I LOVE MY KIDS

Trying to get pictures before church. 
 I LOVE this picture of Tag and Tenley


 This is the only one where everyone is facing the camera

Is this how it is when you try and take pictures of your kids? Maybe someday it won't be such an impossible task!

Perfect Shot

Nothing makes daddy happier than his children wanting to shoot their bow! Ty is doing it all by himself now and was making perfect kill zone shots! Tag still needs a little help pulling it back, but he has definitely improved since last year! Tenley wants to do everything her brothers do and she kept saying, "I shoot, I shoot!"  It was the cutest thing and after she would shoot she would say, "I get it, I get it!" (talking about the arrow)!! It was the cutest little thing to watch! Now I need to get it on video! I love this kind of "Family Time and so does Daddy!"

What We Do Best


Josh is so excited because he got a Big Horn Sheep tag this year! I am excited because it is right out our back door! This means it will be a cheaper hunt and he won't be gone on the weekends to go scouting and we can go scouting with him! Saturday morning we got up and went out to look for sheep. Josh didn't want to pay to get into Lake Mead, so we turned around and went out by Simplot.  We didn't see any sheep this time, but on the way back the boys begged us to go climb some hills, so we gave in!  We have been figuring out the new camera, but I think they turned out pretty good...darn shadows!

Happy Anniversary



 On May 21, 2005, I married my best friend! We celebrated our 7 year anniversary yesterday and it is crazy to think it has been 7 years! This year our anniversary was a little different because Josh left for FrontSight at 3:30am for a 4 day tactical handgun training! He was super excited and I was happy he got to go! I spent our anniversary doing my normal everyday mom thing! However, I did have something happen that is not an everyday or even every year happening! My sweet husband sent me those most beautiful roses! Every time I look at them I think of my sweet husband! He also bought me a new camera for mother's day and our anniversary and I am still trying to figure it out, but I did take a picture of the roses and the picture is so crisp and clear! I am so excited, now I just have to read all about it! This year I decided to put what we had accomplished or been up to in the past 7 years...hence the pictures of the kids! It has been a lot of fun and when we talked about anything we wanted to work on or change this next year, Josh thought we were doing pretty good! That made me feel really good and just hope this year will be as great as the rest have been! Happy Anniversary Babe! I love you!!



Tag's 4th Birthday










Can you guess who spiderman is?
On May 15th, Tag turned 4 years old.  When I asked him what he wanted for his birthday, he said,"I want a spiderman, batman, red power ranger, and optimus prime costumes for my birthday!" Thank goodness for eBay because I was able to stay in my budget and get all the costumes he wanted! He was so excited when he opened all of his presents! As a parent, that made my heart smile! We had a simple little party and I was so proud of myself for making the cake this year! In the past I just order one from the bakery, but in trying to save money, I made one this year! It was sooooo good too! I think this will be the start of something yummy! We had the Nelson and Greig families over and the kids just played and had a great time! He got an Optimus Prime transformer from the Nelsons, that he just loves and fun handcuffs from the Grieg's! The kids had lots of fun putting them on each other and of course trying on all the costumes! I think Tag had a very special and happy birthday! We played with friends in the morning and then went to McDonalds for his birthday lunch! What more could a kid ask for! 

Tag you are a super crazy, energetic little boy, but so tender hearted too! We just love ya to pieces and our so thankful to be your parents! You are a great big brother to your little sister, Tenley, and a great friend to your older brother, Ty! You love all your friends and really love going to pre-school! You are my little musician and LOVE to sing and dance! Your mommy and daddy love to listen to you sing and you have a lot of great dance moves! Thanks for being our Yaggy, Yaggs, Taggy, Taggy Magoo, Tag-er-rag-er!  We love you!!!

Valley of Fire

Anna and Tenley...they were great climbers!



Crazy that this is the same little boys...crazy and sweet
Isaac and Ty...darn it that it didn't turn out the greatest, but still a cool picture

Funny Faces, except I was the only one making them


My buddy Jackson...I love this little boy







This past weekend my friend Jill invited us to come out with her and her kids to Valley of Fire! We roasted hot dogs and marshmellows on Friday night and then Josh and I took Tenley home and the boys got to stay the night and have a sleepover in the huge tent! They were so excited and had a great time! What a great friend I have to take the boys for a night. On Saturday morning I went out to go climb rocks with the boys and they LOVED it! My boys are addicted to climbing rocks, so it was the perfect day! They were good sports for taking all these pictures!
