A LITTLE VACATION!

We had a little family vacation last weekend, minus the girls. They had cheer camps, birthday partys, and parade performances, so they decided to stay home. Bryan's brothers little boy Seth was getting baptised so we dicided to go down a couple of days early and make a much needed vacation out of it. Thanks Jason and Katie for letting us stay with you guys. We ALWAYS have fun when we come.

On Friday we took the kids to this park that was between Provo and Orem, I think. It was SSSSOOOOO fun. There was tons of swings, slides, hiding spots. They had a volcano, space ship. The boys loved it. And of course, the girls had fun too. Oakleigh LOVED the swings. We were there for over 3 hours!!!

After we left the park we grabbed some lunch and decided that since we just had the boys we would stop at the Harley Davidson shop in Provo. They LOVED it! They had this motorbike that the kids could ride on, we couldn't get them off.

This is my little Biker Babe!! :)

Corie and Oakleigh going for a little ride!!

This Oakleigh and baby Jax, Bryan's sisters baby. Oakleigh just LOVES him. When ever he is around she just wants to hold him and give him loves.

Saturday morning we went to the baptsm and then had a very YUMMY breakfast afterwards at the park.

After everyone was done eating the kids started having races. Then they decided to include the adults. It was so much fun. We have some runners in this family!!!!
It started to rain so we went back to Jason and Katies and spent the afternoon relaxing and playing some Guitar Hero. Actually, we played a lot of it!!!!

We also enjoyed walks, bike rides, yummy food and GREAT company. I am already ready to go back for another vacation!!! :)

MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND.....

We had a GREAT Memorial Day weekend. Jason and Katie and the kids came and stayed with us. It was soooo fun to have them. We mostly just hung around the house the first couple of days. Bryan's family came up for a BBQ Saturday night and then Sunday after church we had dinner and then got together with a couple of his sisters and their families for games and treats!! Sunday we drove to Blackfoot to the cemetary and then went down to the river bottoms and roasted hot dogs. The kids LOVED it. It was such a nice day, well......for the most part. It did turn off crummy later in the after noon.

That night I got together with a couple of my good friends from high school and went to dinner. Kristen was here visiting so she and I and Steph went out for a little GNO. We went to dinner at Cafe Rio and laughed and visited til they kicked us out because they were closing. We then went over to Perkins for a little ice cream. I thought Perkins was an all nighter but NOPE, we got kicked out of there too because they were closing. So we went back to Steph's house for a while and visited and played on the computer. We had A LOT of fun and A LOT of laughs!!!!!

2009 DANCE RECITAL

Madi has finished dance. Again this post is a little late.

Every year at the beginning of the recital the dance teacher introduces the girls. This year they did a modeling show while they were introduced. It was pretty cute.

The girls had a GREAT year. We finished with a BANG!! I don't know why, but the girls ALWAYS seem to dance better at the recital. Maybe it's because they are not competing against anyone and they can relax and just dance.

I have been asked to post a video of Madi dancing. My camera shut off before she finished so you don't get the whole thing. This is her solo that she did this year.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MADI :)

K, so I am WWWWAAAAYYYY behind. But for good reason.......and I will think of that reason later!! :) My Madi turned 10 on the 12th of May.

She had a good birthday. We went to Dairy Queen and had dinner and blizzards and then she opened her presents. She is growing up soooo fast. We love you Madi!
