A fun jeep outing... We went to San Antonio with Mike and Erin. We decided to go somewhere before I had surgery again and with so many limited options because of COVID we settled on San Antonio and...it was fine. Haha. Of course we had fun with our friends and it was nice to get away for a bit but we kept saying the whole weekend that it was just fine. How was the ...
Beau and Sami B-Days/ Baptism/School Begins Virtually
We celebrated Beau's 8th Birthday on August 10. He planned out the day: donuts with dad, swimming with friends (and he requested we buy tubes which were so much fun), lunch at Chick-Fil-A, picked out new legos at The Lego Store, picked out a new hockey stick at Dick's, played legos with Bennett all afternoon, and then we had pizza and played hockey that night. It was the best ...
Summer and Birthdays
Fourth of July we had a fun parade around the neighborhood, went swimming with friends, and then our neighbors invited us to have a BBQ and fireworks show on our street. The Sagers and Uncle Taylor came over and we had lots of neighbors out. It was a great day! We bought a butterfly habitat and got caterpillars and watched them turn into chrysalises and then butterflies! ...
Biking the Strip, More Quarantine, St. George Off-roading Trip, ACL Issues
One of the coolest things we've ever done was bike the Las Vegas Strip while it was shut down due to Coronavirus. IT WAS AWESOME! I was still in a knee brace and couldn't ride a bike (I couldn't bend my knee enough to ride at all at that point). We wanted to do this so bad but needed a way for me to ride. Luckily, Chad let us borrow his electric scooter so I could ride and even ...
ACL Surgery and Life Before/Life During Quarantine
WHAT A CRAZY TIME! I had my ACL Reconstruction surgery on March 2, a few days before everything went crazy with Coronavirus. The surgery went well but I was down for a few days. It was painful and hard to move and do anything. My mom was able to be here a lot to help with kids and get them everywhere they needed to be and it was nice to have her here to help me too. She'd run ...
February
We've had a pretty chill January and February so that has been nice. We know we will be busy as soon as football and soccer start back up for the kids. Lucky Kenny and Beau went to a Golden Knight's Game! Beau was sooooo excited. Steve and Toni invited them weeks before the game but we didn't tell Beau until a few days before because we knew he wouldn't be able to stand ...
Christmas
We had such a great Christmas season! The kids are all at such fun ages and we did lots of fun Christmasy things, lots of service, Light the World, and enjoyed the Christmas season. We love that Josh and Mandy drive to Utah for Christmas because it means they have to stop in Vegas! They usually spend the Friday and Saturday before Christmas with us and we always have a good ...
Halloween, Waco, Kayli’s B-day, Christmas Time
This is a really long post! It's been a headache to finish but I can't give up on this! We've had a great couple of months celebrating the holidays and we've been busy so here we go... We went on our annual Halloween date. Chase still has us going to Haunted Houses after all of these years! Off-roading with friends and Kenny took Trey and Talon with them too! We ...
Fall is Here and a Utah Trip
We are enjoying life and keeping busy! Soccer games started for the boys. Kenny is coaching Beau's team and they are doing great! I help coach at practices and it's actually a lot of fun. We have a fun team and they are really learning positions and are fun to watch play! Trey scored 7 goals in his first game. Nobody else was very interested in playing that game- haha. He is ...
Utah, Back to School and Birthdays
I had a birthday... We had the best time in Utah. Me and the kids were able to be there for 9 days and we did so much and still weren't ready to leave when it was time. Our kids love it there and I think they're maybe Utah kids at heart! Trey loved seeing so many barns as we drove and would be so happy to live on a farm and take care of animals. Kayli loves all the good ...
