Tractor Time with Grandma and Grandpa

 

Happy Birthday Stocky

 

Our Baby turned ONE! I can't believe it's been a year-wow how some days are so long-but when you look back time seems to just fly by!

 

A Utah Jazz player came today to Roosevelt-Utah! His name was Morris Almond. He was a Rookie this year for the Jazz. Payton had a ball with him and with his second cousin Cody Garner! He even picked Payton to play one on one with him-(he loved Payton's old school jersey)

Home Sweet Home

 

Oh it feels so good to be HOME. I loved spending two days with my sister-just talking and hanging out at her house. Then on to family get togethers and playing with family. I don't think we have gone to bed early since we have been home-but isn't that what summer is all about?!

Nashville Star

So our family is so steamed right now! My cousin was on Nashville Star last night and it was a diaster! He was cut by the judges before we even got to vote. The worst part is that it was a set up. They had to retape the show twice because Jewel did not want to vote him off but the producers made her. He said after the show was over Jewel said that she didn't want to vote him off but had no choice and also his asst. heard the producers trying to spice up the show. What a JOKE. He said the crowd got to vote and he came in third. But you know a Good Mormon White Boy-just didn't fit. He is such a good guy-I hope that someone will find him and love his voice. We are all so proud of him! He said it was an amazing experience. But you know the show did not even compare to American Idol-so I"m actually glad he is done. But so proud that he made it to the top 12 out of 45,000 people!

Happy Birthday to My Honey Jackson (he is 30)

 

We spent most of the day at the Muir Redwood Forrest! It truly was breath taking!

Good Bye San Fran

We have been so excited to move back to Utah, but as this is our last weekend here I have shed alot of tears this weekend! It's funny how sometimes you don't realize what great people you meet in your life until you have to say goodbye! We really have had so many fun experiences in San Fran.! We have had such great times with our friend Allen from Roosevelt that lives here, he even took us out this weekend to our favorite place Benihana's to say goodbye. I am so grateful for all the friends I have made here. Everyone has been so great to me and especially to my boys. I will miss the park and swimming ALOT! I want to thank Laurel for the awesome birthday party-I will never forget that and I also want to thank JOSIE my friend that has always called us to invite us to everything even though we went to Utah almost every weekend-she always included us and really has taught me how to be a friend! (Especially to new people in the ward)! I am so grateful for all those that have been so kind and welcoming to us! We will never forget our sweet time in San Fran. We are excited to get home to our family and start our next adventure in LIFE!

Cousin Time

We had a great weekend. We were able to go to Six Flags with Jackson's cousin Amy and her family and also Jackson's Aunt Sherry. We haven't seen Amy for five years, so it was great fun for the kids to meet and for us to get caught up! Six Flags was amazing-We really liked the shows and the animals-but to top it off we got to ride roller coasters~! It was a fun day and we loved making new memories with new cousins! We hope to see you guys soon and more often!
