Kylie's 15th Birthday (Only over a month late)

Kylie decided to have a small get together rather than a big party, so here are a few pictures of them hanging out, playing Rock Band and eating all kinds of stuff.  :)

Tim Quotes: Finally Organized

This is not a major update, I just wanted to share a link.  First though, if there are any visitors here who don't know me personally, here's a quick explanation:

My husband Tim is HILARIOUS most of the time (to us anyway).  I started posting "Timisms" on Facebook as status updates so I wouldn't forget them.  I kept getting, "These need to be a book!" comments.  While I'm not THAT ambitious, I did finally put ALL the Tim quotes from the past several years into one online document.  (All that I could remember to post anyway, there are tons that I forget!)  I was re-reading some of them recently and laughed, so I think they're still funny.  (Even though I am biased of course.)  Just click the word in all caps to go to the document.  Enjoy!

TIMISMS (aka TIM QUOTES)

Wow, I'm already slacking? Must update NOW!

Here's a brief "What we're doing" list, but a better post will come later this week (with photos and stuff):

1.  We move NEXT WEEK!!!  Wow.  It seemed far, but now it's almost here.

2.  We're going to the midnight Harry Potter on Thursday.  Woohoo!!!!  (Yep...nerds.)  I'll try to get some photos. 

3.  Apparently when you get older, you're susceptible to infomercials.  I recently bought THE FIRM.  Will let you know how it is after I've used it a bit.  For those curious, I made the name in all caps a clickable link to their website. 

4.  Tim is in California this week enjoying 70-80 degree temps while we endure 110.  LUCKY!!!

5.  I just realized I never uploaded pictures from Kylie's birthday.  Coming soon though...I promise!

Now to end with my favorite song this week (click the title of the song to hear it!!!):
Tonight Tonight by Hot Chelle Rae

BBQ at Friends House on July 3, 2011

We went to Chris and Colleen's house to grill and let the kids swim yesterday.  They are super nice and had fireworks, too so I had to take a few pictures.  Unfortunately, these photos are dark because I forgot my camera and used my phone.  (Dark photos are better than NO photos though, right?)  I thought the pictures were cute, despite the darkness!  (Collin kept dodging the camera, so I didn't get one of him alone or posing though!)

Keira, Alana & Collin with sparklers.  Coconut (the dog) joined in also.

Shaylee

Kylie (She dodged too and wouldn't look at me for the picture.)

Chris decided to do a sparkler dance.  Ignore how obnoxious my laugh sounds when it's right into the microphone, but it was impossible not to laugh while filming this.  :)

Babysitting Pics and Lilly's Trip to Pet Smart

A couple weeks ago we took some photos of Kylie with the two ADORABLE girls she babysits.  (They love her and she loves them!)  I meant to share them sooner (so sorry), but I have them uploaded now so here you go:

Kylie with Abby and Ella

Ella made this for Kylie, and it was so cute and sweet!!!

Abby made a picture for Kylie, too!!!  Isn't it adorable?  

 We had to get hugs before leaving of course!

Bonus:  Here's a video clip taken today (July 2, 2011) of Lilly trying on some pink shoes in Pet Smart.  I was cracking up because of how she was walking:
