Hello Summer...

Wow! it has been so long. Kids are now out of school and we have a fun summer to look forward to. We have already been to Vegas. That was a lot of fun. We will be doing the Star Valley thing several times this summer starting this weekend. Yay. Kiley goes to Young Womens camp tomorow and Haley will be doing Mill Hollow camp next week.
I will try to keep this a little more current for the maybe one other person who looks at it, but for right now, this is all.
I made this photo slider for Father's day. It's a bit long, but kind of fun.

Hello Summer...

It has been a while since I last posted. Life is good. Kiley just turned 13 a week ago. I can't believe how time has gone by. I feel like it was yesterday when she was Little like Jax. (of course she was probably only 7 or 8 months instead of 18) I am going to post some pictures of her soon. She is a beautiful girl. She is doing well in school and all of the girls are in dance right now. They have a few performances coming up. That will be fun. In November we get to go to Disneyland and they are going to dance in the parade that will air Christmas morning(?) We are all excited for that. Jax is doing well. He is growing and learning. We are working on getting him to walk now. He walks well along furniture and he is starting to stand by himself a little. I just feel so blessed right now. It is spring and the beautiful flowers are popping out, the birds are chirpping and it is becoming the time of year I love. We have already been to the zoo a few times lately and the park once. Jax loved the swing. I am excited for all that spring and summer have to offer.

Introducing the 3rd place winner.......

We had a lot of fun last night at the Jazz game. Jaxon had the opportunity to be in the 1/2 time show. It was a diaper derby. (crawling contest) There were 10 kids total. He won a 100$ savings bond and a 25$ gift certificate. We got to hang out with the Jazz dancers and the Jazz bear. I put black leg warmers with flames on them trying to strike fear into the competition. (Alex was not too thrilled about putting leg warmers on, but they are very manly) I coaxed Jax along with a tube of mini M&M's. I'm curious to know what the other 2 used for motivation. I might demand a steroid test. It was a fun night and we are proud of our little man.

This year so far...

Well, I feel like I don't have a lot to write about right now. Things have been pretty good around here. Jax is an old pro at crawling and getting around. He pulls him self up to the furniture now. His only word is still Hi and we am trying to get him to learn a few more. I am going to try some signs and see if he catches onto those. He is a sweetie. He is doing so good sleeping at night now. (knock on wood) Alex hurt his ankle at basketball 2 weeks ago. He has been hobbling through the house and had to go back to work 2 days ago. Poor guy! The girls are all doing well. I am looking forward to spring and a little warm weather. Maybe tomorrow we will get some good news from the groundhog.

Happy New Year!

Well, there we go. Another year has begun. What will we make of this year? All I can hope is that we are healthy and happy and create some fun memories a long the way. 2008 was a good year. I've blogged most of the highlights. Star Valley, Disneyland, Pineview, Kindergarten, Jr. High, etc. Recently Jax had another visit with his cardiologist and for now, everything looks and sounds good. Yay! Also, I need to add that on New Years Eve, Jax started crawling. What a big boy! He's such a sweetie and has blessed our family so greatly. All of our children have. They all have wonderful and fun qualities and although life gets crazy with 4 children, They are also what makes it all worth it. So, here's to another great year to come!
