On the way to Blanding Utah

We went to San Juan for our last region football game yesterday and these are a few of the things we saw on the way. It sure is beautiful there. But I would not want to live there because it is in the middle of nowhere. Ha ha. We lost the game but we took 2ND in our region San Juan is in 1st place.

S.S.

It is kind of hard to see but this is a pic of the S.S. on the mountain. The FFA lights them up at halftime during the homecoming game!

Homecoming Dates ~ Back in Black (theme)

Dane and Cindy ~ Aaron and Kaylee ~ Kortney and Andrea ~ Dana and Luke

For the date they took the girls three legged bowling. They tied bandannas around their legs and bowled as couples. Then went to get a treat at the dairy. After they went home to get beautiful. For dinner they met at Kortney's house where his mom made them an awesome dinner! Then they headed to the dance. After that they came to our house to enjoy a chocolate fountain. Yummy. Then back to Kort's for a flick. It was Dane's first dance and he loved every minute of it!!!

Hangin out

This is what Jacob & Bri and Brynn & Landon did for Homecoming night. They came over and helped me do a test run on the Chocolate Fountain He He! Then since Bri and Brynn are not 16 yet. They hung out and watched a movie!

The Parade

This is the girls watching the parade and the football team on the fire trucks! Justin is driving the first truck! Go Rams! Beat Beaver!! * we Won Beaver 15 to 0* You can see Dane's #6 on his Jersey plus he is wearing sunglasses and Landon is #33 (he is smiling at Brynn) Ahhh Cute!

The Girls(the dogs)

These are the other two girls in our lives. Cotton's children. Zoe is 7 years old, and Sophie is 3 years old. One fat and one thin. One lazy and one really hyper. You can guess which one is which.

Homecoming week

Dane is big on dressing up!! So when he has the chance to do it he does. The 1st day was discombobulated day (What huh)? Ya lol The 2nd was duct tape day. The 3rd was Character day. The 4th was blast from the past. Tomorrow is spirit day and he will wear his jersey again. Brynn on the other hand thinks she is way too cool to dress up Ha ha.

Home of a Ram!

The Cheerleaders came around this week to decorate the Varsity Football players rooms and put up these signs for Homecoming week. They threw candy all around Dane's room and hung crate paper.

Wrestling

This is what happens every time I get on the computer. It starts with Justin coming in then Garrett shows up to wrestle dad, after a minute Garrett yells for help and in comes Dane. Both the boys try to prove that they are stronger than Dad is. Ha Ha not yet boys. **Note take a good look at the pic there is a tennis ball in Justin's hand. Sophie is obsessed with balls and will sit there until Justin throws it no matter what is going on around her. Lol

~Friends~

These are two of my best friends. Loreen Chisholm and Emmie Morgan. For the past several years on our birthdays we plan trips to Provo or Salt Lake. We let the birthday girl decide where and what she wants to do. On this trip it was Emmie's birthday so she wanted to go shopping (of course) because we all love to shop. Then lunch and a movie. Emmie gets to choose who comes with us so she asked her two daughters Christien and Casey to join in on the fun!! We hit two malls for shopping. Then went to a restaurant called Carrabas yum!! Then we went to see the movie Eagle Eye! I was way excited because this is the movie I have been really wanting to see!! I love these ladies we are 3 peas in a pod. We love getting together, they are the kind of Friends that you laugh and cry with.. you know those kind of friends. Thanks for a great time girls. Love ya!!!

Emmie's Birthday Trip

Dane's goals

Well this last Sunday Dane got to bless the sacrament for the first time. Wow as a mom listening to him give the prayer was a spiritual thing. I always think "I hope I am a good mom and teaching my kids the right things". This is just one of those times you think maybe something I am doing is right. Yesterday we went to parent teacher conference with Dane's homeroom teacher and she asked him his plans for the future and without a blink he said after I graduate I am going on a misson then to BYU for Engineering. One great thing about Dane is he knows where he is heading in life and has great goals. But I think he was born that way not because of my influence. ha ha.. Well I am grateful for a son who honors his priesthood.

Today I took Brynn to get her braces off!!! Finally, after 4 long years! I sent Justin this pic of her and he said she looks like a college girl!! Oh no!! He is worried he will have to beat the boys off now even more!! But she does love having them off!!!

No More Braces!!!!

The Worst Day!!!

Today I spent the whole day cleaning the house. It has been hard to deep clean while I work. Plus we go to football games 4 nights a week!! So I got up early and started, we moved furniture around so it was one of those cleaning days!!!!!!!! After I finished I got in the shower then went to run my hands through my hair and my wedding ring snagged!!!!!!!! OH NO MY DIAMOND IS MISSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So I started to panic looking all over the floor in every room. Justin ripped the shower drain apart.... cause I am crying......16 years and nothing has ever happened like this:( So after hours of looking I finally give up the search!!! I was doing laundry today so I went to put the washer into the dryer and as soon as I was finished I looked down and there it was Shinning up at me!!!!!!!!! Yeah I think it got washed it was so sparkling!!! So my worst day ended up one of the BEST DAYS EVER!!!!!!

Cindy and Dane!

Popped the big question!!

Last night we had a big dance party at the firehouse for Dane's 16th birthday! Tons of kids came to dance the night away after winning the football game!! To top the night off Dane asked his girlfriend Cindy to Homecoming!! He sang her part of there song in front of all the party goers. It was so cute!! Then gave her roses and asked her the big Question. She said YES!!! Dane is so Brave and sweet!! Congrats Dane!!! Have fun at Homecoming!

Dane is 16 today!!!

Man I feel old. Its a funny thing when your oldest child keeps getting older. You feel like you are still young but the truth is your not:( I now live with two men instead of one!! To look at Dane is really different lately, He looks like a man. The way he acts and just his all around look. I think is that my baby?? Nope not anymore he is growing up!:'( ~ Happy Birthday Boo Boy We love You!!!~

Super Star!!

We are so proud of Dane. He works so hard at football. Dane starts Varsity for the Offensive Line as Tackle. Plus he plays the whole game for the J.V. team. The Varsity Coach was telling our local paper all about our star players and Dane was the only Sophomore mentioned in the piece. But they have him listed as a Junior ha ha GO BOO BOY!!

Go Dane!!

These pics are from the pep assembly today. The cheerleaders called all the football players down and put blindfolds on them and then told them to get down on one knee. They told them to guess which cheerleader was going to kiss them on the cheek. Then to make it funny they brought all the football players moms in to give them a kiss instead of the cheerleaders!! It was Fun. Lol Dane is # 56 on the right of the pic.

KiSS KISS!!

You Need a Blindfold Ha ha #56

Dane # 56 Captain for J.V. The only Sophomore too!
