Catch up of all Catch ups!

Here is our life the last few months!! I suck at blogging and writing in my journal so this is it for my history. Hopefully I will get this in a book eventually!!

We spent a lot of time in playing in all the snow we got this year. Foster loves to be outside and loved, sledding, skiing and making things out of snow.
Collins still loves to sit it the cubby on my entertainment center, she is almost getting to big for it.
We got a new nephew in January- His name is Seyban and he is definitely a Reese

This is our bull we built one snowstorm. Neither Brennen or I are very artistic so don't judge our abilities please.




Both of my children have been blessed with big heads and big bellies.  We were trying to get a side profile but Collins was not cooperating.

Here is Foster holding his cousin. He sure does love him and has been very good with him.



Bayli has grown up, Dang it! It has been fun to watch her grow up and have fun this last year of high school. She did not disappoint, she is a great person and we have learned a lot from watching her lead as head cheerleader. Of course it all came to an end and we had to document the last hoorah!















We got a hoverboard for Christmas and the kids (including Brennen) have loved riding it around our little living room and kitchen this winter.

Foster took this picture of Collins, she loves to push her stroller around and loves to put her babies on the stairs to sit.
We built our snowman family- including champ one afternoon when the snow was perfect for packing, Foster would stay out there til he turned blue if I let him.

and of course we have to build a Ninja turtle- once again don't judge.

Brennen has been begging to get a new truck. I finally gave in because we paid of the car. This is his new ride. I will admit it is nice to have the 4 doors instead of just an extended cab.

 We took Foster skiing. He picked up on it so fast. His balance is great, still just working on the stopping thing, lets just say he is not timid at all.


We hit up the jump zone a few times too, Foster has got some skills when it comes to the trampoline.

One morning my phone started to ring, I looked at it and it was a face time call from me, I answered it and to my surprise it was Foster calling from my iPad. Don't ask me how he figured it out, but you can see by his face how excited he was. 

 Bayli and her friend Hannah before the dance.

 The girls were twinning one tuesday at Tara's. We didn't even plan it, great minds think alike.

 I got to meet up with  my high school buddies at Maddox. Of course it was a great time.

 Foster and Collins love to ride around the farm. Foster is a pretty good driver.

Grandma and Grandpa took Foster and Collins to Hardware Ranch to see the elk.

 The jump zone.

 Both of my kids are fish, they scare the crap out of me because neither of them understand that they can't swim.


 We went to the children's museum in Ogden. Foster loved it and so did Collins. They were too excited that they just went from place to place and didn't enjoy each section much. Foster is milking the cow in this pic.
 This is probably the closest he will get to riding a horse, since he is allergic to my favorite animals:(







 Peek-a-boo


 This is Collins expression of choice lately. no expression really!
 Brennen has decided to be a fisherman now, great I know, as if he doesn't already have enough hobbies.
 Foster has gotten real good at riding his bike, already has gotten a flat tire too.
 We went to St George over Brennen's birthday with some friends, we did a little hiking, swimming, and of course lots of eating. Collins loves riding in the backpack. We had a great time, besides when Foster literally choked on a lifesaver in the middle of the trail. Thank goodness for the hole in the middle it was letting him get air in and out!






We spent a lot of time at the cabin this winter. It sure is beautiful up there.





 Foster loves all his cousins and getting to spend time with them. Its really all he asks to do. Treysen is real good to play with him even though there is 7 years between them.


 The Reese Cousins. Don't mind Collins outfit, she dumped my whole water on her in dinner and was shirtless so she wore her big coat around the rest of the night.





Easter egg hunt at Grandmas.


































Easter Sunday pics.





















 Thursdays are my favorite day of the week. These three are so much fun to be around and so much fun to watch play together, I sure am grateful to be able to be home part time so that I can spend time with them.





Tucker gets to come sometimes too. I couldn't say no to eating ice cream in the truck.




Seyban gets to come to our house on thursdays too. He is a really good baby, but does not like noise. and my house is noisy. He gets a panicked look in his eyes every time he sees Collins because she is so load. If anyone startles him he is not happy. 

 Brennen and Foster had the opportunity of a lifetime on March 30th thanks to aunt Whitli. They got to be co-captians for the Jazz vs. Warriors game. Of course the reason this was so cool was because Steph Curry was of course the captain for the Warriors. They got jerseys, to meet players, and got front row seats to warm-ups. But the highlight of course was standing at mid court and shaking hands with the best player in the NBA- hands down. Lets just say Brennen was on cloud nine.


































 Collins loves to be like the big kids, when they have backpacks on she wants in on it. She also loves her binky, we have been trying to ween her off and it has not been easy. She loves that thing.

 Cabin fun.


 Grandpa Kelly's b-day
 Brennen dresses her on mondays. He isn't thinks its ok to mix boy clothes with girl clothes
 We went and visited grandma Beths grave on mother day. The clouds were beautiful on the horizon.


 Collins playing in the mud.

 Bayli had here final golf season as a Bobcat. I got to watch her a couple times and was always impressed. She has gotten to be quite good. She counted every stroke. Just getting through 18 holes mentally is hard enough. I hope she is glad she did it. It was a nasty spring for golf and several matches were played in rain and wind.
















 Monday morning selfies.


Yogurt-stache

Late- night tramp shenanigans. These two love to jump. Foster has learned flips cartwheels and round-offs from watching his older cousins on the tramp. I have been impressed with his skills!!


 Champ gets to go on runs with Brennen and loves the mountains.

Everynight before bed the kids give each other bedtime hugs and kisses.
 We had a fun memorial weekend at the cabin, there was a lightening storm right as we got the fire going. Brennen was thoroughly impressed with his shot of lightening in the distance.
