Our new store..right in the backyard! Treats anyone?

Last week was our school carnival..Rides, games and face painting. Anyways, we came out with two cats( I think ). They ran over to Hallie's playhouse and started up there own store...two cats running a backyard store..they wanted us all to come over and buy there treats...funny girls and there very interesting imaginations...what fun it is to have good neighbors...we have a great time with them..especially Abbey.

Fun in Moab!

Here are some pictures from the infamous Moab trip. (These are all before Brandon got hurt).Hunter, Braeden and Brandon all went with some friends to Moab a couple of weeks ago. They had a great time...they rented a jeep and went on some really cool trails and then went on there fourwheelers the other days. It looks to me like it was a great idea I wasn't there..a little dangerous! But I can't forget a big thank you to Nate and Mike for helping Brandon out..along with a bunch others..he couldn't have made it back without you..Thanks so much!

Skiing at Snowbasin with dad!

Brandon took the boys skiing up to Snowbasin in Utah. They had so much fun! It was a true boys day out...they jumped and totally went out of bounds which is a no-no with the mom(me) and were even fortunate enough to see and meet Earl Holding..don't know who he is but Brandon said he is the owner of Snowbasin and Sun Valley and other things..the boys were excited so- I guess thats all that matters..

Tavaci spring concert..

Abbey had her end of the year Tavaci program last Monday night..she did so good and had so much fun. This year she had a speaking part with a little friend from class. She did awesome! It is always fun to see what your kids actually learn from there extra activities during the week..when it comes down to the end of the year and you see that they have had fun and learned so much.

Abbey's Spring Tavaci Program!

Dance pictures and...silly girls!

Well, it has come to the end of another dance year. It has been a good one. Abbey took Pre team and hip hop. I think that the hip hop was her favorite..I wonder why? Anyways, we had dance pictures last week and her and her friend Izzy were being so funny I decided to take a few of them being silly. The dance performance will be in a few weeks so I will let you all know how it goes..It's starting to finally feel a little like summer..I am so excited! Oh and yes if anyone is wondering that is a fake hair piece...last minute hair do!

Brandon vs.the 4-wheeler...guess which one won?

Well, we should start out by saying that this last week started out pretty good..Brandon and the boys heading down to Moab with some friends for a fun weekend. They had so much fun that I really didn't get to talk to them much at all- that is until I got a phone call from Braeden saying that they wouldn't make it home for dinner because dad was in the hospital..so-what am I suppose to think ,when for 14 years I have put up with so much teasing that my mind has been tainted a little bit. I totally thought they were joking so I said "whatever, have dad call me when you are on the road". Well, needless to say about an hour later I had another phone call from a friend of Brandons saying ..um, you should probably believe your boys..I felt pretty bad. I guess to make a long story short Brandon's 4wheeler fell on top of him and knocked him out and cut his face up pretty bad. I have to say that I am so thankful that he wasn't hurt anymore than that. Life can change so quickly, I guess we all need little wake up calls once in a while so we can try to be a little safer. Sorry for the long blog..I also want to say thanks so much for all the calls from good friends and family looking out for us and helping out.. what would we do without so many good friends? We appreciate everything! Thanks a bunch....

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mothers Day to my Mom and my wonderful sisters...I hope your day was great! I'm a little late posting this- but I still have to say how much I love my mom and sisters..they are the best moms ever- I have learned so much from there example..the love and support they have shown to there children and by taking the role of a mother seriously and with such pride..mothers mean so much to there children and are needed in every aspect of a childs life. I have to say to all my friends.. what awesome mothers you all are.. HAPPY MOTHERS DAY to you all.
