life

This week the boys are gone. I miss them and worry about them. One thing that will hopefully help take my mind off the worry is on Wednesday me and my sisters are going to meet up with my mom and Aunt Kathy( and her family) in Park city. This week is girls week. No Children. No Husbands. Just the Girls of the family. We're making an exception Wednesday afternoon because my Cousin Jeff is in town so he and Uncle Rick are coming up to spend time with those he hasn't seen in forever. I can't wait to go swimming! I need a good swim. Lots of Loves!

Shade

Just want to let everyone know that Shade is having a sale on there swimwear. I got three Tankini tops and a pair of bottoms for the price of one swimsuit and they are modest and cute. Not granny looking either. So if you are looking for one, go check them out or check out there web page http://www.shadeclothing.com/. :) I'm planning on getting a brown skirt to match the brown flower top. For some reason it turned and I can't get it to go back.

Happy Birthday America!

What beautiful weather we had for the week and weekend!

= Brother Jon

=Mom

= my sister Tamra playing an old game of toss the ring with my mom

= Owen and Andrew coloring and putting stickers on everything. You see that dot on Andrew's head? That is a flag sticker. He loves to put stickers on himself.

My brother Jon was in town for the fourth of July weekend. We got together with family, went to the Freedom Festival activities, the Parade in Provo, and watched fire works of Stadium of Fire from the Provo Temple. We even played Guitar Hero and Wii.( the Lunges hurt after a day or two)

=Andrew =Ryan at the Parade with Ben's family

Everyone had fun!

UpDaTe

So the weather has been weird. During the day it could go from bright and sunny, 80s then by lunch time drop 10 to 20 degrees and be raining cats and dogs. Finally, it has gotten better where this week we had three days in a row that didn't have rain. The boys finally got to go swimming in there pool. They have been waiting for about a week.
They had fun! So much fun that they crashed right after.



Today was a nice day. It rained later on this evening and I ended up getting video of a full rainbow and the attempts of another on top of it. Gorgeous!

Before the parade passes by.........

This shirt was puffing up when I sat down. It makes me look like I have rolls or something.Aurgh but it was cute AND FREE!

The day of baby judging, Elmo showed up. The best thing ever. Here's AJ's hair colored. We went to Uncle Alen's classroom to show it off. It was fun to get AJ out of his shell but Thank goodness the color was washable.

Eagle Mountain has there special days week called Pony Express Days and this past weekend they had there parade. My brother Alen and his two oldest girls were in it. Even Cosmo the BYU mascot showed up for the event. AJ loves Cosmo! You can see video of Cosmo on my facebook page. GO BYU!!

The latest and great of randomness updates. Say what?

Here we go.........

March: OK trip to see my brother David
me,David, my sister Tamra, and sister in law Marilyn( Alen's wife) got together for one last time before we had to leave to come back to UT. David is doing great and is a miracle story. His Kidneys as of today are in full function and he no longer has dialysis after like six weeks of it.

April/May: Sometime during lunch right before going out to play in the sprinkler. What cuties!

MAy 25th: AJ and Babyboo both fell asleep on the way to the veterans memorial. We got a family picture at my Dad's grave after they woke up.After spending some time there, everybody who came went to Alen and Marilyn's for dinner and chatting. I love my family

Babyboo and Elmo too

Well, boo didn't win but that's ok. He, for the first time, became shy in front of the judges and only smiled once when we talked about elmo and snickers our cat. Almost as if he was tired. He will always be a winner to me. He was in the top five out of all the kids his age( which out here is alot of kids). After the judging, we got our picture taken with Elmo. The boys love Elmo! I still need to download pics from memorial day( the computer crashed) so I'll do another blog with pictures from then till now. I'm glad I had pics on my blog and facebook because I lost all the others. I hadn't saved them on to a cd yet. That should teach not to procrastinate. Hopefully.

Thing are ok. AJ and Baby boo get to see there daddy once a week on Tuesdays and two weekends in the month. On Tuesdays, after I take them to Ben's, I go to the Wilkinson Center on BYU campus and practice the piano, then I go to the Kiwanis park to run/play soccer/ play ultimate frisbee, whatever , to have my therapy time. I say therapy because music helps me mentally and emotionally relax and release stress and the sports help my physical release of stress with out hurting anyone. It's great and only costs the amount of gas to get to those places. I use to kick a soccer ball against the house when I had a hard time with school work as a kid. Works pretty good.

PS: HAPPY ANNIVERSARY DAVID AND KRISTI, HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHILOAH!:):)
