Vegas and football

Bryson has waited all year to play Flag Football! I still can't believe I let him play seeing I swore my son wouldn't play but I caved last year let him play. Last year wasn't really football. Lets just say after playing this year my Hat goes off to the coach this year! He was learning the real plays and playing! He did so good! Last year I don't think I can count as a 1st year. Daddy and Bryson are trying BEG me to allow him to play tackle since he would be on the line seeing for 8 year old they weight cut off is 76 lbs... Bryson is 88! SO from what people tell me is he will be safer adn thats where I want him! BUt still TACKLE.... K they can beg a LITTLE LONGER....


Over UEA we decided to go go down to vegas where it was warmer and go swimming. Our friends had a time share so we got a pretty good deal! It was an awesome resort! Way at the other end of the strip! We did go down to to the strip 1 day out of the 4! We saw the shark reef, the dolphins, pink flamingos, the fountians, M and M store( they thought that was christmas)! We went to the outlets got a couple good deals. Ended up going to a ROSS on the strip and Daddy got a pair of Doc Martin boots for 24 bucks! THey had lots of fun and they ask if we can go back to vegas. The only Rule is.... You do the stuff on the strip before 1 PM!

Potty Training

As I ventured out to this is stressful thing called potty training, it hasn't been hard but it hasn't been easy! Dallyn said he had to go pee so he did and he sits there till he is done. I turn around this is what i found my poor baby! Potty training is hard work!

School time

Well its is not official that we have a 1st and 2nd grader. They have grown oh so fast and we are just trying to hang on to our little baby Dallyn (which isn't a baby so much but we still think so). Dallyn is so sad to have his brother and sister gone for the day. We hope we can survive!
Some things that we did this summer:

Went to the gym alot to go swimming and to workout. The kids love their day care and they also take the older 2 rock climbing while mom and dad can work out!
* We went to cowabunga alot also. Dallyn still hates the slides but the older 2 love them so we usually let the older 2 loose and whoever goes is with the baby!

*Weekly swimming up to Mommy's old young woman's leader pool. Kids love it there cause she has a diving board!
*Camping up at Joe's reservoir that was the coolest lake up by price. About the same size as Deer creek but there were only 4 boats on the lake. Its was awesome! Kids had lots of fun riding bikes all around

* The zoo I think at least 5 times. Lilly favorite animal is still Zuri! If she could Zuri would be living at our house!

*Ttour of the coppermine. I have always wanted to take the kids there and Now I finally did!

*Incredible pizza! I recommend not going there and wasting your money!
*The famous Lagoon! Kids loved it but we would personally save our money and go to Disneyland ANYDAY! Mom had a couple issues there wtih some people! Mom actually thought there was going to be a fight between her and a big bubba about Lilly bug! Needless to say he was trying to get a worker to unlock a ride and stick another stranger kid with Lilly just so he could go on the ride! That didn't FLY with mom and she was about to fight him LOL!

* Most important Lilly turned 6! So we had a birthday party for her went to cowabunga and to her favorite restaurant IHOP! Then had her cousin over to play!

I think that is all that happened But I swear we were gone like everyday. Mom is sure ready for some normalcy but then again what is that.

Now we have sylvan learning, swimming lessons, the start of dance (jazz, tap and ballet) and Flag football, along with speech! I don't think normalcy is in our calender anytime soon until it probably yes the horrible dreaded word SNOW comes!

I will try to add pictures of camping and everythign else I don't know where they are. I think they are o the other computer!

Impact Fitness Wear

If any of our friends are big into fitness and great workout clothes you must try

http://www.impactfitnesswear.com/

Yes they are a little more but I just bought my first out fit and I am dying for more! I just happened to go to the open house on friday becuae the girls at our gym said the proceeds go to help Bunny's family (the cyclist that hit while on her bike). I said well thats a good reason to go and I will go for one of my instructors and my young womens leader both were best friends with her.

So if you are ever in the mood to buy some great workout clothes go to there website! They are ALL so cute!

May

Lilly has had another dance recital. She has grown so much this year we are so proud of her. She did so good on her dances she took Tap and ballet. This coming year is Tap, ballet and jazz. She will have so much fun! Lilly is our little reader and is reading at almost a 2nd grade level. I wish I could slow her down cause she is about to pass bryson :o/ She is getting so excited that she is going to turn 6!
I have asked lilly is she wanted to do cheerleading this fall..... her response... " I want to play football like bryson! Oh she can wish I will let her play with big brother!

Bryson also played flag football for the 1st year. Mom finally gave in and let him play. But the rule is flag only! Daddy and Bryson hope sometime Mommy will cave and let him tackle. But he will play flag in the fall and he is so excited! He has done so good in school always now 15/10 and his bonus words I tell ya are not easy. This week on is apostrophe!

Bryson passing the pass!


Dally oh Dallyn is the terror that we so desperately love! He has now started saying 2 word sentences. I don't know what it is but why are our kids delayed on speech. He is coming along good though. I love when he says "Habba day" or "one minute" its just so cute! He is also now LOVES to cry for mommy. Mommy leavin him at daycare at the gym, nursery or anywhere is a COMPLETE melt down. He will now just go to relief society! I guess I can't wait now till he is in sun beams so he will know he is in primary wih the other two!

RUN DUCK RUN AWAY from dallyn!



All and all I have been bad about blogging which is bad. I wish I could do it weekly since this is basically like our scrapbook. Right now we are just working in the yard and a little relandscaping from what the previous owners did. We ripped out 10 rose bushes and there are still 5 in my yard. I am sorry for all you rose bush lovers but I hate getting poked! We are taking out the bark in the playground and putting in the rubber bark. I would never recommend plain bark ever in a swing set. Its gets nasty and bugs and ehh I honestly can't believe I let my children play in it. I can't wait till its all done!

I have asked lilly is she wanted to do cheerleading this fall..... her response... " I want to play football like bryson!

Just ready for school to be out! 3 weeks left. UGGGG!

Where have we been?

What Have we been up too......Bryson had his 1st grade program for grandparents day, of course I started crying some, he was just so cute and we have come SO FAR!



Also, sleddding in April, Mom ran the Jordan School District 5K and also the Salt Lake 5K. But for the most fun that we have done was A little trip to DISNEYLAND! The kids had a BLAST! They loved Thunder Mountain railroad and almost ever ride. Bryson even Loved California screamer! Yes my 7 year old went on that, there was no way that you could get me on that ride! More pictures to come! We were very lucky to have our niece join us! It was alot of fun and the kids are already asking to go back... We have only been home 2 days!!!!!!! I think mommy and Daddy are in for it till we go back! I hope that Lagoon will do for a year or two!

Easter

We had a wonderful Easter spending it with our familys and watching general conference! I believe all my Easter pictures are on my other camera. If i remember I will post pictures!

Family Night

One of the stores around here had Twister on sale and then there was a coupon. I think ended up picking it up for $3. For family night we played it one night. The kids loved it!

Mischievous Dallyn

As I was running one day this is what where I found Dallyn after I was done! This is why I have joined a gym! It was all shampoo He was just washing himself... To bad it wasn't tear fear though!

Where is dallyn?

This is the number one question right now in our house "where is dallyn"

The answer is ALWAYS outside with his dog. He goes out and plays even if it is 24 degrees out.. He sneaks out the dog door and goes out with NO SHOES on too when its cold. But now thats it is getting warm its no big deal!

He loves is dog!
