. Made for a nice, warm and humid walk...haha!

                               The two little ones looking way too big. How do they grow so fast??

                                               Pointing at mommy walking into the house.

My all time favorite pics of the day. Hudson riding the bike, compliments of his daddy pushing him, and trying to get him to wear the bike helmet to be safe. Tristan wears his helmet and ran into the garage to make sure Hudson had it to wear, well Hudson did not thank him for it....HAHAHA! Look at this kids face. He means business when he does not want something. He is freaking adorable. Love him and the Klosters!!

              Aaaawwww sweet Hudson boy looking so very cute and so very big.....it is so sad.

 Here are the little ones playing in the little play house. This was the only trying part of our play day. Makenna and Hudson were not sure about sharing the "opening" and "closing" of the door, etc. This lead to a couple small, short lived tantrums. Overall very easy day of sharing toys and playing....haha!
Love them and it is truly so fun to watch them all interact. Tristan is amazing with them. At times a little rough, but he is just so sweet to them.

 The three kiddos enjoying a wagon ride compliments of Aunt Deeda and in the grass I might add. That was one heavy load I am sure....whew! Better her than me doing it....haha!

Hudson loving the wagon ride and Tristan tickling him during the ride. He loves playing with Tristan.

                                         Hudson hanging with his beautiful girlfriend.

All the cutie kids playing together so nicely. They are truly some awesome kids. They play so well together. They have their moments, but overall pretty darn good. Trust me I have seen worse...haha!

Only one of my children would be doing this and of course it is crazy Makenna chilling on the coffe table....Really?

                                       Pretty Makenna in her cubs dress.....looking so big!

Kicking it with the Klosters on a very fun filled saturday afternoon. Family, friends and lots of food does it get any better than that....I THINK NOT!! The Klosters came to play with us today at our house. We did lot of playing and eating. Here are some pics from our very fun day.

 Tristan's cool facepainting finished product. He got to pick what he wanted and a baseball it was!

                                                            Getting his face painted.

                                                           Playing some of the games.

                                                       Playing in the bounce house.

 Makenna hanging out. Watching kids roll down the grass hill, while trying to copy them as well. Also taking time to yell out at the baseball players. She apparently wanted them to know she was there.

Tristan meeting the Chiefs Mascott and the Chiefs players practicing. It was a fun day.

Kids Club Baseball Celebration

Yesterday we got to go to a kids club celebration for the Chiefs Baseball team. We got to go into the stadium before the game for all sorts of fun things for the kids to do. While all the kids played, got balloon art, face painting, etc. the chiefs were on the field practicing before the game. It was very warm out, but we all had a lot of fun. I have been trying to post pics since yesterday, but blogger has been giving me issues so pics to come soon....hopefully.

Here is a short video of the kids swinging together. They are too cute to watch!

Here is a pic of Makenna seeing the new toy in the backyard for the first time. She is pointing at it.

The kids playing on the trampoline before daddy finished putting it together. No enclosure and lots of leaves from the storm last night. They didn't seem to mind.

Swinging together....they are so cute!!

Here is Tristan enjoying the finished product. The kids love the trampoline at Aunt Deeda's house and Tristan has wanted one for a while so we got one except ours has the enclosure for safety. LOVE IT!

Here are some pics of the kids playing in Grandpa's backyard right before the graduation. We were wasting some time and letting the kids walk around before the graduation started. Tristan had Tball right before Ariel's graduation party, he did not get a nap and did not feel like cooperating too much for pics. He took some good ones with Ariel, then he was over it. Look at pretty Miss Makenna in her pretty pink dress. She is so adorable and those curls, I just cannot believe it. She got a lot of attention when Tristan, Makenna and I were walking the halls keeping busy during the ceremony.

Today I was able to help Ariel celebrate graduating from high school. I cannot believe it...I have had the privilege of being a part of her life since she was 7 years old. Patrick, on the other hand, has been around Ariel since the day she was born and was/still is a HUGE part of her life. I cannot believe she is graduating high school and turning 18 years old in just a two months. Where does the time go?? Congratulations Ariel....WE LOVE YOU and are SO PROUD OF YOU!!

Ariel's high school graduation was today. I am so proud of her and so happy to be a part of this celebration. She has been such a huge part of my life and I am so happy to share this accomplishment with her and her family, which is thankfully mine as well. Here are some pictures of the graduate and the family. ENJOY!!
