Labor Day

We had an interesting Labor Day. We went 4 wheeling up by Baker Reservoir. We had a great time. Sunday, my mom and my 80 year old Grandpa loaded the 4 wheelers. When my Grandpa was driving the 4 wheeler up the ramp into the truck, it tipped over and landed on him. My mom couldn't get it off him, and he had to crawl out from underneath. He said that he was fine and drove home. Needless to say, he ended up in the hospital with broken ribs, a collapsed lung, and a severed liver. We are sure worried about him. I know that he would have been mad if we didn't take the 4 wheelers after all. Of course, my Mom stayed here with him. Get well Grandpa Harry! We love you!

Boys Day Out Fishing

The boys went fishing up to Escalante, Upper Willow. They all caught lots of fish. They were really beautiful. Garrett was a bit of a sour puss. Especially when it started to rain.

Kaden got his Life

Kaden had a Court of Honor tonight. He earned 10 merit badges, advanced to the Life Scout rank, and got his On My Honor award. He is only 5 merit badges and 1 project away from his Eagle. He is right on track to have it by his 14th birthday in March. We are so proud of you Kaden!

Garrett the Bobcat

Garrett just turned 8, so now he is a cub scout. He was so excited, that he earned his Bobcat and 2 beads on his birthday!!!

Happy 15th Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary Colby,I love you!

1st Day of School

The 1st day of school. Kaden started 8th, Rileigh started 6th, Garrett started 2nd, and Carly is going to preschool. I can't believe how big they are!!

Hallie's party

We had a great time on Hallie's 2nd birthday. We went to the Bear Mill and made animals. Then we had a party at Hallie's house. It was a cute Minnie Mouse party.

Hallie is 2!

My niece Hallis is 2 today! She is such a sweet little doll! I don't know what my kids would do without "Goobers". (I don't know how she earned that nick name) She is a crowd favorite at my house. We love you little miss!

Garrett is 8!

Garrett turned 8 years old today. The cool thing this year is that he turned 8 on 08-08-08. Pretty cool. Grandma Wallis thought that it was so cool, she put him in the newspaper. It was really cute.
Garrett had a sleepover party. We played games and watched a movie on the wall. It was a great way to finsh off summer. Happy Birthday G! We love you!

Breaking Dawn

I loved this book! I loved the way she ended it with closure. She is an amazing writer.

Lagoon

We went to Lagoon over the weekend. We thought we'd have one last hoorah before school starts on Tuesday. We had so much fun. We haven't been to Lagoon for 2 years. It's a family favorite. Carly's favorite ride was puff the fire dragon rollercoaster, Garrett and Rileigh's was the scrambler, and Colby and Kaden's was the new Wicked ride. I am so glad that we got to go.

Family Night Ice Blocking

We had such a fun family night. We went ice blocking with the Poulsons. Everyone had a ball. We stayed well past dark. We could hardly get everyone to quit.

More Pix

A few more pictures that Malea took. I just LOVE them!

New Pics

Garrett's turning 8, so I had Malea take some birthday pics of him, and a few of all 4 kids. She is amazing! Thanks.

Pioneer Day

We had a great Pioneer Day. We went to the Bloomington Hills Stake Celebration. Carly and G were in the parade. Carly complained about being too hot a sweaty. She wouldn't have made a good pioneer. (Me niether) We had lots of fun there. After, we went to the Roadrunner game with Chad and Annie. The game was great, and the fireworks at the end were amazing! Happy 24th!

Maesi's party

Carly had a great time at Maesi's party yesterday. They loved the slide. It was so fun.

Fun in the Sun

I borrowed my aunt Laurie's slide for our primary activity. We had to try it out at home first. It was so much fun. The kids couldn't get enough. Thanks Jeff and Laurie!!

Sunday Morning

Carly looked so cute this morning for church. We went out front and took a few pictures. She is finally starting to pose for me, and smile for the camera. I can't believe how big she is getting.

Ashlynn's Birthday Party

Last week, Carly went to Ashlynn's birthday party. They had it at the red park. It was a princess party. She had lots of fun. Ashlynn got a Hannah Montana wig. Carly tried it on. She thought she looked rockin!
