THE CARNIVAL

We took Payton to the Pleasane Grove Carnival these are a few pictures she had soo much fun. I was afraid she would be scared but she did great and just kept wanting to do more. her favorite was the Donald Duck video she loved it!!

Treyson 4 Months old!!

So Treyson Turned for months old on June 20th he is such a cutie. He loves to eat and eat and eat. I think he is almost 13 pounds at this point which isn't huge but his sister at four months was 10 pounds and 8 ounces she was such a little thing he seems a lot bigger. He has been sleeping through the night for about a month now and it is great. He loves to be held which is a little hard to get things done. We love him and his smile here are a few pictures of him trying rice cereal!!

HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!!

I have to admit I got this idea from my sister but I have been liking what she has done on her blog so I thought I would start doing it. I wanted to blog about fathers day and tell my Dad how much I love him Fathers day was bitter sweet for me because although I got to celebrate all of the great fathers alive in my life, I missed my Grandpa Dee a lot this week. I love him soo much and truly miss his presence in my life. I know that every thing my Dad learned he taught us and he learned it from his Dad!!! Here are a few things I loved about my Grandpa and a few things I love about my Dad you will find they are very similar!!!!

I few things That I love about my Dad is that he always taught me to do my best and never settle for less. He did this by expecting my best at all times. I remember thinking he was sooo mean but thank him for it now. He taught me hard work and that I should always be honest. He always taught me that I didn't disrespect my mom. I knew that if I gave her a hard time and he knew about it I was in big trouble. He taught me to always give hugs and kisses before leaving. I love you Dad!!
A few things I remember and miss about my grandpa is PIG farming. He gave me my first job and taught me what it was like to work out in the hot sun all day. I loved that sooo much. He taught me that family is the most important thing you will ever have and that it always comes first. He taught me to keep a family close and spend a lot of time with them. I sure do miss him. I love you grandpa!!!

A Fun Weekend!!!

My sister Tara Came up this weekend and we did a couple of fun things. We went to the Zoo and also the temple open house. It was really fun even though the day at the zoo ended up not being the best do to the rain. This picture of us at the temple is terrible of all us but it was the best one of all of the pics so it will have to do. My sister has recently went back to church after 13 years of inactivity. I am soooo proud of her and look up to her so much thanks for all you do for me and my kids "T" we love you.

This is all of us below the tiger he was cool.

THE BABY CONTEST!!!

Payton and Treyson were in the freedom festival baby contest. Micah's mom has this tradition of taking her kids to this baby contest. So we took Payton last year and she won second place. This year Treyson won second place and well Payton had way to much competition. Of course I think she should have won but I could be a little unfair. Anyway here are some Pictures of them. Payton had so much fun in the playroom there. So if you ever want to occupy your kids, take some packing foam and put it in a swimming pool Payton loved this. She played there for about an hour. This is an amazing amount of time for Payton, she usually doesn't play with anything for more than 5 minutes. I love this kid!!!

She looks so focused I love this picture.

There is trey trey sooo cute I love you buddy!!!!

I RAN A 5K!!!!

These are some Pictures of my 5 K run. I actually did two this last month and it was sooo fun. I ran both of them with Yolanda Morris. We ran our first one alone without the kids. I ran the whole 3.2 miles without walking and was so proud of myself since this is the first time that I have been able to do so. The next one with walked with the kids I took Payton and she of course took Gabe since he is her only child. Anyway it has been really fun. I am trying to get in shape it's a hard thing to do!!!

The Hot Weather!!!

So we took a trip down to southern utah and Mesquite Nevada to visit all of my family. Payton, Treyson and I went with my cousin Daniel who just got off a mission. It was really fun. While we were down there we were able to see all the family and have a lot of fun here are some pictures of the trip. We went miniature golfing. This is Payton playing she had so much fun hitting the ball around
This is my crazy sister or as Payton would say nant nie!! Meaning Aunt "T" and my cousing daniel. It never amazes me enough what my family will do. They are trying glasses on in Pac Sun yes they are 30 and 21 he he I love it!!!

These Pictures are of Payton in the pool. One of my favorite things to do when I go to see my family is to go and swim in Grandma Dianne's pool. I love going to see her and everything else that comes with it. She is one of my favorite and most admired people in this world. She just had a birthday happy birthday Grandma.

This is Daniel he was such a good helper. He is bathing Treyson in my sister's sink. As anybody can tell he is the oldest of six. He has had a little experience with kids!! He is sooo cute any of you girls who are single.
