craft it forward

So i saw this fun "craft it forward" idea on my friend Chantells blog and it looked really fun! So I thought i would try it out...

Here is how it works...

The first 3 people to type "Jen is trying to be crafty!" in the comment box on this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you!!!

The catch is you must re-post this on your blog and give the same offer to the first 3 commenter's who will also "craft it forward."

Here are my contingencies (thanks chantell)...
1. I make no guarantee that you will like what i make!
2. What i create will be especially for you!
3. It will be done sometime this year!
4. You will have no clue what it is!
5. I reserve the right to make you something strange!
6. you must post a pic of what you win when you get it!

Who's in!!! Lets get crafty!!!

And the race is on...

The whole point of our 10 day visit to Utah was for one, Lacey's baby shower (which was a big success) and also for the AMA Supercross!!! This is first time in like 5 years the supercross has come to Utah so we were not about to miss it. We have really gotten into the races this season and have watched them all. Ya, I even know all the guys names!! Go me!! So it was tons of fun! Plus we got to have a night away (with no kids) and our good friends came with us.
Me, Nicole, and Chase!!!

Chase and Nicole!!
Thanks for coming with us guys and being our friends even though we moved to WY!!! I just have one word... chook!!!!
Here is the exciting Main Event!!!
So in Supercross the two main guys this year are Chad Reed and James Stewart!! They are neck and neck in the point race and Chad needed to win to tie James going in to the last race next weekend in Vegas. So this was a good race. My awesome photography skills got this sweet pic of both of them jumping! (It's not that good and hard to see but hey i tried right!!) Well in the end James won !! Yea!!! (that's who we like)

Big Thanks

While we were in Utah last week Ashlee was nice enough to take my kids pictures again. Like 8 months prego trying to get good angles. I owe you big time!!! Last time I loved how they turned out and they were just as cute this time. My kids (like all kids) are so cute and happy until you bust out the camera. Camden was happy and ready for her photo shoot but Cawas was a different story. But i still love how these turned out.
Thanks again Ashlee!!




This is one of my favorites!!

This was my favorite of the whole day.
It is just the perfect picture of Camdens personality!!

Cawa's was handing out smiles on the slide. They turned out stinkin cute!!!

I love them!! Thanks again Ashlee!!!

Bowling!!

We went to Utah for a few days and we had to fit in a good game of bowling. We love to bowl and don't do it near enough. Cawa's and his buddy Jax were the youngest bowlers but don't count them out. Cawa's for one has never been bowling (when he has been old enough to care) But now he has found his new favorite sport.

Lacey was teaching Camden with her bowling skills. Thanks Lace, now she bowls like a prego lady!! JK!!!

Mr. Cawa's absolutly loved this game. Holy cow!!! He would get right up there and roll the ball down the lane. The first time he tried it he took off down the lane after the ball. It was hilarious, I was dying laughing. We got a pic of Cawa's half way down the lane before i caught up with him. (I am not sure whose camera got it but someday i will get it and post it)

The only frustrating part about bowling are the dang heavy balls. Cawa's could not lift this 8 pound ball to save his life. And boy did he try. This pic doesn't show it much but he would try with all his little might until his face was as red as tomato. It was so cute.

Easter Fun

This past week has been full of fun times. Kenzie (my niece) came to hang out with us for the week. It was her spring break and Camden loves to play with her cousin, so she came to play with us. We tried to think of fun stuff to do, I hope we didn't disappoint.
They had fun painting these little bird houses.

Of course we had to dye some easter eggs.
Camden had tons of fun this year.

After our easter egg dyeing session, we had plans to go swimming so that explains the suits.

The whole crew!!

My neighbor had a fun little easter egg hunt in her back yard and the kids had so much fun. Camden had to wear her little bunny ears.

Camden found tons of eggs!!

Mr. Cawas got in on the action.


Here are the cousins with all their loot!!!

All the kiddos who came to the egg hunt.
Thanks Anne and Brittany!!


I didn't get a good pic of my kids in there cute little easter outfits. Cawa's passed out at church and slept most of the day and Camden wasn't up for a pic after that. But she did find her easter basket that the easter bunny hid. Tons of candy and he even left her a sleeping bag. She loves it and sleeps in it on her the floor in her room everynight.

Happy Easter!!!!

Fun with Uncle Jay

Last weekend my little brother, Jay came to visit us!! Lets just say we were all totally entertained from the minuet he got here. Camden has so much fun with her uncle. Probably cause he acts like a 3 year old as well.
Camden had fun being thrown in to the beanbag!!

Cawas also loves his uncle Jay. They were cuddling on the beanbag and jay was taking pictures of Cawas with his phone. His phone has a big flash and everytime jay took the pic Cawas just sat there but as soon as he saw the flash he laughed so hard.

I snagged a pic with my camera of the smile that followed the flash! Way to cute!!
Thanks for coming to visit us brother!! We love you!!

Easter Bunny Fun

Today we went to our little mall and we paid a visit to the easter bunny!! Last year we saw this same easter bunny at the mall and Camden loved it. She shook his hand and said "Nice to meet cha, Easter bunny!!" It was so cute and for the next 6 months everytime she shook anyones hand she would say that. It was really funny. She loved the bunny last year so i knew she would love him again this year, and she did. Camden walked straight up to him and gave him a big hug then sat on his lap. It was cute!!!
