Mr. T-BAll!

It has been fun watching Ryker take action this year with his first t-ball experience. He is already hitting from a pitch but the city told us that this is where he had to start. Every Tues. and Thurs. evening (except for the 3 rain outs) this is what we have done. It has been so much fun. He loves it and looks forward to it every week. Last week was the end so he is kinda bummed but i informed him that there is no worries, we start soccer in the fall! Yes, that is Norm in the back ground. He was at almost all the game and coaching half the time, thanks Grandpa. Ryker had so much support from everyone. Grandpa & Grandma Bott, Grandma Carr, Aunt Sonia, Grandpa and Grandma Norman and of course US!

Girls Summer Party June 2009

These ladies are a blast, what fun we have, eating, fighting over gifts and talkin.... 2 times a year we all get together thanks to the original 2 that started it, Betty and Linda... now there is sometimes up to 30 women. You have to be 18 or older to get to come and that includes th ladies that started it, the friend they have invited and their sisters, mom and daughters. It is quite an honor to be invited. Once you are invited the first time is is hard to be uninvited. I invited Mandi about 4 years ago and she has come ever since, this was Heathers first time, hope that she will come back!

THE BIG GAME!!!

Becky, Bev & i

My sis, Mandi, me and My friend Heather...

Me, Cara and Mandi The hosts for this party.... Food was Delicious and there was plenty of it!

Good times!

I just realized that I did not get any pictures with Bev. This is sad because the whole reason we were down there was for her. She did an art show and it was fun! There was some neat stuff down there, some real talent. Sorry Bev, hope to catch you next time..... We are actually going again over the 4th of July so we will make sure to get you in the shot this time! Love you!

It was fun having everyone there...

Fun shots from Memorial Day weekend!

Petting Zoo @ Hole in the Rock.. Crazy Goat!

Just watch this goat, he is so nuts over getting fed he totally charges the fence at Ethney, the funny thing is that it does not even spook her.

Memorial Day! Hole in the Rock and petting Zoo...

This Rock is actually a 14 room house that was lived in for may years... The Petting Zoo was great...Ethney loves Animals, rediculously actually so this was right up her ally.. she got to feed them and oh how they loved her..

This Jeep was made out of anything metal.. wrenchs, spoons license plates, it was cool....

Wobly camel... walking by...Hooded feet and Hooded eyes.... what a blast, thanks for going with us Grandma Bott.

Lake Powell- Mother's Day!

Our good friends invited us last minute to spend Mother's Day weekend in Lake Powell. How do you say not to that - you don't! We had such a blast. Fishing, swimming, tubing, skiing, playing with the ducks and the lizards....We even had our own little jam session one night dancing and singing our gutts out, it was a blast. Thanks to the Baers for thinking of us.

Ethney loved being on the boat. She evern warmed up to her "Mike" you kindly took her tubing and danced with her in the jam session.

The Baer family, Mike, Joselyn, Lorna and of course... Mason.

The House Boat! Wow, now that is living... i could go to the Lake any day in that. We ate like kings and played like children! What a great weekend.

Grrrrrr!!!!

This day was fabulous! We were just about the only ones there, it was nice and quiet. Grandpa has never been so Ryker had fun showing him around. Of course we had to take him up to the moving Dinosaurs first! Scary! They actually had a few new attractions so that was fun.

The Dinosaur Park!

I suggested to Ryker that me go to the Zoo today, he requested the Dino park! So here we are. We stopped by and took Grandpa Norman with us, this kids loved it.

The one that fits -

Grandpa - what a sport, this is why they love him so much!

We had to feed the fish, and i tell you there are some big ones in there!

He loves ME!

After a couple of crazy days and thinking that i needed to google "Children that don't listen to their parents" this is what comes... How does he know... "How does she know he loves her..."if you have never watched "Enchanted" Disney... it is time, Thanks Bry, i love u too!

WICKED!!!!!!! Take one.....

So, after my cousin Kristy talked me into reading the book, the next best thing was to finally see the Broadway Play. At that time who knew it would come to Salt Lake, but it did! You betcha, we got our tickets and it was AMAZING! I have not stopped singing it since. What a great night... dinner first and laughing and crying to wrap up the evening, a perfect girls night out! Oh yes, don't forget there was shopping too... i ended up with 2 new green shirts... Go Green and Defy Gravity.... how grateful that i am that "I have been changed for good!

I love these nights... looking forward to the next....

Low and behold, there's Josh and Jen.... Nice you could make it too!

A couple reason that i love SPRING!

This is one of my favorite times of year....everything is blooming and the weather is warming up...the new life that we get to help create yet it actully feeds us in return...i can hardly wait for the harvest already... This is just the beginning... Monday, i planted my garden... tomatoes, cucs, jalapenos....you name it, i got it....Here I COME!!!

Why do i not do this more often?

Easter Jeep Safari 2009

Wow! What a week, like always we headed down south for a fun filled, rock crawling, Easter Bunny visiting, partying weekend! Along with those we love, we had a blast as usual. Maybe next year we will stay a little longer. Thanks to all who were there and helped us enjoy ourselves. It would not be the same without you! See you all again soon. Lucky for us we made it home unscaithed! ( Is that a word?) All that working on the jeep pays off! Now i will get my husband back! And if you watch long enough, you will see, no roll overs this time for us, yipee!
