Its going to work, Lets Go

We were able to get to St. George this Memorial Day weekend.  We had good visits.  Since I broke my camera battery cover last vacation I only had my phone for photo's so I didn't get as many.  

We were able to visit and surprise Grandma and Grandpa Keith.  We took his truck and installed a dishwasher into our house there.  We got the work out of the way so we were able to rest and play the rest of the time.  

Porter and Grandpa saved the world from space invaders.  I am so glad I have tough brave men in my life.  

I love this picture. It always warms my heart.

 We did a lot of sitting and talking.  It was so nice.  Love our family and friends

May the Forth be With You - Scout Day Camp

The ladies who put this on did an amazing job.  They had so many fun activities to do.  I was able to help half of the day.  Kyron was able to come with Porter and they were in the Storm Trooper group.  I wansn't in their group so I didn't get any pictures of them put half of these boys are in my ward so that is who I took pictures of.  

 This was the light saber craft.  Kyle and Gabe

Slip-n-Slide

            Kristy and the Kids came to visit for the weekend. We went and got scraps from Ben's work and made a slip-n-slide.  Porter had a hurt knee and so he couldn't do any crazy tricks but they had fun anyway.  Next time we need to make the slide longer.  They are getting to big and just shoot right off the end and into the grass.  

The Mesa dam.

Durring park day with the ward Mason, Porter, Gabe, Kyle and Tanner found a stream coming from the spring on the Mesa and decided to make a couple of dams.  This is pretty impressive if you ask me.  They were over there for only a couple of hours.  They didn't have shovels either just sticks and rocks.  

Kade is 14.   He wanted a computer for his birthday so Ben pulled together parts and pieces from all the computers we have around and made him a fast gaming computer.  He was a Happy kid.

Easter 2013

We got to St. George early and everyone was still in school so we went to the skate park by our old house.  There wasn't to many people there so Kade and Porter, who don't like it crowded while scootering, were able to enjoy themselves.  This week while we were there the kids got to visit with some of their friends.  

 We had a B-B-Q and Easter Egg hunt at Mathis'.  It is so nice to visit with family.  

We went to Grandma Fox's house for easter.  It's tradition to play games or go on a hike then color Easter eggs.  This years game was Minute to Win It.  

 Grandma and Grandpa doing a cup stack.  Make a pyramid the take it down.  first one to do it wins.

 Ryan and Jarron.  We played more games than that I just didn't get them.  

 Oh and of course our favorite, Annie-I-Over (no clue if that is how its spelled but thats what we say.)

 Here they come.  Run!!!!!

Fun with Cousins

Look who came down to visit us, Mathis'  We went to the Skate park.  It was fun to see them bond and try new things that were scary to them and to see their sense of relief and of accomplishment as they made it safely down the ramps.

Good big brother.

Kings of the Hill or in this case hut.

    When kristy and the kids came down we went to the Whitney Ranch park.  They have these little huts.  The kids like to play tag on and around.

 This time they captured Darcy.

 Kristy wanted to take a picture of the kids hanging upside down and she was demonstrating I had to have the camera ready in case she got stuck or something.  I should of had it on camera because it wasn't as easy as she thought it would be.  

Watching planes with Jackson's

The Jackson's came down to spend the night and play.  We visited the Parking lot where we like to watch the planes. They fly right over our heads.  Poor Darcy was sick with a low fever and was freezing with the slight breeze that was blowing.  Fun Memories.We also went to the skate park while they were down.
