The latest project - Art Aprons

Mikey wanted me to sew him an apron. He loves wearing mine, but it's too long. I let him pick out his fabric. I had to make one for Katie, too, of course.

More fun with Matsuda's

More visits from my Peeps!

What a cute girl, eating our $5 pizzas at the boys birthday party! What a FUN surprise for them to have cousins, Tracy & Jason come to their party!
We had two jumpers on our back church lawn area. The kids had a great time. Tracy's such a good auntie!
Ross and Jason had as much fun as the young kids! They were so awesome to help set up everything!

We love you guys!!!!!
More fun with Grammy!!!

Visits from my peeps!

Mom's Birthday party, before she stayed with my kids for a whole WEEK!!! We love you, Grammy!
Boy, did this cute girl love the beach! Guess you'll just have to come back, Alie!
The boys had fun with Kyree, being silling, having slumber parties, and playing at the beach.
Loved it!
You SURE you guys don't want to live in Cali?!

Summer Finally here!

So my son is in love with the water hose!! Big tears when we turn it off..such a sad life.

London recently had her first dance performance. She did a great job and loved the spot light, imagine that!

My girl who will not wear pants or let me do her hair was not happy with me. I told her a few white lies to get her into shorts for the petting zoo and a little fib that a cow will eat her hair if i dont put it up with bows too! Gotta love her!

Matt has such a green thumb..he is growing corn, strawberry,soybeans and yes we have 3 apple trees. London loves to pick the strawberries and snack on them

I am finally out of hiding

Seriously, I feel like I have been part of the witness protection program for far too long! We kept a low profile when we found out we were pregnant, and even lower once we knew it was twins. Crazy. We have finally stopped crying (as much) about the new additions to our family, and are trying to stay positive about it now.
So much has happened since I last blogged. First, we had a wonderful visit from our beloved LuLu and PaPa. They were extremely patient with me, since they came during the height of my sickness...it was not a good time to be in my house. But they made the best of it, and took good care of us.
Matt and I have started to look for a home and a bigger car that will fit all (gulp) 6 of us. The search continues...
The kids and I took off to visit Shelby and her family in LA for our spring break. The drive SUCKED, and I was super sick still...but we had the best time. It was fun to have our kids play together, and fun to spend late nights bumming around Target and Walmart with Shelby! The kids still talk about how much fun hey had at the beach!
Then we had an awesome visit from my mom, aka MiMi. She lights up our world when she comes, and we are SO SO SO excited they sold their house and are moving out west! Ok Joni...your next (haha?). I am just going to post some random pictures of the fun things we have been doing, so enjoy!!!

East Coast Trip

Here's a nice shot of Boston in the background. We stayed here for two days to do touristy stuff.
Here's our little castle in Long Island, NY that we stayed at for two days. It was AMAZING!!!
Jarom's friend got married in Rhode Island - the main reason for this trip. This is the backdrop of his wedding ceremony. Pretty, huh!?
We did some site-seeing in Rhode Island, too. There were tons of mansions built in the 1800's and they keep up on them for tourists. Lots of history and stuff in them.
Me eating crab cakes at some retail Lobster shop in Boston - BEST SEAFOOD EVER!!!!! It wasn't fancy at all, but we ate the most delicious lobster bisque, lobster sandwiches and crab cakes here.
