Happiest Place on Earth Continued....

 Jake and I took everyone to Medieval Times for dinner one night...I have to say...I think it was my favorite dinner we did all week! All the kids had a great time and it was fun cheering for our knight. 

These three kiddos really got along so well for the whole trip.

 Jake was such a great sport and took the boys on any ride they wanted....since I couldn't.

 Jane arranged for the boys the get "knighted" and Cambrieal to get beautified. It was actually super cute and a ton of fun!

 The beach was my favorite part...I'm just bummed we didn't get to spend more time there. The kids had a blast and it was so gorgeous.

 It was nice having three adults and three kiddos, the odds were definitely in our favor.

 

 The World of Color was so amazing. Definitely worth the wait for sure.

 My favorite part of Disneyland was where the boys got to be Jedis. I have to admit, I'm not a huge Star Wars fan...but watching them on stage and fighting with their lightsabers brought a tear to my eye.

 Jake was such a proud step daddy at that moment.

 This is one of my favorite pictures....because below is the one taken two years ago.... my how things have changed since then.

 I'm so happy we get to be a family and travel together and share memories with each other.

The Happiest Place on Earth...

 Jake and I have been planning our first family trip for about a year now...and the first week in September is when we got to leave Utah and head for the Happiest Place on Earth. 

Here's all of the boys before we headed out for a week in Cali. My sister came and stayed at our house to watch Chewy....but it was hard leaving him for the first time. 

 Jake's mom and his niece were able to come with us as well....having three kiddos was an interesting challenge at times...I wonder how it will be when we have three of our own?

 The plane ride there, Brax was with me....

 And Jake had Carter....

 The boys got wings for being such great little flyers. The absolutely did amazing. No fussing, or freaking out of any kind.

 For our first day in Disneyland we managed to pack in a ton of things.

 We went swimming almost every night to relax and have some fun before bed.

More pics to come.

Usual Day in our Lives...

I have been concerned about Carter's eye sight for quite some time now. I had to first get his allergies under control then proceed to the eye doctor if needed. 

He failed his eye exam at his pediatrician, so off to the eye doctor we went. 

My sister came with me so she could sit with Brax while I helped with Carter...and I have to day..if she hadn't been there, I probably would have cracked. 

Here's the two goofballs messing with my phone in the lobby....

 Here's cute Carter getting his eyes checked...

 He did so well...until they brought out the eye drops...this kid absolutely went nuts! I've never had him freak out that badly anywhere before. After about 6 nurses and doctors came in to see if I was killing him....my sister and I ended up tag-teaming this crazy child and she straddled his legs and held his hands while I had his head between my legs and put the eye drops in. 

The minute they were in...Carter said, "Oh that wasn't so bad." I could have died. 

Here's the picture after the appointment was over. It was so nice to walk out of there.

 These two boys have seriously become little besties. They play together so well and really think about each other all of the time. Braxton saved his preschool snack to give Carter one day, and Carter saved his candy he won at school to give to Brax. So precious.

 Brax has become his own person lately and it's been awesome to watch it all happen. We bring Jake a "slushly" and treat just about 3 times a week. He loves it just about as much as Jake does.

 These next two pics show how much fun having boys is.....Brax got on Jake's flipflops....

 and Carter put on mine...both boys still had their socks on as well.

Loving life!
