Kelton and Kel's Joined Birthday Party

Kelton and Kel- Birthday Boys


Is there ever a party outdoors, when a child stays completely clean?











Kelton and Kel had a joined birthday party today out at Canaan. There was a great deal of 4 wheeler riding, yummy hotdogs, chips, baked beans and pasta salad. The kids had fun breaking a pinata and eating cupcakes. We had a great time visiting with one another. Here are just a few pictures that represent the good time that we had today.

Casek's Kindergarten Patriotic Program



















Casek's Kindergarten class put on a Patriotic Program last night. It was at his elementary school. He looked so cute up in the front singing about our country. The class sang about five to ten songs about America and their teachers narrated in between. Casek is doing really well in Kindergarten and was real excited about his program. It was fun to see him up in the front. He is growing up so fast. The gym was pretty packed and the lighting wasn't very good, so my pictures didn't turn out as well as I would have liked. I only got to video tape one song of him singing too. Beaver has three kindergarten classes, so there are a lot of students. By the time you pack all their parents and grandparents in a little elementary gym, you don't get to see all that well. I got to sit on the inside of an aisle, so I got to lean over enough to see Casek better. Doesn't he look cute?

A Visit to the Cemetery

While John was with Grandma in Milford, I took our children to the cemetery to reminisce about Grandpa. We had a good time talking about what we remembered and loved about him. Each one of us took an item that represented Grandpa to us, and then shared it with the rest of the family.
We took a couple bouquets of flowers to display at his grave.

We found that as one memory was told another was remembered.

We ended our visit by eating apple pie; Grandpa's favorite.


HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY TRACY!
(February 9)

You've had a birthday; shout "Hooray!"
We want to sing to you today.
One year older and wiser, too,
Happy birthday to you.

Happy late birthday Tracy. I just happened across your birthday on Face Book. Sorry that I wasn't on top of things for your special day. I truly hope it was a fantastic one! Much love.

In Loving Memory...Husband, Father, Grandfather, Great-Grandfather

I'm not sure that words can express all that I feel about the Father of my Husband or the Grandfather of my children. We love you Dad and will always remember everything that you were and stood for. I tried to express just a little bit on my blog, so if you'd like you may check it out.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LONI SUE!


This day is such a special one;
It's birthday time for you.
We'd really like to celebrate
Your happy day with you.
Zip-a-dee-ay and heigh-dee-ho,
Here's something we can do.
We'll sing a song that we all know,
Happy Birthday to you!

Harrison's Blue and Gold Banquet

Last night Harrison had his Blue and Gold Banquet for scouts. Each scout was to take a cake for the cake walk at the end (no auction anymore). The theme this year was USA. The scouts were supposed to pick a state and decorate a cake that represents that state. Harrison picked Texas, due to all the cowboys. We made a cowboy hat cake. When his name was drawn out for the cake walk, he chose a cake that represented Alaska. We ate Sloppy Joe's for dinner and had a great time!

Jen and Grandma watching the team warm up.










Grandma at the Jazz Game!!!




Jen and Grandma went to Salt Lake on Tuesday, February 17th, to watch the Jazz play Memphis. We all worried that they would have to cancel the trip because it was storming, but as luck would have it, the weather lifted and they were able to leave Milford shortly after lunch. They got to Salt Lake early enough to eat and then got to the Energy Solutions Arena early. The Jazz won 117 over 99. The two hardy fans got back to Milford about 1:30 a.m.
