Three Little Piggies

This has got to be the UGLIEST house EVER!
It is located right by the Bott cabin in Star Valley, WY.
They literally used bales of hay for the insulation!
So we tell our kids that it is where the 3 little pigs live!

Take Me Out To The Ball Game

First game of the season (for us)
Always a good time

Laci and BumbleLandon, Josh, Austin, Laci, Cullen, Cady and Talon


The Jazz Bear was a special guest that night and came right up by us and got us all with silly string. Scared poor Cady to death. I think she's traumatized for life.

Sisters

We can really pack away the peanuts!

We had to leave at the 7th inning stretch
because it was getting late (school night),
but they ended up winning 13-12!

GO BEES!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

Mother's Day

Flash back 10 years . . .


It was the worst day of the year
1 year after having a miscarriage
6 months after finding out I would never bear children

Forward to the present:

4 beautiful kids later

flower bouquets charm bracelets

garden claw and knee pads
ladybug pin made by Landon
Maverik gift card
new shorts
Talking to my mom on the phone (I miss you!)
Making posters for the grandmas

NOT having to make breakfast (thanks Josh)
Visiting the cemetery for Josh's mom and g-ma
Lots of "Happy Mothers' Day" wishes
2 hour nap! (best part)
yummy dinner with Josh's family
Can't ask for a better day than that!
Oh, what a decade can do!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL OF YOU OUT THERE . . .
WHETHER YOU ARE MOTHER'S
OR JUST MOTHER'S AT HEART

RACE FOR THE CURE

The Race never seizes to amaze and humble me.
There are sooooo many people who are affected by breast cancer.
It amazes me to see the wall~to~wall
people as far as the eye can see.
What an amazing showing of support for this awful disease.
Someday there will be a cure!
Until that day, we will continue to FIGHT!
