Junior Mustang Football!

We LOVE # 12

Cade {#12} plays Quarterback, Running Back/Wide Receiver & Right Linebacker on defense... they only have 17 kids on there team so Cade pretty much plays the entire game! He really likes football, but not practice (everyday for 2 hrs), it's a lot of hard work! He is learning a lot and having fun making new friends.

I'll have to get a picture on here with the three of us in our orange and blue!

GO MUSTANGS!

Summa Time

We had lots of fun this Summer! Cade spent all summer hanging out with his friend Cody. They went to football camp, basketball camp, golf camp even tennis camp! It was activity overload.:) He also spent at least 3 days a week at the pool... he is a tan little boy!

Here are some pics of our other summer activites
We went {boating} with Stacey and Jason... it was a blast and Cade had a ton of fun! Thanks guys:)

Irrigating our lawn is a weekly favorite. Rocky loves this too!

Baseball was so much fun to watch this year... so much in fact that I forgot to take pictures... oh well. Cade loved it too... it's his favorite sport. He is starting to get really good and the little slugger hit 3 triples this year ( I have my baseball lingo down). All three of us are excited for next year!

Bear Lake

We didn't take our yearly 24th of July vacation to bear lake this year... instead we are going to go over Labor Day weekend (in just a few days). We did manage to find time to drive up and hang out for a day tho!

Camping up @ Beaver Creek
Matt and I never made it for an overnight trip, but we did go up for the day. Cade went a few times with Grandpa and Grandma Riggs and the rest of the fam. He is learning to fly fish and really likes it... just like grandpa.:)
Rocky had fun too, but he slept for a whole day straight when we came home... he is a pampered pooch!

What's Bloomin

This is what's blooming in my yard! Along with lots of other stuff including my pumpkins, radishes, peas and cucumbers! I'm a gardner Woo Hoo!! I'll post more pics later... my camera died:(

Crazy Dog!

Rocky

This is Rocky's favorite spot in the house... the tub! He likes to get in and then have you turn the water on just a little bit. He then proceeds to bark and growl at the trickling water and turns speedy circles in our little tub... he on the other hand is not so little so this is very entertaining to watch:) After about a million circles he jumps out of the tub and in a mad dash runs through the kitchen and living room (sliding into everything) and then dives back into the tub for more. He does this until he can take no more and collapses onto the floor for a long nap. We love him, even if he is a little odd!

Simple Treasures Craft Fair

This is our booth at the Simple Treasures Craft Fair. It runs April 1st-4th @ Union Station in Ogden.

Hawaii - Part 2

We went to a Luau @ the Hyatt resort... It was fun to watch and the food was good! Our boys (even the little ones) have an obbsession with coconuts tho :)

The Aquarium!! The kids had fun here, and the shark tank was cool!

The jelly fish tank was really neat too! Sea World is way better tho.

Hawaii - Part 1

Cade and Branson boogie boarding at one of the many beaches we went to on Maui! This was probably one of the kids and the dads favorite things to do! We all enjoyed it tho. However, you'll collect more sand in your swimsuit than ever thought possible!!!
Matt

Cade boogie boarding. The poor kid did this for so long that he got board rash all over his stomach! That didn't stop him tho, he was back out doing it everyday! Cade, Hay & Bean got taken out so many times by waves that were a little to large for them! It was kind of funny:)

Whale Watching!!!! This was my favorite thing that we did in Hawaii! We went out on an ocean raft... a little scary at first. Its a small raft, and it held about 20 people... 30 ft raft vs. 60 ft. whale! It was great tho, we got so close to the whales and they even swam right under us... that made me a little nervous!





This is the front of the raft! Cade and Hay sat right up in the front the whole time... even when we were driving really fast! They loved it!! Our guide Shawn went and sat by them and held the back of there shirts so they wouldn't fly out into the ocean!

Nice tail as our guides would say!


Mom and baby! They were so amazing to watch! I would do it again and again!
