Happy Birthday Handsome!!!!

Actually, all of you are pretty darn handsome, but today goes to the tall, dark one in the red shirt!!!!




The one in the "M" superhero cape! Thanks for always making us laugh!!! I hope your day has been absolutely wonderful. Love you!!!

Making the most of baseball season!

Carley took my camera for a while, and when I took it back to take pictures of Taylor during her softball game, there were about 5 videos on my camera of Carley's feet. She said, "Mom, I had to do something fun to pass the time!" She does have pretty cute feet by the way!

Here's Taylor on second base! Then on third, she did score a run for the team!

My Knight in "Shining" Armor!!!

Dallin and I had the amazing opportunity to attend cub scout day camp! As you can see, we had a great time pretending to be the knights of the roundtable!

Check out my little musicians!

Taylor is on her 4th year of the clarinet, and Dallin just started on the saxophone. They sound pretty good together doing their scales.

SOLD!!!!!

Pretty soon, we hope to use this very front door to welcome all of you into "our" new home!!! The home inspection is next Wednesday, so if all goes well, we will close on July 15th! All we can say is "YIPPPPPPEEEEEEEEE!!!"

We made an offer! Now the waiting begins!

We should know by week's end whether this could be ours!!!!


The only thing that Tim doesn't like about this house is how close the neighbors are. You can see their house peeking through the trees as you look from the deck. Hopefully they are good neighbors!

I think we found it!!!!!!!

This is the view from the back deck, which houses a pool and hot tub, all of you are welcome to come visit!

Down the winding drive-way, on 6 beautiful acres, won't this porch look just fabulous with a swing for mom and me!

The country charm I have been looking for!

It even has a dishwasher!!!!

So after months of looking (it feels like years!!!) and after going through hundreds of houses (that's what it feels like), I think we have finally found the ONE!

Look what we found in our backyard yesterday!

Tim spotted this Painted Turtle, Dallin and Carley headed over for a closer inspection.

What a Party it was!

"Mom, I need an awesome birthday party for my 13th birthday!" So we tried to make it awesome!

Here is the before picture! The object of the game: to eat as many M&M's as they could, without using their hands, in a plate full of whipped cream!

The after picture!!! GROSS!!! But not one M&M was left.

Spring Musicale

She and Ginny, her best friend, played a duet.


Check out the cute little girls in the front row in white dresses!!!

Another Athlete in the Family!

I love his pitcher's stance! He'll be ready for the Major League in a few years!

"Lights, Camera, Action!!!"

These 3 looked pretty great twirling their batons on stage Saturday night! They did a flawless routine in front of hundreds of people!!!
