OUT ON THE FARM

The kids I spent the afternoon at a farm/petting zoo. In this picture they are in the back of a covered wagon where they ate lunch. FUN!
Andrea and Bizzy in front of some flowers and Andrea is doing her "fabulous" look. She wants to be a model someday!!
Bizzy and Andrea had fun feeding the baby goats. This was right up Bizzy's alley because she wants to be a veternarian. She LOVES animals.

1ST DAY OF SCHOOL FOR BIZZY

This is Bizzy on her second day of kindergarten. We rode bikes to her first day of school forgot my camera and wasn't about to ride home to get it. She loves her class and has made a lot of best friends already. I can't believe that all three of them are in school!!!

SORRY

Ok, I just got the internet working again and have been playing around with different backgrounds and now it is getting late. I need to get to bed because I have my first day of school tomorrow. This is not a permanent background so be patient until I have time to change it!

SHE'S A ROCKSTAR!

Bizzy and I had a few days to hang out before we started school so we decided to put on a rock concert. Because neither one of us are really any good at Guitar Hero, we decided to just play "air" guitar. It was a lot of fun but I still sucked!

WHAT AN ARTIST!

Andrea participated in a summer program this summer and had a lot of fun. She some arts and crafts and decided to enter her favorite into the county fair. Here she is with her artwork, ribbon and prize money! WAY TO GO ANDREA!!!

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!

Here is Alex on his first day of 5th Grade. He is growing up so fast! (that's why he reluctantly let me take only one picture!) He is really enjoying school. Andrea started 1st grade last week. She is such a big girl. I went on her first day to see her in the cafeteria and she said, "mommy, what are you doing here?! I am at school now." She waved me out of there in a hurry. Bizzy started on Monday so I will post her first day pictures later. It is so fun having them all in school. They all really enjoy it!!

AHHHHHHH!!!!

My computer/internet has been down for about a week now so thats why I haven't posted any new pictures. The kids have started school and Andrea won a prize at the Cache County Fair so as soon as I fix all the problems, I will post some new pics!

THE DOOBIE BROTHERS

Here are a few pictures of the Doobie Brothers concert that my dad got us tickets to. Not only did he get us tickets but he got me backstage. The company that he works for catered the event and as you can see from the picture where my two uncles are working, it was BUSY! I think my dad said there were almost 4,000 people there. I took a picture from backstage and that is my red, white and blue chair that is empty with my Aunt Deb sitting next to it in the blue shirt. I also got a few pictures(from a distance because I was too nervous to get up close!!) of the band. In one picture you can see my dad showing me around. Isn't he cute! It was a perfect night. Thanks Dad!

The Beach House

The beach house we rented was really cool. It had a "twisty" staircase with red carpet. Downstairs it had a ping-pong table, pool table and foosball table. We all had a really good time!

The Oregon Coast

While in Oregon, we spent 2 days at the Coast. My dad and Uncles came over for the first day. My Uncle Rudy almost got the birds to eat right out of his hand! My dad took Bizzy on a "treasure hunt" and they found some really cool things. Alex also worked really hard on his little city he built.

FAMILY BBQ

On Sunday my family all got together for a BBQ but I was only able to get a few pictures because my battery died. I did manage to get pictures of cousin Vinnie (Aunt Flora) and Aunt Deb having fun. Then I caught Uncle Fred with Uncle Rudy on his lap. Bet you can't guess whose the "big" brother! Then there is my cute Aunt Velia. I had a great time THANKS GUYS!

GOOD COMPANY, GOOD FOOD AND FUN GAMES!

Here we are at the finest pizza place in the whole world...The Home Place Pizza in Silverton. When we were little we would eat here a lot. It was fun for Grandpa to take the grandkids out to eat kind of a trip down memory lane for him (even though he wants them to call him uncle!). He also enjoyed feeding a line a BS to Aunt Debbie and Aunt Roberta about his pet skunk. It was a fun afternoon.

Family Vacation to Oregon

We just got back from our trip to Oregon to visit family. We had a great time. I was fortunate enough to be able to pick up my neice and nephew and take them with us to hang out with Grandpa. We went and played at the park that my sisters and I played in when we were growing up. We all had a really fun time and I don't think you could find a more proud grandpa! Here he is with 5 of his 9 grandchildren!

Alex got his Webelos badge!

Alex really enjoys scouting and last week got his Webelos badge. He has worked really hard along with me and his scout leaders to be able to mark off all the requirments. He is a good boy!

Happy 6th Birthday Andrea

Andrea celebrated her 6th birthday on July 24 and because in Utah we also celebrate Pioneer day on that day, she gets fireworks for her birthday! It was a good time for everyone.

We have had a really great summer but one of the highlights was going boating. Some friends of ours invited us out on their boat and as you can see by Bizzys "thumbs-up" they had an awesome time! Thanks Lindsay, Jeremy, Rylie and Tyson!

HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL!!

We had a family reunion in June and on the way back I thought I show the girls where they filmed High School Musical and we got lucky! They were actually there filming on the day we passed through. We were able to "sneek" on the set and watch them do a little filming. It was pretty cool.
