23rd of July fishing

Well Jim has been wanting to take the girls fishing all summer. Oh wait we have gone a bunch all summer and he is the only one that catches anything. So he wanted to take the girls to where he knew for sure they would catch one on their own. We drove about 2 1/2 hours NE of Enterprise out in the middle of no where. To oh wait a tiny little moss pond. You had to be careful if we cast to far it would hit the shore on the other side. So anyways we get there and Kylee casts in, she says "Hey Mom I got a fish," I look at her line and it's not moving, so she starts realing in and all of the sudden a fish comes flying out of the water. She's yelling "DAD I have a fish, I have a Fish!" It was so funny. Then Brinkley caught one with her Barbie pole, it was the biggest fish of the day. Kylee caught 4, Brinkley caught 2, Jim and I each caught 1 all in 30 mins. Then they were done. We cooked some hot dogs, and went exploring in the go cart! It was a great day trip!

Wow I can't believe how fast July went! Well since I have not updated
anything for july it thought I would. This was the 4 th of July! We had a great
time, we always go to St. George in the Sun Bowl for fireworks. It is so hot here
they don't start until 10 PM. The girls loved the fireworks of course!
I love coming here because they always do
a really nice combination of music along
with the fireworks!
That's her excited face.... or scary!

Cousins Macie, Mandi, Rachel, and Jenny with the girls!
Fun Times!

Brinkley's Birthday #2

Well this weekend my Dad, Mom, brother Casey,
and my sister Jenny and her family came down to
celebrate Brinkley's #2 birthday! She turned 2 on Tuesday
June 9th, but because everyone came from out of town we
celebrated it on Saturday.
Before her birthday Grandma took all the kids to
the big water park in Washington so this picture is all six
kids in Jenny's suburban, We thought it was worth taking a picture!
Brinkley got a cozy coupe car... I think she liked it! Look at that cheezy face!

She had lots of help opening her presants, we had 10 cousins total
counting both sides. So it was quite the party, and she got
lots of other fun things from her cousins, and grandparents.
She even blew out her candles all by herself!
We had lots of fun. Thanks to everyone for the presants and for coming!
We had a great weekend! Happy birthday Brinkley!

Blog in style

Well I have to tell you I am so excited that I have a cute blog. I would look at everyone else blogs and think hey how did they get there's so cute! Well after a long night of a blog make over, I think it turned out pretty good. So I hope you enjoy it cause it was worth it. I haven't been in to the blog thing ever, but it is fun seeing everyone's day to day lives, and all the exciting news. So hopefully this will help keep you in touch with our lives better too. ENJOY!

I took some pictures of the girls today to put around our house and I thought they were too cute and that I would share them wtih everyone. Aren't those just two adorable little girls. We think so!

Well the last couple of weeks we have been trying to put our backyard in.
Jim has been working hard and got all the springler lines ran and done.
We only had one accident of me running it over already with the 4-wheeler and breaking one.
Sorry that makes for even more work.
We borrowed our neighbors tractor
to level out the lawn, and the girls thought that was cool!
So after we leveled it with the tractor,
we pulled a screen around behind the 4-wheeler and made it even smoother.
I thought it would be fun to take a before and after picture.
Dirt..... Grass! It's funny how grass just makes it look better.
We had a ton of grass though. 12 pallets of grass, and over 7,000 sq. feet.
So we were out there yesterday all day, but it was worth it.
Good thing we have great nephews Randy and Jason
who came and helped us
all day long!

Today was Kylee's last day
of preschool. They have been
learning about indians.
So they had and indian pow pow.
They danced around the camp fire,
and had a party of popcorn and cornbread.
Over the past couple of weeks they have
been making all of the different parts
of their indian outfits. She even has a papoose.
Brinkley and I got to go and watch
and enjoy the food.
