Happy Fathers Day!

Walk a Little slower, Daddy." said a little child so small.
I'm following in your footsteps and I don't want to fall.

Sometimes your steps are very fast, sometimes they're hard to see;
So walk a little slower Daddy, for you are leading me.

Someday when I'm all grown up, You're what I want to be.
Then I will have a little child who'll want to follow me.

And I would want to lead just right, and know that I was true;
So, walk a little slower, Daddy, for I must follow you!!

Our family is very blessed to have such great fathers in it. I want them to know how much we love and appreciate all they do. I am also grateful for Rob for the great husband and father he is to my children. Happy Father's day to all of the fathers.

Happy Birthday Sassy Hallie Kate!

Hallie Kate is 2 today! She is such a blessing to our family. She amazes me how girly she is having two brothers. She has turned into a little chatter box lately. Her first word besides mom and dad was shoes proceeded by sassy. The sassy thing has just stuck as one of her many nicknames. We asked her if she wanted a baby for her birthday and she said,"No, I need a purse".
Things That Are Totally Hallie At 2 :
*Anything pink in the house she thinks is hers
*Loves Dora, Barbie and Disney Princesses, and Hello Kitty
* I asked her favorite food and she said cake. She is not the best eater so I would say mac and cheese and spaghetti were what she eats best and she does love her some fruit.
*She loves to sing with her brother Joey (that is her name for Jonah).
* Daddy's nickname for Hallie is Keeters and I call her a little bit of everything (nice name's though come on). The boys call her Sassy or Cakers.
*She has a well known smile that everyone one who knows Hallie knows her princess smile. (don't worry I will post it later).
*She loves to dance.
*She loves to be tickled in fact she begs to be tickled.
* She loves her toes to be painted,(she asks for it when she gets out of the bath).
* She loves her brothers so much!
* She hates to see people leave especially mommy and daddy.
* At night she loves to talk to us with her nose plugged.
*Loves Coke (she only gets little tastes). She always says, "Mommy I tirsty I need a coke".
*When you give her milk and it is white she will bring you back to the fridge and insist that it have chocy in it.
*She loves her dog she calls Buno (Bruno).
* She loves to play with her friends. Her best pal is lella (Ella)
There are so many cute things about miss Hallie. This is only to name a few. We love her so much! Happy Birthday!

Jonah's Visit To Page

Jonah stayed in Page after we left on Memorial Day. He stayed with his Nana and Tots for a week all by himself. They said he did really well and he had tons of fun. He was of course spoiled rotten. He went fishing, bowling, he got to go to work with tots and drive a loader and much more. He said his favorite thing was going bowling. We would talk to him on the phone every night. He always asked to talk to Mackay. Mackay would get on the phone and Jonah would tell him about everything he was doing and Mackay would say, " No fair you get everything". Jonah replied by saying, "What Mackay are you jealous?". It was kind of funny. When my dad told Jonah that Friday that he would be going home on Saturday Jonah took my dad to the drawer he had been using for his clothes and said, "look Tots I don't have to leave I still have more clean shirts." Needless to say he was not that excited to come home because he was having a lot of fun. We sure did miss the little booger though and it is good to have him home.

Jer Bomb's All Graduated

Can you believe it my little bro is all graduated? I am almost 9 years older than him and so it makes me feel old (now I know how my parents feel j/k). He played baseball for Dixie High School in St. George. He was a pitcher and played first base. They got to play in the state championships this year and so he did not get to walk with his class and they did not know when his ceremony would be. So we unfortunately did not make it to the graduation ceremony but we did still get to be at the lunch my mom had for him. He is a good kid and he will go far. We are so proud of him! He is such an example to us and our kids. We do not call him Peter "Priesthood" for nothing. He should be proud of that name.

Memorial Day Camp Out!

We went to Page for Memorial Day weekend. We got a tone of rain. It was the most rain Page has seen at one time in a long time. It washed away roads and flooded peoples houses a little it was crazy. We still went out to the lake though. It did not rain as much out there thank goodness. The boys camped out with Tata at the lake and had a blast. Hallie and I came into town for the nights with Nana and Mike, Sophie and Ava. The boys did some four wheeling and some fishing. Jonah caught a carp (garbage eating fish) that weighed about 3lbs. They of course threw that one back, but he had a blast catching it. Robert and Mackay built a sand castle or rainbow bridge castle that was pretty cool. Hallie had fun feeding the ducks and swimming with her totie. She really became attached to him this trip. She wanted to go everywhere with him. Also this trip was the first time we met Ava (my stepsister Sophia and Mikes baby). She is so cute! We went home on Monday and Tata and Nana followed us to St. George to see Tricia and Hunter who were there for Jeremy's graduation. Grammie and Papa had a lunch in to celebrate Jer Bomb graduating. After that we headed home and little Jonsey got to go back to Page with Nana and Tots to stay the week. We miss that little stinker!

Happy Mutrz Day!

The Saturday before Mothers day I was banned from the garage. Mackay said that he was hard at work on a special surprise for me. He had made 2 gifts for me. He just had to give me one before Mothers day. The card was so cute he put on it, "Happy Mutrz day frum Mackay". I opened it and was like oh thank you and I had to do one of those polite, "well what is it buddy?". He was like, " I know you hate bugs and so I made you a fly swatter". It was made of popsicle sticks. Then I got to looking at it and yeah it really looked like one. This left totally curious to see what was in the next one. Mother's day morning I get up and they all great me with gifts in the kitchen. I open Mackay's gift and again I had to do the, 'This is great what is it?" This time he said it was a fan that I could take to his baseball games so that I did not get hot. What a thoughtful little tike! So cute and he made things that he knew his mommy needed it just shows how well he knows me. Jonah on the other hand made me something that he loves and that was a sword again out of popsicle sticks. Robert took them out to pick something out for me as well. He went to the tanning salon because I am always saying how white I am. The boy's did not like that idea so much. When Robert drove up to the salon Mackay says, " Dad what I want to get her is not her we need to go to Wal-Mart. So they go to Wal-Mart. Mackay insists on a Nintendo DS game and he picked out Cooking Mamma. So funny. I love my family so much and I would never change the chance to be a mother to my three wonderful children. I am also so grateful for my mother and all she does for me. I am also thankful for the wonderful wife and step mom that my dad found for us. I can't forget my mother-in-law I am thankful for her and the charming son she raised to be the best husband I could ask for. I could go on forever. But I guess I just want to say Happy Mother's day to all the mothers out there!
