My kids did another play at the EAC children's theater titled Peter Pan they all did so good. we are so proud of all of them. Emily was a beautiful fairy, Katelyn was a splashing mermaid, and Hunter was a funny little kinda mean pirate, ahoy maties...

Emily Turned 9 yrs. old. My baby is growing up and maturing so well. Here she is opening presents and getting woke up with the happy birthday song. We love you Emily so much and we are proud of all the things you do.

THE BIG PARTY


Emily and Katelyn have one big party every year because their birthdays are only three days apart. Here is 2009 birthday party of the year.

They got lots of presents. My friend Beth Green made these beautiful flower birthday cakes, thank you very much. They had a hula birthday party..

All the kids jumped on the trampoline and played in the pool.
Katelyn and her friends basking in the sun!

watch out for those poles at wal-mart


I am an idiot, I still can not believe that I did this when I look at the pictures...
I was making a sharp turn across the cross walk at Walmart and was looking out for
pedestrians and not for POLES and boom bang wha-La, a minor accident!!
my truck is in the shop with 4 thousand dollars worth of damage, yikes.
only ME, it could be worse no one was hurt thank goodness.

Easter 2009 on Sunday




We had a Easter get together with Chris's family on Sunday.
The older cousins Adalyn and Dallon hide the eggs. It was so much fun for the kids.







Here are my beautiful children in their Easter clothes. I am not a very good photograaapher because I always get them with the sun in their eyes and they are all squinting. Hope everyone had a great Easter.

Temple Rocks



On Easter sunday our primary children got to sign their names on rocks and then the rocks where put in the foundation of the Gila Valley Temple in AZ. We were so excited and I took pictures of all the primary kids. Here are the ones of my children. This is such an awesome experience for us to have a Temple being built in our valley. We drive out and see the progress every week. Right now it is just dirt work and foundation, but soon it will be so much more, what a blessing in our lives.


Katelyns Birthday


Katelyn had a good Birthday. I can't believe she is seven wow!


These are pictures of her opening her presents before she went to school. We let them do whatever they want for dinner and katelyn asked her daddy to take her on a date, she thought she was a queen. We love you katelyn and are so proud of you.









This pic is kinda goofy we sang happy birthday
while she was still in bed, wake up wake up!!





Planting our Garden






We finally planted our garden and it is so nice to go out and look at. The kids had so much fun digging in the dirt and picking the places for each plant to go. It isn't the most perfect garden but our kids did a lot of the work and they are proud of it. I love to see their faces light up when they get so excited that a new plant has emerged out of the soil. What a wonderful experience for them to learn. Heavenly Father has given us such wonderful things, little miracles everyday!!
