A few pics...

Well I NEVER get on here anymore, and since my mom doesn't have a facebook, I thought I'd post a few from Halloween. So enjoy mom!

Not really any captions either. Halloween was a lot of fun. We spent it in St. George with the Van Wagoners. Played games, ate food, and trick or treating. I'll try to stay a little more on top of things, but no promises! :)

Some Random Ones...

Well since I haven't posted in forever I thought I'd throw up a FEW of what we have been up to the last couple of months. Enjoy! These are all out of order but I'm too lazy to fix it, so sorry.

Ethan and Brody on Halloween.

Ryan and Reese on Halloween

My bambinos on there first day of school. Crazy that I have a 3rd grader.

Ethan FINALLY lost his first tooth, yep he was 6

This is what happens when you leave Reese unattended by my makeup. Stinker!

She is super cute though!

my little man on his blessing day.

Ryan's baptism day. Brody got blessed the following day.

Ryan's Number 8

And last but not least. My mom on her visit to the RainForest Cafe. Love it!

Lil Baby Brody!!

I know everyone has been asking for pics of the baby. I don't have a lot of good ones, so when I get more, I'll post more! Anyway, this is Brody Hoagland. He weighed 7 lbs 3oz and was 19"long. He was born June 26th. It was the easiest delivery I have had. Everything was so smooth. He is a doll and we are enjoying every minute with him!

Reese is Two!!

We got Reese's two year old pictures done, so I thought I'd post some favorites. Enjoy!!

Here we go...

Now this is quite the random picture, but it was a really fun day. This was a couple of years ago in 2007 when my family and some friends went to the pumpkin patch to pick our pumpkins for Halloween. In the picture is Brian, Melissa and Peyton Hardy, and Ethan and Ryan. Good times, Good times!

Ok now it is only right that I tag...Melissa (and you better do it this time ;) ) Lisa, and Kimmie

I'm dreaming of a White Christmas!!

This is a little bit of what Vegas has looked like the last couple of days. There was actually a lot more snow than this, but this was the best picture I had. It's probably the ONLY time Reese will ever wear her snowsuit, but it was perfect timing for it. Thats Ethan and Ryan having a snowball fight in the back. It's crazy how the weather's been out here. Crazy enough, it doesn't make me miss the Utah winters!

Future movie star??

I was going through some of my pictures on the computer and came across this. I had forgotten all about it, but thought it was funny so I thought I'd share...

Oh my Crap!!

Ok, so what happens when you send your husband and kids to the lake without you so you can go shopping with your mom??? This... Seth got Ethan and Ryan to wakeboard. Um, hello maybe I am just totally freaking out but they are so little. Anyways they said that it was a lot of fun. Seth had to bribe Ethan, that if he would get out there and try it then he could have a taste of his Mt. Dew, and he did. I'm glad they are safe and no one got hurt. They do look kind of cute out there though. And props to the pictures taken with an I-phone not too shabby! Good job Bryan . :)

This one is Ethan
Ethan again
Ryan
I think this is Ryan too. It's kind of hard to tell.

Green River, Wyoming!!

Well after about 2 years we finally make a trip back to Green River. Seth was excited to finally go back home. It's definitely a small town, but lots to do. We packed in our 4 days with lots of fun. Hopefully we can do it again soon. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Van for our fun filled weekend. We love you!

MeMoRiES!!

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.

4th of July!!!

To start off our 4th of July day, we went over to our friends Brian and Melissa's house for some yummy steaks and babyback ribs. The food was so yummy and our kids and adults of course had a great time just hanging out and playing the Wii. Later that night we went over to some other friends who put on this HUGE firework display. I'm talking like getting a deejay and putting it to music and everything. They go to Pahrump and spent hundreds of dollars on fireworks. I've never been able to go because I always go home for the Stadium of Fire (which I heard was really good this year. Rats!!) but I must give the Bryan's props this year cause they really did do a good job. It was a lot of fun. I hope everyone had a great 4th as well.

Our Disneyland Vacation!!

Well, I finally was able to make it back to "The Happiest Place on Earth." Last time I was there was 1987. So you can do the math, but it was a long time ago. It is amazing how much I thought I remembered, but really didn't. It was great being with my kids and watching all their expressions. We are definitely going to have to go more often. I took a ton of pictures, so I'll just post a few. Enjoy!



This is me, my mom and my sister standing in front of California Adventure.

Ethan thought Peter Pan was really cool and funny. It's crazy how much these characters really look like the cartoons. They do a good job with that.

I think Belle was my favorite princess. We went and ate at Arielle's Grotto, so we got to see all the princesses, and Belle was so cute.

We also ate with Seth's side of the family at Goofy's Kitchen. It was fun.
This is in California Adventure, A Bug's Land. So cute.My mom and her grandbabies in their matching pj's she bought them.Obviously it's Chip n Dale!!Reese loved the princesses. She just kept starring.We were also able to go to Sea World. It was fun, but it rained on us the whole time, and it was cold. So I think we were out of there by 3:00 that afternoon. The kids had a good time though.
All in all we had a great time. I can't wait to do it again. Next time hopefully it won't be in 20 years!!
