More catching up 2014

I finally decided that I will never catch up at the rate I am going and I need to get the kids blogs caught up as well so I decided that even though Im sure I will miss some things Im going to  highlight the past year and at least be up to date from here on out! So here it goes -

BIRTHDAYS! Bailee turned 15, Raden turned 11, Lexi turned 9, Jadie turned 7, Koston turned 3, Jared turned 35 and I turned 37. I sadly can't find pictures of Raden, Kostons, or my birthdays and be sure to check out the awesome melting ice-cream cake at Lexi's birthday! Jared was on shift for his birthday so we took a cake to the station.

Had to put in a picture of my man!

Looking fancy at the annual Christmas party - this years theme was DI Christmas

Daddy daughter dance

SPORTS! Raden was on number of baseball teams, Bailee did volleyball and Lexi and Jadie did coach pitch softball and soccer.

We played with friends

Went to a Diamondbacks baseball game

 Celebrated the fourth of July by watching fireworks withe the Durons

Had dress up days at school ( crazy day)

Bailee went to EFY for the first time up at BYU so we decided to make a family vacation out of it and were able to spend time with family up in Utah.  The highlight of the week was going to the conference center and being able to feel the spirit so strongly there. We had a great time hanging out with cousins and visiting with family!

GIRLS CAMP! Poor Bailee hasn't been to anything is young women without me being there! 

Jared and I celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary!

Bailee graduated from 8th grade!

Everyone knows Im not a huge fan of Halloween but the kids had a great time dressing up and trick or treating. Bailee ditched us and went to a friends Halloween party - Im sure she had much more fun there. Last year the boys ( Raden, Romney, and Cameron) were the three amigos - this year they were the three musketeers . Maybe next year the three little pigs?

 We spent some time at the cabin with the Hatch family

 And Raden shot his first deer!

 So that pretty much sums up our past year. We've had good and bad days but every day is worth being together. I truly wouldn't have it any other way.
