MOVING FROM WELLSVILLE!

April 28, 2016

Oh man this weekend was hard for me! I went to help Ashley PACK and CLEAN. Ashley and Lytton are moving out of the house I love so much! I was so sad that this day finally came. I know it's exciting that Lytton is graduating and they are moving on, but I have LOVED them living in this particular house in Wellsville.

I will miss the beautiful view from my upstairs bedroom window when I would sleep over. I loved the millions of stars I would look at each night. I will miss the beautiful views no matter what big window you looked out of. I will miss the feeling of being alone in the country sitting out on the back porch. I will miss the beautiful view driving through the canyon especially in the Fall. I will miss the big hallways where Remington and I ran around chasing each other. I will miss the big loft where all the toys, the ping pong table, foos ball table and tv room were played in for hours and hours. Those are just a few of the things I will miss. I know I have a lot to look forward to in Idaho, but today I just wanted to be melancholy for this house, this wonderful, wonderful house!

I've never been in a house that I have loved more! Goodbye Wellsville House! Thanks for the great memories!

 Grandma Shirley came up to help me take care of the kids. She can't get enough of holding Paisley while I play hard with Remington. She took them on a walk in the stroller while Lytton and his friends loaded the horse trailer with their large furniture.

 Me and my sweet Ashley! I'm going to miss visiting her here in Wellsville!

 I had Ashley take a break and sit with Grandma one last time on the front porch!

                                  I love these guys! Wish Lytton was in this pic!

UTAH SYMPHONY...LET'S DANCE!

April 23, 2016

Today was a big day! I had spent all day with Debbie and Cyndi Chamberlain at the Genealogy Fair at Woods Cross High. It was so great! I learned a ton and got so excited to start doing my Genealogy and made me feel so good that I creatw my Family Yearbooks each year and that one day they are going to make future generations thankful that I did it!

After taking those classes, I headed to Mom's house to meet Diane, Morgan and Reed so we could go to the UTAH SYMPHONY, LET'S DANCE program. My Dad and Mona and told me about it and Dad said he thought we would really enjoy it. So we bought tickets and had great seats! We sat on the 7th row and it was so AWESOME! Dad and Mona sat a few rows behind us. They had Professional Dancers and The DANCING was incredible, and the music was FANTASTIC!  The UTAH SYMPHONY played MUSIC from all the ages of dance ranging from Big Band with dances from THE SWING, and the CHARLESTON (Which was one of my favorites. Man! Could they DANCE!), They had a professional TAP DANCER, they had a contestant from American Idol sing some songs. They had songs where they danced THE TANGO, on up to Michael Jackson and it was just a FANTASTIC SHOW! I would see it again, for sure!

 Me and my Mommy! We had a blast taking selfies before it started. Unfortunately, not one turned out great!

ROASTING MARSHMALLOWS

April 22, 2016

I know it is only April but the weather was fantastic today. I tell you I really have SPRING FEVER! Mikell had spent all day in Logan playing at the park while watching Remington. When they got home Zach mowed the lawn and that smell of fresh cut grass was AWESOME! I am really looking forward to SUMMER and playing outside and fun family moments like tonight. After the grass was mowed and we were playing with the kids outside, Boston said, "This would be a perfect night for a FIRE and MARSHMALLOWS!" He was right! Zach grabbed some wood and although it was getting dark quickly, we built that FIRE and ROASTED MARSHMALLOWS! Oh, they tasted so good and the smell of that FIRE got me looking forward to more nights like these this summer making OOEY, GOOEY MARSHMALLOWS. My favorite is the talk around the FIRE! I just love it and I love these great FAMILY MEMORIES!

            Boston kept throwing in little twigs. What boy doesn't love doing that?

                                                              My little Waylon!

                                                    Zach is such a great Daddy!

                                                               Love this fun family!

                                                I Love these unexpected memories!

 This is blurry of Kell but I love it of the boys just being mesmerized by the fire.

 It was so nice to just sit out here and look at the fire and have great conversation.

 This was taken in the dark obviously. I don't know why my flash would work some times and not other times! Oh well! These two are such a great couple! Love them!

                                                   GOOEY GOODNESS RIGHT HERE!

                                               Love this face and loved this night!

LOGAN PARKS

April 22, 2016

Mikell was such a sweetheart and drove to Logan to help Ashley by taking Remington for the day so Ashley could pack. Ashley is moving to Idaho at the end of the month. Mikell took all of the boys to the PARK to play. She then took them to another one that the boys loved! I'm so happy she took pics for me since I had to work. I love when these three BOYS get together to PLAY!  Remington always asks to play with Boston and Waylon and he loves them so much. I wish they were moving closer to us so they could play together often. I love these little DUDES so much!

                                                   Lovin' these little guys!

                                           Waylon looks so happy riding this pony!

 Remington is kind of hard to take places cuz he likes to run, and he runs fast! It was nice for Kell when he would stay on a toy. He liked Bulgy the Whale.

 Little Waylon loved playing on the train.

 I love this happy face on Remington. He had a ball with his cousins!

I can't believe how big Boston is getting. Big enough to help push on the swings. He is such a great little helper!

SOCCER STAR!

April 29, 2016

Watching Boston play SOCCER is so much fun for me! I'm not just bragging here, he really is so good for his age. Mikell has taught him some awesome skills!

I LOVE taking action pictures of him right as he KICKS THE BALL. He can belt it out there!

 I love taking pics of him smiling while he plays sports. Just making sure he is loving it! :)

                                                         He takes it serious too.

 He's stretching out good before he starts playing again.

 Now stretching the arms!

                                                                 Awesome foot skills!

                                                          And he made a goal!

                                                              Running fast!

                                                                  Yes! Another Goal!

                                                 Who will reach the ball first?

                                                            Throwing the ball in

I love this pic of his follow through after throwing the ball in.

Man! I love taking ACTION SHOTS of this kid!
