RIBS and DONNY






Donny came to visit this weekend. Mainly because he loves me and my cooking but had the excuse since he wanted to witness Rob being put into our new bishopric as 1st counselor. We are so glad when Donny comes. We love him. I made Ribs, Baked Potatoes, Fruit Salad, Homemade bread and Cream pie. For Donny though I had to make something chocolate. It's tradition! Brownies with Bluebell. I think Donny went home to buy a BBQ Grill after this dinner. He was moaning throughout the whole dinner in pure happiness! LOL SO I included the recipes here in this post. Thanks to my best bud Rebecca for the rib recipe. It is truly the best!

DYSON! It's AWESOME!!





Krista was the first one to use our new vacuum. Our hoover was on it's last leg. Even put together with duck tape for the last few months. This weekend the wheel fell off so we couldn't wait any longer. WOW what a difference a DYSON makes!

ENJOY Today's entry...

DAY 3 - Spring Break at the BEACH




We have been trying to make every day of Spring Break fun so today we went to the BEACH. CRAZY crowded, but worth it. The girls loved it. I got so sunburned and I am in pain this morning as I am posting this message. We went to G-ma's too. Saw the new calves and chicken. Travis was glad to see us since he has been locked up in the house doing a movie project. WE LOVE HIM! After we got home we showered and complained about our burns. Wade isn't a fan of the beach so he stayed home and did the yard...YAY FOR ME!

Day 2 - Spring Break (RELAX, BIKE, Sidewalk CHALK)



My girls can have fun just being together. They are sooo fun and cute. Bike riding, sidewalk chalk, swings, park and lots of water. They are enjoying everyday.

DAY 1 of Spring Break - ZOO DAY

BEST PANCAKES EVER!!!




Rob religiously wakes up every Saturday morning and makes home-made pancakes. Sometimes they are in fun shapes (Like the kids ages on their birthdays), and sometimes they are plain, but each and every way they are delish! We love them so much and no one can seem to make them better. The kids love waking up to bacon and pancakes. Thought I'd post this recipe for all of you who have stayed over and been lucky enough to have these wonderful disks of happiness!! LOL - Enjoy! PS. Tamra taught me about adding coconut to the pancakes...SO GOOD. Thanks Tam Tam.

Bye Bye Birdie...Krista's Jr High Musical




Babies Babies and more Babies



Ashna came down to visit while Chad worked in Houston. I was SO VERY happy to finally see little Addie/Adelyn. She is the best baby and as sweet as her mama! We took loads of pictures. Patrice came down and brought her little cousin Emma to play with and then Theresa (our first cousin) brought her baby Lexi down as well. We had a week full of babies and a load of fun. We hated to see them leave and so look forward to another visit.

District and State Competition for Wade



We have been SO busy with so many things, but mostly Wade. He just went two weekends in a row competing at Districts and State. He won Districts in Humorous Interpretation (2nd year in a row) which got him qualified for National Competition in June/Alabama. Then this past weekend he competed at State and placed 3rd in H.I. This is a huge accomplishment for him. Texas is the 2nd largest competition in the Nation. He also went to Harvard in Boston and competed there Nationally and place top 20. We are so proud of him and look forward to all the fun in the summer, and of course, his senior year. GO WADE!

Valentines Day 2009



As you can tell from this post Leanna has a boyfriend. He is a wonderful boy named Aaron. He is beyond sweet to her. They have been best friends forever. He brought her roses for Valentines day and we went to the Stake Dance. February has been full of fun for our family. The girls had loads of fun dressing up and taking pictures at the park and at home. Love, Love, Love these girls so much and I'm having a blast being their mom.

Drivers License for WADE





Yes it's true. Wade can drive. I haven't updated my blog in SO long because I recently got addicted to Facebook. I know, I know, what kind of time do I have for that! So, without further wait I thought it was time to update my blog for those of you who are crazy and don't use facebook. I deleted the important information for his protection...thanks uncle craig.
