Celebrating freedom!

For the fourth of July this year we went to the Layton parade because Rylee had to be in it! "I'm not sure if I've ever been to the Layton parade, and not really sure if I ever want to go again. It was one of the most boring parades I've ever been to, but the kids enjoyed it and Rylee's cheer team looked great! After the parade we stopped and got some lunch to bring home and eat. We just hung out at home most the afternoon and then we went to our neighbor's house for a barbecue and to do fireworks!! It was so much fun!! Happy 4th of July!!

Celebrating in St. George!!

For Trevor's birthday and also to get away from all the rain we have been having, we took a quick trip to St. George for the weekend. We had so much fun and it was a well needed rest. We went and saw Annie at the Tuacahn theatre, we ate at the Spaghetti and pizza factory, we hiked in Leeds, we went swimming, Rylee and I shopped while Trevor took the boys to a movie, and we ate at Texas Road House! We had a wonderful time!!! Happy 41st birthday old guy!!!! I love you!!!

A change of colors...

Rylee has changed her favorite colors, or should I say her most worn colors, from gold and black, to red and silver!! It didn't take long for her to adjust from being an SJH cheerleader, to a Northridge Knights cheerleader!!


Rylee had such a great experience in Junior High being on the cheer team for 2 years. And then in ninth grade she served as captain of her team. She absolutely loved every minute of it, and it became her life. She made so many good friends and memories for those two years. When it was time to decide what she wanted to in High School she wanted to tryout for cheerleader again. I wanted her to tryout for the dance team and tried to persuade her that way. But she loves cheering and decided that was what she wanted to do in High School. So instead of going to all of Sunset Junior High games, we are now Northridge Knight fans!! I am so excited for her and all of the fun, new experiences that she has to look forward to in the next 3 years! Congrats Ry!!

GO KNIGHTS!!!

Don't be sad because it's over... SMILE that it happened!!!

Cheerleaders by chance... Friends by choice!!!

Take me out to the Ballgame...again...and again ... and again!!!

Wow!!! What an awesome season of baseball we had this year!! Both River and Ryker played this year and had so much fun!! Trevor coached Rykers coach pitch team. They had a lot of the ward and neighbor kids on the team so it was super fun for Ryker. He improved a lot and had so much fun.

River also had a lot of friends on his baseball team this year. They had a great little team this season and went really far in the playoffs. I think they ended up getting 3rd place in their division. River got to pitch almost every game and also played short stop and second base. He had so much fun and also improved so much.

Between the 2 of them they each had at least 2 games each week and 1 or 2 practices, so it felt like all we did all spring and half the summer was run to a baseball game or practice! But it was so much fun, I absolutely love watching them both play baseball!!

Remembering...Memorial Day 2009!

Ryker's program and field trip!!!

Ryker had his end of year program and a class field trip to the Utah house this week!!

His program was so adorable. All of the kids had a lot of special parts and they sang so many cute songs! I could tell they had practiced a lot, they all did so good and Ryker was so proud!

His class field trip was to the Utah house and then they went to the castle park for lunch and to play! I have been on a lot of field trips through out the years, but I had never been to the Utah house. It was so neat! I really enjoyed it and so did Ryker and his class! Lunch at the park was so much fun also. The kids loved palying on the big castle play ground and also running on the trails by the creek at the park! It was all so much fun! I am going to miss Ryker's teacher, Mrs. Toomey so much and so is Ryker. She was a wonderful teacher and worked with Ryker so well! He had a great 1st grade year and had so many cute kids in his class!!
