Becca Leaving, So Ready for Summer

It is so hard to have Becca gone. Though, I am very envious of her Navoo temple mission. She will do great.

How can you not love that face? This kid is really something. He is so full of energy and excitement. I can't believe he will be two tomorrow.

My crazy boys. They are a lot of fun together, when they are actually getting along.

Poor Sasu, he's a good dog for putting up with those boys.

This is how Sammy ends up by the end of the day. He hates being dirty or wet. I think he just likes being in his undies.

Deb and I took our achievement day girls on a little hike up Holebrook Canyon. You gotta love 8 and 9 year old girls.

Sunday after Bec's farewell talk.

I let the kids run around the gateway. They really enjoy the water and fountains everywhere.

I am really going to miss her. Especially our friendship, her little visits to the house and her fun personality.

Growing Up

I feel like my kids are growing up way too fast. Where does the time go? My little Dean is so obsessed with his dino's, lizards, and let's not forget basketballs.
Do you think we look alike?

Best friends and worst enemies.

Dean tortures poor Sasu.

Look at that face. He is a pretty spoiled dog. We all love him and are glad he is part of our family.

Sammy is 3

Sammy loves birthday's. He couldn't wait for his own birthday to come. He talked for months about his presents and mostly his dragon cake I promised him. Yes, I did make his cake, but if it wasn't for grandma being here to help, I may have ran to the local grocery store to pick one up.

He is definitely a spitting image of his daddy.
Thanks grandma for all the help and spending a week with us.
We were pretty lucky. We had 8th row conference tickets. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Modbe Clothing

Have you ever heard of Modbe clothing? The clothes are way cute and modest. You have to check out their swimsuit line. I have 3 of their suits and I love all of them. Go to: http://jessica.mymodbe.com to see more.

Keeping Busy

As you can see the boys are rolling around with the dog, pretty typical.

Our neighbors have 2 dogs . The kids and now Sasu like to say "hello."

Becca went through the temple last Thursday. She is leaving the end of May to serve a mission in Navoo.

We took the kids to the sporting expo and this is them fishing. They may have caught a fish if they only new to keep quiet and not try and hit the fish with the poles. They had a good time.

2 Years

I still can't believe it's been 2 years since Gary's passing. Around this date I start looking at old photo's and thinking about the "good-old-times." It makes you appreciate the relationships you have with the people you care most about and realizing you want to make everyday count. Gary was a fun and enjoyable person and I feel very grateful cute little Gracie is here to remind us of him.

Our new baby boy Sasu

We just got our dog (German Shepard named Sasu) on Saturday and if I new what I was in for I might have double thought my decision. Puppies are very much like babies. This one requires lots of attention and I am even getting up in the night. Something I have not done in a while. We love him very much though and are happy he is in our family. We just have to get past the kennel and house training and I think life will get a little easier.
