Happy Birthday, Amy!!!!

Amy always posts a happy Birthday to everyone, so i thought it only right to post one for her. She is 31 as of yesterday. Happy Birthday. I left her a killer song on her answering machine yesterday, but then her phone cut me off. I hope you got most of it. Aims, I love you so much and miss you so much. I can't wait to see you in a couple of weeks in Rexburg.

Before and After

This cracked me up. Caroline is our crazy little Tom Boy. I was getting her ready for church one day and I just couldn't resist taking a before and after picture of her.

A little wave and wink for the finished product. What a Cutie!!

The kid's new swingset

For the kid's birthdays, we got them a swingset. We found it on KSL for $150.00. What a deal. They love it and it keeps them entertained all day long. Here are a few pics of Bridger and Caroline enjoying thier swingset. Kaitlyn was at school so I am going to have to take some pics of her later.

What a handsome boy.
Caroline Hanging out.

Oh so happy. Bridger and his friend Britton.

Leave it to Caroline to do the most daring thing on the swing set.
And after a long day of so much fun. She rocked her self to sleep in her favorite swing.

Happy Birthday, Caroline---- June 1, 2008

Caroline all ready for church.
Caroline and her Princess Castle Cake.

MMMM. That frosting is oh so good.

Happy Birthday, Bridger-- May 28, 2008

This was my try on a Lightning McQueen cake for Bridger. I am not an artist, so it took a long night and a lot of retries. All in all, it turned out looking not to bad.


Bridger hanging out on his new swingset.

Bridger, Ty, and Bryton, posing for the camera.

Bridger, Clayton, and Zac hanging out. Bridger looks like he is about to fall. Good thing, I took that picture when I did. Otherwise I wouldn't have anyone to take it of. All of Bridger's buddies. Throwing water ballons at me. Bridger asked for a water party. So we stood on the top railing and tried to throw ballons into the pool at the bottom. Then they went down and shot Water Rockets at each other. It was so funny. I went down to gather them up to have cake and ice cream and break a pinata' and about 5 of them were down there waiting for me and when I reached the bottom of the steps they soaked me. I laughed so hard.
Bridger and his cake. Five years old. Where does the time go?

Caroline and her bike ramp.

Ryan borrowed my grandpa's tiller to do some work in the yard. He made a ramp to get it out of the truck. Caroline, our little dare devil, thought this would be a perfect bike ramp. So she started going up.

At this point, I was thinking, "oh my goodness, she really is going to go down."
I wonder if she was as scared as I was.

Well, she had so much fun, she did it about a million times that afternoon.
Occasionally, she would go off sideways........
Daddy would come to her rescue and give her a little hug........
And then off she would go again.

Kaitlyn's Last Days of being a Kindergartener.

This is Kaitlyn with her friend Austin. She is boy crazy already. I have a feeling Ryan and I are going to have are hands full when she is a teenager. Thank goodness she is such a good girl.

During the last week of school, Shelly Elementary has a dance festival. This is Kaitlyn and one of her best friends, Ali, sitting on the grass waiting for their dance to start.

Now that school is out, the kids love to stay up late and watch movies and have sleep overs with thier Dad on the sunroom floor. Ryan is such a sport. The next day his back is killing him, but he still is willing to go along with the kids, because he knows how much they love it.

Our Preschool Graduate-May 22, 2008

Bridger is offically a 2-year preschool graduate. He looks so cute in his cap and gown.
Way to go Bridger. Mom and Dad are so proud of you.
Oh, and so are your silly sisters.

Bridger and his buddies. Clayton, Zac, and Britton. Bridger and his teachers. (Ms. Carrie and Ms. Geanna). We couldn't ask for better teachers for our little ones. They are so great.

Shaylee Gear- Born May 15, 2008
