The Zoo
We made the yearly trip with the Tsushima's to the zoo. We really had a great time. It was perfect weather and I had perfect help! Thanks to Cheryl and her beautiful girls. The twins loved the animals and were pointing at them the whole time. Brynn especially loved the $12 penguin that she just had to have. I think it was only about 5 inches. As if! She wouldn't let go of this stuffed animal so I of course spent the money and bought it for her. SHe still loves to cuddle it. Jaylynn really loved the 1 second train ride. As for Bracken I think he just liked drinking juice from a straw! Overall it was a fun day!

Happy Birthday Jaylynn
Jaylynn is 3!!! Holy cow!I can't believe my little princess is growing up. She is 3 going on 16!! She had a really fun birthday. We had a party at Aunt Val's on Sunday afternoon with Papa Jay and the rest of the family. Then Sunday night we had a party with Grandpa and Grandma Lindley. Then on Monday she had a Hannah Montana Party with all her cute friends. She really makes birthday worth it because she would always add after every present.."Thanks you so much this is what I always wanted." or "I really needed this ____." Wow... she know exactly how to melt the heart!
Jaylynn really is my pride and joy! I'm always so proud of her. She has been such a great daughter and always let's me know that I am a good mom.(She really knows how to work me.) She is always helping me with the twins and seems to always try to do the right thing. I couldn't ask for anything better then her. When I get sad or I'm just having a bad day I can always count on her to lift me up and make me feel good. She is just that type of person. I see my mom in her too. I love that my daughters have her good qualities. Birthdays are always bitter sweet. I just wish my mom could see how amazing all of her grandchildren are!!
Hannah Montana Birthday Party
The twins just wanted the birthday presents so bad!!
Hannah Montana Birthday cake! Don't look too close. Jaylynn helped and well Wendy and I just really didn't do well this year. But Jaylynn and her friends loved it. (Bridi and Trina please don't laugh!!)
We went to Jaylynn's favorite place to eat. Applebee's

There is beauty all around!
Okay.... let me just say that this weekend was wonderful. There really was beauty all around. My kids were at my Aunt Val's for the weekend and I was alone with Ben. It was wonderful!!! As I was riding on the 4-wheeler on our 5 hour ride, I had a lot of time to think about how wonderful it was to be alone and I was enjoying the ride and just thinking was great. It was beautiful. I didn't miss my kids at all and I loved every minute of our adventures camping trip! Thanks Val for saving our kids and giving Ben and I a chance to fall in love all over again!
On our first ride we went down to Copper Globe mine. It was amazing to see how hard they really had it back in the early 1900. We also saw a big horn sheep and some wild mustangs. But don't worry my camra died as I was taking the picture of the sheep. Ben was very upset. So we didn't get very many pictures. But I don't care I was alone and I didn't have to change any diapers!!

Update
This last month has been really busy with family. Here is the update!
We are enjoying our park dates with our friends.
Beckham and Jaylynn loved pushing Brack in the swing.
Jaylynn had her last dance performance of the season. She did a great job! I really just love watching her dance it brings back so many memories...and I hope we can keep building on those memories. I just love dancing. Let's hope she keeps on loving it!!!!
Happy Birthday to Reese.We gave Reese some makeup for her b-day. BIG MISTAKE! But we sure love the girl! She is always so loud...she really doesn't understand how to wisper. Hummmm...it reminds me of someone? (Grandma Joy would be so proud!!)
Jaylynn got some kittens from Aunt Val and Uncle Kash. She just loves them and named them well...of course...Val and Kash! But we had a little well humm...let's just say they are gone....So we had to get some more from Val and Kash. But Jaylynn was able to think of some other names and came up with Jack and Jill. Creative??? I think we play preschool way to much! Here is a picture of her holding Kash.
The twins are doing great. Busy as ever! They just love to eat and throw food on the floor and at each other. Every meal is a big event at our house. I'm not sure if it's going to get better or worse? They really are starting to act more like twins. They love to chase each other around the house. And they love to help each other get in trouble. It seems that one of them thinks of something FUN to do and the other is right there to carry out the task. Example. Pulling all the toliet paper off the holder. Annoying.... Jaylynn just never got into anything so this is just a different ball game for me and I am losing. Here is a picture of the twins getting clean up in the utility sink after a wonderful food fight. Notice Brynn's hair. Poor girl. GROW SOME HAIR!!

Okay Leslie!!!
I know that I haven't posted anything for awhile but life is so busy right now. The twins are everywhere.... it's not horrible but just requires a lot of my time. This last month has been really fun, emotional, and hard. Even though life is hard it's great we also have those good days. I hope we all agree. I've been missing my mom and dealing with mother's day was really hard. But I am so blessed to have wonderful husband, father, aunts and friends to notice how hard it really is even though I put on a happy face. I just miss her. I think the first hard day this month was watching Jaylynn perform in her first dance competition. My mom would have loved it.
Jaylynn and friends Bentley and ?! She was the only 2 year old... You can tell by looking at her 4 and 5 year old friends!
Jaylynn performing was the funnest thing. She loved it! It didn't scare her at all!
Little Jaylynn with big Jalen.
She was so proud of her trophy. And yes she did sleep with it!!!
Bracken crawling at 9 1/2 months... I am so glad that it took so long!
Brynn loves playing with doors and army crawling!! Crazy girl she is so much like my mother. Wow... she is loud and weird and a JOY to be around. We love her!!!
Our first big ouch!! Jaylynn fell down our front stairs. I didn't know what to do...I didn't have Doctor Grandma Joy to call but Cheryl and Melissa helped me in making sure it wouldn't scar! It is still healing!
First Emery County horse ride for the Twins.... Bracken is such a cry baby...Cowboy up!
Shopping with Papa can be make you so tired. We love that Papa Jay always have meeting up here so we can go on our lunch dates. Thanks Grandpa
We went on a family day up AF Canyon. It's crazy we had to pay to go to the mountains. Were is Joes Valley. I miss HOME!! Anyways... We were there for about 5 seconds and this is what Brack looked like. Boys will be Boys....SOOOOOO different from Jaylynn!
The Family!!
The dress. Don't worry I sew! Thanks to Wendy and to Ben. Ben said if he could build a house which he did a great job at I could learn to sew. Who would have know that my wonderful mom could pass down her amazing gift. I can do it and I love it. It really has been fun making the girls there dresses. I will have to post Brynn's later. I also got a new sewing machine for Mother's day. Love ya Ben and don't worry I'll make you proud! LAUGH!!!
9 month check. I was just about a month late but what can you do! Bracken weight was about 19 pounds and Brynn weighs 15 pounds. She is on 2nd percentile! She is so small but so full of life! They are doing really well just a little low on iron! We just have to make sure we stay with formula until they are 1 year. No worries! They are so hard....but we love them....I think?

Going Private!!!!
Well.... this makes me sad but we need to go private. I just feel that blog's should be for people that love you and want to keep up with your family. I also am just doing the blog thing because I want to keep a journal of my kids due to the fact that I don't have time to scrapbook. I love the idea of turning the blog into book. I also like that I can keep in contact with all my friends. So if you want to contiune to check up on my family please leave me your email. Thanks!
