hello out there.

Isn't he just such a CUTE baseball player???? I love it.

This is what happens at my house when mommy is stuck in bed because of RA. The kids are silly, messy, and creatively entertaining. I didn't even take this pic- that was all kk. Best part? Lily is still in her diaper in this pic. Yeah, it was a moment for the memory books.

I realize like zero people read this blog. That's ok. Sometimes its just nice to write out my thoughts, for myself to read? ok, maybe I'm just a crazy. Lets see- I last wrote in April- SCARY April. AKA: worst month EVER. But its nice to be able to say about the first week into May, that flare finally lifted a bit. And just in time too! We have been BUSY!!

-the kids finished school!! FINALLY! I am glad to have them home.

-Jackson started baseball.

-Kk started softball

-We went to Disneyland!

-We played in Newport with Mari!

-Patrick and I went to Paris!!!!!!!!

-I fell in LOVE with Paris! (It is seriously amazing)

-I went out to take care of poor sweet Mari after her foot surgery.

So pretty much I watched movies with Mari for a week. :)

-the 4th of July!

-Lily turned 3!!

-Lily decided that using the potty is fun! (HUGE step over here:)

-Mari came out to UT to visit!

You tired yet? Cause I am. It was a LOT of travel, and embarrassing at times (like Patrick packing my mattress topper and hauling it out to CA with us, cause he is paranoid that I wont sleep well. Or having pneumonia in Paris, around all of Patrick's work peeps- yeah embarrassing).

But the fabulous news??? I didn't have a flare. Not a one. SO. SO. SO. SO. GRATEFUL. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Father in Heaven for that amazing blessing. And the other fabulous news? Kk went undefeated in her softball team, and got the 1st place trophy and T-shirt. And that's just cool. :)

Now I have pics, that I will post eventually.
