Merry Christmas everyone! Here is a card that I put together and was going to print out and send to everyone but what can I say I am just not very good when it comes down to doing stuff like that so I hope you still can enjoy it and I'll try to do better next year! I am sure you are already tired of seeing our beautiful faces but hey what can I say :) Hope everyone has a wonderful day as we celebrate Christmas for He is the reason for the season! Love, Katie

This is so beautiful I just had to post it. It is perfect for this season. Hope you enjoy!

This is Landon's first bubble bath. He wasn't quite sure about them. Last year Brendan got a nice train set from his parents for Christmas last year, that we put together for fun a couple night ago. This kids had a lot of fun helping him put it together. It is a favorite memory that Brendan has from when he was a kid with his dad and hopefully it will bring good memories for our kids in the years to come. Getting ready to put it together Brendan explaining how things work Landon had a lot of fun just playing in the Train box and later when it was put together chasing the Train around in circles, it was quite comical

We had a Rogers Christmas party on Saturday and had the best Santa Clause ever! He was so nice and gave the kids stuffed animals. Anyway, can't for Christmas to come so the kids will chill out! I have a sign that says ' Santa please hurry the kids are driving me nuts!!!' So true!

This is what I did today and had a lot of fun doing them. The trees I have had the wood cut out for them for a couple years from an enrichment activity and never got around to painting them. Anyway, I was at the scrapbook store and saw their cute Christmas paper and the thought popped into my head to make them like this instead of boring old paint. Anyway, I am very pleased with the out come This 'C' Block is NOT for Christmas it happens to be the colors I use in my Kitchen!!! Brendan keeps teasing 'C for Christmas cute!' I had so much fun doing them that now I need more fun things to do! Any fun cute ideas? p.s. since everine else seems to be posting pics of their trees and decorations I thought hey might as well do mine too. My tree is blocked off from Landon and also has no decorations from a 1/4 down. Here's how my boutique buy looks up on the wall. I am loving it!!

A few people asked who took my pics. A lady in my ward Sherri Riffey took them and I love them! She took the pics in June that I did for Fathers day too

I love this picture because it really shows the silly side of Kiley. Also there is a funny story behind this pic. Kiley gets this wide eyes sometimes when it comes to pictures and I call them her physco eyes. So when it came down to her time to get individuals she kept getting physco eyes and I would say 'physco eyes Kiley, laugh then smile for the pic' Anyway, she lost it a little if you can't tell down below. Here is an example of her 'phsyco eyes' Here is the end result, My beautiful little Kiley.

Here is a pic that we had taken last week. I had fun photo shopping it. Anyway, I will post a new pic everyday of the week from our session.

Well we got to start our holiday out early and went to my parents in Eagar on Tuesday night. When we got there Landon puked, he had puked the night before too but we thought it was something he ate because he was fine all day. We were wrong :( Wed. we just hung out with my mom and took the kids to the park. (like my mom's ear plug's? Kids get a little crazy :) Wed. night me and Brendan got together with a few of my buddies from High school and their Honey's and played games and ate junk. It was fun to get us all together because it has been awhile. (sorry no pics my camera was out of batteries) Thursday was Turkey day Brendan went and played ultimate frisbee with my cousins he had a lot of fun. I was too much of a valley girl and didn't want to be out in the cold so I stayed home. We had some yummy food and my dad's famous Squash pie (oh soo yummy!) Then we hung out some more watched the ASU game and played some Turkey Foot (aka Chicken Foot, it is a domino gam...

You Are Pumpkin Pie You're the perfect combo of uniqueness and quality. You're able to relate to many types of people with many different tastes. But you're by no means generic or ordinary. In fact, you're one of the most original people around. Those who like you are looking for something (someone!) special. You tend to confuse people when they first meet you. You're not as complicated as you seem. Even though you have a lot of spice and flavor to you, you're never overpowering. You are a calm and comforting force in people's lives. What Kind of Pie Are You?

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope your day is great!! I came out with my new Christmas/Winter Templates today so check them out! http://www.matiekay.blogspot.com/

This is what we do when we go to Pima watch a bunch of Movies that are AWESOME on the big screen! We enjoy it more then actually going to the movies.

Well here it is. I have been wanting to do something really fun with my hair and went all out. I dyed it brown and added Violet highlights. Ever since high school I have wanted a really fun color in my hair and Marie my sis-in-law fulfilled it for me and I absolutely love it!!!!!! Thanks Marie. I also chopped my hair if you didn't notice and LOVE that too!!!! I always love to express my fun side and finally got the courage to do it with my hair. Anyway, did I mention that I love it?????? Well I DO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alright I just came out with my very own templates!!! So if you all wouldn't mind posting that I have new templates that would be great! www.matiekay.blogspot.com Also let me know what you think of them please :) I hope people will like them.

So tonight me and Brendan went with Heidi and Curtis (some friends from our ward oh yeah Kiley came too, to play with Taite their daughter) to watch the Phoenix Roadrunners play. Me and Brendan were 10 mins late and Stockton Thunder (California team) had already scored 4 points! It stayed like that for a while. Anyway, after some good fights (there were a lot!) we finally scored 1 goal in the 2nd period. Then in the 3rd period we scored 5 points and won the game 6-5 it was AWESOME!!! Thanks Ryan's for inviting us we had a blast! Sorry everybody if I bore you with all the game details but hey what can I say I am excited about my first game!

This is great! This is how I feel and I know it's going to get more crazier as my kids get older

I just wanted to say a quick thanks to my friend Alan who provided the beautiful picture for my header. Thanks for helping me make my blog look great!

Gaige got a make your own bouncy ball kit for his birthday and we had fun making some balls. They were super easy you just put this powder in the ball mold then put it in water for a minute and let sit 3 min. and wahla your very own ball. Here are the results:

Here they are if you can't tell what they are then that's just to bad you can just smell my feet or give me something good to eat!

Happy Birthday Gaigie Boy! I can't believe he is four already!! Here are four things I love about him: 1. Love how caring he is of your needs, especially Kiley's he worships her. 2. Love his hugs and kisses 3. Love his beautiful big eyes and lips 4. Love his Zest for life!

I know you guys didn't miss us back we came back anyway! First thanks Josh and Meagan for watching K-dubbie I really appreciate it. Well after 33 rides we were pretty worn out but it was a blast. Gaige moved very slow and wanted to walk by himself all the time and not hold our hands which got pretty old. Kiley just had a bunch of fun and loved every ride we went on. The lines weren't to bad the longest wait we had was 30 min, some rides had a 45 min. wait but we did fast passes for those. Thursday was great as far as people, Friday was a little more crowded so I would recommend going M-Th during the fall or maybe winter so it wouldn't be to crowded. I met up with my cousin Jacob who happened to be there on Friday and saw a girl I graduated with, so that was fun. Saturday before we left we went to Long Beach and went to the Aquarium. It was so neat seeing all the different fish etc... Then we ate at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. very Yummy and a fun environment. Then we headed home ...
