Taylors Graduation

It is hard to believe that our little girl is going to be a freshman next year. Time sure goes by very fast. Taylor has always excelled in everything she has done. We are so very proud of her and look forward to these next four years.

Taylor and her great friends Morgan and Julia. I sure love these girls.

Mikey's Birthday

For Mikey's birthday Larissa had a surprise Halo Party. It was alot of fun. They set up big screens all around the house and everyone played eachother. She asked me to make the cake an xbox so this is what it looked like. The dinner was deep fried french toast. Oh my was it good. We had a great night with family and friends celebrating an amazing person. Love you Mikey

Trip to St. George

Last year around this time my cousin Darren invited me to run in the St. George half marathon. It was alot of fun and so this year I told Michael I wanted to do it again but wanted him to run it with me. He agreed and so off we went. We stayed at my sister Sunnis beautiful home with her great little family and had a great time.We brought Charley so that her and Luke could play together and she was so mad when we had to come home. Thank you Nick and Sunni for everything and Thank you Darrne for getting me to enter the race. I can't wait for next year.

Luke and Charley had a great time dressing up as super heros.
Michael and I coming up to the finish line. My emotions were flowing and I couldn't stop the tears.
Not as cold as last year but the foil blanket was still nice to have.
What a great group of runners. Next year I will give Michael the ok to leave me and run at his own pace. Thank you Michael for sticking with my. Sunni and Tami you are on for next year. You better be ready.

Charley's Birthday Surprise

About a week ago I asked Charley what she wanted for her birthday and she told me she wanted to go to Disneyland with Ellie. I just laughed and thought that her mind would change in a few days. Well that didn't happen. When anyone asked her what she wanted for her birthday she said to go to Disneyland with Ellie. So Michael and I decided we would make part of her wish come true and take her and Ellie to Disneyland. We didn't tell them we were going to Disneyland until we were almost there. It was great.

We thought it would be smart to see the princesses first so we raced back to the back of the park to the princess section. Ellie was so excited when we walked around the corner and Princess Belle was standing there.











I was scared to death on Splash Mountain that Charley was going to fly out so I didn't really enjoy that ride much. I didn't want to pay 20 bucks for the picture so I took one of the screen. I wanted you all to see Charley's little face. I think she was as scared as I was.
