Happy Birthday Boy!!

Caleb is now in the double digits. He is 10!! It is so hard to believe that he is getting so old. He will be starting 5th grade this year. He is also going to play football and just ended wrestling. Both sports he is very good at. He is a tiny guy but he can hold his own. He is the big joker of the house. He loves to tease and that reminds me of my Grandpa Elison. He loves to play with friends and loves the Xbox. He is a great son and we love him so much.

Money is always something he loves having.

John also has this hat. Caleb would always steal it so John got him his own.




The video game he wanted !!

Happy Birthday Baby Girl

I can't believe that my baby is 4. Oh, how fast time goes. This little lady is so fun. We love her so much. She loves her sister so much and tries to do all that Jenna does. She is learning her letters, loves to color, ride bikes, and play with friends. She was so excited for her birthday. She was counting down the days. We decorated her door for when she woke up.



She started twirling baton this year so we got her her very own baton. She loved it.



She always loves clothes.


She really wanted a barbie horse.
Ready to go.



I love this little girl!!

Great Skate

We went rollerskating with a group of friends at Great Skate. They had a family discount night so we thought it would be perfect to go since it is the summer and we could be out later. We had a ton of fun. Briauna loved it. There was a lot of people. Lance loved going fast
All the kids had fun. Caleb is getting really good.

Jenna did great.

Garrett even had fun. He couple skated with two friends.












July 4th Weekend Camping Part 2

A great thing about camping is having fun with friends. We cooked smores, ate, and played a lot.












One of the reasons we love Mormon Lake is because of the town parade. It is so cute and total Americana. We love it. The kids had a balst running and playing waiting for it to start.





This is the gang waiting for the fun to start.








The people in the parade threw candy and toys to the kids. They loved it.



The town




The family behind the lodge.

Some of the kids that camped with us.

After we played for a bit it started to pour. We all huddled in front of the general store hoping it would die down enough to get to the car.

It rained on and off the rest of the day. It was very cold.









John and John decided to make more shelter so we could enjoy the res of the day and hopefully stay dry.

Mormon Lake/ Ashurst Lake: July 4th Weekend


A couple of years ago we went camping over the 4th with our friends. We ahppened upon Mormon Lake. It was such a fun little town and the July 4th activities are a blast. We had told some of our football friends and they thought it would be great to do this year. So our family and 4 others all went camping. We left Thursday and came home Monday morning.


Lance found the trees and loved climbing them.




Jenna and Shayla being silly. Shayla is a cheerleader and her brother Braeden was on Lance's team.



Hanging out in the Shaw tent.




Briauna was a complete mess everyday. Thank goodness a portable camp shower was brought and shared for all.




We played lots of games and just hung out.




Ladder ball was a favorite. We even had a tournament with brackets. It lasted for hours.







The camp ground was great. There was bathrooms and water. There was also a lake that we visited a couple of time. The kids loved it.
