I love seeing the sprinklers on when you drive by farms....

Park City....

Bryce.....
Tay is PASSED OUT!!!!
Still asleep....
This can't be comfortable!!!!
I love these kids!!!



Well a day trip to Park City was had by our family. I love it there. Going thru the canyon to get there, windows down, county (yes I DID say country) music playing.... just being with my family. For me I love to look out the window and just think.... I think of when I was a single mom with just Taylor and how we struggled but had such an amazing bond that has gotten stronger over the years. I look back and am SO thankful for the few years I had with just her and I. Then I think about dating Marc and how exciting that time was. Staying up late every night and NOT being tired the next day (WHY is that soooo different when you are married??) the little moments that are so new and exciting and yes I will say it..... MAKING OUT FOR HOURS!!!!!!! Then I think of when Bryce joined our little family and how I LOVE that whole newborn baby phase. Nursing in parking lot's, women's lounges and even discretely in booths in resturants. Oh how I miss those times. Now my children are older and time seems to fly by. But new experiences.... and the bitter sweet that comes with watching them gain their independance from me.....warms my heart. I never knew I could love another human being SO much until I had children. There is just something different when it is your child.... I think I love Prove Canyon so much because I do so much thinking everytime we are in it. There is something about the beauty of that canyon that touches my soul EVERY SINGLE TIME!!!!!! It never ceases to amaze me of the gift that beauty.....

Bryce's big day...





So today is a special day for our family. Our youngest son was Baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It is a big and important event in our lives. I can't believe my little boy is 8. WHERE has the time gone. We had family and good friends there to support Bryce. It was a really sweet day and you could feel the Spirit. I held my breath at times because I swear I NEVER know WHAT will pop out of his mouth at any given moment. After we had light refreshments and Bryce opened cards and gifts. His dad and I got him Scriptures (quad) with his name engraved. He also got a Journal, and a great Baptism book from our sweet neighbors. It was an awesome day!!! Now we have cousins over to play and are hanging out and just enjoying today.... I love my family SO much and am thankful we can be a family forever.

Memorial Day.....

My new bike and I will be hanging out alot this summer....
Memorial Day was also my husbands birthday. So what else to do than go to the ZOO!!!! With 2 extra 12 year olds. And we had a BLAST!!!!!! Of course I forgot my camera, dang it. But the new pic on here was taken via cell phone. Gotta love modern technology. We then went to dinner at Texas Roadhouse for dinner and ate and ate and ate! It was yummy for sure.
The kids are out of school and we are just waiting for some summer weather. I am not going to complain because before I know it.... it will be 97 degrees. But I AM ready. Summer pool pass is bought, sunblock is waiting and I hear my bikini begging to come out and play... I MUST have patience. Bryce is taking a reading camp for the month of June and he will also be going to Scout Camp AND get Baptized June 12th. I am so proud of him. Tonight we walked around the neighborhood picking up trash and he was telling us how it is important to respect our planet. (for Scouts) It was really cute to hear him explain. Taylor will also be going to girls camp this year in June (her first girls camp in YW). Time is moving WAY too fast! So June is going to be a busy moth for us! I am trying to make a trip home this summer..girls trip with Tay and I. So we are aiming for July. I hope you all have a wonderful summer!
