Time Fly's when your having fun.

Thirteen years ago today Larry and I got married. I remember that day very good, I was so excited and couldn't wait to be married to him. I we got married at my parents house on the back deck, the wedding part wasn't that big because we only invited a few people to it and then invited everyone else to the reception. It was a great day and I remember that days before I was so nervous about the weather because we got married outside, all I could think about was "what if it rained", we couldn't go to the church building because it was being used for something else. My dad had told me that if it rained that we would just move it to inside. I did not want that and prayed for nice weather. It was beautiful that day and the weather was perfect I was so happy.

I would post more pictures of our wedding but I don't have them on the computer because it was back when we didn't use digital camera's and the one below is one of those pictures but I took a picture of it with my better camera. Time sure does fly when you are having fun.

June 11, 1999  Larry and Beth Brown

 For our honeymoon we went to disneyland. Unfortunately I don't have any of those pictures on the computer either but when we went there we looked like we did above but not all dressed up :). It was my first time ever going to disneyland and we had a blast. Well in April we took the kids to disneyland for spring break and it brought back some good memories. Disneyland is one of our most favorite places and one day Larry and I going to go again by ourselves and not tell the kids because they would be mad. Here are some pictures of us .

I still have not figured out how to fix the pictures when they are turned like that.

 13 years and 3 kids later

 Waiting for the parade to start

 Family picture and no Madison and I did not plan for us to dress alike.

When we were on our honeymoon we went and saw a baseball game and so since the kids are into baseball we thought that we would go and see the Angel's play. It was such a great day and the weather was nice and hot. :)

 Once again we have a picture of us kind of like this on our honeymoon and so I had to get another one as well.

A long Time Gone

Oh my gosh, it has been along time since I have blogged. I always mean to but we are so busy lately that at the end of the day I just don't want to sit at the computer. We have done alot of things that go all the way back to spring break. I had started a blog about spring break and all the things we did then but I gave up on it because blogger had changed their way of downloading pictures and I had alot of pictures that I wanted downloaded and didn't have the patience to download them one at a time. So I am starting off with what has happened in the last couple of weeks.

First I will tell you that I did post pictures of our spring break on facebook so probably everyone who reads my blog saw them on facebook. We went to Disneyland for spring break this year and had a blast. It was so nice and warm and it had been a long time since we had been there. Disneyland is the place where Larry and I went on our honeymoon so it brings back good memories and we love the excitement in the kids when we took them there. We had planned for the Disneyland trip since the summer and kep it from the kids because we wanted to surprise them and the day before we left we told them and they were so excited, Madison cried and the boys were just excited.

So that is what we did on spring break and then since then it has been alot of baseball for us. Madison and Zach are both playing and then we signed Carson up for t-ball because he said he wanted to and it just started so you will see pictures of that later. The kids are loving baseball and madison has found out that she really wants to be a pitcher.  She still has a long ways to go but I think we might get her with a pitching coach to help her, only if she decides that she wants to continue with softball. Zach loves baseball and can really hit the ball. Sometimes I think it is to slow paced for him but he says that he likes it wants to continue playing it.

We have this week left for softball and baseball and then it will be nice to get a little break for the summer. We love it when the kids are involved in their things but it is also nice to get that little break as well.

This is a picture of what happens when a bored four year old gets a hold of the camera at one of their siblings baseball/softball games.

 Zach getting ready to hit the ball.

 My camera was about to die and we were really far away from everyone and so this is kind of a fuzzy picture. Larry by the way is Madison's coach.

 And this is what happens when Carson wants to get in the picture. I actually kind of like this picture.

 Once again he is trying to entertain himself at a game.

 This picture I took just because one day when I was watching Kenzie she was playing with the bubbles and I thought it was a cute picture.

 Oh I forgot to mention above that we also celebrated two birthdays in the month of May. Zach turned 8 on the 7th of May and Carson turned 4 on the 2nd of May. Zach was so excited to turn 8 because he got to be baptized. For Zach's birthday Larry and I decided to not do a big party for him and instead got some good seats to a Mariners game and took him to that. He loved it. He got a baseball signed by two of the Mariners players and then he got to play catch with one of them too and then the player gave Zach one of the game balls. Zach was pretty excited about that.  We also had more baseball in the month of May as well.

Here is Zach and Larry on the day of Zach's baptism on June 2nd.

 Family picture, Carson never wants to be in the picture.

 Zach and my dad. Larry did the baptism and my dad did the confirmation, it was a great baptism.

After the baptism we went to Alfy's and had pizza with the family and then Larry and Madison had to leave from their because Madison had a game they had to be at and then me and boys had to go home and change because Zach had a game at 3 so we had a busy day on Saturday.

Zach being catcher at his game.

 This is what happens when he gets bored out on the field. He doesn't do this all the time I think I just got a picture of him waiting for the inning to start.

Oh did I mention that not only did we have a baptism and two baseball games on the 2nd but later that night we had Madison's piano recital at 7. It was a long day.

I really love Madison's piano teacher I think that she is great. She does some fantastic things with the kids and this year she started a music class for 3 and four year olds and Carson has been going to it and he LOVES it. She teaches them some basic pre-school things and then she does music thing with them as well. They get to play on piano and they talk about music and the sounds and the notes. So Carson has gotten to play the piano and loves to, she has said that he really has a nack for it and Carson actually got to play a song at Madison's piano recital. He did such a good job. We got both Madison and Carson on video but I will have to video Carson again because I was in it and I would rather have it be just him and I don't know how to download video on my blog so be looking for it on facebook.

Carson got a little certificate and candy. The teacher only chose two boys from her music class to play and so Carson and another little boy got to play and got a certificate.

Today, June 3rd, Carson came up to me before church and said he wanted his nails painted like a rainbow. So I though what is the harm in it he is only four and so what. He asked me and so I did it. He loved it. After I did it he went and showed Larry and Larry said "where is your mom?" I went down stairs and he just looked at me. I told him that I would take it off before we went to church but I never did so he went to church with it on, in fact he still has it on. He is only four.
