Water Park Fun

We went up to St. George a couple of weeks ago for
Shawn's wedding. After the luncheon we had a couple of
hours to kill so we went to this park on main street my
nana told us about to play in the fountains. The park also
had a little stream that you could walk through and play in.

My nephew Dereck loved playing with Ava. She took
to him it was so cute. The whole weekend he wanted to
hang out with Ava.

Happy 12th Birthday Spencer

We went to Jumpin Jacks ( a bounce house place) for my
my nephews Birthday. All the kids had a blast and happy to say
so did the adults. It was a lot of fun to be there with everyone.

All the kids were playing tag, of course I had to join in.
Here is Cody and Garrett (more nephews) ready to start
the game again.

What a Big kid inside this adult body!!

Ragnar Relay

This is our Team "Team Fearless". We all had a blast doing this relay race together. Utah has some pretty country to run through. This was the race we did a couple of weeks ago which started in Logan UT, to Park City UT. 180.5 miles total over a 2 days. It was so much fun, we all can't wait to do it next year!!

This was on our van (The Insane O-Meter). Of course the Ragnar trumps all other running events!! check back later for some more photos. I am at my parents house with no pics trying to update my blog, nice uh. So more to come......

House full of sleeping children!!

Ok this is a rare occasion when my children fall asleep in the middle of the day. they are so worried they will miss something (especially Alyssa) so they fight naps even if they are waisted. Well last Saturday they must have gotten worn out because by the afternoon this is what i was surrounded by....Corbin asleep on the chair, and Ava and Alyssa asleep on some blankets on the floor. I didn't complain!!

Ava turns 1

A trip to New Mexico

Me, Alyssa, Ava, my mom, my brother and Kelli drove to Artesia, New Mexico for Edwards graduation. He is finally finished with the academy for the Border Patrol and can go home to his wife ( yeah for Kelli) It was a long 10 hour drive, but it was worth it to support Edward and be with family. I do have to say a big Thank You to Edward and Kelli for inviting Ava in their car on the way home, you guys are rockalicious!! It was a quick two day trip, but we went swimming at the hotel and saw Edward and his "class" do their morning routine of dicipline and just hung out.

Kelli and Alyssa

Alyssa helped the owner out in this antique store we went to. He let her paint the wall with him and help behind the counter wrapping the items grandma bought. She has to earn her keep somewhere, if only she got grandma a discount for all the work she did. maybe next time.

we walked down main street and ate at a little garden deli and saw a bunch of shops and statues. Alyssa and Ava loved being with Uncle Bryan and Aunt Kelli
