park....

Four 5 year olds, 2 moms, picnic, and park.
Does it get any funner?????
ummmmmmm.........
YES!!!!!!!
But we still had some food, fun and laughs.
Especially when Tara decided to run around & play on the playground like the 5 year olds and fell.
I wish I had gotten the camera out a little quicker.
No worries, she is O-K!!!!
But.....
I did get some fun pictures of the kids playing tag and being crazy.





 p.s. this bridge is how Tara fell.
{It is more wiggly than she thought.}
p.s.s. I almost peed laughing.

Saturdays..............

Game Day!!!
Screaming fans, Double headers, touch downs, Popsicles,
sunflower seeds, tears, excitement, encouragement. 
These are just some of the things that describe our Saturdays.




we are back to 2 sports right now. 
Briar is still playing football, they have 1 more game to win, then its time for playoffs. So proud of the team and coaches.
Briar had some nice blocks and hits and ran the ball in for 1 of the extra points.
Score was 41-0 :)
{#39} 



Tay is still playing softball, she is now playing for Storm.
{a team out of Ogden}
She is really enjoying the team and coaches.
They played their first double header this weekend in Brigham.
They lost both games but Tay did very well.
In the first game she played center field and catch.
{first time for both}
She hit both times and got on base, with some nice steals the second time.
She got the only RBI bringing in Kayla.
they are friendlies so they don't keep score but I think it was like 8-1? :(
her second game she played center again. She got some nice hits and steals again and was our only scorer.
6-1? :(
hopefully things will pick up for us, we have 1 girl just getting back from knee surgery, and another that was in a car accident on Friday, and not feeling real well.



I love our CrAzY busy lives.
I am so proud of my kids and their desire to work hard and go after their dreams.

Jr. Peach Queen Pageant

This year Cloe was old enough to enter the Jr. Peach Queen Pageant.
She has been anxiously awaiting this for over a year now.
She would also LoVe to do other pageants.
{we'll see about that !?!}
Cloe has been practicing and thinking about her dress, walk, wave, smile, talent {not needed}, and everything else imaginable pretty much non stop.
So when the time came she was ready to go.
Tay and I took her to the rehearsal, and she had so much fun.
The next day was a hard wait.
I had Aaron stop on the way home for some flowers to surprise her with,
so he had to keep them hidden  .
{she had mentioned how neat it would be if she got flowers, or even roses thrown at her on stage}
She is so funny and dramatic.
She thinks about every little detail and likes it to be executed.
I have no idea who she gets that from.?. ;)
<3
I have to say she looked so BEAUTIFUL!!!!! 
And even though she wasn't drawn out for a crown, she will always be our little princess.
We love you Izzy girl!
XOXO

Working his MOJO!!!!

Cloe had an AMAZING cheering section there for her.
Mom & Dad, Tay & Bug, Grandma Alice, Grandma Debbie, Grandma & Grandpa Bunderson & Aunt Katie.

Cloe also got to ride the train in the parades this year.
Briar had a football game on Saturday, so Cloe only rode in the Jr. parade on Friday night.
But she had lots of fun and waved and smiled the whole time.

would result in this battle wound.

&
Who knew a restroom built in the trees could be so nifty.





OR.....

that I would fall hard 2 times.

"No!!!! not the Knife!!"
