~ Ivee is the Big 3 Yrs Old ~

Still am blown away that all these cupcakes plus the Cake pops got eaten Good Turn out glade I didn't stick with orignal plan Dinner & Cake & Ice Cream... Yowserrrrrs...

Those chocolate cupcakes were the bomb I got told... ThanX you Sams Club

Ivee & Daddy and Lillee stayed up till 12: Oclock playing with the Car Ramp
When we first purchased the car ramp it was yellow and blue boyish color I just couldn't stand for that knowing their was a girl ramp out there... now boy cars yes that is fine if she plays with those so I kept the ramp on layaway and than paid for it .... returned it and search everywhere for the girl ramp well I wasnt having any luck at all... Looked everywhere every toy store every place known to man next option order it off line... But than wait to see if it would be on back order and not be able to give it to her for her birthday... Nope didn't want to do that... So I went and registered with my best friend Noelle for her new baby boy due in Feb... at Babies R Us and sure enough right in front of my eyes... There it was the Girl Ramp and Boy was I ever so excited took back the one I had on layaway and bought the girl one... I was smiling ear to ear when I told Erik I had finally found one... I know I know the things we do for our kids... We go Nuts...

Ivee is Happy to report she LOVES playing with Trains
Thomas is her faviorte as well as her sister's faviorte
We all love to come up with AweSome Tracks
and play together
Our front living room is usually a disaster area when Train Time is in the Air
I don't mind it is fantastically worth the mess and fun we get


My Faviorte thing to do is the Cakes for the Party
This Birthday I made a Cake Stand insted of making cake
that would just go to waste
So here it is three teer Boxs Cake props
Had her little trinkets on it
that she than got to keep afterwards for her little dress up
Again everyone thought I was nuts but loved it

I figure they only have one birthday a year and that time of year I will do something special to make them shine on their birthday

Those Baby girls made me the Happiest Person on the planet when I concieved them and carried them and brought them into the world...

They gave me the title Mother

So I want to shout and Celebrate their special day along with

the day I gave birth to them.

I would do it all over again if I got another one of them to LoVe

But for Now on this Earth

I am Happy and extremenly blessed with my Family I have and will continue to have forever... Her Princess Cake Blowing making that Special Wish and one two three time to blow it out...

again try once more.... Mom try to help her out no go... than a Big blow and out goes the candle and we applause...

Her car track that she has been having her eyeballs on for awhile now...She was Happy when she opened it up and much to her surprise... You can tell she was excited and ready to play with it...

Her First fadora
She look so Stinking cute in it
and she knew it too
she walked across the room struting her stuff
Oh how this girl lights up the room...with that smile and personality

Here she is singing you better watch out

you better not cry
you better not pout
I am telling you why
Santa clause is coming to
TTTTOOOOOWWWWNNNNNN
in the highest pitch ever
LoVe it

She loves to sing and perform

and pretend

She talks really well for her age

she carries on conversations and comes up with

the funniest lines...She was excited when she got her necklace

from Grandma Linda

She made her a special pretty princess necklace

Diamond stone and all

She is Truely a Character
Has her own personality
Her own perspective on what needs to happen
Not afraid to speak her mind Good or Bad... He he he

And I laugh at her most of the time

when she thinks she is being a smarty pants

but she doesn't understand
I have already gone through this with her other

sisters and have played these games

and heard it all... Somethings she does come up with

I will have to admit .... I never heard that... or have had that happen before...

Smart Cute Cookie
I cant believe that our sweet daughter Ivee MaryBeth turned the big three years old....

Her birthday went fantastic with her going around singing you better watch out... and entertaining her guest it was awesome turn out...

The theme was Girly Girly Girly... She loves to dance and sing and express herself... boy does she ever... She is truely a completion that I am extremenly Happy and proud of...

She is almost potty trained in underwear during the day and sometimes some accidents here and there but that is due to mom not getting to her in time...

She was Happy and Smiling ear to ear and said ThanX you and was so Happy when she got to blow out her candles... She is still getting the hang of it...

Next year for sure she will be able to blow them all out...

After the mass of the party the girls got sick with Strep throat all at the same time...

So I took care of them... they are getting back tot he swing of things... On her actual birthday we didn't do that much... She wasn't feeling good and slept most of the day... When she awoke her request was Grandma & her Pa Pa and Double Cheese from Mc Donalds... Nothing like Lillee and Audree request for their birthday dinner Pineapple Shrimp & Mussels...Yes indeed...

PaPa got Ivee a Princess Cupcake cake that I wasnt expecting... We made Cake pops that turned out semi ok for my first time making them I think it was Good Enough...

It was an over all fun birthday party alot of people that said they would be there was and even some unexpected visitors which was AweSome...

It was great to have all the family there... Clint and Val and Austin couldn't make it down

their was high wind warning but they would of been there if they didn't have to worry about the high winds...She got spoiled with dozens of clothes and toys

Mostly clothes.... which she needed very badly...

She was Happy and that is what I was aming for...

ThanX you all for making her 3rd birthday celebration a hit...

One of the things that Ivee is excellent at is the way she can be so cute and pull off this sweet face and make her little finger tighter and tighter wrapped around her Daddy and I finger...

She is One of kind as well as all our children...

We have been truely blessed with the choice of the girls making us their parents

ThanX you for the Greatest gift of all... Life...

Ivee will be Turning 3 Yrs old Already

I cant believe Ivee MaryBeth is going to be three yrs old

I had to post these pictures that I took with my phone

camera not the best but truely a keeper

Ivee reminds me of Audree so much
Lillee & Erik says a bit of Brooke too

She loves to pretend and hang out with her sisters
She dances and sings and draws

She has learned alot from her older sisters
which is good and sometimes your um like A No Ivee...

other times you just go with the flow
Oh boy when she doesnt like what is going on she surely lets you know

She got this Kitty last year as a birthday present from Jayedyn

her cousin it was a used kitty and Jay bug was worried
about it... Her faviorte thing is kitty
when we leave it at home she always says
first thing to whomever house were going to
Kitty is at Home
LoVe this Outfit she got dressed herself
She is such a proud Happy Little Girl
We couldn't be more blessed and gratful for our girls
Even though sometimes there a Handful
and they think they run the house
They Our more than we can ask for
They complete our Family

Ivee Birthday Invites got to get them done...
Maybe I will just setup an event on FB and print out some for those

who will want to keep them...

LoVe you Ivee

Your doing awesome Potty training also

She tells me when she needs to go potty

and than sure enough she goes

I thought I would be extremenly sad that Ivee was my last baby

But she has made me the Happiest Momma that could ever live on the planet

I am So Happy & Blessed & Ready to watch our girls grow

Lillee was the first kid that wanted to head

back to Grandma's and stay with her & papa

Ivee didnt want to stay she wanted to get back out there

Audree's School Parade always a Hit
Ivee didn't like that she had to be in the stroller
So I gave her a try and she did AweSome

She was talking to all the kids dressed up

some where a little weird to her

but she still put on that smile and was talking

Braxton was a Nephew of mine...

Came as the most terrifying creature of the night

The Warewolf but I did just fine

Breathe Emillee Breathe

Audree played the part fantastically
like she does every year
she picks out what she wants to be
and she really shows them when she is in costume

The Night of Mommy & Daddy Show

EmberEyes Dressed up

It was a good show really hard show to do

it was the friday of the 28th of oct

and sang my heart out and had some fun.

Still had in the back of my head what was going on

but dedicated the show to Miss Lexi

I know she was in the crowd smiling

It is amazing the feeling I get when I look over and see

my Handsome Husband playing the guitar
smiling and having fun and I am apart of why
he is playing the guitar and having fun
EmberEyes has really shown us even when
trials and obsticles come in our life

We keep following our dream or having fun
We can overcome anything...

Papa jumping with the girls on the tramp

I couldn't believe my eyes

this was definetly a kodak moment...

Papa plays with his grandkids all the time

Just never thought I would see him

up jumping on the tramp and doing this

The Girls were having a Blast...

Me & Erik took down the Tramp for the winter
the girls really didn't jump on it during the summer
they enjoyed it more the fall time
So they were sad when it was coming down but
we explained to them it would last longer if we took it down

So me and Erik Wheeled it over on the side of the shed
and took the net and legs off and put it away nicely for next yr.
where moving our backyard around.
It will be a challenge to move the swing set
and sandboxs but were putting it on the shaddier
side of the yard more use out of it
and having it right outside the back door I can watch the girls
and see them swinging and not have to walk
to the other end of the house to see how they
were doing.
Plus they will be out of the sun
No Sun Cancer for my girls

Pumpkin Carving Once again Thomas House

It has been an annual thing to do

we have started it over at our house for now 5 yrs

We have a little something to eat

and carve

laugh and have fun

that is all worth the planing and preparaion.

I was more inside taking care of the food and

getting all that situated for the kids

than I could actually be carving with all

but I did it get done.

Fun things we do for our familys

in the end it is totally worth it all

Grandma & Papa buy all the pumpkins and everyone

pitches in for the potluck

SpoOkTaCkular Fun

The Pumpkin Turn outThis Day was a CraZy One

Since Erik only gets one day off during the week

We really don't have time to just

go and do

So This year I made it manitory

that we use the free events that we have

around us that the girls & I and Erik would enjoy

and boy did we ever.

We Spent $30 Dollars Total for our outting...

Moring We went and got Ciniamon Rolls and Mc Donalds

Breakfast burritos

Chocolate milk for the girls

Coffee for Dad & Mom Yummm
Lunch time we had a Mc Double for the kids

Chicken Wrap for Mom & Dad

Sundae

Than at wheeler farm dad bought tickets for Hay Ride

and treats for the girls and a drink for us to share

We went to the Witches at Gardner Village Crowded but totally

worth it..

Pictures of posing the girls I think not to much going on

so mostly candids... Which I lOVe...

We walked around there and explored

it was way fun.

Than it was off to Wheeler Farm

Played at the park they have there

and it was fun to see the girls just slidding and playing

Dad & Mom played to

We went and looked at the animals on the farm
Ivee got a Kick out of the piggy since her movie at this time

is Charolets Web with the real animals.

Lillee her faviorte was the Lambs

Yes Lammie she said oh she loved them

and would of stayed around them

if she could all day...

I remember Ivee saying Ewww Stinking piggy

We went on a Hay ride around the farm it was fun

The girls loved being able to touch the cows and the horses

They stood by the fence until the cow went right over by them

They couldn't believe their eyes when it

wonder towards them.

Audree said she was the ghost whisper for the cow

The Simpliest things we do for the kids and how they appreciate the small things
we must be doing something right as parents

Just us having a Good Time at this Free Adventures
It was fun and the girls were AweSome little explorers
really showed what we have been missing out .
We did alot of fun activities for Halloween
and it didnt even cost that much
Memories our pricless
Time spending with your family is priceless
sometimes we let life get in our way of what really matters
We cant do that anymore
Cause I have come to the conclusion if you do that

Than Your Not Really LiVing your just living for the day to come and past

And that isnt fair to the ones that our counting on you to go and explore with them

They don't know what is out there until you figure it out yourself

LoVe The HaLLoWeeN & the Holidays to Come

Forever Snowflake

I am finishing up the final touches to the song

I am pleased with how this song has turned out & the melody

When I went into band pratice and just started playing

the whole band joined in and we made yet another master piece

I am recording the song with Aqustic guitar and keyboard

and if I decide to turn it into an EmberEyes song

I will do so...

Just not to that point in time

I didnt attend her funeral service the pain and sorrow was

to hard for me to bare.

I was home and cleaning up and spending the day with Audree

just me and her doing our thing

and I had this feeling to drive over to the gravesite

considering that everyone would be gone

Much to me and Audree's Surprise we wasnt alone

Ohma was there talking to Audree and comforting her

and talking about stories and Audree kneeled down by the grave

and just wep...

It was good to do so to weep in someone presense

not alone

Great Aunt Patti gave me her extra funeral program

which was very appreciated.

Meant alot to me

again... Good Healing process...

I didnt say my goodbyes I said Good Journey till we see her smile again

Now it is just memories and scrapbooks I can look at

LoVe to Family & Friends
