Graduation!


Well, I am finally caught up on my blog, we have had a lot of things going on lately. One major accomplishment is that Shawn graduated with his Masters in Education with a degree in Educational psychology. It has been a long road with many sacrifices, and I am so proud of all his hard work!


Shawn's parents came down from Cardston. It was so good to see them, and we are grateful for their support.

This is Shawn's professor Dr. Zehng. Shawn can't say enough about him, and he is grateful he had such an amazing professor who helped him so much.

Preschool Graduation


Ryker had his preschool grad this week. He LOVED preschool and will miss it a lot. His teacher was so amazing, and she helped him so much. I am so proud of my Ryker and how much he loves to learn.

Getting his diploma...

Ryker and the graduating preschool class of 2010!

I Blinked....


.......and my Ryker turned 5 years old. I still don't know how this happened, and I am still trying to come to grips with my boy going to kindergarten this fall. Ryker is so grown up, and such a great kid. I just can't help but love him to pieces......and I can't believe he is 5.



Lehi City Expo


We Went to an expo where the boys could see all the people that help our city of Lehi run. They had the Police men (and police dogs too), firetrucks, the city power department. Ryker and Bridger were in heaven.

Here they are sitting in the firetruck. And yes, Bridger had an ultimate meltdown and tantrum when we had to get out of the firetruck. They loved it.


Ryker's favorite part was when he got to ride in one of the power boxes in the power department trucks.
He couldn't believe how high he was. He kept saying "mom, I was higher than the trees!"

Wonders.....

Feeding Horses...

I am so grateful for my two boys who help me see the wonderment and amazement of everyday life.

Always an Adventure with Bridger!


My little Bridger.......so full of life, such a love of adventure, a risk taker, a tender heart, and very very lovable. He has recently developed a love of climbing....any and everything he can climb. He will move the kitchen chairs to where he wants to go, and starts his climb, often resulting in many anxiety attacks for his mother. This past weekend he climbed up on a kitchen chair, and then onto the table. I walked into the room just in time to see him fall off the table. The result was a broken arm and a very guilt ridden mom. Poor little guy.
His cousins brought him this cute bear with a bandaged arm too, he LOVES it!


His first broken bone at 1 year of age...lets just say I am a little concerned about what our future holds:)

Think Pink!


This past little while I have been working on making some crib bedding for the baby, I never realized how much fun pink is! Thanks to the help from my amazing mom and sister, we finished this past week.
I still need to add some ties to the bumper pad...

This bow quilt will hopefully be a keepsake for our little girl. The bows were actually made by my grandma who passed away in December for a quilt she was going to make. I was lucky enough to be able to use them and make this quilt top with them. I think of my grandma whenever I look at this quilt.
As you can tell, I am very excited for the arrival of this little girl! Only 9 more weeks to go!
