Burnt Cookies

How come no matter what it always seems like I burn the last batch of cookies. GRRR-So Frustrating. 

I think it's because when I first start out I am focused on baking and then by the end I have so many other things that have come up or that I start working on that I just end up spacing it-even when I set a timer!!!

School Pictures

I got the kids school pictures back.

Visit to the Dentist

Last Thursday the kids and I had our semi-annual dentist visit. This was to be Bryce's first official visit. We had been practicing with him for a few days talking about the dentist and having him open up and say AHHH. When we got there we were able to get him to sit in the chair. When they started to clean his teeth I had to hold him, but he let them brush them without to much fuss. He would not however let them count them-haha. They said he did great for a first visit.

The rest of us came away with good reports-no cavities for anyone. The two older kids were super pleased with their reward of a free cookie dough from Papa Murphy's certificate and had me stop by on the way home to redeem them.

Early Out School Days-Jumping Jacks Fun

All last week Chloe got out of school early every day, so she had lots of free time to play. One day I took her and Brydee and the babies to Jumping Jacks. Even though they didn't stay long they had a blast and wore themselves out.

Triple Fun or Triple Threat

Hanging with the cousins...triple the fun or maybe more like a triple threat!!!

Soccer-Triple 3

Saturday Chloe had her third soccer game of the season. Her team pulled off another win 6-1 and yes miss Chloe managed to score another goal this game. She is loving it and loving the team she is on.One of her friends from Hurricane was on the other team-they were both surprised to see each other on the field.

 Third Game, Third Win, Third Goal-Triple 3.

Great Grandma, Brydee, and Bryce watching the game.

Silly Happy Boy!

Dixie Round-Up Rodeo 2014

The Dixie Round-Up Rodeo is a big event in St. George. Every year Chloe gets so excited to go-if only she could have been a cowgirl she would have-alas the stars just didn't align right for her ;)

Her cousin Makele was in town for the day so she went with us as did her best friend Brydee. 

Tanner doesn't really like rodeos so him and Jack opted to stay home-with a redbox movie, treats and a Slurpee from the gas station.

The Cute Girls-waiting for the Rodeo to start.

At the beginning of the rodeo they announced that there was one program signed by the rodeo commissioner and whoever had it could come sit in the best seats in the house for the night (they were a couple of lazy-boy recliners in a really great location). Well my Grandma Angie just happened to have that program-she was working in one of the vendor booths so she brought it over to Landon and I and told us to enjoy.

Here we are in the "best seats in the house".

Look at the excitement in Bryce's eyes he absolutely loved the rodeo and all of the animals. He was so animated and tried his hardest to stay awake during the whole thing, but he ended up falling asleep a few seconds before the bull riding began (the last event). 

Part way through I called my Grandma Marshall and told her to come on over and enjoy the rodeo in style with us-Landon graciously gave her his seat and went back to sit with the girls in general admission.

The girls of course got autographs from all of the royalty.

After the rodeo was over they had a motocross show for about 15 minutes-we let the girls take over our coveted seats during this time. They loved it!!!

It was a fun and memorable night!
