Our day at the Brigham City Pool

This weekend we spent Thursday night thru Sunday morning with Jaron's sister Valerie and her family in Kaysville, Utah. Then on Sunday we went to Tremontom, Utah to spent Sunday and Monday with Jaron's brother John and his family. On Sunday, we made the famous peach cobbler and turned our eating into a firework/block party. It was good and we had great company. On Monday we went to the Brigham City pool and spent another great day at the pool.

McKay even had fun and found out he could do the slide himself, and I think he went off of it 100 times. (O.k. probably not that many, but close).

Funny boys....

The 4th of July

Nothing like starting the day of the 4th with a Parade. This parade was held in Kaysville, Utah it was really good and long. The kids scored lots of Candy and toys.

You couldn't have a 4th of July with out the famous sparklers. And yes, someone did get burned. McKay knelt down on one that was still hot. But we recovered quickly.

Boys and their fireworks....

A fun day at the Roy pool in Utah

This past weekend we spent the 4th of July with Jaron's sister and brother. On friday, we spent the day at the Roy pool. We had so much fun. There was so much for the kids to do. From Diving boards, slides, kiddy slides and the fun in the Sun. I also had time to enjoyed a good book.

Smile McKay, it's only water. Kenzie loved the slide and playing in the nice warm water.

Nice Dive Jaron...

Happy Anniversary Jaron

Today is our Anniversary. Pretty funny how old we look now compared to the day we got married. I never would have dreamed what life would be like after 14 years. If someone would had told me you would have a house full of kids, you would be a mother to almost a teenager, I would have laughed and said, "only in your dreams". But guess what, I have four beautiful kids, with the man I am still deeply in love with. I guess you can say, I made the right choice when I married Jaron. He is truely a man of Integrity, a hard worker and provides for our family well. He is thoughtful and very helpful with the kids and around the house. I am so glad that we still do everything together, from cleaning the house, to mowing the lawn, planting a garden, building a fence, working on the house or houses, grocery shopping, or putting the kids to bed, we are usually together. I am glad to share those things with him and hope we can always do it together. (because he does have me for all eternity...) I am so blessed to have him in my life, and that he is truely my best friend. I love you and Happy Anniversary Jaron!!!

Friends, Fun, Vegas

What a great weekend. For Memorial weekend the 6 of us, Casey, DesiRae, Daryl, Jen, and us, went to Vegas. The guys had tickets to the UFC fight and us girls went to see Terry Fator, (Winner of Americas got Talent). It was a really good show, I laughed so hard that my cheeks hurt. As you can see the weather was perfect. We played in the pools during the day and played on the strip at night. I even rode the roller coaster at New York, New York. A little scary but survived. Thank you Casey for having a birthday in Vegas, we had a blast...

Also thank you, thank you, Mindy and Ryan you are truly saints for taking our 4 kids, so we could play. Thanks again for all your help and making this possible. The kids had a great time.

Cade's Talent Show Performance

Every year Cade's school holds auditions for their Talent Show. Each class gets to send only one kid to perform for the whole school as well as friends and family. Last year and this year Cade was chosen. He is a great pianist and really plays from the soul. We are so proud of his talent and love hearing him practice as well as perform. It takes a lot of guts to play in front of your peers. Way to go Cade.

Cade, also participated in a piano recital this spring. He had to memorize 2 pieces and play them for a judge. He did great, he scored a 98 out of 100 and had memorized over 5 pages of music. He does a great job of pushing himself to excell.

Hannah's Dance Competitions

Thank You Amy, for another amazing year. Our girls did a really great job. They took 1st at all the competions as well as Best of Show and Best technique awards. We had the opportunity this year to attend Dance National Competition this year in Draper, Utah. Our girls did great. The competition was stiff but still came out on top. Her is photos of Hannah in some of her fun dance outfits.

This just makes my feet hurt. But don't they look amazing?
