They woke up early to a yummy breakfast and off to get ready and of course picture time. I can't believe they are both in Jr. High, bittersweet for me and Mike. I am so glad that get to have a year together at school. They came home with smile and excited to go tomorrow. Hopefully that last the whole year.

I love watching my older boys play football. They are super excited and can't wait. I can't believe that this time of the year is here already. Where did our summer go? We have had a fun and very eventful summer, I hate to see it go, but am super excited to watch Austen and Tanner play football and for Jake to tag along like he is part of the team.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-1WopKGXbfP8/Tj8Pib3blWI/AAAAAAAABVU/o-2s4ZGdwwo/s1600/football%2B2010%2Bextreme%2Bmake%2Bover%2B049.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5638242342761370978" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-1WopKGXbfP8/Tj8Pib3blWI/AAAAAAAABVU/o-2s4ZGdwwo/s320/football%2B2010%2Bextreme%2Bmake%2Bover%2B049.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mlYXR2DjEM4/Tj8PiD8XxoI/AAAAAAAABVM/StPYfItp3Ko/s1600/football%2B2010%2Bextreme%2Bmake%2Bover%2B020.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5638242336339641986" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mlYXR2DjEM4/Tj8PiD8XxoI/AAAAAAAABVM/StPYfItp3Ko/s320/football%2B2010%2Bextreme%2Bmake%2Bover%2B020.jpg" /></a>Mandiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14251607869112751518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7336680991737427235.post-58536442544583195532011-05-04T14:48:00.003-06:002011-05-04T15:01:33.230-06:00Picture that will make you LaUgH!!!!!So Day #7 is a picture that will make you laugh. I chose this picture because every time I look at it or even think of this day I laugh. This is my nephew in this picture he is 6 and he in now going to turn 18 so after 12 years we are still laughing. Justin got a really bad sunburn when he was ice fishing with his dad the dad before Valentine's Day. When they got home from fishing he looked normal, but that next morning when he woke up and went and into his parents room to say Happy Valentine's Day this is what his face looked like. I remember my sister bringing him to my parents house and all of didn't know if we should cry or laugh. He had just little slits for eyes and when he smiled he looked like a different kid. This kid has had many moments that we can looked back on and laugh, but this one has to be one of those pictures that not makes me laugh, but we all get a kick out of it.<br /><br /><div align="center">Normal<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-F4fjjXhaysI/TcG-OGOY34I/AAAAAAAABVA/gyaVPgwjdmM/s1600/bhy.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 251px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 236px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602968560824016770" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-F4fjjXhaysI/TcG-OGOY34I/AAAAAAAABVA/gyaVPgwjdmM/s320/bhy.jpg" /></div><br /><p align="center"></a>Sunburned<br /></p><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YFfnRetGUxU/TcG-N5g7nxI/AAAAAAAABU4/BEETd8021Yk/s1600/jkl.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 234px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602968557412130578" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YFfnRetGUxU/TcG-N5g7nxI/AAAAAAAABU4/BEETd8021Yk/s320/jkl.jpg" /></a>Mandiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14251607869112751518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7336680991737427235.post-38269832508695516862011-05-03T21:52:00.002-06:002011-05-03T22:00:29.947-06:00Who would I like to change places with for a day?Day #6! Changing place with someone. I thought about this and many people went through my head most of them rich and famous, but then I thought how great it would be to change places with my 3 boys. Austen one who has a care free life and is just loving life. He enjoys every minute of his day, until he has to go to bed, but he seriously has not a worry or care in the world right now. Tanner he is just always wanting to make people laugh. He loves to chill on the couch and watch his favorite show and once again not a worry or care in the world. Jake he is just a busy body. Loving being with his brothers, and just enjoying be outside and playing until he crashes. I sit and look at these boys and wonder how it would be just to know everything is taken care of and there aren't any worries. I love these 3 boys more then anything and to spend a day in their shoes would be a day well spent.<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-X6yIA8e4SYM/TcDPPJTmQpI/AAAAAAAABUw/v_fUSMHpSlk/s1600/Disneyland2010%2B003.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602705795552002706" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-X6yIA8e4SYM/TcDPPJTmQpI/AAAAAAAABUw/v_fUSMHpSlk/s320/Disneyland2010%2B003.jpg" /></a>Mandiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14251607869112751518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7336680991737427235.post-35494965805585469942011-05-02T18:15:00.004-06:002011-05-02T18:26:42.778-06:00Memories...........is the challenge for Day #5.

This was kinda hard for me because I have many people in my life that I have been super close to. My dad, mom, sisters and brother. We are a close family and they have always been there for me and my family, but the one person I feel that I have grown closet too over the years is this sweet guy!<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601115668441259298" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sMSwY436xXU/TbspBkNQ3SI/AAAAAAAABTg/L3lRDLtboEM/s320/Disneyland2010%2B299.jpg" />I know love the picture right, but he is always pulling some face in every picture we have together so this is what you get. I love this guy more then life it's self. I have been so blessed to have such a wonderful man in my life. He brings me to much joy and happiness and over the years that we have been married he has been my rock, my shoulder to cry on, my person to vent on, puts up with my whining and complaining, encourages me and the boys to always follow our dreams and goals, a WONDERFUL father to his boys, and most of all just being married to me. He is a man of great patients and provides well for his family. Just writing this makes me tear up because I feel that I have truly been blessed to have such a wonder person in my life.

My family had the big family dinner the Sunday I was in Vegas so I didn't get any pictures of that but the boys had Mike said it was yummy and of course "GREEN". So on Thursday we had our dinner and made everything green. The boys requested breakfast for dinner so that is what they got. We had green pancakes, eggs, milk, juice, and they loved all of it. Austen struggled eating the green eggs, but got over it once he knew they tasted the same. We had a great dinner other then one little problem. Tanner burnt the bacon. He loves to help and decided to put the bacon in the microwave for 4 mins on a paper plate and not watch it. Not long after that I see smoke pouring out of the microwave and a horrible smell. He had to give me a hard time since not to long ago I put easy mac in the microwave without the water. I guess you can say he takes after his mom. So other then the stinky smell we had a great St. Patty's day and no one got pinch cuz we were all wearing green! <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ohAlPETjS1M/TZo7-hjyrkI/AAAAAAAABSI/E2yHuw5ouY4/s1600/2011%2B038.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5591847832680312386" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ohAlPETjS1M/TZo7-hjyrkI/AAAAAAAABSI/E2yHuw5ouY4/s320/2011%2B038.jpg" /></a> <a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-hTo-_KVgmnk/TZo7-MTNuQI/AAAAAAAABSA/dXKFsQFuKEs/s1600/2011%2B037.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5591847826973636866" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-hTo-_KVgmnk/TZo7-MTNuQI/AAAAAAAABSA/dXKFsQFuKEs/s320/2011%2B037.jpg" /></a> <br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-OR44go7n1C0/TZo79rXD7EI/AAAAAAAABR4/P2JrcQNJV0I/s1600/2011%2B043.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5591847818131401794" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-OR44go7n1C0/TZo79rXD7EI/AAAAAAAABR4/P2JrcQNJV0I/s320/2011%2B043.jpg" /></a></div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BlhLH_E_QVc/TZo8_wWCGXI/AAAAAAAABSg/Ml6ouAVMDV0/s1600/2011%2B039.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5591848953340631410" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BlhLH_E_QVc/TZo8_wWCGXI/AAAAAAAABSg/Ml6ouAVMDV0/s320/2011%2B039.jpg" /></a> <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_sDrko26iiA/TZo8_QqByoI/AAAAAAAABSY/A90F1LG1MpQ/s1600/2011%2B036.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5591848944834562690" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_sDrko26iiA/TZo8_QqByoI/AAAAAAAABSY/A90F1LG1MpQ/s320/2011%2B036.jpg" /></a> <br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sDdmaYW9Gdk/TZo8_BM_1cI/AAAAAAAABSQ/RVm1tdUfOFQ/s1600/2011%2B035.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5591848940686267842" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sDdmaYW9Gdk/TZo8_BM_1cI/AAAAAAAABSQ/RVm1tdUfOFQ/s320/2011%2B035.jpg" /></a></div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UZe3qxfSw5Q/TZo-QjChbmI/AAAAAAAABTA/NNDKy0--rBQ/s1600/2011%2B042.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5591850341338541666" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UZe3qxfSw5Q/TZo-QjChbmI/AAAAAAAABTA/NNDKy0--rBQ/s320/2011%2B042.jpg" /></a> <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-N3ORcwHC_Mg/TZo-QWvBE6I/AAAAAAAABS4/OrD8TjkY0fc/s1600/2011%2B043.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5591850338035504034" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-N3ORcwHC_Mg/TZo-QWvBE6I/AAAAAAAABS4/OrD8TjkY0fc/s320/2011%2B043.jpg" /></a> <br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YmbvtxvE1mo/TZo-P3EZkxI/AAAAAAAABSw/QAB8j9Yo4c4/s1600/2011%2B041.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5591850329535255314" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YmbvtxvE1mo/TZo-P3EZkxI/AAAAAAAABSw/QAB8j9Yo4c4/s320/2011%2B041.jpg" /></a> <br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CHmFj-YzH3c/TZo-PWmFrmI/AAAAAAAABSo/VFyRSZ0jNmE/s1600/2011%2B040.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5591850320818187874" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CHmFj-YzH3c/TZo-PWmFrmI/AAAAAAAABSo/VFyRSZ0jNmE/s320/2011%2B040.jpg" /></a> <br /><div></div></div></div>Mandiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14251607869112751518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7336680991737427235.post-8791598900926680202011-02-18T16:30:00.005-07:002011-02-18T16:52:16.198-07:00Basketball, Basketball and more Basketball...<div align="center">Yes this is what we have been doing for the last several months now.

I am truly a blessed mom and wife to have such a wonderful husband who I adore and love even more everyday. Three handsome sons that make me smile everyday and just knowing I was picked to take care of them and love them with all my heart. Words can not express how much I love them all. For Valentine's Day we did are usually heart shaped pancakes for breakfast, red juice and a kiss on the cheek from mom before they left for school. Then why they were at school I went to work turning our table into a candle light dinner. The boys look forward to it ever year and Jake getting a little older absolutely loved it. We had a great little dinner and told everyone how much we love each and other and of course we ended the night with a KISS goodnight from mom.<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3499s88gfLw/TVsLwrlQY0I/AAAAAAAABP4/D06PgmzsZhU/s1600/Night%2Bsking%2Band%2Bnew%2Byears%2Beve%2B2010%2B050.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574061894761734978" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3499s88gfLw/TVsLwrlQY0I/AAAAAAAABP4/D06PgmzsZhU/s320/Night%2Bsking%2Band%2Bnew%2Byears%2Beve%2B2010%2B050.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-akZ9WoMujG8/TVsMK5TNZqI/AAAAAAAABQA/FtqP52W-EIs/s1600/Night%2Bsking%2Band%2Bnew%2Byears%2Beve%2B2010%2B051.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574062345120736930" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-akZ9WoMujG8/TVsMK5TNZqI/AAAAAAAABQA/FtqP52W-EIs/s320/Night%2Bsking%2Band%2Bnew%2Byears%2Beve%2B2010%2B051.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ioKr7JJ7_yM/TVsM2SvRtQI/AAAAAAAABQQ/P1_WgfgW9Tg/s1600/Night%2Bsking%2Band%2Bnew%2Byears%2Beve%2B2010%2B052.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574063090683720962" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ioKr7JJ7_yM/TVsM2SvRtQI/AAAAAAAABQQ/P1_WgfgW9Tg/s320/Night%2Bsking%2Band%2Bnew%2Byears%2Beve%2B2010%2B052.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BAtCsfV1uzc/TVsM15cpDOI/AAAAAAAABQI/spSV4MOYlOc/s1600/Night%2Bsking%2Band%2Bnew%2Byears%2Beve%2B2010%2B049.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574063083894672610" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BAtCsfV1uzc/TVsM15cpDOI/AAAAAAAABQI/spSV4MOYlOc/s320/Night%2Bsking%2Band%2Bnew%2Byears%2Beve%2B2010%2B049.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7MRw7mNYzSg/TVsNlOdbm0I/AAAAAAAABQg/X6Z5PE7ctVE/s1600/Night%2Bsking%2Band%2Bnew%2Byears%2Beve%2B2010%2B048.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574063896988982082" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7MRw7mNYzSg/TVsNlOdbm0I/AAAAAAAABQg/X6Z5PE7ctVE/s320/Night%2Bsking%2Band%2Bnew%2Byears%2Beve%2B2010%2B048.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-74VJkoSbcRg/TVsNkvuUlkI/AAAAAAAABQY/yuXjxfpVGd0/s1600/Night%2Bsking%2Band%2Bnew%2Byears%2Beve%2B2010%2B054.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574063888738326082" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-74VJkoSbcRg/TVsNkvuUlkI/AAAAAAAABQY/yuXjxfpVGd0/s320/Night%2Bsking%2Band%2Bnew%2Byears%2Beve%2B2010%2B054.jpg" /></a>Mandiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14251607869112751518noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7336680991737427235.post-90532876131900512802010-11-12T18:29:00.003-07:002010-11-12T18:41:00.692-07:00Extreme Makeover 2010Mathew's Plumbing got he opportunity to do some plumbing on the Extreme Makeover Home in Pocatello. They worked endless hours, but loved every minute of they felt that the family was a very deserving family. Mike invited me and the boys to come down a couple times and see the house be done. It was amazing seeing all of the people that were donating their time and doing something so nice for another family. When they were all done on the last night we got invited to go down to a V.I.P party and have dinner and they had a little dance. It was fun we got some picture we the STARS of the show and the dinner was yummy.

He has wanted to go to school like the brothers and has been waiting for this day to come. He was up and ready to go way before it was time. I was so proud of him and he was such a big boy walked right into school met the teacher(Grandma Carter) and sat in his desk. We have been so lucky to have grandma be a Pre-School teacher my kids have loved going to grandma school and we couldn't ask for a better teacher to get them already for kindergarten. Thanks mom! I just can't believe how big he is getting and he brings our family so much joy and happiness.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TIFXyCNzaXI/AAAAAAAABMQ/AOuyYcqSSGo/s1600/Back+to+School+2010+011.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5512783935978039666" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TIFXyCNzaXI/AAAAAAAABMQ/AOuyYcqSSGo/s320/Back+to+School+2010+011.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TIFXxlk9dnI/AAAAAAAABMI/eP4K6FUhItU/s1600/Back+to+School+2010+012.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5512783928290539122" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TIFXxlk9dnI/AAAAAAAABMI/eP4K6FUhItU/s320/Back+to+School+2010+012.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TIFXxKpaquI/AAAAAAAABMA/vvqe7967wBk/s1600/Back+to+School+2010+013.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5512783921061472994" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TIFXxKpaquI/AAAAAAAABMA/vvqe7967wBk/s320/Back+to+School+2010+013.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TIFXwYkMiNI/AAAAAAAABL4/1jo7GWnyidQ/s1600/Back+to+School+2010+009.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5512783907617802450" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TIFXwYkMiNI/AAAAAAAABL4/1jo7GWnyidQ/s320/Back+to+School+2010+009.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TIFXvxF1HUI/AAAAAAAABLw/aN6blfnTaM0/s1600/Back+to+School+2010+010.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5512783897021455682" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TIFXvxF1HUI/AAAAAAAABLw/aN6blfnTaM0/s320/Back+to+School+2010+010.jpg" /></a> </div></div></div><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TIFYbuk9plI/AAAAAAAABMg/4WSkPkNefzc/s1600/Back+to+School+2010+005.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5512784652260976210" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TIFYbuk9plI/AAAAAAAABMg/4WSkPkNefzc/s320/Back+to+School+2010+005.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TIFYbBtWFqI/AAAAAAAABMY/PEFkWjCmU8A/s1600/Back+to+School+2010+002.jpg"></a>Mandiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14251607869112751518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7336680991737427235.post-68059042521952329582010-08-30T09:01:00.005-06:002010-08-30T09:26:16.923-06:001st day of School<div align="center">I can't believe that summer is over and the boys are back to school. We had a great summer filled with lots of fun things to do. Know it is time to get back to the grind of schedules, homework and the dreaded bedtimes. The boys were really excited to start school. Tanner was super excited thought it was pretty cool to be the in the oldest in the school 6th grade. I can remember feeling pretty special being the oldest kids in the school. He got a great teacher so he should have a great year! Austen headed off to the MIDDLE school. I just can't believe he is old enough to be in the middle school. Call me crazy, but he should still be my little boy who loves to play in the dirt and with his cars, but instead his interests have changed to sport, sports, sports, and more sports. They both looked very handsome heading off to school. I am super proud of both of them and wish them the best school year!<br /></div><div align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;"></span> </div><div align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;">Breakfast before we get ready for the 1st day of school</span></div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/THvMxDGcDGI/AAAAAAAABLo/QJnr1laF8jI/s1600/Back+to+School+2010+011.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

We packed up all of our camping stuff and off we went Friday afternoon. Once we got there and got camp all set up the kids were off playing. They had tons of things for the kids to do and believe me they did it all from swimming, ride bikes that you can rent there, miniature golfing, and anything else they could come up with. My parents had a great idea to watch a movie under the stars one night so the boys put up a sheet on the side of the camper and we watch How to Train a Dragon it was a lot of fun and the kids thought it was great. We had a great time relaxing, laughing, playing game and just doing nothing. Thanks mom and dad for a great weekend and for making such fun memories.<br /><div align="center">Hannah and Uncle B</div><div align="center"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/THBH-ZT4sbI/AAAAAAAABI4/rJ_CF4X_CaI/s1600/football+2010+extreme+make+over+013.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

Saying this I have always wrote down little things that they say and Jake is going through a little stage of saying the cutest things. The other day we went to my sister's ward and he saw a picture of Joseph Smith. It was so cute he knew who he was and that he went and prayed in the forest and that Heavenly Father and Jesus came to him. Well this last Sunday on our way home from camping I was asking him these following questions our conversation went like this:<br /><br />Me: Jake what did Joseph Smith do?<br /><br />Jake: Prayed in the forest (action folding his arms)<br /><br />Me: Who came to Joseph Smith?<br /><br />Jake: I don't know mom( long pause)<br /><br />Me: What angels appeared to Joseph Smith?<br /><br />Jake: The Blue Angels<br /><br />I looked at Mike and we just busted up laughing, he was so funny and was as serious has could be. Later after we stopped laughing he says, Mom I kidding it was Heavenly Father and Jesus. This just melts my heart. When I don't think he is listening cause he is going up and down and all around while we are reading the scriptures he is and he is taking it all in.Mandiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14251607869112751518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7336680991737427235.post-55775287474772042322010-07-14T20:42:00.005-06:002010-07-14T21:02:12.850-06:00Soak City!!!!!!!!!!!!After 3 days at Disneyland and California Adventure we headed over to Knoxberry Farm and Soak City. We had a lot of fun. We went to the water park and I felt like a horrible mom. Tanner got burned really bad on his shoulders the day we were at the beach. I was really good about putting sunscreen on everyone before we let, but he had his shirt on and I missed his shoulders. He tried really hard to be tough and enjoy the water park, but with his shoulders burnt he enjoyed soaking in the wave pool and relaxing with me in the sun. The kids loved the water park they played for hours. Jake and Carter loved the kids area and the bigger boys headed over to the crazy slides. It was a nice and relaxing day.<br /><p align="center">My Tan Man<br /></p><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD54KlYbRfI/AAAAAAAABGQ/VGR8wcR07gg/s1600/Disneyland2010+140.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493960718667171314" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD54KlYbRfI/AAAAAAAABGQ/VGR8wcR07gg/s320/Disneyland2010+140.jpg" /></a> Austen and Jake in the lazy river<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD54KGrH1CI/AAAAAAAABGI/luOuiaWF_Cs/s1600/Disneyland2010+137.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493960710424089634" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD54KGrH1CI/AAAAAAAABGI/luOuiaWF_Cs/s320/Disneyland2010+137.jpg" /></a><br /><div>Jakie <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD54JxetGzI/AAAAAAAABGA/gwlIxH5wXWA/s1600/Disneyland2010+143.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493960704734862130" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD54JxetGzI/AAAAAAAABGA/gwlIxH5wXWA/s320/Disneyland2010+143.jpg" /></a>Oaks and some crazy hair!<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD54Lt3E5BI/AAAAAAAABGg/wwX6jkHW-3M/s1600/Disneyland2010+142.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493960738123080722" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD54Lt3E5BI/AAAAAAAABGg/wwX6jkHW-3M/s320/Disneyland2010+142.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD54LDS8_QI/AAAAAAAABGY/mIq00Cy6uis/s1600/Disneyland2010+138.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493960726697278722" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD54LDS8_QI/AAAAAAAABGY/mIq00Cy6uis/s320/Disneyland2010+138.jpg" /></a>Hannah and Carson<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD55G0F79RI/AAAAAAAABHA/WKRpLgeAdVI/s1600/Disneyland2010+136.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493961753408304402" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD55G0F79RI/AAAAAAAABHA/WKRpLgeAdVI/s320/Disneyland2010+136.jpg" /></a>Tanner's sunburn</div></div><br /></div><div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD55GX4YrdI/AAAAAAAABG4/Zq9Ytk1qowk/s1600/Disneyland2010+298.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493961745835273682" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD55GX4YrdI/AAAAAAAABG4/Zq9Ytk1qowk/s320/Disneyland2010+298.jpg" /></a> The kids area<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD55F6m5W-I/AAAAAAAABGw/b7lSBh8mS9I/s1600/Disneyland2010+146.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493961737977289698" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD55F6m5W-I/AAAAAAAABGw/b7lSBh8mS9I/s320/Disneyland2010+146.jpg" /></a>Jake and Carter<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD55FYttocI/AAAAAAAABGo/wmE1ueiUzF8/s1600/Disneyland2010+144.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493961728879075778" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TD55FYttocI/AAAAAAAABGo/wmE1ueiUzF8/s320/Disneyland2010+144.jpg" /></a><br /><br /></div></div>Mandiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14251607869112751518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7336680991737427235.post-76633118900873769882010-07-02T17:09:00.010-06:002010-07-11T22:43:31.119-06:00California Adventure!The day after the beach we headed to California Adventure theme park. We had a lot of fun here and the kids loved it. Jake loved Lighting McQueen, the boys loved California Soaring, California Screamer and the Parade was so cute. One of the rides that we loved was The Bugs Life. They have a little show and it is 3D and it is so darn cute we had to watch it 3 or 4 time. It was nice and cool and was nice to just sit and relax for a few minutes. We saw Handy Manny which was the only character Jake wanted to see other then Buzz and Woody. I convinced my boys to go on the Tower of Terror that is a fun ride. We had the boys keep running back and forth to get fast pass. They went and went just like at Disneyland I don't think they stopped at all. This was another fun filled day and there is still more to come...................................<br /><div align="center"></div><div align="center">The boys by Lighting McQueen and Mater<br /></div><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TC50gpl8JfI/AAAAAAAABDQ/Bgwvl6rEOqY/s1600/Disneyland2010+099.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

We went to Newport Beach and had a nice relaxing day. The kids played in the sand my sisters, mom and me tried to get some sun. The big boys played in the ocean and after everyone had enough sand from one end to the other we headed to walk the Pier and they had a little Farmer's Market type thing going on that we walk around and got some yummy fresh fruit.<br /></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center">All the boys working on a sand castle</div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

We had a great time and made a lot of fun memories. We were on the go the whole time and loved every minute of it. We had great weather and the boys had the time of their life. The first day we headed to Disneyland up early and ready to go. We got all the pictures with the characters and then headed to the rides. The boys did great and loved running from ride to ride with their cousins. We spent the whole day there sat and watched the parade and got back to the hotel around 11:00 just in time to catch a little <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">zzzzzzzz's</span> before we headed out the next day. <div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TClzgK6I8CI/AAAAAAAAA-Y/VMmD2CR-LHM/s1600/Disneyland2010+005.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

I absolutely love this lady. She is such a great example to me and someone I love spending time with. I me be bias but I do have the best grandma in the world. My grandma has been a great teacher, friend and role model for me. Some of my favorite memories of her are going to her house and feeling welcome, loved and being able to dance and play for hours in their beautiful yard. We have made several girl weekends to <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">SLC</span> and those have been the best trips ever being able to spend time with her, my sisters and mom and laughing for hours. My grandma brings life to the parties that we have. I always love knowing that she is going to be there and we can chit chat and laugh over anything really. She make killer cucumbers in vinegar, and she one of the best cooks I know along with my mother and sister. I just wanted to put together a little post about my grandma. I look at the pictures I have and she makes me smile just looking at them knowing she is my grandma and how special I am to have such a wonderful person in my life. I love you more then anything grandma!<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TA7yRTi6ERI/AAAAAAAAA94/Jx6SeLCOYk4/s1600/Spring+beginning+026.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5480584175674855698" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TA7yRTi6ERI/AAAAAAAAA94/Jx6SeLCOYk4/s320/Spring+beginning+026.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TA7yShpYy8I/AAAAAAAAA-I/RNU6uYwxXJo/s1600/DSC01543.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5480584196640000962" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TA7yShpYy8I/AAAAAAAAA-I/RNU6uYwxXJo/s320/DSC01543.JPG" /></a><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TA7yR2RMTqI/AAAAAAAAA-A/5DzU7uXil68/s1600/IMG_5547.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5480584184995794594" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_A9qt1qwTYik/TA7yR2RMTqI/AAAAAAAAA-A/5DzU7uXil68/s320/IMG_5547.JPG" /></a> 10 things I love about my Grandma</div><div align="center">1.
