Kaedynn's Dance Festival for Kindergarten

Kaedynn's Kindergarten dance festival was full of people -- luckily we went early and got front row seats to see her. Riley took the day off to go with us-- I think that meant alot to Kaedynn to know he came.

Here are some photos, enjoy :)

Kaedynn's End of Year, Kindergarten Program 2011

Kaedynn had her end of year program at school. They just sang a bunch of songs. Kaedynn's class song was about teddy bears and so they all got to bring in a teddy bear to dance to their song with. Afterwards we let her pick her favorite place to eat dinner, which ended up being Texas Roadhouse. I can't believe she will be in 1st grade after summer break :(

MOAB 2011

Every mothers day we go to Moab, this year we camped at the same place as we did last year. It was so much fun! And it was 80+ degrees every day we were down there.

This year we decided to go thru Arches National Park while we were down there. It was very pretty and I wish I wasn't so burned that I could have hiked some more. The first day we got there I sat out in the sun soaking up some much needed rays, and I FRIED! My legs were swollen up and leaking water. It took them 1 week to blister and now, 3 weeks later they are now just about done peeling.


Me and Remz napping after our Arches Hike, back at camp.


This is delicate Arch. We didn't think we would make the 6 mile hike to actaully get there, so we went to the short cut way and hiked to the top to see a closer view of it. Very cool and pretty.



Remzy and Daddy. I never imagined in 5 million years that Riley would have put this on and wore it.. haha guess it just shows how much he loves his monsters :)


This was at another hike in Arches, i cant remember the name of it, but it was a short easy hike :) Here is the group, minus Quinn and Jeanine.


My cute little family at the beginning of Arches Park. So pretty.


These next 2 pictures are at the Tusher Tunnels in Moab. We went here last year and again this year. They are so cool. Defiantly a favorite down there. The kids like to hike in there and play. *Notice our name behind us, we carved ALLEN 10 in it last year, and Riley added 11 onto it this year.



2 of the 3 Loves of my life. They are so cute! I love them! And i caught them both smiling... i think this may be a first ever.


My dad, Uncle Quinn, and Remz at the top of Determination Towers. I love that my dad is so good with the kids.


Remzley playing peek-a-boo on our ranger ride. He kept doing this, so I had to get a picture. His version of saying Peek-a-boo (PEEKboo)


Remz and cousin Mati riding in the ranger together.


Kaedynn and Grandpa on the ride together. She loves riding with him, because he lets her drive. She is quite a good driver actually.


Our Trailer!! Finally one that will fit our Ranger beast in it.


Remz walking around. He is too cute, I couldn't resist getting a picture of him.



We had so much fun!! Looking forward to next years trip :)

Random Pictures

Remzley, Kaedynn and Blue dog out playing in the cold weather. We just want WARM SPRING WEATHER already!!


Remz and cousin Dalton playing in the tub together. They are only 5 months apart.


My pretty girl doing what she loves... carving sticks. She finds sticks anywhere she can and "carves" (peels) off all of the bark with a butter knife. She has quite the collection of them.

Broken Ranger

The Ranger broke down the weekend of Easter. We were loading some dirt in the back of it from the fire pit and i noticed that the back end was cracked and there were pieces everywhere. We got the parts ordered and Riley got ready to fix it and noticed there were more parts that were bent and gouched... so we ended up having to overnight more parts so we could get off to Moab the next day. Luckily everything got fixed and worked great in Moab.

Here is Remz being dad's little helper. He LOVES to play with dad's tools. He always wants to be down on the ground helping. The problem is he also gets sidetracked and hauls off with them :)

Easter Egg Hunt 2011

this year we did an Easter egg hunt at Nichelle, my sisters house since it was Syd's birthday on Easter day. The weather was a bit cool but it was a fun time and the kids loved it. This was Remzley's first Easter egg hunt. He had more fun trying to open the candy then going to find more like the other kids.


Aunt Nichy and cousin Maeson helping Remz find some eggs.



Kaedynn on her mad dash to find the most eggs. She ended up with a full bucket, so she must have succeeded.

Easter 2011

We had such a great Easter this year. The kids were happy with what the Easter Bunny brought them. What else could you ask for?




Remz was just happy that he got a whole bucket full of treats... 3 packages of skittles before breakfast :) YUM!


Kaedynn with her PEEPS. She loves these... me on the other hand HATE them. She must have got this from her daddy's family.


The kids with their Easter presents from the bunny.
