Where does time go?

10 years ago March 23rd this sweet little bundle of joy came to be with me!!! Wow I cannot believe that he is already 10. I swear he is still this little boy. But he is not! He is such a great kid and so loving and kind. He does have his moments don't get me wrong. But more times then not he is perfect. He is awesome big brother who has his hands very full with 3 little boys looking up to him, and trying to be just like him. Preston always says his favorite day is Sunday because McKay does not have to go to school or get to play with friends. So he gets him all to himself all day long. McKay would deny it but I really think he enjoys being with them too. Every Saturday morning I wake up to them all in McKay's bed cuddling playing the PSP. At night when they are getting ready for bed they turn on the music and dance around the house together. I hope there bond just gets stronger and stronger. I know McKay will always stick up for his brothers. What a great blessing to have this sweet boy be mine! I love you McKay.


This is when he was 1 year old. He is so handsome:)


This is one of my favorite pictures from our wedding! Look how much he loves his Mom! He is 3 years old.


What a great big brother the boys have! Here he is 6 years old.


We love you so much McKay! We hope you have a great Birthday! Thank you for being such a great kid. Thank you for everything you do and loving us all so much!


HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Such A Pain!!!

So our laptop died a few weeks ago. Korey went out and bought a new computer. But even though our laptop was slow and would have problems all the time! I miss it!!! I cannot find the program to download to our new computer so I can download fun pictures and actually update my BLOG. I have had issues after issues with the dang ward bulletin that I have to do on Sundays. All my soccer stuff was saved on there and all my craft sign ups were saved on there. All my pictures are on there too!!! I do have to say it is a very nice computer and Korey even set up the printer that I bought Thanksgiving of 2007. So don't get me wrong I like it, but man I miss all my stuff on the laptop and knowing how to do everything on the laptop. Sorry to vent I will update when I can get my pictures downloaded!!!

X-Country Skiing (ALMOST)

Last Friday night our ward had an Elders Quorum date night. They activity was to go up to Aspen Grove to go X-Country skiing at night! It sounded pretty cool so we decided to go. Misty and Barry decided to come along with us. We took our little KIA Rio. The weather was not the greatest that day. But we decided to dress warm and go anyways. We all meet at the church and then carpooled up the canyon. As we turned off the main road to head up to Aspen Grove it was snowing really hard and the roads were way icy. We barley made it to Sundance and decided the roads were to bad and to turn around and the group of us would just get ice cream some where. As we were headed down to the main road our car started to slide and slide and slide some more until we ended on the side of the road having one tire hanging off the edge of a cliff and the other front tire being way to close to going off the edge. I do not know what stopped us. But I am so glad we stopped. If we would have gone over we would have landed in the river and most likely gone upside down. It was pretty crazy! As we got out we called to get a tow truck. Cars kept trying to stop and help but as they slowed down there car would start to slide. One car came really close to hitting us as it was sliding. A Sundance truck came down to help and they were even sliding in 4 wheel drive. The Highway Patrol came to help us and they had to walk up the road to find us because even there car would not make it up. So to make a long story short we stood on the side of the road for 2 hours in the freezing snow storm. Trying no to get hit by sliding cars. Until a tow truck could make it to us. He then pulled us back on the road and we drove home. What a fun way to spend a date night! I hope the Walkers will forgive us for trying to kill them. Maybe they will trust us one day again and we can go out on a real date!!! Thanks Babe for being a good driver and not taking us all the way over the edge.

The 4 of us trying to make light of the whole situation!!!


This is the side that was still on solid ground


This is not the best picture but it was way dark and snowing so you do what you can! This is the side over the edge!

Worth The Fight

I took all 4 boys (by myself) for their 6 month dental checkup. It is such a battle twice a day to brush all of their teeth. But I am happy to say that it was worth the fight. None of them have cavities! WAHOOOO!!! It was not to bad. They were all good except for PRESTON. That boy is so tough when it comes to things like this. He is just so flipping strong and stubborn. I know he must have got the stubborn thing from his Dad. But after fighting and threatening he did comply with my wishes and sat and let them clean his teeth. I think next time it is Korey's turn to take them.
