k so it has been alittle while since i have posted but it has been crazy around here. corey and the boys went camping last weekend for a fathers and sons campout and had a great time. this week of course was a hell on wheels week with my 5 wonderful children. well of course we have been doing tennis with wyatt and cameron. but in the mean time the kids have felt like making there own popcicles out of koolaid and apple juice which of course has ended up on my kitchen and living room floor. sam tried to make her own koolaid on tues and stained her hands and my cupboard, not to metion an interesting flavor of koolaid for lunch. wed i had to take all 5 kids to the store cuz i was literally out of diapers for both sam and emmett. so all five at walmart and then to ridleys. we made it through with all the can i have this and can i have thats and the baby emmett fussing. got home unloaded and swore to never do that again. today it has been the day of destickifiying my house and trying to get a few things done so we can work on the yard and possibly clean the van. so ya being a mom of 5 is great.

my big baby.. what a cute little chunk..

our fearless leader trying to get all the kids worms, weights etc on their fishing polls. i think he was a little overwhelmed yesterday but did a great job. love ya hun...

Free fishing day!!!!!!
so we tried to go fishing as a family on sat cuz it was free fishing day in idaho. it went ok, but the kids did not catch anything but had fun trying. emmett and i spent most of the time in the van cuz it was a very windy day. we are def going to try again but on a better day when we can acutally truly enjoy the weather..

so we have made it through our 1st week of summer vacation. it was kind of a hard week just because of the weather. i was also a little stressed trying to get my house put back together after getting back on my feet after having #5. i cleaned really well and that seemed to help my stress level. corey also switched job sites this week which means he is going to 4- 10 hour shifts. yeah no work on fridays. that could change though depending on if this job goes to overtime. we are doing well and tennis starts tomorrow for the kids so that should help with the bordum over the next 4 weeks. nothing else really going on but i am offically on my treadmill again and am so glad. talk to you later A-

WE blessed emmett this sunday. We were so lucky to have family around to support us and to be there for the special occasion. Thanks to all who came and we were glad to have you in our home as well. Emmett did really well for it being his big day. I am so glad to have a wonderful and supportive husband and am so proud of him as well.

my cute brother came up this weekend with my folks. he was followed around by my little girl. she just adored him. plus the boys loved having him around too. what a fun uncle he is..

my cute little boy. finally in something other than a sleeper...
