 |
| Fishing ( Kurtis was sitting in a red ant hill but i guess he didn't smell too appetizing because he didn't get bit) |
 |
| Kurtis, Kimber and Kyle in the boat |
 |
| The lake was clear full! |
 |
| Kyle went to UVU on his birthday for a wood working competition and had a great time. So we finally got to celebrate last Saturday. 18 years old, Holy Cow! |
 |
| Kimber and Grayson special ordered these beautiful Roses for me and his mom for Mother's Day before he went in the MTC. |
 |
| Kristin snuck over and planted all the pots on my front porch for me. They look so good! |
 |
| Kasey and Shawn bought me President Monsen new book. I can't wait to find a quiet moment and get lost in it. |
 |
| Can I just say that I LOVE my boys! On the way to school Wednesday morning they were listening to the radio. The radio station having a call in contest for two free tickets to Lonestar. They won! Then when they got home they said they wanted Erick and I to have them. So we went to the Tuacahn Amphitheatre Saturday night and had a blast! Not to mention. Kyle earned his fifth palm and Kurtis his second palm tonight. Thanks guys. Your the best! |
 |
| We went to Yuba for our Easter weekend. They have improved the campground so much it could become our second favorite place to camp. |
 |
| You have to relax while you have a chance. Kyle just keep telling yourself 4 more weeks. |
 |
| Kurtis relaxes in his own way |
 |
| The sequoia store at the park put on an Easter Egg Hunt for everyone at the Park. It was a lot of fun. |
 |
 |
| Jacy is so happy to get out of their car. |
 |
| Erick and Kyle caught 4 carp on request from the neighbor with a bear tag. Apparently it makes great bait. I guess I am not meant to have a vacation. It seems the last day I always manage to get sick. I am not allowed to relax too much , I just can't handle it. We did have a nice weekend, even with the rain. It's so nice to just hang with everyone. I do have the best kids, As I lay in bed, Kristin made a jello salad, Kasey cooked the fish and Kimber made biscuits for our traditional Easter dinner. They cleaned up too. Family is the best! |

| Two weeks ago Kyle was able to get his Patriarchal Blessing. It was amazing! When we saw the Patriarch last Sunday he and his wife said in the 38 years he has been giving blessings that he has never given a blessing like it and that it was an honor to be a part of it. Last Sunday in a special 4 ward meeting, Erick was sustained as the 2nd councilor in the Cove ward. Last Night Erick's parents and Matt with his family came to ordain Erick to High Priest and set him apart. Needless to say we have been on a spiritual high and very humbled. Erick has had to jump right in with both feet. They realigned the 4 ward boundaries affecting all the ward organizations. |
 |
| We were able to go through a session this morning to support Grayson while he took out his endowments. Erick, Kasey, Shawn and I attended while Kimber watched Jacy. We went to lunch and of course we hit Costco for a Sand and Water Table (Daycare write off). Tonight we went to the reception for Erick's friends Son. There was 27 weddings this morning, the temple was very busy. It sure felt nice to get in a calm place and reflect on all my blessings. We are really proud of Grayson. He is going to be an awesome missionary! |
