A Fun and Cold Night of Camping

Wayne, Stetson and Caleb went with the scouts this past weekend to Crystal Hot Springs...brrr!!! Not sure why they seem to enjoy these type of cold activities, but they had a great time. Thank heavens for a great scout master with a few tricks to keep them warm with heated water bottles. They swam, had a camp fire, and slept fairly well...still sounds cold to me.

Still Smiling...

Well, Bridger didn't win his election. He has a great atttitude and will be just fine. I'm proud of him for trying. Better to have tried and failed, then never to have tried at all. I love you Bridger, we'll get'em next time.

Running for Student Body Office

He's running for Student Body Vice President Service. Here's a couple of the posters we made.

This is Bridger with Tonya, one of the new students showing her support for her favorite candidate.

Look how good this sandwich looks, Service with a smile. And good food too, SpankyS in Bountiful if you're looking for a great meal.

He's quite nervous, but has a great attitude. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. We're hoping for a win! Either way, it's a great experience for him to run.

Remember: VOTE for Bridger!

A Great Day for Ice Fishin

It was such a beautiful day yesterday, Wayne and the boys decided to take advantage and head to Jordanell for a little ice fishing, I however went shopping:) Caleb made a little "fish jail" for them to wait until they took their catch home.

They are always looking for wildlife in their travels. This moose was a welcome site.

One happy boy.

Bridger trying to stay warm, this is why I choose to go to the mall instead. This makes us all happy.

"Bug Tag"

How this works...write down 10 things that bug you and 10 people you tag...

Not in any particular order, mind you...

1. Finish cleaning up the kitchen and then someone decides their still hungry.
2. Washing my car, and finding out the weather man was wrong, and it rains.
3. Going to the store for an item, and getting home without the item, could be an age thing.
4. Running a brand new pair of nylons.
5. Mean people, and terrible customer service.
6. Going to the store and forgetting the discount coupon that is sitting on the table at home, age again.
7. My mail carrier never shuts my mailbox and our mail gets soaked all the time.
8. Thinking I turned my electric blanket on, climbing into bed and realizing it was Wayne's side.
9. Reading the obituaries and them not listing the reason the person is in there, I want to know.
10. Wondering why I have so many mismatched socks when they go in the was as pairs.


The 10 people I tag are the next 10 people who read this blog, make sure you comment so I know where to follow you.

A Very Busy Week

This is a really busy week. Bridger turned 17 on Saturday. We told him he was getting a much needed dresser. He informed us that is not what he wanted. Well, he did get the dresser and a pair of really cool headphones. He was very excited and surprised, it was fun to tease him. Bridger chose Chili's for dinner. It wasn't too long ago that a Happy Meal was the dinner choice, wow have things sure changed.

He wanted a made from scratch chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. It doesn't look the best, but was really yummy. He told me it was compariable to Costco's. I'm sure he was stretching the truth a bit, but way to score points, Happy B-day Pal.

On to Stetson's birthday. He turned 15 on Wednesday. He chose Texas Road House for his dinner. He loves steak, cooked medium and this places does not disappoint.

They put him on the birthday saddle and had everyone give him a big Texas Birthday Y'all. Even as shy and quiet as he is, he loved it.

He chose brownies and ice cream for his treat. Happy Birthday Stets, hope it was a fun day.

To continue on with our busy week, Valentines Day is around the corner. Here are the treats we made for Caleb's class.

Finally, the Valentine box that we did to look like an Ipod, complete with headphones. He was thrilled and excited to take it to school. Tomorrow's the big day. Valentine Party at school. I love this time of year. but it does get a little crazy.

Happy Heart Month

Ok, this is probably the girliest background, but with all boys, there are somethings that just must be. I love Valentine's. It such a fun time to remember all the people you love. I love frosting cookies, making valentine boxes with the kids and even their Valentine's to hand out in school. Tonight Caleb and I are going to construct his, we're aiming for an ipod. If it works, I'll post the pictures, if it doesn't we still have time for Plan B.

So, enjoy the pink and red, it doesn't last long in our house.
