It's great to be Eight!

Coby is turning eight on Friday, he will be baptized on Saturday. We are so excited for him, and so proud of the choices he is making. Coby is going to be singing a solo at his baptism. I had to make sure I gave my talk before he sang. He has the sweetest voice, and loves to sing. Coby is such a sweet blessing to our family. We love you Coby!!!

Moab Vacation

We arrived in Moab about 1pm on Thursday, checked in to our Hotel, and headed up to HeyJoe canyon. Matt had been there twice with the scouts and has wanted to take me ever since. It is amazing!! I was a little nervous about Matt standing so close to the edge. It is such a beautiful place. We were the only people there.

This is in the bottom of the canyon. The green river is on our left, and huge cliffs on behind us.

So many beautiful things, it was amazing to see!!

Perfect hole in the rock for a cool picture!What a awesome hike up to delicate arch!

This is the poison spider trail. It was so scary and fun, I finally understand why people love to do this!

ADRENALINE!!!

We had such a great time!

Winter Wonderland

Coby, Adey and Mom making snowmen. This was Adelynn's first time really playing in the snow, she absolutely loved it. She even made her own snow balls for the snowman. It was a fun Saturday snow day!!

Coby, Zach, Taylor, Ryan, Matt, and Adey.

She looks very confident in Matt's sledding skills.

Crib escape!!!!

I knew this day would come, just the other day I was laughing about a video I saw on America's funniest video about a baby getting out of his crib. I told Matt "I'm glad we don't have to worry about that yet." Three day's later........ she escaped. I put her to bed last night, she was fussing a little but she always just falls asleep. Well about 1 minute later she was running in the front room yelling BOO. Matt and I just laughed. Now she thinks it's funny. Oh well, now she can get a princess comforter for a bed. She will love it!!!

Do you think they were nice?

Nope!!!

It was such a great night. It was beautiful! We love them both very much.

Disneyland in October

I can't believe it has come and gone. I always wish I would have taken more pictures, but we lost the camera for the last day. We found it as we were leaving under the bed skirt.

We left Sunday morning and headed to Vegas with Herb and Linda & kids. We stayed at the South Point Hotel. That night we went to see the Vegas strip, and just as I remembered not intended for children. The shows are fun though.

We met Matt's Mom and Dad, and Cory and Julie &kids that next day and headed for Anaheim. That was the longest drive, there was a lot of traffic so we only went about 55 the whole time. Only 6 hours later and we were there!!! This is a picture of Adey getting ready for the first morning in Disneyland.

It was quite rainy the first two days, they were having lots of mudslide warnings and flash flood warnings in Northern California. Luckily it was not too bad where we were. The rain was like a fine mist. This is Tuesday morning. First day in the park.

On Wednesday we decided to go to California Adventure for the day. We were all excited for the Tower of Terror, and the screaming California roller coaster. This is Taylor and Coby running away from the plane by Soaring California.

Thursday, we decided to take a much needed break and relax. My boys went to Ryan's hotel to swim and play. Matt and I were going to go to the beach, but Adey was throwing her first fit. We decided to stay at the hotel and let her swim.

That night we did the Mickeys trick-or-treat party. It was pretty cool. Lots of people, but they all wanted to get pictures with the characters. The lines to the rides were very short, so we got to ride them all. The kids were so cute dressed up!!

Then our Monster Mash turned into Monster Mush!!!

They walked until they just could not walk anymore. Friday was our last day. It was hot that day about 90. We watched the fireworks again that night and Fantasmic WOW!! Both shows were amazing. I'm convinced that it does not matter when you go to Disneyland, it will be crowded. We drove for about 10 hours to get home on Saturday. Coby was very sick, and slept most of the way. Now I am sick, and Adey is starting to cough. NOT FUN!!! So glad we were all well for Disneyland.

No thanks, I have my own.

We decided Thursday we wanted to go camping on Thursday. We knew with the busy weekend we better hurry and get our trailer up the canyon. Matt and I took the trailer up to Lake Fork canyon where we found a nice spot, perfect for what we needed...........until, the forest service let us know that we could not let our kids ride the 4 wheelers unless they were certified. WHAT THE??? " Also, don't even let them sit on them, or we can give you a $200.00 ticket. "

Wow, didn't we feel welcome. With little discussion we decided the best thing to do is go to OUR LAND!! It is very hard to get a trailer up there, but we were determined!!

We made it, and it was the best camping trip ever!! The kids had so much fun, they wore blisters on their thumbs from the 4-wheelers. So next time we are going to go camping and need a spot, I can say "no thanks, I have my own!!!"

Good night Taylor and Adey

Good night Adam.

Now, lets have breakfast and go to Thistle!!!

Ya! We made it. Home sweet Home!

Zoey was wore out from chasing the kids around.

It was so much fun!! What a great family I have!! If feel very lucky to have a place to enjoy together. My dad loved to see us up there enjoying it. It is hard to be there sometimes, because I want to see him driving up the road, even if he did only complain that we were having Twinkies for breakfast, and that we were wearing shorts and flip flops. ha ha Sure do miss him!
