Always BUSY! Life in pictures!

Man, have we been busy! Most everything gets posted on Instagram and Facebook these days. However, I really want to keep up with our family blog because it is my journal of us.
So, here are some random pictures that pretty much sum up our crazy life lately...

Caroline FINALLY got her haircut. The last time she had it fully cut was when she was a year old!!! I know, craziness!!! Luckily, I have the best niece, Abbi, who is taking cosmetology while in high school. I love these 3!

I took the kids and Abbi and Marissa to Lupe's one night.  Did I mention that Lupe Tortillas brings out the crazy in my family?

The boys had baseball tryouts.  Man, did they do awesome! Especially, for not picking up a bat and ball in a year!

WE LUCKED OUT AND THE BOYS HAVE BEEN PLACED ON THE SAME BASEBALL TEAM...MORE ON THAT TO COME!!!

Caroline thought she wanted to play ball this season, but chickened out at the last minute.  However, come this fall, she will play softball!!  Because, this girl has some CRAZY MAD SKILLS!!! 

Jake finally got his glasses fixed...maybe he can finally SEE again!

Our favorite missionary finished his mission and went back home. He will be missed.  Cameron really liked Elder Leavitt and was bummed to see him leave.

And yes, this is from our Super Bowl party---way back!  And yes, we were rooting for the BRONCOS!!!

hair cut

Hair cut for Cee Cee?
No way!
Hair cut for Rapunzel?
Yep!
After riding her bike through the house like a mad woman yesterday & getting Rapunzel's long hair caught in her wheel, Caroline decided Rapunzel's long flowing blond locks had to go.
Out came the scissors, the brush, and the leave-in-conditioner.
Rapunzel is now sporting a new and fresh look & I think Cee Cee is showing some mad skills in the beauty department.

1st Haircut

I know what you are probably thinking... Caroline needs a haircut??? That girl has so much hair!!! Well, it is a Youngblood family tradition for us that our kids get their haircut on their 1st birthday and have no snips before that big day. Our past experience with the boys was less than pleasant. So, we figured CC would be the same or worse. Caroline has already established her strong personality and when she wants something or not she makes it loud and clear. However, to our surprise she did wonderful. We went to Cool Cuts for Kids and she was able watch Barney and sit in a fire truck chair. The only time she cried is when we had to remove her from the fire truck chair so we could leave.

Before the haircut....

The actual haircut...as you can tell not much was cut off. Just a trim.

And this is CC after her haircut. However, these are not the best pictures of her and her haircut. She was a wild child after her haircut and was ready to explore.
