Here we go...

These pictures have nothing to do with this post...I just liked them:)

I am in denial no longer...We are moving. My house is full of half-packed boxes and a moving truck is scheduled. In just a few days we are making the 3 day (yeah, that's right) trip to California. We are so excited to be closer to family and move back out west. Still,we are sad to leave Oklahoma. We have enjoyed our time here more than we could have ever imagined. I remember driving into Tulsa for the first time and being pleasantly surprised, it wasn't a dust bowl at all! We have been pleasantly surprised over and over again by the great things that Tulsa has to offer. The friends we have made here are AMAZING and will be cherished so much. Ugh, I'm getting sappy. So, thanks Oklahoma for being our families first real home....and, get ready California...here comes the Carney Family!

It's that time of year again..

I'm so glad that we were able to spend one last fall season in Tulsa. It is breathtakingly beautiful out here with the fall colors and crisp autumn air. We love the pumpkin patch and it didn't disappoint this year...well besides the mud and wind, but we still had fun!

FL vacay...

These are just 5 out of the millions of pictures I took. I figured before I got too far behind I would just post a couple pictures. We had a great time spending time together as a family. I'm always pleasantly surprised after family trips at how well they turn out. The boys did great and we literally spent all day at the beach every chance we could get. It was relaxing and refreshing. I know this sounds lame but I am having so much fun with my little family right now. My boys are a blast to play with, they are so much fun and pretty independent. It's nice not to have to carry around a diaper bag or car seat:) They give me a run for my money but I love them so much and love experiencing life and there new findings everyday. I'm feeling pretty lucky right now.

the calm before the storm...

Going here for the next week for some family fun and relaxation! When we get back it will be three weeks of chaos before we make the big move back out to CALIFORNIA! whoo hoo!

Like Father, like Son..

What we have been up to lately...

Jack started Pre-K! yay! (check out Nolan..too lazy to crop him out)

Collecting Boxes...more to come on this.

Wrestling in underwear (a daily occurrence)

Thinking we are pretty funny huh?

Taking LOTS of pictures! mostly of other people...

Rocking out in the car.

Enjoying this awesome weather!

Pretty random post huh?

These boys..

just melt my heart...

6 years....

6 years ago today..

I was surrounded by my closest family and friends
I couldn't stop smiling
I had butterflies all day
I felt like a princess
I was excited for my future
I was madly in love
I married my best friend.
Looking back on that day I didn't think I could be any happier, or love any deeper. Jason has proved me wrong by making it possible for me to love him even more and giving me my amazing boys to gain a whole new level of love for. Thanks for an incredible 6 years babe.

Summer part 2

We were able to spend a few days in California before heading to Oregon. We spent those days doing perfect summer activities...swimming, fishing, grilling, wiffleball(sp?) and more swimming. Just what we needed...

Summer time...part 1

Waiting for the 4th of July parade!






This is one of our favorite spots ever. We always come up to this look out while we are here. It's truly breathtaking!



I went on a nice little hiatus from the blogging world. Now that we are getting back to a routine I figured I'd get back in a blogging routine too. We have had a blast this summer, it went by so fast! I'm going to start with documenting our trip to California and Oregon. Oregon was so much fun. We had beautiful weather and spent most of our time outside playing in the sand. Jack loved making sand castles and digging. Nolan not so much...but he got used to it eventually. We spent 4th of July on the beach. It was packed and fun to see all the fireworks. The trip was very relaxing and much needed. It was fun to see Grandma DD and all the cousins.

Love them...

My friend Jennifer took these pictures...I'm so glad she did. I love my little guys so much and am constantly amazed and humbled that they are ours to raise here on this earth. They are so much fun right now. Jack is such a little thinker and loves numbers! Jason has taught him how to add already. He is always acting like some sort of robot and will tell you anything you need to know about Star Wars. Nolan is my crazy red head who is full of energy. He loves to be just like Jack and his friends. He is always trying to do things that make us laugh. I've pulled him out of the bathtub with his clothes on 3 times this week because he knows it makes Jack laugh. They bring me so much joy. Love my little men..
I'm so pleased to say that I am still totally in love with this guy if not more than I was so many years ago. I have a sweet story that describes how perfect Jason is for me.
About a week or so ago I was super emotional (it was that pleasant time of the month) and was on the verge of crying literally at any second. Not for any reason specifically just because I really needed to get a good cry out. ( I was considering watching the Notebook later just to get it out) At about 10:30 after the kids were put to bed ( I had already stopped myself from crying about 10 times by then) Jason told me to get my swim suit on we were going swimming. It was pretty cold outside this night and the pool water hadn't totally warmed up yet. I told him I wasn't in the mood but he didn't take no for an answer. So we went out to the pool and jumped in. It was freezing but totally exhilarating! We hung out there for awhile and when the hot tub cleared out we got in their and just talked about nothing really just random things (i.e. like words that could both be used as nouns and adjectives) my whole mindset had totally changed and i was just enjoying hanging out, by about 11:30 I felt so much better! I probably could not have even cried if I wanted to because I was so happy. Jason is so sweet and truly cares about my feelings. He works pretty long hours and is exhausted when he get home but still find time to spend a little quality time with us. Love that guy...

heyyy batta batta....

I can't believe I have a kid old enough to play Tee ball! Jack is really enjoying it and so is Jason. My favorite part of the whole thing is when they are warming up they all "attempt" jumping jacks. I'll have to get a video of that...it's pretty classic. Baseball is something that Jack has always enjoyed and has created a bond between him and Jason. Here is to many more seasons to come!

Can't forget Nolan! Here he is playing peekaboo with his hat trying to get anyone and everyone to pay attention to him...such a little clown.
