Where To Begin?

I have 2 1/2 weeks to catch up here. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed. But here goes nothing.....starting from most recent updates on back.


April 2-5, 2011

St. George, Utah
We met up with Tyson's parents, sister Kristy and family, and sister Terah and her two boys for a long weekend in St. George! This was our trip through pictures. In no particular order. A view from a petroglyphs hike near Snow Canyon Petrified Sand Dunes in Snow Canyon Enjoying the nice weather playing two hand touch football

Why spend all that money going to Disneyland when kids are just as happy playing in a pile of dirt. Ayden, Tage and Gavin Tage with cousin Gavin. I think Tage was connected to this kid the whole weekend! Petrogylphs hike. Tage being a goat. Brigham Young's winter home. The one mile tunnel in Zions National Park. Occasionally they had "windows" in the tunnel. It was kind of trippy really. Mountain goats just off the side of the road. Tage and Emmry on the shuttle up Zions Canyon. The Narrows hike (Not the actual "Narrows" 20 something mile hike, but the waterfall at the beginning of where you would start the "Narrows" hike. Make sense? Ok. Weeping Rock hike Just off the shuttle ready to start our day in Zions!

So long, farewell......


I owned this 1998 Honda Accord for almost 10 years to the date. It sure was a great car! Oh, the memories......

It died back in mid February. From then till today it sat in front of our house not even being able start. Dead as a door nail. It had some major issues!

Well, today we SOLD it. Yep, sold a dead car off Craig's List. Ty told me to list it weeks ago, but I finally did it today. He told me to just list it for $1,000 but I put it for $1,500. I listed it a little after 4:00pm and within 10 minutes Tyson called me and said that his phone was blowing up with calls and text messages. Obviously we listed it for a steal of a deal. Someone was already on their way to come get it.

Looking back at it we should have just taken it off Craig's List and told people never mind, we weren't going to sell it and then list it again another day for at least twice as much.

Oh well, what's done is done.

Sitting up! Emmry can sit up for more than just 5 seconds without falling over! She is sitting up longer and longer on her own. I can tell that she feels so proud of herself because when I start to clap and say good job she ALWAYS gives me the biggest grin. I love it.

Cowboy up!


Have I ever mentioned how much I love the community where we live? Well, I do! They always have such fun events offered some free and some for just a couple dollars. Tonight they had a western themed event. SO MUCH FUN! They had a mechanical bull, calf roping (on those wooden calf stands), bouncy house, music and dancing, food, FREE family pictures, and much much more! We definitely enjoyed ourselves.

My garden is complete!


Sadly it was only a week (if that) that Zeus ruined it! To say I was mad would be an understatement. He jumped in and made himself a little bed smack in the middle of my beans, peas and carrots. Grrrrrrr! I smoothed out the dirt and just hoped that something would grow.
