FAMILY HOME EVENING

It was 'Ma and Pa's" turn to do the monthly FHE and David chose the activity of bike riding. Since most of us enjoy it! There was only one exemption from the group. Nicole had dance and couldn't make it. We missed her, and I know she missed us. ??
We started at the mouth of the canyon and rode to Canyon Glen for a bar - b - q. It was a little chilly and not enough seats for little Emily, so Jared did the greatest dad job and kept Emily and drove the food. Andrea also helped out with transportation and drove the transport vehicle for the bikes. She didn't ride, she is in the 'family way' and was not feeling so good.


Andrea has not been feeling well the last few days. She doesn't like missing anything so she did come to enjoy the food (NOT) and company. Paul took the kids in the carrier.

Kevin and Leslie worked up an appetite for hot dogs. They are my two who follow in the tastes and enjoy a good dog every now and then.

Here's Jayce (what is she doing) and Kylee. It started getting dark pretty quickly so we had to get on the move. Kylee took her applesauce and Jayce has her Oreo.
Jaxon was getting tired, and just say "smile for the camera" and Kaja can put out the biggest grin. (I think maybe GP should get a carrier for GM.)

And little Em is just happy sitting and having all of us around.

Jared got stuck at the grill fixing the hot dogs. David watches.
Here are the kids waiting on their 'dogs'.
No picture of Tyler and Christine! They did do the ride with us, but turned around and went home to their studies. They are the two responsible members of the fam. Oh, Kevin too, he brought his school book thinking he might read while the food was cooking! Didn't happen, but he wanted to.

We had a real good time. We should have done it more. I

A GOOD WEEKEND

We had a very good weekend. We went fishing at Strawberry, we caught 2 fish, but had a good time. Sunday we had all the kids over, and grandma and grandpa, and Matt and Kerry and Makayla and Greg. Oh, and conference was so good. I love hearing from our Leaders.

Here's dear ol' David enjoying his new little boat. He looks pretty serious about this fishing stuff.

Christine enjoyed it more than she thought she would. We sat up in the front, covered ourselves with blankets and caught up on all the gossip from the TV Guide. I finally finished Harry Potter #3.

Tyler taking a snooze. He caught the one fish we got to keep.

Kevin's enjoying the relaxation of watching and waiting for the fish to take the hook. Kevin did catch the first fish of the day, but the wrong size, color, and all that nonsense, so we had to let it go.

Sunday all the kids came over. What a crazy house we had. Here the girls are taking a trip on GM's scooter. Kaja is saying "WHEEEE". (The big kids are in the house playing "WII". Hahahaha, aren't I funny!)

Jaxon didn't like the very back, but he liked to ride. Jaycelyn likes to drive.

They flew to Grandma Judy's house and they flew from airport to airport. That's what they told us. This is the only way the kids will ride the scooter. The minute the engine comes on they are in the house bawling.

Happy Birthday Andrea

Here's Andrea with Grandma Maureen. She's 10 months.

Now with Grandpa Paul. she's probably 3 or 4.

People think we kid about her lack of hair until she was 3 years old. Here she is about 1 and a half.

Andrea's about 3 here at her Uncle Rob's wedding.

Look how great her hair is here.

Even when her hair came in we were always asked if she were a girl or boy. We had this t shirt made up so they would stop asking. Why didn't we do it in PINK.

Our little dancer!


Andrea liked cowboys and their stuff.

I thought I'd put up some pictures of Andrea on her birthday.

I am just going through pictures again and here is one of Andrea washing her hair at Lake Powell. Scrub A Dub Dub. Look at that belly.

Look at the tan line on Leslie's back. It almost looks like a swimsuit. (What size of panties did I buy that little girl!)
