Randy's 31st

For Randy's Birthday we decided to head up to Park City and ride the alpine slide and coaster. It was an adventure for sure.

When we got there Brock was not in the best of moods and it started the thunder. We continued anyway, we weren't going to let it stop us. We were on our way up the chairlift when we felt a few drops and than......a down poor. Needless to say we got soaked because we were only half way up to the top.

When we got to the top there was a shed the workers led us to. About 20 of us waited in until the rain stopped. To keep Brock occupied we put a sled on the floor. He was in heaven. About 10 min pass and the rain stopped:) The workers told us we could head down or wait until they wipe the slide down. We decided to wait it out. Everyone else went back down. Suckers! They told us to wipe it down could take up to 45 min. It only took 10 min. We were the first ones down the slide.

Brock loooovvedd it! Randy said they did not use the breaks at all and that Brock was giggling the whole way down. I wish I could have heard him.


Next was the coaster. Randy again didn't use the breaks. I think I have two dare devils on my hands. I better get some good life insurance:) ha ha.




Brock had a blast on the helicopter. It is rewarding to see things through Brock's eyes.
All in all it was a awesome day.
Happy Birthday Rand!

Castle Valley Pageant Slideshow

Randy has been working down in Castle Dale Utah for the past 6 weeks and will continue to do so until January. He finally invited us down to see the Castle Valley Pageant. It was loads of fun and a fun filled day. We went to a museum, we saw where Randy is working, we went swimming at the coolest pool, we went to a lamb roast, and then to see the Pageant. It was an AWESOME DAY! To top it off Pres. Uchtdorf graced us with his presence. It was amazing. Check it out!

Foam Day in Lehi

Welcome to Foam Day in Lehi. Every 24th of July Lehi puts on a big celebration for the pioneers. This was our first year to attend and won't be our last. Loads of fun from boutiques, food and foam.

The foam started at 2:00 and ended at 4:00 pm. (Right during Brock's nap time) So to say the least he was not happy at all.


He did not know what to think. It was like he was in a daze. Poor little guy:(

I'm so tired.


Even Brocks cousin Jeff and Dad enjoyed it.

Happy Birthday AMERICA!

Saturday July 3rd at 6:00 am we headed to the Balloon Festival.
It was to windy for the balloons to fly. The pilots would keep trying to blow them up when a big gust of wind would come and knock the balloon to the ground. I guess one fell on a crowd of people, because the sound they made while screaming scared me, like we were under attack or something. Some people are too funny.

Brock loved when the pilot would blow the hot air in the balloon.

Our choice is Allstate.

I don't remember what we ended up doing between the Festival and the fireworks, so...

...I thought it would be yummy to eat scones while we watched the fireworks.
They were so Delicious to the taste:)

Uncle Ike showed Brock how to light the smoke bombs and snakes. This is right up Brock's ally. He was in heaven.

I remember as a child the fireworks being so much more cool. Kind of a waste of money, but worth it for Brock. It's all about the memories:)


Grandpa Hink was making Brock laugh so hard that night. I actually got a picture of it. So cute.

On Monday the 5th, Randy and I ran a 5k. I think I am addicted. I was so proud of myself and Randy. When I know our times and get some pictures of the run I will post them.
It was a AWESOME weekend!

MiSsInG bRySoN




Brock and Bryson are the best of buds. For almost 2 years now Brock and Bryson have seen each other almost every day. It has been so easy sense the Miller Family lived down stairs. We are sad, but happy for my sister Erin and her husband Mike purchased a new home in Midvale. They moved out last weekend and Brock is going through with-drawls not being able to see Bryson. Nearly every morning he wants to go see Bryson. So, I send him down stairs to the empty basement and he comes up very sad and says to me "where did Bryson go"?, "where are all Bryson's toys?" I keep reminding him that Bryson is at his new house. Even though we will see Bryson at Terrific Tuesday's and at family parties, we are sure going to miss the little guy. We will also miss Erin and Mike. Our house feels a little empty with out them. We have enjoyed the time we have had with the Miller's. We are excited for you and we hope you love your new place.

Brock's Prayer

Heavenly Father,

Nice day. Thank you for eggs. Thank you for bread. Thank you for...for...for the Dam Water. Amen.

How sweet the innocence.

The story behind the Dam Water is...When we went to Flagstaff Arizona a couple of months ago we stopped at a Dam to see the water, boats, fish and people. He put two and two together with a little help from someone (who I won't say) and has never for gotten it.
