Well 5 days before Case turned 5, I turned 30! YES, I'm OK with this, (I THINK)!!! Thanks to my wonderful Husband I had a great WEEKEND, yes that is right he spoiled me the WHOLE WEEKEND, man he loves me! I got to go shopping, out to eat, a movie, and then on Sunday (my real birthday) he had his Sunday School class come sing to me, and then we went to a friends and had a "party" and played Volleyball and ate cake and Ice Cream. I did make my own cake, but Glenn did ask me if I wanted him to make, but I told him that I would do it! So all in all I had a wonderful 30th Birthday! Thanks everyone for a blast of a day! XOXO ya'll
Well my little wii man turned 5 this year, wow time sure flies!! We celebrated his Birthday by having a Birthday party with some family and friends! Then on his actually Birthday we went to Wahooz (you'll see some of those pictures in an early post "Summer Fun"). Case wanted a Mario and Luigi cake and of course I went all out on it, and made it harder then it had to be, but I do think it turned out pretty good. Thanks to all the family and friends that helped up celebrate Case and his special Birthday!!! XOXO Case we love you. Check out the album below for the pictures.  |  | | A photo album by Smilebox |
Avery is very much a girl, she loves to change clothes all the time, she likes to pick what she wants! I can't even keep up with how many times she is dressing and undressing!!! hehe, but don't under estimate her, she is very much a tomboy too, just like her mother, she can get down and dirty, but also likes to look pretty doing it! LOL!!! Not only does she like to dress up, wear shoes and get her nails painted, she loves to shop also, so it looks like I got my shopping buddy, since the boys HATE to shop! Avery in my Cowboy Hat, Black Heels, and just a t-shirt that explains her ALL THE WAY!!!  Avery in a very girly outfit, black pants, pink tutu, Green butterfly shirt with a crown!  Avery carrying my bags, she loves the pink Victoria Secret Bag! 
My sister Nicky and her Family came up with my brother Devin's son Trace to enjoy the 4th of July with us. We were very busy and had a lot of fun, we went and did many things together and we really enjoyed having them here with us! Some of the things we did were visit the Idaho State Penn, went to Camels Back Park, went to Caldwell for the celebration, went to the Melba Fireworks (which were the best FIREWORKS that we have every seen, we are planning on going back next year), and then went to Meridian Speed Way for the races, and Fireworks. Thanks Nicky and Jeremy for coming up and spending time with us!
We are having blast so far this summer! We have done a lot of fun things together, here are some of the fun things we did!

"SURPRISE" we went to Califorina last minute. We have a good friend (Todd) whose a car dealer, that needed to take a boat to Sacramento for the boat auction, so instead of just him going, we all decided to go, so we all piled into two vehicles and decided to wing it to and in California. Some of the many things we did are; we stopped in Reno overnight and stayed at Boomtown Hotel/Casino/Shops/Playland for the kids, that was a blast. Then we woke up the next morning and dropped the boat of in Sacramento and then off we went to the Big Redwoods and Santa Cruz, that was fun to see the kids enjoy the ocean and the beautiful BIG trees. We decided to stay in Fairfield, CA, so we drove back to the hotel in Fairfield and crashed in our beds that night, next morning we rode a ferry from Vallejo to San Francisco and WALKED the whole day, (by the way this is Tridon's Birthday), we crashed this night also! The next day I think was the funnest for the kids, we went to Six Flags in Vallejo, this park was like Sea World, the Zoo, and the Amusement Park all rolled up into one, it was a blast. We again crashed this night also. On the 1st of June we drove 10 plus hours from Fairfield, CA to Nampa, ID, wow that was a long drive. Considering how long we drove and much we walked the kids did great and we plan on doing this again, we hope super soon. Check out the slide show below!
My Oldest in 9, wow does that make me feel old! He turned 9 on May 30 in California, so we had a party for him on the 27th of May. It was just a quick little family party with Cake and Ice Cream, (Mint Ice Cream Cake Roll)and Presents! Thanks to all that showed up last minute. Check out the California Post to see more of how we celebrated Tridon's special day! Below is a collage of some of the pictures from his party, enjoy.
WOW, I can't believe my little man is done with Preschool. It is soooo weird for me to think that he will be going to the big boy school with his brothers. I am soooo excited for him, he is growing up so fast, it's such a bitter sweet moment for a mother. You are so excited for them to accomplish something, but so sad that they are growing up so fast. Good Job Case and we are proud of you! XOXO from Mommy and Daddy! Check out the album below to see how it went.
Well to explain the title, I have decided that Case's new nickname from his mommy is "Wii Man" for 2 reasons, 1-because he is little for his age, 2-he LOVES the Wii! He is sooooo funny. I snapped 2 funny photos of him just yesterday, the 1st one is him "doing" his homework. I set him up to the table to do his homework, and next thing I know he passed out, drooling on his homework. 2nd he came out of his room after getting dressed from his bath with underwear on his had. What a silly boy, I love him soooo much and he is such a joy to have in our family. He may be small, but he sure makes a great big wonderful impact on our family.  
Case will be 5 in July, so we think it's about that time for him to try and ride his bike without his training wheels. Glenn took his training wheels off, and off they went. He is still learning, but I thought I would share some of the learning experience.  Of Course we put on the helmet, and we definitely needed it!!! hehe  Daddy with Case  OWWW, and we fell, but he got right back on and tried again.  We will continue to keep trying and I don't doubt it will take one to two more times for him to get it.
Avery has a cousin named Jeremy , she is one month younger and they seem to get along very well. It is soooo cute when they play and get along. Here is a cute picture of them. 
This year for Dallas' Birthday we made it a weekend event due to the fact that his Birthday is hard to celebrate with it being on Sunday the Sabbath Day. So on Friday the 14th his Grandparents from Utah surprised him by coming up for a visit for the weekend, then at 1:30 6 of his friends from church showed up and he had a fun birthday party full of games, a pinata, cupcakes, and presents. He had a blast. Then that night we went to TGI Friday's for dinner, with Grandpa Wilson and Grandma Ann. Saturday we woke up got ready for the day and then went to the Zoo, had a BBQ with family that night and getting lots of good gifts, then on Sunday we gave him his 2 last gifts, went to Church, then went to our friends Todd and Angies for a Dinner they fixed for us. When we got home we were surprised to see that the "Birthday Elf" (Aunt Christy with helpers) decorated our house for Dallas' Birthday, he loved it and thought it was cool that they did that for just HIM!!! We love you Dallas and hope you have had a great 7 years with us and will continue to love being with us, and being you. You are a wonderful child and we are glad that you joined our family! We love you!!! Love- Mommy, Daddy, Tridon, Case, and Avery!!! (Enjoy the Slide Show Below)
Tridon had his first pinewood derby on May 6th, 2010. He was soooo excited about this part of scouts and has been for a long time. Glenn and Tridon made a really awesome car, it turned out was neat. Tridon did as much work on it as he could, and Glenn did the parts that he would have a hard time with. Glenn cut it out, and shaped it, then Tridon sanded it, they both spray painted it yellow, and then taped it up for the stripe and then helped Tridon with the black spray paint, then they put the wheels on an also added the "weight", then the final detailing the asked Me for that, so I got to work and put the number the lights, licence plate, and the window color, plus added bumpers. We never thought that it would do soooo well. We are all super proud of his car, are we are excited for the next year.  | | | Free picture slideshow personalized with Smilebox |

This year for Easter we decided to have it down in Utah! My sweet Mom was able to get us some rooms down at the Hotel and we got to do a bunch of swimming in the hotel pool! Some of the many things we did were Swimming of course, eat yummy food prepared by my every so talented Brother Devin, my Daddy wanted all of us as a Family to go see "How to Train your Dragon" so we did, and it was a blast, us girls got to get Glitter on our toes, thanks to my sister having a Glitter Toes party, the boys got to Golf, and last but not least we had a very yummy Easter Lunch/Dinner and a Easter Egg hunt! We had a blast and we hope to do it again super soon! Check out our fun below...
Before I wrote that we put the boys in Wrestling, well last night was their first matches. They got to wrestle 3 times each, and were paired up with kids that were their age and weight. They all did really well. Tridon didn't surprise us on how well he did, he pinned all 3 of his guys and he is very FAST and very FURIOUS. He is a squirmier and get out of just about anything. He was having so much fun that he was having a hard time waiting tell his next match. Dallas on the other hand didn't have such a great night. Glenn and I think that he still doesn't get the concept of how to do it, plus he is just to nice, he didn't want to hurt anyone so he didn't wrestle as well as he does with his brothers. He won one and lost two, so he was sad, but we are still very proud of him for trying. He told us that he didn't want to do it anymore, but I told him that he had to finish out the season, and then if he didn't want to do it next year he didn't have too. Case SURPRISED us. He did so well and loved every minute of the actually wrestling. He has new nickname, he now called "Leech", I know it's not very flattering, but that is what he looked like. He wouldn't let go at all, he even did a summer sault with a kid, Case was laying on this kids back, and the kid flipped and did a summer sault and Case went with him, and still ended up on top some how. I was told later that Case's cousin Scott told him to get a hold of the kid and not to let go no matter what, well Case listened and did what he was told. We are soooo proud of all 3 of the boys. They all tried their hardest and did great. Check out their pictures below! If you would like to come, please do. I have the schedule in the next post down.
