Evan Turns 4!

Wow! A big 4 years old.  I love this quirky, fun, gregarious, high energy, stubborn, sweet, sassy, star wars lovin  kid!
He always keeps the whole family on their toes.
Two funny stories about Evan:
One day he decided that if I would not take him to his friends house that he would just take himself.  He hopped on his scooter and was on his way.  I did not realize that he was headed out.  A few minutes later my neighbor from across the street came over and said, "I have so and so I the phone and they found Evan on the other side of the river headed to his friends."  I hopped in the car and drove over and sure enough there he was scootering along with some ladies in my ward following him in their car.  The good news is, he would not get in their car.  They did not have any candy, gum, popsicles, or puppies, I guess.  So thanks to all my guardian angels who watch out for my precious boy.

And, the other night we were in the car.  He was sucking on his shirt and getting it really wet.  I asked him to stop and he said "But mom there is drink in it."  I know, gross, but still kind of funny.

Grandma turns 60

My mom turned 60 this year!  We had a great party.   I spent a lot of hours scanning old pictures of my mom and making a slide show.  I thought I would share some of my favorites of my mom.  My mom raised 9 kids when she was younger than me.  After she divorced she raised 5 of us by herself through most of our teen years.  What a super woman.  We were not easy kids.  But, I have to say we all turned out well.  So thanks Mom!

This is me when I was several weeks old.

Wendover Air Show

Today we went to the airshow in Wendover!  It was sooo much fun!  We loved the F-16 Fighting Falcon and the Super Hornet.  Man,  those planes are fast and loud.  By the time the sound hits you the planes are long gone.  The kids had fun though it was very hot.  We went played at the park in Wendover and went to a mediocre buffet.  Of course we found a cool letterbox in Wendover.  We are adding more to our book every week!
