Preschool Graduation


My preschool graduation is over. I am glad for a break but I will really miss the children. It is amazing how close you get to them. I decided to decorate this year to make it cute for pictures. Thank you Brandie and Amber for helping put the balloon arch together, you guys are awesome. Also thank you to Cal, Devin, and Brittany for helping me blow up all of the balloons and getting everything ready. There is no way I could do it by myself. I appreciate everyone that helped me, I love you so much!!!

Silly Addie


Addie can't decide which she likes better, her bottles, fingers, or toes.

Make sure you wear sunscreen!!



Cal has not been very good at wearing sunscreen. He has had cancer cut out twice now by his eye. This time the Doctor decided to give him some $800.00 cream to use. He still might have to have it cut out again we will have to see what the Doctor says next week.

Addie's Home!!!!

On Monday May 16th, after spending three weeks and one day in the hospital, Addie got to come home. We went over to see her and she was so excited to be home. She was on the floor laying on a blanket and was rolling all over the place, smiling and talking. It is so good to see our little Addie back to her self again. So many prayers have been answered and we are so grateful to everyone that has kept her in your prayers, and for your concern.

Mother's Day



For Mother's Day this year all of the married children were away to their in laws. I told them that I don't like sharing it is really hard to get used to them being gone. We ended up going to my sister Jill's house for a bar-b-q and spending time with them and my mom and dad. Cal was really sweet had had a beautiful bouquet of flowers sent to me. The kids spoiled me with clothes, gift cards, a beautiful hanging basket and a pot of flowers for outside. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful family I don't know what I ever did to deserve such wonderful children. Another exciting thing that happened on mothers day is Devin received his patriarchal blessing. It was so neat to go and listen to all of the many blessings that our Heavenly Father has for him.

Devin's Antelope





Devin shot this antelope in Aug of 2010, with a bow. The taxidermy said he would have it done at Christmas and we just picked it up in May. What an exciting day for Devin. Now he can measure it against Dustin's and see who is the biggest!!

Addie week three at hospital




Addie is doing so much better this week. She is opening her eyes more, playing more, and getting back to her self talking and smiling. She started drinking from a bottle. By the end of the week she is drinking so good they might let her come home on Monday. We will keep our fingers crossed.
