One of the few activities we got to do with Grandpa Pigeon before he moved

This is how our day began :)


This is the yummy cheesecake I made but forgot to take a picture until it was half gone...oh well you get the idea - festive yet so delicious

Daniels Program

The scorpion in the garden goes walk walk walk.....

Daniel did an awesome job and kept the audience on their toes

Great Job Daniel and congratulations for graduating from preschool

Helldorado Days Parade

Contacts, contacts, contacts....My dad, who raises & races homing pigeons with the Silver State Racing Pigeon Club, has a friend who is president of the Las Vegas Rail Road Society...anyways the pigeon club was invited to participate as a float in the Helldorado Days Parade with the Las Vegas Rail Road Society. Long story short Daniel, Aubree, & myself rode in the back of the truck pulling the pigeon trailer...we had a blast. Part of the awesome float done by Bruno Platzer & crew for the Las Vegas Rail Road Society.

Waiting for the parade to start :)

The Pigeon Trailer

Daniel & Aubree were fascinated by the policmen on horses

Mothers Day Weekend

The pictures are backwards, but you get the point anyways.

The Thursday before mothers day my AC went out so I flew my ever so handsome always on call handy husband home for a hot date :)

Saturday night we went to a Las Vegas 51's game and ended up leaving in the fifth inning because it was moving sooooo slowly! Sunday we spent the day as a family @ Mt. Charelston enjoying the cooler weather and the beautiful creations of the Lord.

Thanks Lillie for the pics...
more to come; on a night I am not soooooooo tired!

We also were at the park in Boulder City on Friday so here are some pics of Aubree's first trip down the slide

Here we sit with sick kiddos who are resting @ the moment so everyone else will benefit as I will post a post while eating some toast :)
On Friday Daniels school class did a field trip to a farm in Boulder City so here are some pics we hope you enjoy!

Happy St. Patricks Day

Here we are the middle of March and life just gets more exciting everyday!
First things first....Happy Birthday Dave on the 22nd, since I know it will be a while before I post again.

Recently we went with Daniel to the Gilcrease Bird Sanctuary for a school field trip. There we got to hold, pet, & feed goats in a little petting farm. We saw white & green ostrich eggs as well as a lot of peacocks. It was a fun little field trip as they have been reading the Three Billy Goats Gruff, watching their caterpillars turn into butterflies, and learning about insects.
Aubree is so adorable as she is growing like a weed. She absolutely loves to interact with Daniel and of course has to be the center of attention. She says da-da, babbles, and shrieks blood curdling screams constantly. Who would have thought having a girl in the house could be so much fun :)
Dave recently moved to Spanish Fork which is a whole lot closer to work. He enjoys (if that's the right word) his job, but looks forward to every visit of the family whether in Vegas or Utah.
Judee keeps plugging along, longing for the day we can move the rest of the family to Utah. Life is full of lots of lemons and we are making our lemonade.
lol

Skip christmas, skip new years, maybe if you are lucky I will get a real post in by Valentines. Dilema is that my camera is broken...so it might just be words for a while.
UPDATE:
Cut my hair to a spiky length...not my favorite
Daniel is the best big brother anyone could ever dream of
Aubree cut her front two bottom teeth on the same day :)

lol to all who love and support us on our journey through life!

Update

Our blog site is currently under construction...for those of you who have kids you will understand that it is taking me awhile to get the fonts & sizing right due to making my kids my #1 priority.
I will post more later about our Christmas trip to Utah.
