Grady is Walking!!!

Sorry---I know I am on post overload but, today I got some good shots of Grady walking. He is taking lots of steps as long as he knows there is something to grab on to across the way.

They grow so fast!!!

County Fair

Last night we went to the Salt Lake County Fair. Hudson is getting so brave, he runs to go on all of the rides including riding a pony. Last year he didn't like the thought of doing anything "scary". This year he loves to try new things! We went with family/friends Amie, Tim, Gage & Madi. We always have fun with them and Hudson loves to have a buddy to hang with!

YEE HAW!

Grady kept saying "weeeeee..."!

Pine View

Every year we go to Pine View Reservoir. I love it because it is camping and there is also a lake so we can go swimming and beach it. Here are a few pictures that are from my mom's camera. I am an idiot and deleted the ones from my memory card before saving them anywhere (i will be beating myself up for that for a long time).

We always love it when a lot of people come with us! We had peeps from both of our families and my friend Angi & gang!

This is Hudson's cousin Cannon, they always have a good time doing boy stuff!

Jon's Parents!
Angi, Eric & Jerzie (who is having a good time!!!)

I had an awsome picture on my camera of this naked bum, but as you know it's gone forever! So we get my moms version.

I love this pic!!

These ARE my cowboy boots!!!

Hudson got all geared up in his cowboy stuff and he realized that he needed to put some cowboy boots on. I reminded him that his boots were too small but he insisted that he had other ones that fit him. He went to his room and this is what he showed up wearing. I told him that those weren't cowboy boots but he told me "these ARE my cowboy boots".

I always laughed when I was younger at those kids that wore boots with shorts and other crazy outfits, it never crossed my mind that I would end up having one of those dorky kids. But, you gotta let them be them right!?

My 4's

1) Four places that I go to over and over: My Moms, Walmart, The bathroom & to bed!

5) Four people to tag: Kaysee, Jody, Charmaine & Christa!

Copy & paste then put this in your blogs!!!

Recent photos of my kids

I Got these pictures taken in June when Grady turned 1.

They both have mohawks. I wanted tattoos that said "mom" but this is the closest I could find with the classic heart with the arrow.

I really don't think that I would know what to do with girls! I think that I really want one and then I talk to friends that have them and it reminds me that I am not ready for all the girly emotions and moodiness!

Fun on the 4th

Here are a few pictures from the 4th of July! We went to Jon's aunt Janet's house for a BBQ and then we watched the fireworks from her backyard that is right next to Murray park. It is a great view without having to fight the crowds.

Congratulations Tren

Congratulations to my brother "T" and his girlfriend Chylie on their engagement!!! They got engaged last night after a year of dating! Love you guys!!!

Summer Fun

We are definitely enjoying the summer. Hudson has finally overcome some of his fears and decided that he can now pedal his bike and go under water when we go swimmimg!! But he has my stubborness for sure. He will do things when "he" wants to do them and will not let others persuade him.

Grady is also enjoying swimming. He loves the water and does not care that the water gets in his face unlike the other child!!!

Crappy unexpected day

So I went into work yesterday like any other work day. But this day would be the day I would be let go out of the blue due to the infamous "economy". This was totally unexpected and I was not ready for it. Right now I really don't know how to feel. One minute i'm sad and the next I am pissed off. I had worked for this company for 7 plus years and thought I would be there for a lot longer. I think that is all I have to say about that right now....
