Fathers day, ER visits and Friends

We had an eventful week. Fathers day was wonderful, we just hung out as a family. We went up to the waterfalls and had a great time playing in the water. The falls are beautiful and it was fun hiking on the mountains surrounding that area. (pic. is Mary Ann and Mikah) Wednesday night we had Linsies birthday party. We had yummy cake and ice cream. When we got home that night we looked at Sid and his little eyes were a mess. You could not see the color of his eyes. we thought that they had sunken. We got him loaded up and off to the ER we went. Come to find out he had a sever allergic reaction to something. To what we do not know. He know is living on Zertec, benedryl, steriods and an antibiotic. ( I do not know how he is functioning)

Friday, we went to the museum. We need to complete 6 museums before the end of July. So on Friday we hit 2. Thankfully we went to the Werner Wildlife one. I finally got a picture of the white deer that lived on the hill across the street that I kept wanting a picture of. So here she is. We loved watching her from our front window, and was sad we never got a picture of her. The other museum we went to was the Veterans Memorial Museum. The boys loved that. They loved seeing the uniforms and all of the cool things there. Thanks Jeannette and kids and Stacy and kids for joining us. Always lots of fun when we are all together.

So I got pictures of Robbie smiling and thought you all would enjoy. This week one of my friends is going to take our pictures and I am so very excited about it. Can't wait.....
This last picture is of our family at the falls. Like I said it is very pretty. Don't you all want to come and visit now????

Saturday we had some friends come up from Cheyenne and they spent the day with us. It is always fun to have them come and visit. Thanks MaryAnn and David for coming to visit for the Day. Hope you all had a great time.

We hope that this finds all of you well. Hope you have a great week. Love ya.

A week of new things.....

On Saturday June 20, 2008, I had the privilage to drive to Billings Montana and escort a friend through. I love being an escort cause you get to go through the same process as if you were going through your first time. A wonderful refresher. Thank you Kelsey for letting me be your escort, I had a wonderful day. Isn't the Temple beautiful. Thank you Jeannette for watching Sid all day for us. You are a wonderful friend.

This is our new suburban. Isn't it pretty???? It drives so wonderful. It has been in 3 different states in less than a week. NICE!!!!!

Look at the cutest DVD/Video shelf ever. It is against a yellow wall and the shelfs are red, yellow, blue and green. Spanking cute. Yes, I did color not just white. Is everyone impressed???

This is the wonderful swingset we built. Isn't it huge? It took me, Jeannette and sometimes Kennen weeks to build. But, it was so worth it. All 5 kids love it. (Robbie, Sid, Hayley, Linsie, and Jack)

Okay, so here is the scoop. We have been busy busy busy. We have been to Denver as a family. The boys and I have been doing summer things when it isn't raining. Saturday, Kennen and Robbie went to cub scout day camp and I to the Temple with Kelsey and Luke. Jeannette took Sid for the day and I so owe her big time. Sid was so excited to spend the day with her, Ron and the kids. I so hope he was good for her. (3 different states in less than a week, I think I am becoming the wondering gypsie)

Today is fathers day, I would like to wish all of the men out there Happy Fathers Day. Some may not be fathers but if you have touched anyones lives it is also your day. Thank you to all of the men in our lives. Thank you for helping, teaching, being a friend, loving and everything else to our family. I have had lots of men in my life that have helped me out a lot. Yes, they are not all family but they have made me whom I am today. Thank you to my dad, my grandpa's, Shad and most important of all My Sweet Eternal Companion and the bestest daddy to our boys ever. Happy Fathers Day also to Pop, Chris, Marty and Gerald. Hope you all have a wonderful day today. We love each and everyone of you.

New car, new swingset, new bookshelf

So these are the things that have kept us busy. Sorry I am so late. Crazy times at our house.

So today is Thursday 4 days late is better than nothing at all. Last week Kennen and I finished the swingset and made a shelf down in the basement turned out stinking cute. Glad the swingset is done that was huge. (Pop I know you read this so it is done so you can come and visit us now).

On Monday we drove to Denver and bought us a new car. We bought us a 2002 Suburban. I love it.

Today is Thursday and I had to take Sid to the doctors. He has a bad throat and has had an allergic reaction to some bug bites poor little boy I can't get the fever lower than 101.5. So the Doctor put him on antibiotics (not anything with Amaxacillion in it) so hence it was pricey.

Saturday, I get to go to Billings Montana and be an escort for one of my friends through the Temple. I am very excited. Been stressful figuring out what to do with Sid. Thank you Jeannette for being an amazing friend and taking him for me.
On that day as well Kennen and Robbie will be at Cub Scout Day camp. They should have fun.

That is our news thus far. I will post pics later. Love you all.
