soaring eagle

Bubba was awarded the Soaring Eagle award along with several other kids. He though he was so super cool. The medal has his name on it. He is so proud just like his Daddy to have it hanging on his wall in his room just like his Dad has all of his medals hanging in his room. He still hasn't stopped grinning.

He makes us so proud!!

Principals Pride

My Mom, Ty and I went and had lunch with Madison for her Principal's Pride. She was awarded the certificate for Outstanding student and for receiving her cursive license. She is one smart cookie :) She makes me so proud.

A taste of Zion

So...ah..ya, Went away with some friends a couple of weekends back and these are the only four pictures that were taken. I am hoping that my friends have some good ones??

We went to Zion's National Park, My first time and besides not feeling well. I had a great time and it was beautiful and was perfect weather!!!
We went on a hike up to a waterfall, had lunch, desert, shopping. The weekend was fun!

Maybe I will post more pics after I steal them!!!

Nana

I took this picture for my Mom's Mother's Day gift...she knew all along what she was getting, she picked it out. A frame that had Nana on it. It turned out really cute. She sure does love her Grand kids and wishes she had more.

Mother's Day

I am so in love....

I was spoiled as usual for Mothers' day. Breakfast in bed, a new counter top mixer, funny cards from the kids, hand crafted cards from school, ROSES!! I am so loved and so blessed. I often feel undeserving of these bountiful blessings of mine but I am truly grateful for them and try not to take them for granted. I love how the kids get so giddy when they come get me. They almost can't control themselves, that of course is the best part.

I am so happy to call them mine and for them to call me Mommy, no greater blessing then that. I am thankful to the Lord for entrusting me with their lives and I hope that I never let them down because after all they did choose me.

I hope every one had a great Mother's day...or an every day IS Mother's day!!

BrOOke's Birthday!

It's always good to get together with girlfriends and EAT!! We usually spend the evening at applebees chatting and giving each other a hard time, well I should say they give me a hard time. But hey I don't mind them laughing at my expense!!
This time it was for one of my really good friends Brooke. We try and get together around each other's birthdays. I love going out with these gals!! Can't wait til' we can go again!!

( we missed you Janica and Kim )
