Random....

Here are just a few random pictures from the last couple of weeks. Ashlee and Nicole had a dance competition in Malad and Grandma and Grandpa sent them both flowers.


They both did excellent on their solo routine along with many other girls from Malad.

Next we have Alexus. She has spent the last couple of weekends with us and we just love her so much. She says they cutest things. Friday at the highschool rodeo she had been eating cheetos, I told her she had a "cheeto face". She looked right at me and said....that's because I have been eating cheetos!!! LOL!! It was so cute. Didn't get a picture of the cheetos but here are a few others when we were getting ready for church last week!!

Wrestling Dinner

Last week, we attended the Wrestling Dinner with Kyle. Malad Wrestling team had a great year, winning every tournament they attended, and yes this includes district and State. Malad took State and this was the first time in Malad High School history. Kyle felt bad he was not part of the team the whole year due to his accident but he wrestled enough matches to letter. The coach and his wife also made plaques for each young man and it was a fun night. Kyle was thrilled that he letter and looks forward to next year!!!

Preston Dance Competition

Ashlee and Nicole had a team dance competition last Saturday. Their Hip-Hop dance received a Judges Choice award and their production number titled "One World" received a high score award. It was a lot of fun!! Here are a few pictures!!


And I saved the best picture for last. You know the look you get from your daughter when you do something embarrassing or stupid and they look at you and say "Mother!!" Well, I just happen to capture this on camera at the dance competition!! I didn't think my impersonation of "Flash Dance" was that bad!!! Just kidding!! Not sure what I did for the look but oh well, got it on film!!

Easter Cookout!!!

Well, Easter just wasn't the same without the pickled eggs at Grandma's and having a hotdog out by the shop....so we had to do our own. It was later in the afternoon and Ashlee decided we needed to do the traditional hotdog and marshmellow roast. It was fun and we enjoyed the day together.




Of course we had to find an "Easter Bunny"...gotta love brothers!!!

Ashlee's First Solo Competition 2009

Ashlee had her first solo competition this year in Blackfoot. There was about 70 entries and she was number 6. Good to get it over with early. She did awesome!!! She was awarded Queen in her division and received very high marks with wonderful comments to help her grow and learn. We are so proud of her!!!



We had Alexus for the weekend so she needed a picture with Ashlee!!! She was so cute with all the dancers and loved watching Ashlee.

Happy Birthday Ashlee!!!!

My baby is turning 13 today!!! Happy Birthday Baby Girl!! Yes, we still call her baby girl along with, Blonde Bomber and Ashy Bum. We are so proud of all her accomplishments and the wonderful young woman that she is. She is so helpful and kind, not to mention beautiful and just full of fun!!



You might ask why the hat and blanket...well we are on "spring" break but it doesn't feel much like spring. We are still hangin' out at home watching it snow!!!
