LET THE SUMMER BEGIN!!!

    Hello fellow bloggers. Once again, I let myself become too busy with life and haven't sat down to journal for a while. So much has gone on and I know one day I will look at these books and get so mad at myself for not writing things down. So here we gofor the month of, man, may and June?

Well Work, School programs, recitals, end o season soccer games, tryouts, tournaments, doctor visits, End of school parties, Family Trips, and just recently Jason traveling, Cousins visiting, more tournaments, more n more work, and just summer in general has kept our family super busy. Today, while I should be finishing work, I've decided to BLOG! Our cousins left this morning. We had a super great time while they were here. Everyone was basically entertained since Saturday! It's been pretty nice! My sis. N law Kara got me seriously thinking about the importance of this journaling thing! The days are just going by way too fast.

So we just finally got a really hot day, todayand of course it was the first day of a weekend long tournament. We just finished up two soccer games for today in the tournament and we are tired of being in the sun. I felt so bad for both Hali and Kora as they were running up and down those fields. They both played so hard and I was very proud of them! They are excited for this upcoming season. They had their tryouts in mid-may and the results are: Hali is playing forward/mid on the premier State Wasatch Team and Kora is playing defender up a year on U10 district Strikers Team. We are looking forward to upcoming tournaments and camps!

The boys just recently, like within the past week or so, have been really into taking things apart. First it was Korbin, and just a minute ago I found Hayden in the toy room taking trying to take apart Kora's polly pocket car. While he was doing a great job at unscrewing the car, I was a bit upset because I had just put it back together from Korbin taking it apart the night before. We haven't told Kora yet, nor do I think she will really care. The problem isI can just see them while I am gone one day working together to disassemble something big. Perhaps the wii, or the TV, or my computer, or my plotter, There are so many screws in our home! Oh the possibilities. I need Jason to come home and just fiddle around in the garage for a day with those boys. B.T.W. I do LOVE that they do thisjust not things I have spent money on. They too are playing soccer in the fall and are attending a few camps this summercan't wait for those. They need to release energy. It will be great to see them pooped! It's been a while.

The pictures on my blog are all very random, but have been taken within the last two months. Fun times at the Lynn Home!

Annual Hospital Visit



So, last year it was Korbin cracking his head open on Easter…last Saturday, Hayden got his turn. He got his head slammed in the van door. HE is fine, he had a CT scan and thought it was the coolest ride. He refers to it as a doughnut in space. As we were leaving the hospital he says, "That was super cool mom" I told him I hope he enjoyed his $50. Ride. Our family was quite shaken up that night. I had been trying to get them loaded after a church party for about 30min. I was chasing Hayden around the outside of the church and trying to get the rest of them, including dad, to get in the car. No one was listening!!ARG. Then once we finally got in the car the last person thought everyone was in and Hayden was crawling in and SLAM! In the car, I told my kids I couldn't be a mom anymore and I was giving up because no one listens to me. I of course, started a huge meltdown and they all were bawling. Korbin didn't want to go to sleep until Hayden came home. They were all so worried about him. So some blood and swollen sides of his head for us to all learn a lesson. My kids, obviously, was to listen the first time. Me, don't ever say you can't be a mom anymore and I am giving up. Jason, to listen to his wife, the first time also! I truly am grateful for all of our trials. We are just an ordinary family learning through each experience that comes our way. I was so proud of how big everyone acted once he got hurt. (except me of course) Hali was so brave and watched the kids. I called several times over the 2 hours we were there. She was crying with Kora and Korbin the first couple of calls and then I was amazed at how strong she was. She told me she gave them hugs and said a prayer together that Hayden would be okay. I LOVE my kids and my husband. This is what I LIVE for. They are my LIFE!

KID FUN!!!

I can't believe this school year is coming to a close! We have been so busy lately with parties, 2 birthdays, work, taxes, emergencies, housework, guests, and about a million soccer games! We've had a blast and I would love to be that mom that blogs and records every living moment. But truth is I'm totally not! This is as good as it gets! I'm blogging in the 45 min. until my kids come home and all h…. breaks loose. You know snacks, homework, practices, games, bath, dinner(sandwiches, taco bell, corn dogs) Freezer group where are you! HELP! Here are the latest in the Lynn home.


Hali: Total PEACE maker! As you can see from the pictures…it is very fitting. She has been great at helping around the house and has recently found her inner self with her friends at a party…she rocked the house with "Old MacDonald" She has also been playing lots of soccer 2-3 times a week. She truly amazes me. Not just the talent but her determination and strong mind! She has been our number 1 baby sitter and we appreciate her so much! She also just received her Faith in God award and is gearing up for YW. Scary to think about! She got a big kick out of me breaking my toe while playing soccer. Thought that was one of the funniest things!

Kora: Just got a HAIR CUT and is now a super diva. I will have to take photos with a good camera and post rather than my blackberry. She has been playing soccer 2-3 times a week and constantly impresses me as well. She just realized last week that she can totally run! She wanted to run with me and ended up going 3 miles??? She is having a blast with her friends and family. And just recently had her FIRST ever sleepover. It was her next door neighbor friend who is just as adorable as she is. Kora is getting so mature, it makes me sad when I look at baby pictures..but for sure would never go back. She is my shopping lover! I need one of those!

Korbin: Had a birthday. He is now 7 years old! He had a big birthday bash at the bowling alley. Lots of fun and I must say he acts much older now that he is 7. He got a motor scooter and now has a little more freedom to roam the neighborhood. WATCH OUT! On a more serious note, he takes very good care of that thing. Since mom has ran over his bike, he plugs his scooter in every day when he finishes riding it! Korbin is also playing soccer and still enjoys slide tackling the kids out there. He runs all the way down the field to protect his goal and then runs it back and scores…he is tired and happy when he is done! Just how we like him! He is such a good kid and tries to be kind to everyone. Definitely the most social out of us all!

Hayden: oh Hayden..remember the Lion costume? We've switched to a mullet wig. I'm about to kill Jason for ever getting that thing! Im not so sure why he likes it, but he seriously thinks he's a rocker when he wears it. I really laughed this morning when he was vaccuming with it on...my pics don't come out so well on my phone lately but you can see how funny it is for yourself. So his funny things lately is anything about poop, pee, bottom, puke???? I don't get it but everyone laughs. He is becoming sensitive to us laughing at him, but it is so hard not to. He tells me all the time lately to not laugh at him. My response is that he makes me happy! Maybe someone should tell him to not wear the mullet???

That's the wrap…till next time!

2 Down…2 more to go!


Here's Kora. Yep, that makes two for us in braces. She is in lots of pain today but constantly seeks advice from her older sister, on how to relieve it. I'm no help and neither is Jason since none of us had braces. It is my narrow mouth and Jasons big teeth that is giving us this craziness. We all had our cleanings yesterday and NO CAVITIES!!! Yeah. But, we got great news that Korbin will need braces within the next two years and Hayden needs to correct an overbite. Do teeth really have to be perfect? Cause Im tired of all these trips to the "TEETH PEOPLE". Nevertheless, Kora does look adorable. She has been trying not to smile, but realizes that it hurts when she does that. I told her to just let her lips go…they look AWESOME!!!

Lynns are blogging again!






Sorry Blogger friends, I have not been very good at keeping up with anything these days! Facebook is so much easier. This winter has been so dreadfully cold but a lot of fun! We have taken advantage of all snow activities this winter. Christmas came and went...we have had lots of visitors and lots of fun with family and friends. The kids have had so much fun with the snow, but I think we are all ready for the sunshine! We are planning on Disneyland soon and cannot wait for that trip with friends and family and SUN! Hali and Kora have been playing a lot of indoor soccer. They both LOVE their soccer teams! Koras comp. team took 1st place this indoor season. They have both developed so much since our move and are proud of them both. Korbin and Hayden are anxiously awaiting their moments to shine in the spring in their sports! They are constantly putting on their football uniforms and playing basketball in the garage. They keep us very busy! I constantly hear Korbin singing Jonas Bros. songs and Haydens new thing is "Mom my tummy is scrubby" apparently that means he is super hungry. Jason and I are also ready for the sunshine and for all of the activities that come with it. I tried to surprise my Jason the other day and shoveled the whole driveway! I was so...sore! Really, I could barely lift my arms. Jason got a big kick out of this because I can run forever and never be sore and his favorite was that we had a snow blower in the garage. Whatever...I am ready for the SUN!

GOOD FRIENDS






Man I miss my good friends from Fruita. I guess, I don't really realize it until I am down/I have no one to run with/start planning holidays without them I was so blessed to be surrounded by good people, and wish I would have taken more time to thank those who loved me. Well, this weekend I got a taste of an awesome friendshipmy good friend Tasha came to townI LOVE YOU TASHAnd to all my friends back there, I MISS YOU TONS! It was so good to see her and Shania, her baby. Tasha went into labor the night that I left Fruita. I saw her with her mom and she was headed towards the hospital right as I was leaving Colorado. Then when I pulled upto my new home in Layton, I got a call from her telling me she had her babyI cried like a baby. I cried again as she left, because I miss the true friendship that she gave to me. It was so great to see her again. Here are some photos. What a GOOD baby girl!!!
