Sharee, Preston and Carson

In July we made a trip to Idaho to be with family when Bill's niece Kristin returned from her mission. The week before we left Bill and Carson had been at trek. Nate and Monique had their new little guy Dax (aka baby corn) while they were at trek. We offered to take Hylan with us to Idaho and they let us. He did great on the trip and didn't miss is mom and dad at all until it was bedtime. Then he wanted to be home. It was fun to see Kristin and all of the Peters gang. We went for our 'family' walks along the canal. Hylan love the goats across the road.

Cross Country Fall 2011

New Region Champs

Champs!

Best Buds!

I don't know what I enjoy most about my boys running cross country. I love that their cousins and good friends run and what a GREAT group of kids they participate with. I love that they are developing a life long healthy habit. I love that we are out enjoying the beautiful fall weather we have where we live!
This year Uintah sponsored a regional meet for the kids in Northeastern Utah. Both the Roosevelt girls and boys were the region champions! They all did a GREAT job all season long.
On of my favorite parts of this season was running into my friend Lynaun at some of the meets. Her oldest boy and Carson are just a few months apart and are involved in similar sports.

UEA Weekend

Over UEA weekend this year we went to St. George. We traveled down Wednesday after school and enjoyed the warm weather. On Thursday we rode to Grafton and enjoyed walking through that old pioneer ghost town. I really got a kick out of Mallory and how interested she was in all that we saw there. She kept wanted to see more. Bill's favorite part was the old cemetery. It was well worth the drive.
Friday we met up with Jon and Heather and their family. We spent the afternoon at Snow Canyon and the kids really liked playing in the sand.
That night we went to Tuachan to watch The Little Mermaid.
Saturday morning we got up and traveled home to spend the weekend with my parents who were home for a few days for a training in SLC.

Catching Up!

It has been a while! I am going to be better about posting things to our family blog. I am going to post several things to catch up on a few things we have been up to. I keep thinking that things will slow down after this or that is over, but it just doesn't seem to happen that way for us. My new motto is going to be, "Busy is GOOD!" As a family we are all super busy, so we must all be good.

Preston's Birthday

Preston's Birthday is in April.... a little late getting things posted I know. He is such a happy kid and easy to buy for. Here are a few pictures from that day! The Peter's gave him a new alarm clock, Carson and Mally game him a soccer ball and mom and dad gave him some new board boots. Thanks for being such a great kid Preston!

EGGS!
