Antelope Island Stampede and Balloon Launch

Every year we like to go to the Antelope Island balloon launch.  Even though we have yet to see a real successful one.  This year was blustery and cloudy, but we went regardless. We got up early and loaded our bike into the van.  We ask Scott and Paige if they would shuttle us from the parking lot outside the gate to the event and then drive our van home afterwards so we could ride our bike.

Crazy Winds

It was cool. I'm glad I brought my sweatshirt.  They did try to inflate a couple of balloons but none could launch because of the winds.  I could see why it's scary to launch around alot of people because the ropes get pull across a huge area.  But it was an education and lots of fun. Kazzie ask if she could be the photographer and she took a few of the shots. We had a great time looking at all the beautiful colors.

After the disappointment of not seeing the balloons launch the kids needed a reward for their patients so over to the train ride we went.  They love this little ride and it takes a while so Paige and Scott sat down to relax while Paige fed Emy.

Proud of JENA

AWESOME FAMILY

Isn't she beautiful! Jena has been such an inspiration to us. She joined Riverton's Biggest Loser contest. She worked out on her own and watched her diet. She was always pusher herself hard and giving us all hope and inspiration for our own goals. At the end Jena's friends felt like she needed a make over since she was so awesome. She looks so incredible. She came in 4th place. It was amazing there was the tiniest difference in weight. Fractions of a pound. It was fun for us to see Jena and she didn't stop with the contest. She's gone on to run in half marathons.

We went to the Smithsonian and visited the aerospace, and others.

Emy Is An Awesome Addition To The Family

Emy was born April 28, 2009. At Davis Hospital Layton Utah

 We are so happy when we have cute little babies join our family.  Emy is a treasure here on earth and we love her.

Decorating the Easter Eggs

Paige's kids came over to Grandma and Grandpa's house and we colored Easter eggs. It was fun to watch. Evan of course did green, Kaz started with pink and Mason started with blue. As the night progressed the eggs got more creative. Mason liked to do multiple color dips, then we added the elastics, and then Paige started mixing colors. Scott make a Yoshie egg and a basketball eggs. It was a lot of fun.

Moab and the Glass Dolls

Whenever Moab comes over she likes to play with the porcelain dolls. We get them out and play with our dolls. Grammy and Moab

Mason and the Bunny

On Mason's birthday I told him that he would get a pair of Sunday shoes but I never got it done. Finally he told me that he needed his shoes. So when we were at the mall we found the bunny and Mason got his picture taken with him.
