This year I got this crazy idea that it would fun for Ellie and I to coach Ray's soccer team.
It was fun, and we even had some warm days, however it was CRAZY too!

One good thing is that Parker Mason, Lynn & Theresa son played on our team,
so we got to visit with them every Tues. and Sat. while the kids played.

Bekah in yellow, played again this year and did a great job!
She played goalie and forward, and has decided that she likes Soccer again!

Smores with the Arnold Family

Our kids love to hang around with Sarah, Spencer, Shayla and Andrew.

They are such good role models for my kids!

Spring Break Fun!

Trissy's Wedding!

Our good friend Trissy, from Rendezvous got married over Spring Break.
The kids love her because she loves to spend time with them, and take them places. I wonder if her new husband Mitch realizes how many adopted nieces and nephews he's just inherited.

Playing in the Legacy Fountain!

One day we met the Osguthrope family in SLC and took the kids to play in the fountain.

Ray, Bekah, Weston, Gunner, and Ellie
I'm so glad it was a nice, warm day.

The kids had a blast running through the water.

Bekah=pure joy!

Cheri and I had a good time just watching and visiting!

Spring Pictures!

The kids really needed new pictures, so I made an effort to take some.

Ellie~12

Weston~10

Bekah~almost 8Ray~5
The pictures turned out great, Ellie and Weston did a great job and I only had to take 2-3 to get a good one. Bekah and Ray were a different story. Bekah just kept getting sillier and sillier, doing her little poses, which just made Ray laugh, instead of smile. I finally found one of each that would work.

1st Cook Out of the Season!

We had a hot dog/brats roast on Sat. night. at Chris and Tiesha's new house.

Of course we also roasted marshmallows.
