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 =)

BEST DAY EVER!




Today Dakota got to meet his favorite Duck Bobby Ryan. It was such a neat experience. When he was getting his shirt signed by Bobby Ryan and Andrew Ebbet, I told Bobby that he was Dakota's favorite player and his face lit up and he said " Awww thanks buddy". I thought that was totally cool. What a nice guy! I thought even if he wasn't sincere it still made us feel good and left a great impression. We walked away feeling that we made his day. He also got Ryan Carter's and Ryan Whitney's signature. We saw Ryan Getzlaf but could get his signature(too many people). Hockey players are so nice and seem really genuine not like some other sports players.

Logan had fun but I think that was because we were at Knott's Berry Farm. I know John was excited because this is his team and he loves them! I had fun seeing all three of my boys happy.
