Back again and Mavericks FIVE~

It has been awhile since I have posted. Matt and I will be married 10 years this year, we have moved Ryan is 9 and my Maverick is turning 5!  I have decided to start blogging again, looking back through my past post, made me smile because It had reminded me of all the sweet little memories me and my family have made through the years. It also made me sad to think I have missed three years of documenting.

So I have decided to start again. Even if its just a quick funny moment. This will be something my kids can look back on. They are only young once. So here it goes....

Today marks a special day. Maverick is turning five years old. Where has the time gone? Busy work schedules, Busy Life, Busy busy busy.....kids crazy, school schedules, play play play.

He started Pre-K this year and loves it. He is very passionate, hard headed and loves to cuddle.  Maverick is completely opposite from his brother. He loves to sleep in, tell you how it is and do things his own way.  OR he will be the most loveable little cuddle bug in the whole world. I really have no idea which Maverick I am going to get- but that it why this kid makes my life exciting :) He sure keeps me on my toes, that's for sure.

Mavericks favorite things right now is ALL LEGOS. I think he took after his dad and brother :)

He asked that I throw him a lego party. Pics are soon to come.

Well this is what I got so far. At least its something, and soon I will finally start to be able to document this little life of ours...

Christmas Cheer~

Ok so I know I do not keep up as much as I would like too...but life is so busy these days I barely get time for myself, let alone this blog. Though Christmas felt as if it came and went this year so quickly, we still had a wonderful holiday season to celebrate with friends and family.

Here are a couple of moments to recap on... I would like to mention that because I need to get a new camera -- soooo badly--(hint, hint) I did not take as many pictures as I should have, therefor missing out on half of the fun. But what I got what a handful of good times for you all to enjoy.

Little Green Giant










More like Mavericks Green Thumb~ Well he got it from the grandma's...
He loves to help me water the plants...and freaks out if I don't fill the water up fast enough in his little green water pitcher. Both my boys love to garden like grandma...she taught them well. Now lets hope I can keep these plants from dying. I swear they have a magic touch that I don't know about. My tomatoes and green peppers are coming ** I am so excited**
Ryan loves to grow the herbs...we have a HUGE parsley plant that he loves to pick to include in our dinner making. Grandma Hytinen and Grandma Kim you would be proud.

Halloween Night Continued...


On Halloween Night...Arin, My mom and Joe Joe came over to do some Trick Or Treating in our neighborhood. They give out the HUGE candy bars in Newport!! And everyone gets sooo into Halloween. Each house is decorated to the till... My mom dressed up as a SPIDER WITCH!

Here is grandma Kim with her boys...Joe Joe came as the race car driver.. SO CUTE



SHE IS IN LOVE WITH HER BOYS!



ARIN CAME AS A Wrapped "MUMMY"
I love that we all got to spend Halloween together!



Our "Jolly" Halloween

We started at the "Orange Circle" where they held "Treats in the Streets" for the kids. The stores open up and hand out candy to all the kids that walk by - TriCk Or TrEaT!! Ryan dressed up as a clone trooper from YOU GUESSED IT- STAR WARS! The helmet got a little hot so he showed off the hand guns instead.
And then we have our "Blown Away" Indian- Maverick his hair literally matched his outfit and fit his little personality perfect this year. I love this picture of him.
SMILE!!!! Grandma Linda decided to go along and join us in all of the fun!
Maverick doing his little Indian dance for all the spectators....
CANDY !!!!!!!! I LOVE CANDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The cousins Jacob and Dylan dressed up as our little firemen! WHAT A SHOT! Don't mess with these tough guys...
Here is the gang getting ready for the big candy load up!!! The bags were practically empty by the end of the night because every candy they got would go straight into their mouth instead of going straight into the bag.... CAN WE SAY CANDY HIGH!!! OH YAAA!
We were up late that night....
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!! 2008

OK...it looks like he is going for it- GO MAVY GO!
And that's a Big Negative Ghost Rider. GET THIS STUFF OFF OF ME. I will tell you our hands were stained for a week with RED Frosting. Maverick freaked out and kept pushing the cake away and of course every time he did more frosting got all over him!
WHAT A MESS!

It's PINATA TIME...Poor Elmo. I did feel a little weird with all of the kids hitting him.
Maverick did not seem to mind. HE LOVED IT ~ a little TOO Much!

All THE BOYS --- ALL THE COUSINS--- Can you tell we are all going to have our hands full. Ohhh Noooo.
Present Time...He loaded up ---

ELMO MADNESS! Our living room is filled with Elmo Toys sometimes in the middle of the night I hear Elmo's laugh from one of the toys going off (It freaks me out every time)...

And He drove away into the sunset...THANK YOU AUNTIE ARIN FOR MY AWESOME RIDE!
