Tedy Times

Some fun pix from Ted's recent trip to AZ. Doesn't look like he had any fun at all ;)

Battle Tubes

Rich you're sooooo buff!

Dr. Dave Diggity Fife sporting some nice guns too!

Walking on the Moon

A brief tribute to our new little Astronaut and of course The Police. Ted just happens to be in AZ preparing to see them live on Monday. When I say "preparing" I mean water skiing, unlimited Xbox fun, Police Pre-Party and hanging out with his Cousins. Gosh he sure is lucky! Oh wait... I got to go to Hawaii. Funny thing is we both think we got the better end of the deal. Love when it works out that way ;)

This is Jack's Diorama that he worked on all week at Rocket Camp!

Seems like after I have days where I just can't seem to get a GRIP...we have moments like these:) I love it!!

Better Together

Hawaii Trip

I got this fantastic idea for posting millions of pictures at once from Emily who got it from Audra who either got it from someone else or was the creative mind behind it all! Thanks!You thought I was kidding when I said I took 400 pictures! This is only a fraction of what I took! Yikes. It sure was fun though. Can't wait to do it again.

Our Preschool Grad

First off....sorry for the blogging delay. I had to break for some temporary craziness. Height of the wedding season for pictures right now along with our AWESOME hawaii trip and I've fallen behind. Lyd, I'm working on the pix from our vacation but when you take 400 pictures it's REALLY hard to narrow down a few for the blog! Well here he is...our MODEL preschooler. Paying ever so close attention to his teacher as she reads to them before the graduation program and ceremony.At least he is doing the actions to the song in this shot and not bumping the kid next to him off the stage like in all my other pictures.

They always do such a good job decorating for each event.

Happy Mother's Day

I picked Jack up from preschool on Friday and he got in the car so excited! He could hardly wait to hand me this....

The look on his face, his cute smile and sense of pride in what he had made. I immediately started balling! That is when I got it...you know that same feeling that I'm sure all of our Mother's had when we gave them cute little drawings or pictures we had made that they so proudly hung on the refrigerator. Here is one I dug up from the old albums that I made my mom when I was about Jack's age.

Mom I love you! Thanks for being such a great example of the kind of mom I hope I am to my boys. I remember I used to sing that song "When I grow up, I want to be a Mother" I think the song later goes on to say she would have "Six little blessings from above." Not quite sure if that's gonna happen but... I'm so glad I grew up to be a mother. I love being a Mom! I love my boys and I especially love their daddy.

The OTHER way to say "I'm Cold"

The other day it was so hot we had all the windows open in the house, including the one in Jack's bedroom. During the night it got soooo cold. Well, about 4 am Jack comes in my room, I'm not really coherent at this point so he has to repeat himself like 50 times. "Mom, my

BLANKETS not WORKING." Sure enough when I went to get him back in bed his room was an ICEBOX! I felt so bad. That is Zoe in the bottom curled up helping him get warm. I just think it is so cute when she curls up next to her buddy Jack.

We're missing someone!

So last weekend Ted, Max and I went to San Diego to shoot my MTC companions wedding. We left Jack with my Mom and it just seemed so odd to me when we took some of these pictures and Jack wasn't with us. Once we got home and I downloaded all the pix it was even stranger to actually look at the picture. Someone was definitely missing :( This is at the Montage in Laguna. Seriously minutes before before we got there 2 people were killed in one of the bungalow suites by cops. We didn't know that when we first arrived and had just taken a picture with the crime scene in the background. Within seconds this security guy came up and made us delete it and watched us do it, just to make sure. Max has inherited Jack's one eyed smileThis was a rare sight.... a picture of the San Diego temple

with NO ONE in the background.

While I was taking pictures Ted & Max passed the time hanging out with these cute ladies who fell in love with Max and making him smile.
