Gavin and Collin's 6th Birthday Party!

The Lightsaber invitations

We had about 25 BOYS at Gavin and Collins 6th birthday party.... bounce house and huge slide, Jedi training, fighting Darth Vader, pizza, Yoda soda, cake and tons of presents and good friends!

Hendrix had fun playing with Grandma Lala on the bounce house slide
Aunt Ash came to help... thank goodness because it was a little crazy!
Pizza time!
Darth Vader heard that the boys were doing Jedi training and came to test their skills.
Collin getting ready to fight Darth Vader
Mimi was in charge of the Jedi Training and did a great job!
Gavin showing his skills
Collin showing off his best moves

Happy Birthday to You.... Gavin and Collin!
The Jedi force was too strong for Darth Vader at the party!
Gavin and especially Collin were thrilled that he came to their house! He even left his light saber for them... which Collin carries around to let everyone know where it came from!
Party Favors!
All of the kids took home a gift bag and their own Jedi Robe... Thank you to Grandma for making 30 Jedi Robes!

Happy 6th Birthday Gavin & Collin

6 Years ago!  
Collin on the Left and Gavin on the Right
Collin 5 lbs 3 oz
Collin getting his foot prints done
Gavin 5 lbs 8 oz
Collin had a valve in his heart had not closed yet since the twins were 5 weeks early, so he had to stay in the NICU for 3 weeks. 
$158,000 in medical Charges later (thank goodness for good insurance).... he was ready to come home to us!
First time in their Nursery together
Finally home as a family!
Love this picture of them on their first Christmas Morning... Santa knew just what they wanted! 
Gavin is in the red checking out all of the stocking stuffers!
On Sunday we went over to Mimi and Papas for a Birthday Celebration!
Mimi made a delicious Lasagne
The boys couldn't choose a Baskin Robbins ice cream cake flavor since their tastes are so different so the chose to bring everyone their favorite ice cream! 
Gavin likes Daquiri ice and sherbert and Collin is a mint and regular chocolate chip lover.

Hendrix loves to push the lawn mower at Mimi and Papas! 
When we got home the boys all opened up their Bionicle toys and put them together by themselves!  I was so proud of them for reading the directions and figuring it out!
Happy Happy Birthday my Babies!

Swirlz Family Night!

We walk to Swirlz frozen yogurt every week for family night and this week Mimi joined us! She brought Carson this book about Tommy Trojan that he carries everywhere with him.  
Hendrix loving his yogurt
yumm... good!
Carson loves to get his own toppings.  Last week we were eating dinner at the pizza place next door and Carson disappeared.  I was just starting to panic when he came walking out of the yogurt shop with a yogurt.  Kris went in to pay for it and the boy said he looked like he knew what he was doing and was so cute so he just let him have the yogurt.  Such a funny boy.
Collin being silly
Gavin and Collin enjoying their creations
Of course, Hendrix licks every last bit off his fingers!

Go King Cobras!

Soccer season has begun!  We started off the season at opening day.
Collin on the giant slide!
Carson and Gavin go together!
Hendrix fell asleep with his smoothie.
A little messy from his smoothie but so sweet!
Their buddy, Easton is on their team and in their Kindergarten class too!  
Gavin enjoying the half time oranges... so refreshing!
Go Gavin, # 8!
Hendrix wants to be part of the team, so Papa played with him on the sidelines. 
Collin is #11.. ready for anything!  We have such a great team with wonderful parents and kids, it's going to be a great season for the King Cobras!

St George

To celebrate Grandma Marilyn's 80th Birthday our entire family met in St. George.  Kris was on business in Hawaii so Ashley made the drive with me.. which I don't know if she will ever do again!  It was so fun to see extended family and do a little catching up.
Happy 80th Birthday Grams!
We spent some time out by the pool
Papa was kind enough to watch the 3 older boys so My mom, sisters and I could do a little shopping.
Everyone enjoyed seeing the play, Annie, at Tuachan Theater.
Gavin and Collin loved playing their DS's
All 5 of Grams and Gramps' Children! I never realized my Dad is the tallest.. and he is the baby!
Our family 
I LOVE my Sisters  XOXO
It was great to spend time with Aunt Jenna!!
She was the first to witness Hendrix say " There you go!"  or "Dare go!" I had heard him say it once or twice before but he would never say it on command.
It was a FAST trip... Less than 24 hours after leaving home, we were headed back again... but it was a great trip!
