So the end of May we went on a little weekend get away with a group of friends. It was so fun. We went with the Smiths, Webbs and the Charlesworths. We had a great time even if it did rain a bit. Smiths have a ton of 4 wheelers and the Webbs brought up two of theirs and we had "Henry". So everyone had a great time 4 wheeling.

We not only 4 wheeled but the boys hiked and also killed 2 rattle snakes. The one did not want to die. Richard finally cut off his head. I mean completely separated it from the body and the snake, I kid you not lived a half hour longer. The head keep trying to bite and the body was like trying to reattach itself to the head. Weirdest thing I have ever seen.

Parker turns 16 Yikes

Parker is so excited the big day finally got here. He told his dad that he had to have the day off because of course it was his birthday. So he slept in until about 10:45 when I finally was able to get him to get up and just in time. At 11:00 his friend Quinsie surprised him with a knock on the door. (She had told him that she was out of town but she really wasn't) Anyway she brought over a darling present. Sheet music, candy and a gift certificate to Chille's. It was way cute.

Then he headed up to get the long awaited for DRIVERS LICENSE! Then he went to see some of his friends and then he meet the whole family (except Cody, he had to work and McKenzie was at girls camp... darn) at the front runner and we rode it down to SLC, got on Traxs and rode to Sandy and ate a super meal at "Mama's Spagatti It was great. Then back home for some cake and ice cream. Yum!!

Addi had a great time riding on the big train. We were also excited that Dixie and Art barely got back from St. George and were able to make the train and come with us.

Look out everyone here comes Parker.

Hurray for Graduations

She did it. Paige has graduated from Fremont. We are so proud of you Paige and we are so excited for you to embark on your new adventure at Utah State. But yes I am worried and will miss you horribly.








Parker is also so excited to be done with school. He had a great time being an officer this year and is looking forward to it again next year. He didnt even mind being the only boy with all five girls.









McKenzie also had a great time at officer and she received so many awards this year. She was on all four sports teams as a 7 th grader we are really proud of her for that but she also got so many academic awards. She really worked hard all year and had a great year.
