Couple of pics from the last couple of weeks!

CRAZINESS!

So the last few weeks have been so crazy! It has been such an expensive month for us! We have had birthday party after birthday party, baby showers, graduations, team party's, on and on! I have not had time to sit and blogg, which i have missed so much! Here are a just a few things that we have been up!

My baby boy graduated from kindergarten! It was so cute and they performed a little play, which jake was the Indian Cheif in. I made his costume and it turned out pretty cute. Although, I was a little disappointed that they graduated in their play costumes, but not a big deal, I guess.


Can you find my little Indian Chief??




Receiving his diploma!



Jacob Ryan
Kindergarten Class of 2008!!!!!





My sister graduated last night from Higley High and it was so disappointing, to say the least. None of us kids (myself and my brothers) got to attend. Because of the rain, they had to hold the ceremony in the auditorium and were only allowing 4 people per graduate to come and since there are 5 of us kids plus our signifigant others and our kids my parents were the only ones that got to go. Not only that my sister did not get to graduate with her class because they split it up into two ceremonies. I was so bummed for her and totally thought that Higley High should have had another back up plan!!! I mean this is a big deal that these high schoolers look forward to! Anyways, just had to vent that! So I do not have any pictures of that, but Tara we are so proud of you!!!

We did have a graduation party for my sister along with celebrating her 18th birthday over the weekend though. It was a blast! My parents rented a 22 foot waterslide and we all had so much fun on it! So much fun, I forgot to take some pictures, dang it. I wish I could fit one of these waterslides in my back yard! Not only did the kids have a blast on it, so did us adults!! lol.

I did get a pic of Adysen's cute little toes that I painted before the party. My mom thinks I am obsessive with taking these type of pictures, but i cannot help it. lol.

Aren't those just the cutest little toes that you have ever seen?!



I just had to post this one really quick because I thought it was the cutest little picture of Adysen watching the D-Backs game with Daddy the other night! She loves it (and so does daddy)!



Geez, now that I am looking back at my pics the last couple of weeks, I realized that I did not take very many! I feel so bad now! It has really just been that crazy!!

My little Farmer!

Caden went with Papa (my dad) today to cut the hayfields. He loves to go "farm" with his Papa and ride in the swather. I thought these were some cute pictures that grammy took!

Smok'n Deal!!!!!!

Horrible writing skills!

Okay, I just was reading back over my blogg and realized that I have some horrible writing skills!!! Sorry. I swear, I think it just because I have to wait until my day is over and my kids are in bed to do this blogging, and I am just to wore out to really care at the time! lol.

No Cavities!!!

The boys had a dentist appointment today and they are still cavity free!! I am so proud of them my "good little teeth brushers!"



The boys in their special sunglasses at the dentist!





Adysen waiting for her boys to get their cleanings done. She was such a good girl!



Then on our way home from the dentist, my dad called and said that one of the cows has an eye infection, so we met him out there to help doctor up the baby calf. This was a learning experience for the boys! They had to help papa get him into a holding pen so that they could put medicine in its eye. I think my dad forgets that the boys are 4 and 6, so they like to ask alot of questions and don't understand that you can be loud and do that when you are trying to do all that! I think he was a little frazzeled when it was all said and done, but mission was accomplished!!! And most importantly the boys had a good time!

The Wii!

Yes, we are now proud owners of the wii! It is such a blast and even more awesome such a great workout! For those of you that do not have one, I suggest that you get one!!! We have been having so much fun playing! We had a bowling tournament with the boys yesterday, and who needs the gym, just do the boxing match on the wii! LOL. I probably burned 500 calories! We are thinking that we should have a wii party very soon!!!

My baby girl is already 4 months!!

Our little Adysen turned 4 months today! I still cannot believe it. She has been such a wonderful addition and blessing to our family. She lights up all of our eyes everyday with her beautiful smile and all the little things that she learns and does everyday! She has been such a good baby. She is sleeping through the night and in the morning when I go to get her, she always has a huge smile on her face. Thank you for a wonderful 4 months Adysen!!!! Mommy loves you!

Quit run down of yet another BUSY weekend!

Friday I took the boys shopping for new flip flops and underware! They were in desperate need! They actually had alot of fun. I let them kind of do there own shopping with a couple of "No, let's look at something else." LOL. Then as usual jake had his normal Friday evening football practice. Then that night I took the boys out to see Nims Island at the movie theatre and it was such a good movie. Michael had to get up early Saturday morning, so he stayed home and went to bed when Adysen did. We all three loved the movie and it was so nice being able to go out with just the boys!

Saturday, we got up early to go to Jakes football game. He played pretty awesome. He has been a little insecure about the whole thing because everyone on his team is 7 and 8 years old and he just turned 6, so everyone on his team has already been playing a year or two. He is picking up the sport quite wellthough and had an interception at his game!!!! He was very proud of himself (mommy too)! I was so into the game that I forgot to take some pics, but I will next game! Then that night my mom and I went to see Maid of Honor at the movies and it was a very cute, humorous movie. She took me out to try Sushi at the Blue Wasabi and I actually loved it!!! It was not what I thought it was going to be like at all. I am looking forward to going out and doing it again!!!

Sunday we went to my parents for our traditional sunday dinner! It was my SIL birthday, so we celebrated it with cake and gifts. It was nice.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEX! We love you!



My little sister filled up water balloons for the kids to have a water balloon fight and yeah it turned into an adult water fight too. Bless my brother Ryans heart, he was the target for the evening and ended up soaked! He was a good sport though and we all had such a blast! I wish I had pics of that too!

Adysen had her first piece of "real food" at the birthday party. I gave her a piece of pizza crust to gum and she loved it! I kept having to give her a new piece when the one she had got soggy, so that it would not fall off into her mouth and when i would take it away to do that, she would get so upset. It was cute though! She is getting to be such a big girl and it makes me exited and sad at the same time!

The newest pets to the Ryan Family. LOL

We went out to breakfast with my dad and mom and then to our surprise we found out that they had bought the boys cows. Yes, cows! My boys are so exited about it! So we went to the "pasture" to check them out and each of the grandkids got to pick out which cow they wanted to help poppy raise. The grandkids and Poppy are pretty exited about raising these cows together. My dad bought one for each of the grandkids. Jake has named his "Ranger", Caden names his "Lady Bug II" (he said it looks like Aunt Tara's paint horse Lady Bug), and Adysen we came up with Buttercup for her yellow cow. I think that it is really neat that the kids get to experience some of the things that I did growing up. My parents are amazing grandparents and I feel truley blessed to have them in our lives! Thank you!

Monday!

We started off our week going on a picnic to the park with some friends. We went to a park with a splash pad and the boys loved it! They played for about three hours running back and forth between the playground, splash pad, and sand box. Adysen slept most of the time, so it was nice and relaxing for Mommy too!
