too much fun 2010

I am laughing at Bret who can't take the Smell of this......

Yes, that's BARF everywhere and I mean everywhere. So short version we stopped at Bret's friends house and he gave us some cookies, then we stopped in Colorado City and brought some rice crispy treats at a bake sale and we didn't plan on really spending the whole day driving up to the Grand Canyon. So we had only packed water, granola bars, and a few snacks. So while driving up there Ty ate and ate and Bret and I didn't realize how much he snacked on the junk until the way back down the Grand Canyon about 12 miles aways from the nearest anything. Ty tells us he is not feeling well and I tell him that we have just had a long day and he is just tired and he kept on telling me that he wasn't feeling good and I kept just telling him to close his eyes and take a nap. Well I sure believed him when both Bret and I was sprayed with Barf. Well since we were 12 miles away from anything and we weren't prepared for this. We had to endure the smell and poor Ty was only in his underwear. I did give him my under shirt and we drove with the windows down until we reached a gas station and cleaned things up.
We all learned an important lesson, bring a good lunch, make sure your kids don't eat all the cookies, bring wipes, extra clothes and more water.
It still turned out to a great day!!!!


Grand Canyon 2010

I just love this picture of the three monkeys!!!




Yes, we were freezing and wasn't prepared for that. So we found the gift shop that had sweatshirts 50% off for the kids. I wished they had my size (lol). I enjoyed purchasing them for the kids and loved how they all matched and they thought that was so awesome as well.



Grand Canyon 2010













This year on our trip down in St George we went up the Grand Canyon. It was just a tiny glimpse of it. We drove forever, enjoyed shops, hiking, the fresh air, and the beauty. It was amazing.

Our Pinic Lunch at Bryce Canyon 2010









Here are the pictures of our lovely trip down to St George. Where we stopped on the way into St George and enjoyed a picnic at Bryce Canyon. We enjoyed a little hike as well. It was great way to start our trip.

St' George's Dinosaur Musem 2010









This year on our annual trip to St George for my UPHA convention we took the kids to the Dinosaur museum where we had fun looking at all the different types of dinosaurs there were, finding bones, and finding a treasure in Clay. The kids also enjoyed coloring pictures and making things at the museum.

Nature at it's best





Every year we go down to St. George for my work Annuals UPHA's convention. This year on the way down to St George we stopped at Bryce Canyon and then before heading back up to Salt Lake we went to Zion's National park and the Grand Canyon. Wow God created beauty everywhere and its been great to appreciate it and teach my children about it. We had a blast with picnics and hiking and enjoying Gods Creations.





T-Ball Spring 2010








Yes, the two monkeys played T-Ball this year for the first time and did well. At the first of the season they both didn't even know how to hold a bat, catch a ball or even put a glove on in the right hand. By the end of the season both of them were hitting the ball as the coach pitched to them, catching the ball in their glove. It was a great experience and they can't wait to do it again next Spring.
Side note Ty was going to be the only one playing T-Ball cause Kai'imi was in Hula well then that changed. Coach Ben who is also the kids soccer coach said that Kai'imi could join their team so she did. She was the only girl on the team but loved it.
