Spring is here!

After work today John and I took the boys and my niece Taylor to the park to play around. We had so much fun. We set up the volleyball net and played a couple of games. I miss playing volleyball. We used to take the boys all the time to the park but we've stop doing that. Actually we have all been going our separate ways lately. Dakota actually was very upset about us not doing things as a family like we used to. I guess as parents we sometimes get selfish with our time. It's hard juggling a full time job, being a wife and a mother AND trying to get time in for myself. I really miss the time we spend together too. Children grow up so fast we need to spend more time together. We are going to go to the park again on Thursday, I would take pictures but I need a new battery.

Dakota keeps talking about going away for college, or moving out and it makes me sad. I don't want my boys to leave. I want them to stay just the way they are forever right now.....I know keep dreaming. I hope that everyone is enjoying their families...I am going to go enjoy mine some more =)

It is so amazing how fast they grow up! Dakaota looked so different and BIG on Saturday! I couldn't believe it! He wouldn't play the games with the other 13 year old kids because he said he was fourteen and that made him one year cooler! LOL! You have such a wonderful family...and I don't know how you di it either!

Thank you! I love the picture of Tysen and Dakota, they kind of have the same facial expressions.

So true sis, so true! I keep thinking the same thing. I don't know how people say they can't wait till they're out of the house. I've even thought about stop giving them vitamins...hoping they won't grow. ~sigh~
