We had a yummy dinner at Mom & Dad's and the kids did the annual Easter Egg hunt.  It use to be candy with a few quarters and dollars. Now there big kids and there is no candy .....it's all money....1's 5's 10's and even 20's.  The kids all did really well and loved their winnings.

Almost Bowler of the Year!


Bowlers of the month for 4 of the 8 months

Bowler of the Year!


 This week at bowling was our roll off for  "Bowler of the Year"  It was pretty much a big deal for the Sunshine Girls league at Davis Lanes. My Sister, Marla and Char were also bowlers of the month so we were so excited for the roll off.  We were up against way good bowlers so we knew it would be tough.  I was doing OK in my first few games but in my third game I bowled  4 strikes in a row and moved to the top.  So in the last few frames it was neck and neck.  In the 10th, Chanelle was one pin ahead of me and all I needed was one to tie and two to win.  I hit a 2-3 spit on my first ball and threw it right down the middle and missed them all on my second.  Dang....... I  totally chocked!  So so close, but had an awesome time trying!

Big Night for Abbie

Proud family

Keith ,Ellen and Harper......Abbie's awesome in laws & darling niece


Her supportive husband Jake




I know pride is not a good thing but I have to admit I am so proud of this girl.  This past week she graduated from the DATC with her Licenced Practical Nursing degree.  She has worked so hard for this and can now start Weber States Registered Nursing program next week and will be finished with her RN in December.  This program is pretty much CRAZY hard.  It has been intense weekly tests, lab pass offs and clinical hours at different hospitals.  She is a smart girl who works very very hard.  She is going to make an amazing nurse and I am so proud of her!

Sweeeet 16


 Birthday Boy

Dinner at Boston's Celebrating

Ryker & Sis

Friends to celebrate!





This week Ryker turned 16! I can't believe he can drive & date, although I think he is secretly scared to death to take a girl on a date so I don't think that will be happening any time too soon. He had a wonderful day starting with an EARLY breakfast from mom, going to dinner with the family and ending the night with lots of friends for ice cream and cake!

On the Mound


Yesterday we played in a double header in Brigham City.  The team played well and Kasen pitched great.  It was a fun Saturday watching baseball!

Enjoying the Sun

Last week I was measuring some parking lots for Morgan Pavement (yes I do occasionally work).  I was in Kaysville at a church and pushing my wheel along the edge and I saw this goat out of the corner of my eye.  I thought he was so cute.  It was the first sunny day in a long time and he was out sunning on the roof of the car.  When I first spotted him he was laying down all chilled out but I startled him a bit when I took his picture.  He gave me a little chuckle!

Bowler of the Month

Two weeks ago I went to my Thursday bowling league and low and behold I bowled this score! It was awesome! I found out that with my score I got the bowler of the month for March!  In two weeks I get to play three games to determine "bowler of the Year"!  Wish me luck......wow talk about pressure!!!
For all my darling friends and family that I bowl with they know this is a big deal because really I just go to bowling for the visiting. Watch out Kristy, Marla and Char....I will have my game on1

Crazy Kid

Every time I upload pictures from my camera I find about 40 of these.  Kasen and his friends are going through this "pulling faces phase".  If  I am driving my car and look over at him in the passenger seat I usually get one out of his many, what he calls "awesome faces".  I  hope it's just a 12 year old thing even though  I must admit.....he cracks me up!
