CATCH UP

Wow it has been a long time since I updated my blog so I am now playing CATCH UP. First we had the END OF SCHOOL! I think that i was more excited than my kids. And yes both my kids are passed their grades Ashton is going to move up to the 5th grade (What the heck yes I have a 5th grader.) Bam is going to be in 1st grade ( in school all day so sad!) And i guess that leaves me and Chaetton home all day by ourselves. I did not get any pictures of the last day of school for Ashton (yes i am a bad mother) but I got some from Bam's kindergarten graduation which was the funniest thing ever. Bam with his teacher Mrs. Wright
Christian and Bam we are so glad he moved here and he lives next door
Collin Bam Tyler, these boys were trouble
Next we had Chaetton's 2nd Birthday, I cannot believe he is 2 i am seriously sad to think about it. He is the cuttest kid and SO BUSY I cannot take him anywhere. He loves to play with cars and anything outside. few pictures from the birthday party



few pictures of Chaetton through his life






Even though Chaetton hits and throws cars, dirt and anything else at Bam, and then runs to Ashton whenever he is in trouble we would not trade him for anything.
Baseball season has started again. Ashton plays pitcher and shortstop and his team is doing very well with 0 losses this season they are wishing for a state trophy this year so I will post more after state. Bam is playing T-ball again which is very entertaining to watch. He is improving every game. I was going to post some pictures but it is taking way to long so I will post them later. We have some fun family trips planned this summer so hopefully I will stay caught up. Hope everyone has a fun and safe summer

What We Have Been Up To

This winter was and has been a long one! We got lots and lots of snow, and even had a snow day! I don't remember ever having a snow day when I was little but after it dumped like two feet of snow and the power had been out all night and all day they decided to have a snow day so what did we do???? We went outside and played in all that snow.




After I pulled the kids around town behind the car, having a dog chase them and Ashton losing a shoe two hours later we realized that when the power is out you cannot pump gas ;) and you can also not drive anywhere to get gas when you have no gas so that ended our snow day.

One day Brian took the boys ice fishing. I think that they had lots of fun, they take food and BBQ right on the lake and they have tents with warmers in them so they stay pretty warm.

Big Fish

Someone is tired of fishing.Ashton also finished up basketball season, they do no keep score yet but they did really well and it is fun to watch them learn and have fun!

Even Bam and Chaetton had fun at the games.To finish catching up the other day it got warm like 50 degree's warm so the boys decided to go out and have a paintball fight which was very entertaining to watch. They both got "kill" shots to the head lets hope the winter weather is over and spring is on its way!


Chaetton didn't want to participate in the paintball fun so he just played in the snow and in the road I am such a good mother. So now I am caught up hope you enjoyed the super long post, look forward to pictures from my relay race and we have a camping trip planned in a couple weeks, but until then Hope the warm weather finds you all!

Christmas New Years and Catching Up

Christmas started out with the kids School Christmas program. It was good except that they decided not to have Santa this year which was weird. Ashton and Bam both did great Bam had a a hard time putting on his reindeer horns. I don't know if it was the mohawk or the fact that he doesn't know how to put on a headband, but he had the whole crowd laughing.
Of course Christmas was great again this year. Ashton and Bam were super excited they both received an email from Santa this year and come to find out they were both on the "watching"list cause they had not been nice to each other (imagine that)! But they both pulled through and came out on the good list cause they got most of what they wanted on their lists.

Ashton was most excited cause he of course got playstation and Wii games and a basketball hoops game. Bam was excited about everything that he got but he especially liked the zu zu pets. Chaetton got a basketball hoop that he plays with all the time he loved shooting hoops with the safety glasses on! You never know when a stray ball may get you in the eye.

I Had a great christmas and I hope Brian did as well! (even Santa thinks he is hard to get stuff for.) For New Years Brain and Colby went ice fishing while the girls stayed home and crafted, then we all came to our house with some friends and family we played games and even let off fireworks I think that they were the Illegal kind, but it was so freaking cold I don't think no cops were out. I did not get any pictures from that night cause i am the worlds worst picture taker, but I hope that everyone had fun. I had a few New Years Resolutions but have already fallen short! So I just hope that this year will be great and my family and friends will be Health and Happy. Happy New Year!

Ashton's Football Brian's Trip and Thnksgiving

Ashton finished up another year of football. They did it a little different this year, they had 4th grade up 13 year olds on the same team this year, which made it really good if you got all the older kids and really bad if you got the younger kids, well we got most of the younger kids but they did really good they only lost one game during the regular season and then they took fourth in the championship so they didn't do to bad. We can not wait for tackle football next year. Ashton and his teamAshton running with the ballAshton his friend Ky and Brian he was the coach again this yearBam upside down at one of the games it sure was good to have lots of family and friends there to play with.
Chaetton chilling in the stroller on a semi warm day he was usually bundled up so tight you couldn't see him.
Right before Thanksgiving Brian took a trip to go see the Utes play Notre Dame, and then he went to see the Colts game (not sure who they played) He said that they had a great time even though both teams lost and it was rainy for the Utes game.

Brain and his friend Wes on Notre Dame Campus

Some pictures of the churches at Notre Dame. He said that it was really cool to see and the churches were awesome! Now for the Colts Game A few pictures of the stadium No pictures of the cheerleaders they are probably on another camera
Brian Bought Ashton a Austin Collie Jersey and Bam a Addai Jersey they love them! We are glad that he got a chance to go and that he had a good time. We spent Thanksgiving here in Spring City with Brian's family we had a good time and of course good food. Of course I got no pictures cause I am the best mom ever. Later me my sister Teddi Sue and my sister in law Brianne went black Friday shopping (what in the world were we thinking.) No i did not get in any fights like the last time i went but it was sure fun watching people there are some CRAZY people out there.
