Lake Powell






Lake Powell was great, the weather and the company. We had such a great time having Becky, Mark and Brianna there. Hope they did to. We went to Rainbow bridge, hole in the rock, dangling rope. Mark had never been so we had to show him all we could.

School is out and so am I!!!


The day school got out we headed out of town, down to Lake Powell where we enjoy a week of sun and water. But on the trip down we stopped in Nephi to fuel up and Mike's truck just shut off at the stop sign. No warning or anything. So Matt's burb pulled us to the Ford dealership to get it fixed. Of course it was Saturday so no one was working. We called Kathy and Kam and they came to the rescue with bringing us down Matt's truck. 3 hours later we were on the road again. Lake Powell here we come. 12 hours after we started we arrived. Long day.

Good Things Utah







Sorry I am a slacker, with school almost out life has been crazy. I went to a couple of fun places lately. First off my friends and I took my good friend Misty down to the show "Good Things Utah" for a surprise birthday. It was a blast, we got to meet the ladies, received lots of freebies, took great pictures and had a blast. Then went over to the gateway for shopping.
What a way to spend the day and she was totaly suprised. Our next journey is to spend the day at IKEA can't wait.

Piano Recital

Payton played "To Catch a Falling Star"
Rylee played "The Sun Will Come Out Tomarrow"




Thatcher played "If I Were a Rich Man"





I am so proud of them all. Thatcher and Rylee have been taking for 3 years, but Payton just started 4 lessons ago and he had his piece memorized and did such a great job.











One Sock Joe!

Payton has earned this name, anytime he comes home, either from school or church or even playing, off go the shoes and somehow only ONE sock. It never fails to make me laugh.

These are two of Paytons dance partners, the one on the left is his cousin and the other one is a 4th grader (he is ony 1st) he also has two more partners. What a Man!

We had such a blast this last weekend, me and three friends went to Las Vegas to the Bon jovi and Chris Daughtry concert at the MGM. It was awesome, we shopped and walked and walked all day until the concert. I haven't had so much fun in a long time. I have waited years to be able to go and see Bon Jovi so when I heard he was coming with Chris I called my friends and told them I was going who wanted to come?

Already Slacking!

Life gets crazy sometimes, and that is mine lately. I have been sub teaching for the last week and still have another full one to go before I get a break. The light at the end of the tunnel is that on the 12th I will be done and on a plane with 3 of my girlfriends on our way to Las Vegas. I haven't been to Vegas in over 15 years. We are flying down to go to the "BON JOVI, CHRIS DAUGHTRY" concert. I am so excited I can't stand it. I have wanted to see Bon Jovi for years. Now I get to go. It is going to be a blast. I'll have pictures to show when I return. But until then its work, work, work.
Soccer has also started, so between soccer, wrestling, football, piano and scouts there is not a day that is not full. Why do we do this to our selves. You think we would learn and try to simply life. But kids have their own agenda!

Ballroom Dance Compition

Who would have thought that the dancer in the family would be our son. Payton joined a ballroom dance class in the Fall under the pressure of his cousin. But he absolutely loves it. What a kick it is to watch him because he takes it so seriously. He calls his tux is his James Bond suit.
