Kelly made it a lil hard he usuallyy pulls funny faces,but I think we got some good ones. my sis has always been photogenetic so she isnt hard to work with at all. my nephew i think will follow in moms footsteps hes usually pretty good at cheeseing for pics! i love this cute family!

Baby KK


This is my nephew baby KK. He is soo adorable I love him so much. On this day we gave him his first hair cut and tatoo! he is getting all around and into everything. He likes to play and is always smiling. I htink now he is starting to be more comfortable going to others and he loves coming to my house to play. I can't believe he is already nine mo! Kristy is already planning his first B-day. How fun it is to be a first time mom!! He looks alot like his daddy but you can still see his mamma in him. Not like my kids they all look like Tom and Kristy! (not fair!!) I keep trying to tell Kristy to have more babies but she is relentless on waiting. I guess this means i will have more time to play with her babies as mine are getting older. I just hope mine arent old enough to baby sit the next time she has one! haha

peach days!






Peach days were so much fun. They are held in Brigham city every year. My sister in law Brenda owns a photography studio and enters a float every year. She won best of show last year. This year the them was angels. My kids got to dress up and be in the parade even Haidyn, who got to ride on the four wheeler. (the highlight of his day!) They sat so good and waved at every body. Kristy taught them how to wave like princesses. Mckaydee kept calling the parade "The marching" it was so cute. Unfourtunally on the way back to Brendas my littlest angel got the flu, it was so sad! Im really glad he didnt have to miss it though!

My Hubby!

I just wanted to take a minute and tell you all about my wonderful hubby and father to my kids. His name is Thomas Howard Houston the III i always thought that his name sounded prince like! He has always been my best friend there is nothing I keep from him.We met over 10 yrs ago thru my cousin Michael. We went hot tubbing and were inseperable ever since. He is a people person and has an ease talking to all kinds of people. He has been working for Wagstaff Crane and really enjoys it. The guys at his work request him to go with them so he works all the time.(hence the abandoned wife's club!! haha) but i am blessed to be albe to stay at home with my babies. I do miss him though! He can always make me laugh witch is great unless I'm trying to stay mad to make a point then it doesn't work in my favor!! I am so lucky to find someone that I want to be with forever. I can see us walking around when we are 80 him teasing all the grandkids and still making naughty advances toward me. He is really good at making me blush also!! He is also an amazing father. My kids miss him greatly when he is away. They love to hear his voice. He likes to rough house with them.It scares me to death but they love it.. My favorite memory ever is the look on his face everytime he held our babies for the first time! their is nothing sweeter than a fathers proud unwaivering love! I love you sweetie and always will!! xoxox


summer fun!

The kids had soo much fun this summer im kinda sad to see it go, even though i am excited to see cooler weather. We did some really fun things this summer. We loved to play in the water i think my kids were fish at some point!! I love watching how much they grow over the summer. I do think that 3 mo is a little long for them to be out Taylor seems to so much better when she has things to ocupy her all the time! Mckaydee is really coming into her own she isnt quite as shy and really loves to perform in front of us and do songs and dances around. Haidyn is such a ham and really has such a good temperment. He really lights up my life. i love the diversity they bring me. kate on jon and kate plus 8 once said everyday is soo diferent yet painfully the same!


my sweet family



My family has always been important to me i've always been a natural leader guiding with love. My kids are getting older now and I love every hurdle we have been through! Although i would'nt have thought i would have survived it all. My youngest child a son named Haidyn was born with left hemispheric cortical dysplasia( a fancy way of saing only the right side of his brain works!!) he is now 3 and i marvel at all the accomplishments this little guy has made! he just learned how to say his name last night nd was so happy he was understood! Its amazing to me the little stuff i took for granted with my girls now 6 and 5. My girls love their little brother and even though they pick on him (toughen him up!) i now we have instilled a love for him and other people with disabilities in them. I am so proud of the accomplishments all my klids have made! My Taylor is 6 and she was born with attitude! she has giving me a run for my money but, she is worth it. I hope she takes with her always the confidence she has now and she knows the right desicion even if she has to try the wrong one on first! Mckaydee has always been a mommy's girl i used to have to clean the house with her strapped to my chest! she still is curious as to what i am doing and likes to nurture others. I hope she will always keep with her the sweetness she has to offer and continues to make people work for her approval. I know my kids know I love them and as a mom, I know that's one of the best things I can offer them! My sister Kristy and I have become very close in our later years and even more so now that she has my beautiful nephew Killian. We spend so much time together since both our husbands work take them away. We have now founded a group called the abandand wifes club!! We mostly use it to go to lunch and shop but, our plan is to work out and do more productive things I PROMISE!!! lol. I just wanted to thank her for alawy being supportive and reminding me that we were sisters by chance but friends by choice!! love you all.

if i can figure this out!!

if i can figure this whole blogging thing that would be great!!
