Abby is definately our stage kid. She loves to be the star of it all. It was her recital last saturday and did such a great job. It was so cute during broadway baby her shoe fell off and she kept trying to put it on, finally she just set it down and finished her dance. She will be on broadway someday!

Schools out for summer

The boys favorite song on guitar hero is "schools out for summer" at the moment!! They are so excited to be done with school. They both did very well this year. Braydon got the "BEST SPELLER" award and Cade got the "BEST STUDENT" award. I am proud of them both. 100% on every spelling test except one, good job bud! They had a dance festival outside, I have some great dancers!!

Preschool graduation

Its over, preschool days are gone. No more teaching kidos how to count to ten or say their ABC's, kinda sad. Well miss Abby had a great year with Miss April. She was a fantastic teacher and loves the kids so much. Her daddy was so kind to buy her "lilly's" her favorite. Hmmm... who do you think she got that from? :) K, captain abbers, off to kintergarten now!

"skullet"

on our trip Braydon decided his hair was way to hot. So kyle shaved it when we got home. It was so funny cuz he wanted a skullet. He always manages to make us laugh!!

Cades play and update

Today cade had a play at school! Cade was the narrator, He did such a great job! For all that want to know cades cat scan turned out fabulous, no tumor!! I still cant believe the doctors tell you thats what it could be before they know for sure. Scared us but He is doing great in school and just get to monitor it. Thats absolutely something to be grateful for! love ya bud!! :)

Cades the Author

Cades school class is always doing something fun. I love his teacher. This was their chance to show off the books they had been working on. It was the readers theater. All the kids got to read the stories to the parents. Cades was on Snakes...

Jeanine GL graduation

Jeanine started great life in April. She is working hard and I am so proud of her for being so strong!

cade loves the outdoors

We went camping last weekend up to maple canyon. Cade is my outdoorsman. He loves to fish, hike and of coarse shoot rabbits... Here is him shooting the gun.

Thanks

I just wanted to take A minute to say "Thank you" to all my friends and family that assists me coninually! I am truly grateful for all of you! I wouldnt be here today without you! I love you so much.
Also I wanted to share A fun game we started at dinner time. It is called the gratitude game. Of course we get to do rock paper scissors first :) Anyway. Each person takes a turn saying something they love about somebody else in the family or something they are grateful for about that person. Everybody gets a compliment before the game is over. My kids like to go around 5 times because they love saying something nice about everyone, I thought that was sweet. What started out as an attitude adjustment game for the night turned into an every night game :) Just a fun "food for thought"

Wow! Our BABY is riding a 2 wheeler!

SHE DID IT! Her cousin Ryker was her inspiration to finally want to ride her 2 wheeler without the training wheels. (thanks Ryker) It sure didnt take her long to do it! it was cute i was filming and she would look at the camera and forget to steer. I guess thats the photogenic girl for ya! I honestly cant believe my baby is riding a big girl bike.

spring break

This week was spring break and we have had A lot of fun. Monday we went to the park with Jeanine and her kids, tuesday braydon was actually sick but they still managed to play the WII all day, wednesday I gave the kids each 3 garbage bags labeled (keep, throw away and give away)- yes they filled them and with me helping lets just say the basement looks A lot better- those kids R amazing! In the afternoon we went to Denises and the kids all played while we had a great chat that night we went and saw Nims island, thursday we went to Thanksgiving point with Shandra and Amy to see the farm animals besides abbys bite by the sheep we had a lot of fun, in the evening we went over to the hardings and had a sleepover- yes even the mommies had a sleepover :) In the morning we went to the park since the weather decided to actually be sunny. Kyle got off work early and we went to the legacy center for a fun day swimming! Its been A fabulous week!

Rip stick days

Braydon and Cade love riding the Rip sticks.Braydon tought his friend Alex how to ride it yesterday. Everyday as soon as they get home from school their out on them. I think they thank Santa everyday! I dont know how they do it, I get on their and cant even begin to stand up let alone ride it. Kyle has got the hang of it and loves to go out and ride when he wants a break.

Dressin' up

Abby absolutely loves to dress up and put on make up. It is always the motivater to have her help me clean the house. :) She loves to be a bride, a model, and a princess. Oh ya she's a princess already! Her friend Riley and her love to do fashion shows and dances for the moms. They are always spectacular!! It was so funny on Braydon's birthday we were all downstairs talking and here come Mado and Abby in their bikini's and high heels, "look were models". Then what was the funniest was they both started posing. It was the hit of the party. I can always count on Abbers to make me smile and laugh :)

HEY! Is that Jim Bridger?

Over the past 6 weeks B has been researching and studying about Jim bridger. After the 5 page report he got to condense it down to a 2 minute monolouge. This was for a "Wax Museum" they were doing at school. It was so fun to hear him practicing in front of the mirror pretending to actually be JIM. He certainly has a fun personality. He got to practice for Grandma and PaPa, GG and many other family members, I think his favorite was practicing in front of his friend Tyler (being silly:)). At the museum they had to sit completely still until their button on the table was pushed. Then they got to share their part in history. All the kids did a fantastic job!

Taking A trip down memory lane

I was looking for songs to put on the blog tonight and it took my mind to the past. I started to look at old pictures of my family and had to share them with everyone I love. I have been so lucky to have been blessed with the most amazing husband and children. Each of them have their own special qualities and go through life each so differantly. Its crazy to think these 3 children came from the same two parents. (boy they must have some good looking parents!) Time goes by so fast we need to enjoy the journey. One of my favorite quotes is " THE ACHIEVMENT LIES WITHIN THE ACHIEVING"
