Birthdays...Homecoming...Happy Babies

Quincey turned the big 15. Allie and I made her a "15" cake which we didn't eat until the next day because she was so busy on her actual birthday there just wasn't time. We went to the mall and spent all of her money. She got a new set of scriptures and a lot of really cute church clothes.

We sang to her and clapped and then all 8 of us sat on our bed and watched Soul Surfer.

THEN........

Brayden and his friends got asked to Homecoming. They went on a day date to Red Mango and I think they went to lunch somewhere. Then the boys came home and got all pretty. They thought they looked pretty hot and posed very willingly for me.

Brayden has very nice friends. I am so happy with these boys. They are nice and respectful and stay out of trouble. Dallas is on the left. He has an EXTENSIVE wardrobe of very "preppy" clothes. Like he wears sweater vests and scarves and argyle socks to school. He hooked everybody up with duds. I think they look smashing. And I was a little shocked, I'm not going to lie

The group photo, minus one or two. I was so happy that they stopped by so I could take some pictures

Brayden and Grace

Notice how he didn't open her door for her.......... shoot...... my bad!

While I was outside taking pictures, Kaleigh was in her high chair eating corn. When she saw that I had the camera, this is the face she made for me.

And this is how I found Peyton. She loves watching animal shows. She can make any animal sound you challenge her to make.

It was a fun and eventful week.

It looks like Brayden and friends had a fun night too. Brayden looks mighty cute when he gets all spiffed up. I can't believe that these kids are growing up so fast but I guess it's a good thing because here comes Phase Two right behind them!! Thanks for sharing.; September 25, 2011 at 8:37 PM
URFAVE 5+A Few said...: It looks like it was a VERY EVENTFUL week! Happy birthday to Q-she is so beautiful! And Happy Homecoming to B. What a very handsome young man. I'm glad that he went. I asked Blake if he was going to go and he said, no and then he said yes and then finally in the end he decided not to ask anyone. Maybe next year.
Oh and Kaleigh is getting SO BIG! At first glance I thought it was Peyton. They grow up so fast!; September 25, 2011 at 10:53 PM

Karen Carter said...: Ok..I know I should come up with a new comment but I simply cant. All I can say is those kids are so cute I cant stand it! Brayden looks so handsome and Quincy just like a cute 15 year should. And the baby with her corn is straight out of a magazine!! I love reading about your cute family!

The fly-fisherman's wife said...: My goodness- what busy lives you have. Happy Birthday to Quincey. I'll bet she got some really cute clothes... she is so fashionable. Way to go Brayden. I am glad that he went to homecoming. Looks like he was with a fun group of kids. I can't believe how much hair Kaleigh has. She has got to have more that Peyton. So cute.
Can't wait to see you guys this weekend.; September 28, 2011 at 6:31 PM

Who we are, where we've been and where we are going

We are the Lunds. And some of us are Koenigs. And this is our life. I am Kaci and I am the creator/author/historian of this blog. What I write, I write with two goals in mind... To keep my family totally and completely involved in all of our doings and to keep a record of our life events. That is all it is...

I had four children from a previous marriage as well as a whole lot of baggage. And maybe that might have discouraged a lesser man from pursuing me, but luckily for me the stars aligned and a very good, honest, brave, not to mention super sexy boy took a chance on me. And pursue me he did... to flattering proportions.

In 2008, I married the Love of My Life. I didn't know being married could be this wonderful and happy. I didn't know that being in love feels like THIS. I didn't know that truly being loved and correctly taken care of is the greatest blessing a girl can have in her life. I thank my Heavenly Father a few times a day for guiding my path to the greatest of my treasures. It was a rough and long road but so worth the journey.

In 2009, we had our Sweet Peyton. She is a Lund all the way from her confidence level and mild mannered disposition right on down to her perfectly round and rather large head. What a blessing she is to our home and our life.

In 2010, we had Kaleigh. She is little and darling but don't let her tiny stature fool you. This girl can take care of herself. She climbs on EVERYTHING!!! And is afraid of NOTHING!

What a complete joy she has been, our little elf.

And in 2011, we had Ryker. We weren't really sure what to do with a boy. It's been a long time. But he is the exclamation point on our little family and we love him with all of our hearts.

My "big kids" (I call them), mean the world to me. I could not do this without them. They make me laugh, keep me young, make me feel pretty, lighten my load, make me proud, love me anyway and challenge me too. We've been through a lot,

the five of us, but they are superior kids because they've weathered the storm.

We are a pretty crazy and energetic family. There are constant comings and goings and hysterical happenings. These are our stories. And they are all true. Flowered up maybe, but certainly true.

Enjoy
