What a great babysitter. Carly and Burks having a nap together. 16 months and 16 years...now we know that pack 'n plays can hold teenagers too!

The twins having a little snack...ooops...Burks wants me to know we forgot to bless the food.

I need one of these swings for our swing set.

JUNE 2010

HONEYMOON/10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY
We celebrated our 10 year anniversary by cruising with The Honeymooners (Nate & Erica). We had so much fun...it was amazing!
Ready to relax and catch some rays...actually the rays caught us...talk about one bad sunburn.



and.....I'm a dork!


That was amazing...getting the works while listening to the sound of the waves crashing. Some light music in the background, a warm breeze and the smell of the sea!





Learning the Thriller Dance! Jeff won.


Ready for another feast!


Our little babies. Sea turtles are so cute!


Stingrays are not so cute!






BOATING WITH FRIENDS

Cute Kellan

Best buds!








CITY CREEK PEDAL FEST

Jeff and I competed in our first Mt. Bike race. We both competed in the sport division which was a total of 21 miles. I think it is safe to say this was the hardest thing I have ever done. I ended up taking 4th in the women's race and 2nd in my age group. SOOO hard but sooo much fun!
BEAR LAKE

Burks loves sand

Ammon loves to drive the wave runner. Becky and Kurt are brave passengers.


Jeff jumping the wave runner....not really but it kinda looks that way.


Kurt switching life jackets while on the go.


Grandma and Grandpa taking care of all the little kids so the big kids could enjoy the the water. The kids loved hanging out with Grandma and Grandpa.

lil cousins loving the water!


Beautiful Burks staying warm in the boat!

Jeff having fun and enjoying the great water we had all day.

KIDS PHOTO SHOOT

This was one crazy photo shoot. I am pretty sure our photographer was ready to kick us out after three minutes. I know I was ready to scream after two minutes because my kids were not cooperating. Burklee would not leave any hair accessories on, she was fussy and out of control. Kellan was fussy and his pants were way to big and they kept falling off. Poor Ammon got neglected and we later realized he had food on his face and a booger in his nose. To top it off the twins got in a huge fight and then it went downhill from there. With all the chaos we were lucky to get a few good shots.




Burklee pulls this face all the time and I LOVE IT!





THIS SUMS IT UP

Look at the mess this dang cell phone caused....

Burklee tries to take the phone away....

Kellan gets super ticked and goes in for the head-butt....


he knocks her to the ground....


fight ends...nobody is happy!


could it get any worse....

I think this sums it up!

BIG 5

Little baby Ammon 5 years ago.
FRIEND PARTY
So I tried to be fancy this year and make a cool cake and I realized two things:
#1 I DO NOT have enough patience to make a fun cake
#2 I do not have skills in the cake department

(Kari...I don't know how you do it)


Birthday Boy trying to bust open the fire truck.


The fire department showed up and surprised the kids.
They all go to go on a little ride in the truck. They all had such a great time. I even got to go on a ride because the girls wouldn't go without me. It was pretty cool!


Group Shot







FAMILY PARTY


Lovin his new bike
FYI...the football jersey he is wearing was mine back in the day (oh how I loved Dan Marino).

(this cake looked much better about 10 minutes prior to this photo)
His favorite gift....Mario P.J.'s
