Moab 2009

This past weekend we went to moab with some friends of ours. It was such a blast! We rode the fourwheelers on trails and went to some really fun sand dunes. We camped at an rv site and stayed up late roasting marshmallows and talking. On Saturday We rode for about 6 hours, We all witnessed Brian and Kevin climb their version of the "Lions Back!" From the pictures it looks more like it should be referred to as the "Lions Baby Back Rib!" (Actually it was pretty darn steep.) Then later that afternoon We went to this big huge sand hill. It was so high and just sand everywhere. We climbed to the top (and then caught our breath for 45 minutes) and the boys had fun racing and rolling down it. On Sunday, We went to Arches National Park which was really cool. We had such a great time and can't wait to go back. We all had a great Trip!!!

The New Babysitter:)

Okay so I admit that I have used the fridge as a babysitter for Carter he is so fascinated with it. When I'm trying to cook dinner and he is fussy all I have to do is open the fridge and he has a such a ball throwing food out. I think this is the most adorable little face ever!

Family Pictures!

Sunday, We had Kathy take our Family picture. The boys all looked so spiffy in their Easter outfits. I think she did a great job. Thanks Kathy!

I took these after church and I couldn't get anyone to cooperate, but they are still cute!

Easter 2009!!!

We had such a great Easter weekend! On Saturday, We went to my parents for an Easter picnic. It was a lot of fun. It was rainy and cold, so we had our picnic in my dad's new shop. It has lots of room for the kids to ride bikes and run around. The kids played games and had bike races. There is even a hoop inside to play basketball. My Dad tried to teach me how to do the country swing, but I don't think He knew how to do it either:) We had a fun day!



That night we colored Easter eggs with the boys. It was so fun to be together as a family. They had a blast coloring and painting eggs. Colby even dyed his hands. He thought that was pretty cool!

Sunday the boys had to hunt for their Easter baskets and Colby's was locked in the Oven (silly Easter Bunny) Coop's was hid in a box where is toys usually are, and Chase's was hidden in the cupboard behind our garbage can! they had a hard time finding their baskets and the Easter eggs.

After church, Everyone came over to have Easter Lunch. We had a lot of yummy food and Easter treats. Kathy filled a bunch of eggs for the kids to have an Easter egg hunt. They had a lot of fun. Cooper drove his little prowler around to gather up eggs (He thought it would be faster, He cracks me up!) We had a wonderful weekend!

We are so very blessed and I'm so thankful for family. I'm so thankful for Jesus and His atoning sacrifice that He gave all of us so that we can return and live with him again.

Just Chillin'

Who says you need warm weather to have a party? All you need is some warm water and an ice cold drink in a fancy glass! The boys have been having a blast in the new hot tub. They think they need to get in it and relax almost everyday, and I have to agree, it is quite relaxing.
