Soccer!

Spring Soccer 2010!
Brooklyn has become quite the little soccer player. She is getting really good and loves to play...except when it's snowing, raining, hailing, or the wind is blowing with hurricane force during the game. I guess that's to be expected during Spring soccer and as we all know, nothing stops the game and I mean NOTHING!!!













Brooklyn...lucky number 3 again! Way to go Brookie!!!

Summertime picnic

Taysa and Cloe decided to have a picnic while Brooklyn was gone camping with Matt.

Blue Angels airshow

The Blue Angels came to Idaho Falls and put on one heck of an airshow. We weren't going to go but at the last minute we decided we would. Matt's friend, Jordan, lives right across the street from the runway so we went to his house to watch. I am so glad we went, the girls loooooved it. When I was a kid my dad took me and my brother, Tracy, to see the Blue Angels in Sacramento. I remember it was the coolest thing I had ever seen as a kid, it was still cool now.


Take off...here we go!












Landing

The next day they did another show in IF and we realized we could see it from our backyard. The girls laid on the tramp and watched some of it, the only thing that was missing was the sound...that was Taysa's favorite part.

Dance recital 2010!

May 1, 2010
Dance recital! The theme this year was, SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE. The recital always turns out wonderful and my girls have such a great time performing. I tried to upload a few of their dance videos, but they wouldn't work so these pictures will have to do. This year we were lucky enough to have aunt Marci and her two kids, Carson and Morgan, come to the recital. Thanks for coming and supporting the girls guys! We love you. Taysa and Brooklyn did such a great job and I love to watch them dance because I can see how much they truly LOVE it!

Roasting marshmallows!

One of our favorite summer past times...roasting marshmallows! There is nothing more relaxing than sitting by the fire on a beautiful summer evening roasting marshmallows, watching the girls ride the 4 wheeler, jumping on the tramp, and actually seeing everyone get along.

4th of July!

We always have a family get together on the 4th for food, fun and fireworks. This year we met at Michelle's house. The kids, and the biggest kids of all the dad's, had fun riding the 4 wheelers and motorcycles around until it was time to eat. We had yummy food and then lots of good fireworks. It is always so much fun to get together and the kids love being with their cousins.
