Jake's 7th birthday....

My sweet 7 year old Jake. Love this boy so much!

Jake loves loves loves the Denver Broncos...so he requested a broncos cake....darn squeeze tube of writing gel was messed up...so that is why the writing looks so goofy..oh well..Jake loved it:)

He was one happy kid with this cake...

Present time..this present he is holding is a fishing pole..Jake is really into fishing with his daddy and brother Wyatt

Aunt Mandy gave Jake Bronco sunglasses for his birthday..he wears them everywhere we go. So cute!

Mom and Wyatt surprised Jake with balloons as he got off the bus....his comment to me was "MOM! You are humiliating me!!!" But I think he secretly loved it:)

cake and present time..Wyatt couldn't wait to get his hands on that cake!

Too cool....

Wyatt looks extremely bored here, but he was having so much fun. He loved Jake's birthday almost as much as Jake!~

loving opening his gifts

Both boys got a fishing pole...

Cutest 7 year old I know:) Love you Jake!

Jake is now 7!!! Wow...where did that time go? I love this little boy so much. He and his brother are the light of my life. Jake has always been the funniest kid...I don't know where he comes up with some of the things he says...I love you Jake and you make me so proud each and every day.

The happenings around this part of the world.

I took the boys to see the movie "Smurfs" Such a cute movie the boys loved it:)

Loving the movie

The armadillo we would see almost every morning when we were taking Jake to the bus stop! We had never seen an armadillo before!!

Wyatt sacked out! He never has naps anymore so this shocked me when I looked over and he was snoozing....it was a nice break for me though!

The boys talked me into an ice cream one afternoon when we went grocery shopping.....like it was really hard to break me down on that one! It's so hot here, we practically live on otter pops!

One of Wyatt's creations....he comes up with the funniest stuff

Waiting for the bus at Jake's bus stop....aren't the palm trees gorgeous! Jake said when we first arrived here in Texas that they weren't real but fake....he now knows they are definitely real...LOL

We live right by this 100+ year old Sugar refinery. This is where Sugar Land get's it's name from. They used to process the sugar here. Neat building.

On our way to the bus stop

Catchin some rays at the pool!

I think Jake is part fish...he loves the water and is becoming a great swimmer..



They would be in the pool every minute if I would let them!!!



I love these two boys so much..they are the funnest and cutest kids

Jake loves to go under the water now, and Wyatt tries but isn't quite brave enough yet...

So many things to post on the blog. We have been having fun here in Sugar Land. What an awesome place! I miss Utah a lot, but I don't think I could've picked a better place to live for the next few years.  We have met some nice people. Here's some pictures.....

1st day of school

Wow! Its been a while since I have posted anything on my blog.  It's been crazy trying to get settled in and have time for things I like to do...like blogging.
Here's some cute pics of Jake's first day of school. He is doing wonderful and loves school.

In front of one of the murels they have painted throughout Jake's school. Really great art work on the walls!

Jake showing his new school clothes. So handsome

I love this picture. He asked if I would walk behind him so that he could feel like he was walking in alone. ...But he kept looking back to make sure I was there:)

Walking towards his class. I can't believe he is already in 1st grade. Feels like I was just rocking him in my arms.

In front of his 1st grade Ms. Purkey's homeroom.

At his desk....he's ready for school to start:)

LOL:) He was getting really sick of me taking his picture....haha

Yay! It makes my heart happy when my kids are happy:)
