Thank you all!

Thank you to all those who helped with our Sub for Santa Project. The Masons & Stocks put their hearts first and helped out Women and Children have a good Christmas. We also had the Stock family party it was fun and the kids loved it.
The YW leaders took the girls to the Temple to look at the lights, As you can see there is a Wheelchair in the picture. Our President was sick and wouldn't of been able to walk that much so we got a wheelchair and off we went and the lights were beautiful.

Park City

So just pictures of what we have been doing. It is the season and a busy one it is. We have ahd fun playing with our friends from Logan. We went to Park City and the girls loved playing in the Hot tub and jumping on the bed of couse. Thanks agian Wilcocks for the great time.

Dear Santa

So Little Emma wrote her Dear Santa list today she got half way through it and then wanted me to write it. She is excited about it now we need to send it to the North Pole.

Fall time

Its that time to clean up leaves. The kids got to play while i was trying to clean up. it was fun

Halloween

I know this is from Halloween but we actually have a family picture. Emma was a Pretty Witch and Coop was a stunt car driver. This is us at the Zoo it was crazy.

The 3 amigos or 3 stooges?

Yes that would be our basement. Zac, George and our neigbor Grant are helping to tear down the wall so we can frame it back up. I should say so Zac can frame it back up. I think they needed to let some steam off. But they finished it it looks great.

Battling Cancer

A tribute to all of my family members who have battled cancer and lost. Most recently is my Aunt Kaye who lost her battle on Nov 6, 2007. Last year for the first time i went with my other Aunt Jo and participated in the Race for the Cure. I am going to try and do it every year and one day hope little Emma wants to join us. Please remember all those you know or don't know that battle with all types of cancer.

Emma's Surgery

Just an update on Emma's Surgery it went good. Dr. Dowding said he got it all out and looked good. I have pictures coming but we are doing good we took the bandages off today and had a real bath. So thank you to all that gave Emma little treats, balloons and things it was wonderful for you to think of her.

9 /11

Just passing the 7th annivarsary of 9/11 it reminds me that i live in a pretty good country and just hurts to think of all those families that lost a love one. I am greatful for all the soliders out there in the line of fire so that i can live in a free country. Thanks to all the military men and women for what you are doing. Even my Brothers that are serving their country.

Horses of course

Can't go to the fair with out riding the horses. That was the higlight of the night. Thanks again Wendy & Tyler.

Cotton candy, horses & rides

Yup we went to the State fair. Thanks to uncle Tyler we got free tickets and a good parking spot. Emma and Jordyn got to ride the pony east cotton and candy rides more cotton candy. They had fun even Tyler fit in the rides with 2 little girls. Some of those rides they don't make for adults.

Cheer loud

So yes once again Emma did Mini Cheerleading. She gets all escited but then when it gets down to it well she will just watch everyone else. The first picture is her warming up that she did good at. Then her new little friend Kirsten from down the street. and her doing one of the dance moves. It was a fun thing for her to do and one of my Laurels is a cheerleader so we supported her and her team. She loves to dance and do flips, but only when no one is looking.

Not my child!

So to start off i read on my friends blog about how her little girls had a tantrum in the store, and i thought i have been there, oh but not until this day WOW!. Okay so as you can see i went and took Coop to go get his hair cut at a little place called Cookies Cutters. Emma didn't want her hair cut so she played and sat in the Police car she was being an excellent little girl. I put Coop in the airplane and turned on a movie and sat there as good as he ever has been. So i am at the desk paying and Emma has a Hannah Montana brush and a sparkly purple head band. She wanted both and i said to her "You can have one which one do you want" She relplys BOTH", so you can see where this went i told her no and if she acts this way she gets nothing. out of the blue she throws a HUGE HUGE tantrum, to the point she is kicking and screaming and telling me things you don't want to hear from you little girl. She held on so tight i had to pry her hands from the brush, but the head band well she held on so tight that by the time i got it out of her hands it was not what it looked like in the first place so ya i had to buy it. so we now have a sparkly head band hanging up in our house and she asks do i get that yet and i say no, she replys because i was bad. So to all the moms our there enjoys these moments at least thats what people tell us right. By the way anyone want a purple head band. Ha Ha

Hair Cut

Belly Button

Yes that is a black belly button it is actually Emma's. Some of you have heard we are having a time with this. A few weeks ago Emma told me her belly button hurt and when she should it to me it was red with fluid coming out, i know kinda gross. So we went to the doctor she got put on anitbiotics, and then up to Primarys for an ultrasound, nothing then it healed up. Then last week it came back so we went up to the Dr. and saw a different then are normal one and she said "oh i see this all the time in brand new babies ( i am thinking to my self but in a five year old?) so she numbed her up and put silver nitrate on it (cartarized it) so not 4 hours later she showed it to me cause it was hurting and now blood was coming out and her stomach was swollen. So we then went to a surgeon at Primarys and well she is now scheduled to have surgery on the 24th of Sept. So we will see how it goes and hopefully this will take care of it. She is okay now we just have to keep the infection out before surgery.

Not a baby anymore!

Emma's first day of Kindergarten, I can't beleive she is that big to go. So far she is having a fun time talks about her friends she met and her teacher. She isn't my baby anymore she is a big girl and i get reminded of that all the time. At least i still have Coop.

What are straws used for?

Yes this would be us at dinner with some friends Jas, Camille, Macy & Kate. The girls were having to much fun with the straws and the adults well we could of gone crazy with our kids but what do you do, you just love them. We need to get together again Emma keeps asking to play with Macy again.

Emma's 5th Birthday

My little girl turned five and what a good spirit she was it was just the day before that she had all the stuff happen on her belly button, but she isn't going to miss out on her Birthday.

And the fun keeps going

Kanagroo Zoo

So as you can see Emma had a blast on her Birthday. We went to a place called Kangaroo Zoo a place that is just full of those inflatable clides and jumping things and black light mini golf. As you can see it wasn't just the kids that had fun all the adults i think went on at least one, and of course Zac and my dad well had a hard time getting out of them so they just rolled out. You could tell of what adult went down the slides all of the elbows or heads had burns on them it was great. It was 2 hours of 16 kids yelling and screaming it was fun. We then went into the BUG room with blue charis that Emma picked out and had pizza and cake and did presents, with bubbles coming down from the cealing the kids loved it and the last surprise was Coco the Kangaroo came to say Happy Birthday to Emma (not to fond of him she wouldn't go near him). Thank you to all that came it was great.

Becareful

Ouch

Weeeeeeeee

Youth Conference

That would be one of the leaders in the hat isn't she just cute. All the girls laying out playing guitar. Zac got to come along because the YW leaders had to have somewhere to sleep, and it wasn't going to be on the ground so what a great guy to pull up our trailor so we had a potty and comfort. The kids did baptisms for the dead at the Manti Temple and then a service project at the cemetery and then up the mountain we went. It was fun and the kids did great.

Nice day to get wet

So as you can see we had canoes up there and if you look close that would be Jessie(Emma's Nanny & the bishops daughter) trying not to get west the first picture she actually did not get wet she jumped on top but the second time around, yup in the water she went.

Mexico?

No we are not in Mexico that would be our Bishop, Yep we had another adventure and went to youth conference the fun part was Zac got to come and as you can see the men well they didn't do much as you can see sat around and well they were lazy. We went up to a leaders family property and camped out the kids had a great time and yes so did us leaders.

Coops Blessing

So August 13th, on top of it being my Birthday, we had the wonderful opportunity to bless cooper and the best part of it my sweet husband got to do it. I am very proud of him. It was great we had family there to support us they are great.

Bath Time

My kids love the bath, Cooper is the worst you say bath and his clothes and diaper are almost off. Emma had her cousin Jordyn over and well yup bath time, and that little girl is not afraid of water, she loved to dump it on her face, Emma not so much Coop will once in a while.

Tea Party or Wedding?

So Emma was dying to have a Tea Party with her new Tea sets (Thanks Jessie) So of course the good spirit that Asher is he did the Tea Party, but the catch was they got real food. They had a ball and then they decided to dress up like they were going to a wedding and sorry Ash Emma only has pink hats. But in the end they had a ball.

Blue Cotton Candy

It is hard to see but there are the 3 little cousins in there Emma, Asher & Mckenna. They had fun at the park and yes of course he had to get BLUE cotton candy. For anyone who doesn't know Emma, well her favorite color of course is Blue so we always have to buy or get something that is blue.

Carnival time

So after the parade the park always has crnival games and food. So of course Emma had to ride the swings a couple of times. She had fun it was stinkin HOT!!
