Friendly Reminder

On Sunday we were making a desert and Alyviah was helping. She had been told numerous amounts of times to back away from the kitchen aide while it was spinning, she did, so our back was turned for literally 5 seconds when the most heart breaking scream was heard.  

Alyviah had leaned over just real quick to get a peek and it caught her hair and twisted extremely tight.

The only way to get her head free was to cut it, so on the top of her head she has a nice large patch of one inch hair and on the side of her head a small area where the hair was pulled out so she looks a little bald.

We are so grateful that her hair is the only thing that was lost. Her head was pretty bruised but if we had not reacted quickly or had been anywhere but one step away from the off switch it would of kept spinning and it could have easily taken off her tiny little scalp.

So while the Holidays are coming and your making all those yummy treats, never leave your kitchen aide running unattended even if your only one step away.

FIRSTS!!

Wow I have not blogged in FOREVER && so much has happened

This will be the post of all posts so get ready :)

ALYVIAHS FIRST DANCE CLASS!!

She LOVED it! I'm a little biased because she's mine, but I'm pretty sure she's the cutest little dancer around! Before Class she would not stop looking in the mirror and practicing!

 Emma is in her class & she is so happy about that! They are so cute together.

MARLEY'S FIRST PONYTAIL :)
She loves her picture taken haha

ALYVIAHS FIRST HAIRCUT!

MARLEY'S FIRST TIME DUMPING OUT THE ENTIRE CEREAL BOX
She thought she was so funny, and went and got her broom to help clean up!

FIRST TIME TAKING THE GIRLS TO LAGOON
Alyviah & Marley had a blast...next time if we ever go again, I think we'll leave them at home haha.

This picture cracks me up!

ALYVIAHS FIRST "GARDENING" OUTFIT 
She loves to go water the plants and dry spots in the grass. One day she said I have to get my gardening outfit on and this is what she came out with...she makes me laugh!! 

MARLEYS FIRST TIME SHOVING A WHOLE MARSHMALLOW IN HER MOUTH
I'm so proud :)

a Reason to Celebrate

LOGAN GOT INTO THE POLICE ACADEMY!

I am so proud of him and we are very blessed he got in!!

There were 29 spots open and 49 people there with applications. For over 2 hours they sat in a class room while they went through each application, and only 4 people didn't do it correctly so 45 people and only 29 spots....they drew out of a box! If you drew a number 1-29 you were in,  and our new lucky number is 10!!

He is the youngest person to get in by 5 years..I know he'll do great & were so excited :)

4th of July Fun

Can I just say..I LOVED having the 4th of july on a Sunday!

We were able to spread out our fun for 3 days..and it was haaamazzing :)

I love July it's my favorite month.

On Saturday we went shopping for the girls outfits for Stadium of Fire..I know so late but it took me till then to convince logan they definitely needed them :)

We first went to Outback then over to Stadium of Fire!

I am in LOVE with Carrie Underwood she did amazing!!

The girls were great..we had ear plugs for Marley so she slept on me...till the fireworks started, she watched them pretty good until they got really fast then she got scared!

Lyvi of course had the ipod watching brother bear with huge Bose headphones on (they don't let any sound in which was so nice since lyv HATES loud noises). so the singing and fireworks would of made her histerical.

Logan suprisingly also really liked the show..he was dreading it because the last one we went to was Miley Cyrus..nuff said right..right!

The rest of the weekend consisted of Family~Friends~Fireworks~And a lot of fun :)

Of course I  forgot my camera to all those festivities but enjoy the picture overload of Stadium of Fire :)

 They are always fighting when trying to take pics together..usually because lyvs trying to make her participate haha.

This is Marleys "Cheese" face..it cracks me up!
