2 more days of summer

well our fun is about to be over! I really enjoy the summer as much as my kids. We are able to get out and enjoy the time off school and work. We did lots of camping and swimming. Madi took swim lessons, Jake played in his first soccer tourn. which he was goalie, and did Awesome. Brayden and Curt went to scout camp for a week. St. George was the best and we can't wait to go back. On mon Brayden starts 7th grade and is Sooo excited. Jake will be in 2nd and our baby will start kindergarten, How time flies. I will post pics of the first day of school later.

Davis county Fair

We went to the fair and they had a baby contest which included up to 5 yr. olds so me and my friend, decided to put our kids up on the stage. Madi was very cute, i think, and she kept waving and blowing kisses to me but she ended up not winning but received a ribbon. Her friend Colton, the cute boy in the cowboy hat and big buckle did win the cutest Boy. Go Colton! This is really blurry but i didn't know how to take it off but it's of the kids at the petting animal part.
This is a better shot of Madison but I don't know where the animals were in the picture.
This is Jake wearing his Bandana like a motorcycle boy, he won it by committing to never chew or smoke. I always worry about gang stuff with him wearing that like that but I did think he looked pretty cute.

Summer Bowling

This is madison on wed. at our last day of bowling for the summer. The kids really loved it, I signed them up for something to do during the summer, but it ended up teaching them how to be pretty good bowlers.
Brayden, Jake and Madison received a trophy with their names on it and a Free mini golf pass for every month for a year. They were on a team with their friends so it was always a good time.
This is my silly madi just being funny.
Madison and her great friend, Marina. They love being together and they just had so much fun. After the 2nd game they were always to busy chit- chatting that me and Candyce bowled alot of their third game for them. Sparetime had a great idea when they put this together! It was $30 a kid but it was for about 8 weeks. We went every wed and were able to play 3 games each day with free shoe rental and cheap lunches for the kids during those 2 hrs. They also got the trophy's and mini golf passes.

Clint and Shalise's Wedding!!

My little brother was married on 8-7-08 and this is sad but these are the only shots i got all day. When i can get a hold of my moms camera i will put all the cute and fun pictures on here. This is Madison giving her new aunt shalise a big hug, she adores her and wants to be just like her. He was such a handsome groom and I am so happy for him. Since me and Curt just went thru the temple ourselfes, we were able to attend our first wedding in a temple. I was honored to watch. Even though she made me wear the most awful, pointed high heel, I still love her and enjoyed every minute of the reception. It was just like being at a carnival. With the mini cupcakes to the cotton candy and ice cream, What a fun time. Lots and lots of family and friends came out to see C.J and it was good to see everyone!
To bad I didn't get C.j in this shot but then again, Shalise was beautiful and all eyes were on her at first. I will be back on here to post the rest of there awesome day later. They are now in Florida at Disneyworld for the next 10 days, lucky them.

Family Reunion

This is my sister Kaycee and her husband, Dustin. Kaycee was enjoying blowing bubbles with the kids.
This is my dad, Jeff, who I love to pieces. What a wonderful man. Madi gets whatever she wants from grandpa!!
This is my lil sister and her boyfriend, Nate. No, that is not her baby. That is Jace, Kaycee's littliest. She seems WAY to young to have a baby but thats what everyone said when i had Brayden at her age. She works at a day care and loves her kids there, so she is smarter then me to not have a baby so young.
I hATE photos of me but I thought i would put this pic. on here since Jake did a good job taking it, this is me and my little girl who is starting kindergarten in just a few weeks. I will be lonely while my 3 kids are in school. Any of you that will be going to Dinosaur Park or anywhere please still invite me to go and I will help with your children.
Madison, Megan and Tayler all won pencil boxes with crayons and bubbles. Madi likes to dress the same as the twins alot. I love my nieces so much, but I am glad it was my sister that had the twins and not me. Kaycee is the most patient person I know and she does a great job with them.

This is our amazing family that came out to support us today. Thanks to our family and friends that made our day special!

The BIG Day




Ok so today was a great day. Curtis and I went through the Ogden Temple together on Wed and took out our endowments, so that today we could go and have our children sealed to us in the Bountiful Temple. It only took us 8 years of marriage to get there but we made it. What an awesome thing that happened to us. My children looked so beautiful (and so innocent looking) in the temple. I love my husband more then he will ever know and I am soooo thankful for him each day! He is my Best Friend and he makes me laugh every day. I am honored to be Brayden Jake and Madison's mommy. Thank you everyone that came out and supported us and being there for us along the way, WE were blessed to have so many family members that could go with us.
