GIRLS NIGHT!

So, a couple of weeks ago I got a text message from McKenzie asking if I could take her to the last Owls game of the season! My first thought was, why would she ask me when her Dad loves baseball, but then I figured it was cause she likes me more than him! Ha ha Ya Right! I guess it was just cause she wanted to spend time with me! And I love spending time with her so that made it a good deal!! She invited Baylee to come and we made a girls night out of it! We left for the game a little late and we were starving! Baylee said she had never eaten at Burger King for dinner before so Kens and I thought that would be a great place to stop real quick! I got up to order and the look on both their faces was so funny! I wish I took a picture! lol Lets just say that the Wendys next door worked so much better! After a ride of eating, laughing and watching Baylee dance and sing to Hairspray we finally made it to the game! We had seats but we chose the grass so we could have more fun! After being there for an hour Kens was questioning the choice of sitting on the grass! There were two little boys that got hit with fly balls and Kens knew that she was going to be next! Luckily that didn't happen and I was proud of her for sticking it out! We had so much fun that I can't even remember who won! We played with my camera taking silly pictures of eachother! We were CRAZY!! ha ha The girls rolled down the grass and had races and I sat there and froze! But I loved watching them play!! The fireworks were awesome after the game! I thought the girls would be tired because of all of the fun that we had! But it was back to the car to watch Baylee rock out to Hairspray again!! That girl is so funny! I loved my girls night with two of the cutest girls ever! I learned so much about both of them that I didn't know before! "Don't worry girls I won't tell your parents who you like!" ha ha just kidding! Kenzie and Baylee really are best friends and I hope they will be forever! They know eachother inside and out! I had so much fun with them! I hope that we can do it again sometime! Thanks Kens for inviting me!! I know it was probably hard for you girls to hang out with your old aunt but it was a blast! I LOVE YOU GUYS!!

SCHOOL DAYS!!

School has started again and it's crazy how grown up everyone is getting! Morgan started the 1st grade! I was so sad to see her go all day! She says the best part of being in the first grade is eating lunch at school and also that she has tons and tons of recesses! Not to mention she is going to the same school as most of her cousins this year. Keli drove an extra 30 minutes in her commute to take Morgan to school because we had not moved yet! She is an amazing Mom! I bet now that we have moved closer she likes that we are only a couple of minutes away. Morgan chose a Hannah Montana backpack this year and she looked so cute in her PINK outfit!! Buddy and Keli, can you believe that our little peanut is in the first grade?



Britton had his first day of Pre School this morning! He was so excited to go and he looked so cute. For those of you who know Brit you know that he is very sensitive and a little emotional, so Keli didn't know what to expect when she dropped him off at school. When they got there Keli leaned down and said "Can I have a Kiss?" I guess he looked at her like oh mom and said "Maybe just a little one," that's when you know he is growing up. We worried about Brit the whole morning and when I went to pick him up he just smiled and said "Hi Stac!", his teacher said that he did an awesome job. We are so proud of him! When Keli took Britton school shopping the only thing that he would pick out was long sleeved shirts and pants. He is funny that way! He got a Kung Fu Panda backpack and Thomas tennis shoes!! He is such a cutie! I just can't believe how grown up he is.

So that leaves me and Tyler home alone in the mornings (well until baby#4 arrives)! Ty had to get a backpack like his brother and sister. He saw Elmo and wouldn't settle for anything else. Some days he will go with Keli to take the kids to school and come back and yell, "Teacher Stacy I am here!" Its so cute!! I just don't know where the time goes! I am so lucky to have a sister that will share her kids with me! They are a huge part of my life and I love them so much!! Thank you so much Keli for all that you do for me, your kids are one of the best things in my life!!

RED/BLUE LIGHTNING

Yes, I think that I am CRAZY!! Becky called me two weeks ago and told me how no one would coach Spencer's soccer team so of course I told her that I would do it!! I forgot how much I loved the game and it has been so much fun! There are 11 boys on the team from six to seven years old!! They are a handful but I like the challenge!! Our first game was last week and we lost big time. Half of the team has never played on such a big field and they seemed to get tired fast! I noticed though that our team was having fun playing and they didn't seem to care that we lost so that is always a plus!! Our second game is tomorrow so I will let you know how that goes! I just hope that they are having as much fun as I am!

TIMP CAVE!!

Saturday Scott and I went on another adventure!! We hiked up to Timp Cave!! It was so much fun!! We started out at 7:00 am and got up the Canyon in no time!! Did I mention that it was freezing!! Well it was, and of course I didn't bring a jacket!! So it was a quick stop by the gift shop and then on to the hike!! I didn't really know what to expect!!! The hike wasn't that bad actually it killed me more on the way down!! Once we got to switch back #6 Payton wanted to be done!! Scott just kept telling him that it would be worth it!! We were only about a 1/4 of the way there!! We had fun telling stories and singing on the way up!! That is until we got to the sign that said beware of rattle snakes!! I think I picked up my pace more at that moment!! When we got up there it was so worth it!! Our tour guide was really cute!! ha ha!! No that's not why, that place is amazing!! Really, it was so cool!! Kelsea really thought that we were going to run into cougar while we were inside!! I didn't realize how big it really was!! Poor Payton hit his head more than I could count!! Baylee was in awe like the rest of us!! Did I mention that it was freezing!! The Jacket I bought was so worth it!! By the time we got out of the cave we were dreaming of hamburgers and cheese fries!! We made it down in good time!! Kelsea wanted to eat lunch at the Training Table!! That food never tasted so good!! I had so much fun with Scott and his kids!! I can't wait until I do it again!! So, whats next hiking buddy?

A WEEK AT THE CABIN!!!

My favorite place in the whole world is our Cabin at Soldier Creek!! I was so excited to spend a week there this year!! No cell phones, no stress, just a week to relax!! And read Breaking Dawn!! Man was that good!! I can't wait for the movie!! Keli and her kids plus Sydnee stayed the week too!! Grandma Chris and Aunt Janet came up Monday night!! We spent the week watching movies, dancing on the deck (Well the kids danced) , reading books, hiking, four wheeling, and of course eating all day long!! Keli had a craft a day for the kids, we painted rocks and made bags and frames and colored pictures!! They always asked every morning when they would get to do a craft!! I think it was their favorite time of the day!! They also spent most of their time outside playing and hiking!! It took Britton 5 days to climb up this one side of the mountain!! We kept telling him to keep trying and he did and finally made it up!! Sydnee, Morgan and I hiked down to the lake!! It was such a pretty day and the girls were so excited that I let them get wet!! It was funny watching them play!! I don't think they liked hiking back all wet!! The best part of the week was when the rest of the Family came up!! As you can tell I love my Family!! It was fun spending time with them! We had fun watching the Olympics and just hanging out!! But the best part was the CHICKEN TACOS!!!

Owl's Game!!!

We went to the Owl's game this last week!! Scott, Buddy, Keli, Taylor, Baylee, Morgan, Kelsea, Payton, Britton, Tyler and Me!! Keli and I sat on the grass and watched the game while the kids played!! I don't think we saw the little ones the whole time!! Buddy and Scott had the good seats!! So of course we didn't see them until it was over!! Taylor slept through about half of it and Britton didn't leave Keli's sight!! Baylee was my helper!! We went and got food and treats for everyone!! Kelsea watched the little kids at the playground!! It was so fun watching the game!! Plus they have got a bunch of HOT players on their team!! Especially the catcher that warmed up the pitchers!! Hmm...DREAMY!!! Don't worry I got pictures but I think I am going to keep them all to myself!! About the sixth inning of the game we got camera happy!! I had so much fun with my girls!! Taylor and Baylee!! We had the best time snapping pictures of each other!! It lasted for what seemed like hours!! I have never laughed as much with them as that night!! Taylor is so funny she is never serious!! As you can see!!! She got so close to licking my face!! She kept getting mad cause I kept cutting her out! I swear on my life it wasn't on purpose!! I just didn't want her to lick me!! Love you Tay!! It was the funnest night!! I had fun spending time with these kids! Maybe it was because Baylee mentioned that it was fun to hang out with me!! Ha Ha!! NO its just cause I love them!! This was so much fun!! I LOVE my family so much!! I hope that we can do this again!! Thanks guys for letting me come!!

Sawyer Brown!!!

Last week was so much fun!!! My sister Becky loves me so so so much!! Her friend Brenda got extra tickets to see SAWYER BROWN and asked if we could go!!!! Of course I said YES, you can't turn down a chance to see them in concert!! They are the best!! For those of you who haven't seen them you are missing out!! REALLY!!! It is one of the best concerts that I have been too!! Mark Miller, the lead singer, can dance and sing and not get out of breath at all!! I don't know how he does it!! He has so much energy!! Not to mention he is really really good looking!! Plus they have the best music!! I loved it!! Thanks so much Becky and Brenda for thinking of me!! It was a total BLAST!!! Thank you, Thank you!!!
