Day care fun!!!

This is brooke at the day care having too much fun. She enjoys all that she is learning and doing. She like to read her books and she likes to dress up, and she REALLY enjoys the finger painting. She thinks it is more fun to paint her body than to paint on the paper. But i thought it would be fun to post these pictures of the day care. I didn't realize that I don't have any of chase at the day care. I guess I should be better about that. We hope all is well with everyone!!

Hello to everyone....

Well, a new post has been long over due. So I figured now is as good as time as any. Well as most of you know we are now in Utah. Travis is going to school and working full-time. I am also working full-time back at the daycare. Things are busy and crazy, but that is life. The kids are doing well. Chase is slowly starting to talk better. And brooke is talking more and more. She just copies everything we say. It is so cute. There are times that she just sits there and talks to herself and it is so funny to listen to her. You can't understand what she is saying, but it makes us laugh. We have been getting a lot of snow here and I am ready for spring. It will be nice when we can see the grass and have the flowers start blooming. I love the spring, and am anxious to have it arrive. I guess I just need to be patient. Well, I just wanted to update everyone and let you all know how we are doing. We hope you are all doing well, and wish you the best!!! Here are some pictures of the kids.

These were their Valentines Day presents. It was funny because Chase said that Santa had come and I told him that it wasn't Santa it was cupid! He thought it was funny.

Brooke got the doodlebops guitar!!
And Chase got the doodlebops drums!!

Brooke always falls asleep like this and it is just so funny!!!

Hey look at my tongue! It can change colors!!

This is them being nice to each other, which isn't always the case.

He is just a goofball!!!

I am so adorable!!!

Kiss and make up!!!

Vacation Fun!!

Hey everyone,
As most of you might know we just got back from a family vacation in Oklahoma. Travis's brother and family live there and we went to visit them. They are our closest friends so we had a lot of fun hanging out with them and their kids. We haven't seen them in a year, so it was a good gathering, and the kids had so much fun together. Travis's parents were there too and of course it is always fun to see them. Chase was by Grandma and Grandpa's side every moment. You can see how much he misses seeing them. Wehad such a great time, and it was hard to leave. It is a bummer to be back to normal life again, but just knowing that the holidays are coming is getting me through the days. Well, we have a lot of pictures to post and I didn't even post half of them. The pictures were mostly from the zoo, and a restaurant called Logan's!!!

This is Chase thoroughly enjoying the peanuts. They just let you throw the shells on the floor. Just like Texas Roadhouse!!

Brooke enjoyed the rolls with the honey butter......

But mostly the honey butter!!!!!
Here are Grandma and Grandpa Esquibel just enjoying everything around them!!
What a cute couple!!

A whole bunch of monkeys just hanging out!!!

Well, we had a great time and want to thank Corey and Kory for their hospitality and love, and also thank Grandma adn Grandpa for all they did as well. We can't wait to see them all again. And this Christmas we will get to see evern more family and we are so excited.

We hopethat everyone is doing well, and send you all the best of wishes!!!

Life is as fun and Crazy as Usual!!

Hey Everyone,

I just thought I would write a little something letting you all know what we are up to. Things here are pretty crazy, so its nothing that new. I have started a job at Payless Shoes part time in the evenings and I like it. It is a pretty mellow job, although I do stay busy. Plus I like the people I work with so it makes it ice. The extra money will be very nice. We are trying to save up some money because we will be going to OK in Sept. We will be visiting Travis's brother and his family. I am excited because any break from the crazy life will be fun. So thatis what we are looking forward to. And then before we know it the Holidays will be here, so we will need the extra money even more. I love the Holidays and am very excited about them being so close. Chase and Brooke are staying busy. they arealways getting into something or making a mess or just pestering eachother. It is amazing how fast they grow. Brooke is climbing onto everything now. The other day i found her crying because she had crawled up onto the entertainment center and got stuck in one the shelves. She is so crazy. Sometimes I think she should ahve been a boy because of how tough she plays. She can even be the one picking on Chase. It can be funny to watch, but I have to let her know that it isn't okay. They both get into trouble a lot. But they wouldn't be kids if they didn't, right? Well, Travis downloaded some pictures from his phone so I thought I would post some of them. They are so cute!

The other day we went to Wal-Mart to haveour tires changed and while we were waiting we went into their little game area and let the kids ride some things and they thought it was so much fun. Chase didn't actually play the motorcyle game, but he just thought it was fun riding on it. And then Brooke loved the Hot dog van. After we lether ride it she just didn't want to get out. they were both prettymad when we had to leave.

This was a picture from our townhouse in UT before wemoved, but I just thought Chase looked so funny I had to post it. He can be such a character!As you all knowthe park is chases favorite thing to do, and you can tell by the big smile on his face as he comes down the slide. This was also while we were in UT!
And this I just thought was cute. He just looks so innocent. Something that he rarely is. So to have caught it on camera was amazing! It can be so rewarding when they are sweet and cute like that! But we have to enjoy it when we can get it!

Well, we wish everyone the best. Take care and we hope to hear from you all soon.

Love,

The Esquibels

To all our Friends and Family,

Now that I have the opportunity to post some more pictures here they are! My computer is cooperating so I have my chance to show everyone how much fun we can have when the weather is actually nice! And Since we have Mindy during the day we are able to bring her along, too. The kids have so much fun playing at the park! Chase loves flying the kite, and thinks it is so cool that something he is holding can go that high in the sky!

This is what our Kite looks like!! Pretty huh? We think so!

This is Brooke wanting to fly the kite, but as you can see Daddy has to do most of the work,

or it will just fall!




Swinging is fun! And swinging with your best friend is even more fun!
Are those girls Cute!! They just love the swings, and so does mom,
because I don't have to do much to keep them entertained!!

This was snack time! Not that Brooke needs more snacks, but who doesn't like to eat??

I know I like snack time and I LOVE nap time!

Posing for the cutest picture! Here are our two favorite men in our house!

And look at those muscules!

The coloring on this picture is not very good at all, but I tried to make it look the

best I could! Brooke loves to slide down the slide, too. Right up there with swinging is

sliding down the slide! And it is even more fun when I go down with her!

Well, As you can all see we just love the park. We have so much fun and we get to relax from the crazy life we have at home! Plus mommy can try to get a tan!:):):)
We hope that everyone is happy and healthy.
Best Wishes,
The Esquibels

Brooke's Birthday!!!

Well, I have finally recieved new pictures. But unfortunately this was the only pictrure that blogger would let me download. For some reason our computer isn't cooperating, so i will have to try again later. The one I posted is from Brooke's Birthday. Yes, I know I am a month late, but I'm sorry I couldn't get it done any faster! And Now here they are, and our family is as cute and happy as ever! Sorry if the picture looks a little dark, the lighting in our house was horrible so I tried to adjust it the best I could. We had so much fun on Brooke's Birthday. We had my sister Brittany and her family over, and we ate and played games and opened presents. Brooked loved her presents. She enjoyed opening the first couple ones, but then she didn't want to do it anymore. She just wanted to play. So Travis and I had to do quite a bit of helping!
Things here are going well. Travis is still at wal-Mart and has already recieved a raise. He is doing so well, and they love him!! Well, I am looking into getting a part time job and I have applied at Payless. I have an interview withthem in a couple hours, so we will see what happens. The kids are doing well. they are as happy and crazy as usual. They keep me on my toes!! I have little room for slacking! I wish I could be lazy more. Oh well, that is what happens when you become a mom. Well, we hope that everyone is doing well, and we thank you for all of your support and frindship!
See ya later,
The Esquibels

Greetings from one crazy Family!

Hey Friends,

I am so sorry that I haven't done a new post for awhile. But I am not able to get my pictures developed yet. I have like three rolls to develop. So when I finally get them done, there will be a lot to post. I am hoping that within the next week or so I will be able to get the pictures. I will keep my fingers crossed. Well things here are just crazy and I am trying to stay sane. And I was planning on writing more, but Brooke is making it impossible. So I will try back soon. I hope that all is going well, and that everyone is happy and healthy!

With love from the Esquibels

PS Chase loved the turtles, so i decided to add them to the page! He just loves animals so much!!
