Carson's 10th Birthday

Oh yes being born on the 4th of July definitely lends itself to the name Firecracker. I can't imagine not having Carson in our family. He's full of life and energy and makes us smile. When he looks at me with those blue eyes, they melt my heart. He loves sharing his Birthday with ALL of the family especially his cousins. He has fallen in love with Texas so he wanted to fit the part. For his birthday he wanted to look like a cowboy. He makes a pretty handsome one. Love him so much!

Family Trip to Idaho 2010

So grateful that I was able to go to Idaho for almost a month. Although it made it hard to come home knowing you won't see anyone for awhile, I think we made some great memories. These are the times that help us get through not seeing each other. My kids loved being there and enjoying there cousins and all there Aunts and Uncles and most of all Grandpa and Grandma's on both sides. It was so good to be with all of you. I will never forget going through for Troy's temple work. It was beautiful and spiritual and only we would be laughing in the temple as well!! Oh Penni!! I will never forget the look on your face when I turned around and saw how you were struggling, I am seriously laughing right now. I have the image burnt in my mind!! FYI you had to be there! Here are the memories!

Family Trip to Idaho 2010

Ok I know its been AWHILE!!! Well its time to get to my blog and let you know whats been going on in our lives this summer.
I have to go back a bit since I haven't done any posting since we've been back from Idaho. I have so many pics that I am going to put them in slides. This slide is pics on our way to Idaho. We lost some because I didn't back up my phone but the highlight are we had 2 stops on our way and those were Las Cruces New Mexico and Cortez Colorado. We loved the little town we stayed in New Mexico and have found a must have stop when we go to Idaho again. That is the best Frozen Custard ever, Caliches!! I would seriously make the drive just to have me some more. Those are some of the pics I lost but there is one of Canyon eating it in the slideshow, soooo DELICIOUS. We stopped at the Continental Divide, 4 Corners which is the only place in the U.S. that 4 states touch and Route 66.
