Valley of Fire State Park-Las Vegas

We went to Las Vegas to spend time with my dad for my birthday and we went to the Valley of Fire State Park-it was beautiful to say the least. I plan on spending more birthdays there!

Silver Lake

The boys and their Grandpa made the trek to Silver lake, armed to do some serious fishing! Although no fish were caught, it was a great day of practicing casts. Of course we had to keep reeling in to make sure the fish hadn't eaten the bait! It was a beautiful day in the mountains!

Butlerville Days parade

Happy 24th! The boys drove their "Cottonwood Heights" police escalade in the parade this year. They followed the real police department in the parade and they had the time of their life!

The boys

Oh, my boys my boys! Aidan loves his ear protection so much he wears it to bed...We just took the boys up to Snowbird and for an excessive charge you can fish at "Austins Pond", which is LOADED with trout. The boys would catch and Mark & I did our best to quickly release. Aidan landed 3, brought 2 into the shore and had an audience at all of them. Aaron struggled with reeling one in but we had a blast-AND had the bonus of live music!

Another Year!

Aidan & Aaron celebrating their birthdays....5 & 3!

The Go Green campaign at Dannon yogurt.

Mark volunteered the kids to be in a photo shoot at Dannon yogurt (his employer) for their Go Green campaign. We in turn received a family photo.

Happy Easter!

We went to the Egg hunt at the Cottonwood Heights rec center and the boys had a blast! They had their faces painted, had balloon swords made, received a new kite....AND found lots candy and eggs! Finding a path of Easter eggs this morning was so fun! Happy Easter!

Coloring Easter Eggs!

We colored Easter eggs, our hands, and found that tye-dying paper towels was pretty cool stuff too!!!

The Canyons 3/28/09

This is Mark's prototype of his soon to be "Boat Drinks" boat. He is sure by the time the Jimmy Buffet concert scheduled for October 24th in Vegas is here that the remains of our double stroller will be a fully functioning boat/bar/on wheels.. and quite a festive one to boot. lol... We tested it for the first time at the Wailers concert. The thing is great....easily transports the cooler, chairs, blankets and still children!

Silly boys

Mommy loves her boys and just wants to eat you up!

Our new "cop car"

This is the boys new Escalade from their Nana and Papa. They are keeping the streets of Cottonwood Heights safe from the "bad guys"! Aidan has really mastered the art of driving. Of course when he has to concentrate the radio has to be turned down. The radio that has real stations!

Walking with dinosaurs

The boys had a great time at this show! Aaron hid under Marks coat for about 10 minutes and after that he couldn't stop talking! Aidan on the other hand couldn't talk as he was so mesmerized by the show!

Happy New Year
