Swim Party

Grandma Gwen had a swim party for all the grandkids. It was so much fun!!! Thanks Grandma Gwen.

It's Basketball Time!!

If you know Tug you know he is obsessed with sports! We are now having basketball games in his bed room everyday. It is quite funny. Both of them have to be wearing basketball shorts and jerseys. Tug informs me each time that i am the coach and they play for Boise State. Look out Boise State your future basketball player is getting ready!!

Easter

Easter morning i woke the kids up to tell them the Easter Bunny came. I am always more excited than anyone else in the house. It was a really fun day. In the morning we went to church with my parents. After church we went to there house and had a Easter egg hunt for the kids and had a bbq. Then we went up to Josh's parents and had a Easter egg hunt there. It was a great day. They kids love the Grandma's and Grandpa's! They also cant wait to see there cousins on sundays so to go to both places in one day was the best day ever.

Deer

It is so crazy how many deer we see come through the backyard and around town. I didn't see this many deer living in Paradise or Avon and Josh comments on how he has never seen this many deer either. It is crazy. They come through our backyard almost everyday. We love it. The kids think it is the coolest thing ever. On one day we were driving to Walmart and were about 4 block away from our house and we saw three 4 point bucks with four 2 point bucks all together by the side of a house. It is really fun to have them come in the yard so the kids can see them so up close!

5 favorite things

I guess i got tagged by Melissa on what my favorite things are. I was supposed to do this in 24 hours but i am not that fast. Oh well at least i a doing it now! I am going to some obvious and some you dont know about me.
1. Family - I couldn't live without my family. Josh is my rock. I love him more and more everyday. Tug and Stone are so fun! I love them so much! I dont know what i would do without them. Life is so fun with the family i have i couldn't ask for more!!!
2. Gospel - I dont know where i would be without my testimony of the gospel. It brings me happiness and peace everyday.
3. Family get togethers - Doesn't matter what kind i love them. I just love to get together with family and talk, play games, eat, whatever we do i love them!!
4. Toes - Sounds crazy i know but i love toes. I think the are so cute. All toes are different like snowflakes. They are just cute.
5.Purses - I guess that is why i sell them. You can never have enough purses.

I now tag Amy H., Heather Poulsen, Julie Davis, Melanie Gunnell, and Malorie.

I have the coolest GRANDMA'S

Grandma Chris (josh's mom) & Grandma Gwen (my mom) have decided to start teaching the kids how to ski. We went up to Beaver mountain. Chris took Tug and my mom took my nephew Kendrick who is Tug's best bud! They did so good for their first time. It was about the cutest thing I have seen in a while. Thank goodness for grandma's! I am so thankful that me and josh have parents young enough to do this. (He wouldnt be able to learn to ski from me. I think next year I will have the grandma's hold my hand while I go down the hill.)

It was really fun to watch! Tug's favorite thing was when he wrecked. I was in a panic watching him go on the lift but we made it through and now he is going up with grandma and I am at home!! Today he is up there with Grandma Gwen and Amy my sister and my nephew Marshall. He was so excited. That is a big step for me if you dont know me very well. I cant let my kids go anywhere without me there. I worry too much. He kept telling me that it was ok because if he fell today he would be fine because that is his favorite part!! I am so excited that he is having so much fun!!

Christmas 2008

I love Christmas!! It is so fun with kids! Tug asks way to many questions. He is too smart for his own good. Christmas eve night we went to my parents and played bingo and rock band. Most the family was there. I must say that i thought i had some sort of rythm and could play rock band ok but i learned fast that i should stick to my day job and just be a mom!!!(I have the worst record ever played on my brother steve's rock band) Tug thinks he is a rock star and stone dances to the music. It is pretty funny. On Christmas we go to the Whites for breakfast. It was a complete white out going up Weston Canyon. The closed the road it was crazy. We made it through (Josh thinks he can drive through anything)! We were all safe so thats all I can ask for.

Then we go to my parents for Christmas dinner at about 3. It was fun too. Its just nice to be around all the family during the holidays!!
