Karson's 3rd Birthday

Karson turned three Sunday. For his birthday this year Karson wanted a playhouse. It was fun to see how excited he was when he saw it in our yard. All three of the boys loved it. The boys love going to the pool so we went to the pool Saturday as part of celebrating Karson birthday. Karson was set on a farm cake for his birthday, I had a lot of fun making it for him. I am so grateful for this boy in my life, he is such a sweetheart. He is a caring, loving, and giving little boy. 

He is growing up too fast...

Korbin 9 Months

This little boy is busy, busy, busy! Ever since he has started walking with my hands that is all the kid wants to do. He has to be outside, I seriously feel like I live outside and nothing gets done, by the end of the day I am worn out. Since this little boy likes to be outside so much I have come to find out that the boys jeep is very handy in keeping this boy entertained and happy. Korbin has such a cute personality. He loves to give kisses and growl. His growl cracks me up! I have never had a baby growl before. He has also had his two bottom teeth cut through. My baby that use to sleep through the night is now getting up three times a night. I am no longer spoiled. I am grateful his brothers are so good to play with him and try to make him happy. I have the best little boys.

Memorial Day Weekend

For Memorial Day weekend we were planning on going camping at the sand dunes with Ryan and Cassie family. Trevor came home from work early Friday to get ready to go camping, but we decided not to go, because the weather wasn't the greatest. We went up north that day instead and took the boys out to eat and than went bowling. Saturday Trevor and Grandpa Johnson took Kellen and Karson on a horse ride, they have been wanting to go for sometime and I am glad they finally got to go. Sunday we went out to Trevor's Grandpa Clair's grave. Kellen is so curious about death and what happens to people when they die. I have told him that our spirits go up to Heaven and our body stays in the ground. He than ask "What happens to our bodies in the ground?" and I told him "The bodies rot away." That whole day Kellen kept bring up that Dad's Grandpa's body was rotten. Kind of awkward, but I guess he is learning. Monday we went out to Yuba lake with Ryan and Cassie's family. For some reason in my head I thought we were going fishing, when we were actually going boating. The boys got in the water with their clothes on they had no problem with that. I had never been out there before, it's a pretty fun place to go evening if you were to hang out of the beach all day. I loved how sandy the beach was there, because I grew up going to some pretty rocky beaches in Emery County. The kids had fun running in the water and playing in the sand. Kellen and Trevor were the first ones to get one the tube. Kellen was excited until him and Trevor fell off the tube. He was terrified. He kept screaming "I am going to to drowned and die!" After that happened Ryan and Cassie talked Kaecee into getting on the tube and from then on nobody fell in the water and everyone got on the tube, we even talked Kellen into getting on again. Karson impressed me he was so brave, even after seeing his brother freak out in the water.

More playing than fishing

We have been itching to go to the mountain since it has started warming up. We took a little fishing trip one Saturday and met Grandma and Grandpa Scow and my sister Tiffany and her two kids Tyson and Shannon. I had fun catching up with my sister and Mom while Trevor and my Dad fished. The kids had fishing pulls out, but they were having more fun running around and throwing rocks in the water. Karson stayed around the fishing poles and caught a decent sized fish. Korbin kept trying to walk in the water and was mad that I didn't let him. I gave him licorice to keep him busy, so he wouldn't try to walk into the lake. We had a good day.

For Mothers Day

For a Mothers Day gift for my Mom, my family all got together to do family pictures. I can't help but think that it will be 5 years this August that my Mom was diagnosed with cancer. We found out that her cancer was at a stage 4 and they expected her to live maybe 5 years. She was scared, depressed, and didn't act like herself when we first found out. It was hard to see my Mom like that and know there was nothing I could do to help her, but pray for her. Since then miracle after miracle has happen in her life. She had a surgery a little over two years ago that had never been done before. Recovery from the surgery took a good year, but her cancer hasn't progressed since the surgery. I have seen a transformation in my Mom as the years have gone by since we found out she had cancer. I have always look up to my Mom, but this terrifying trial has molded her into the strongest and bravest person I know. I hope one day I can be as good of a person as my Mom is. She has been here for me through the hardest of times in my life and without her I would not be where I am at today. I love how loving and accepting she is with every person that comes into her life. She is never one to judge someone or gossip, she focuses on the good in people no matter who they are or what they have done to hurt her. She is a wonderful Grandma who spoils her grand kids a little to much and tries to have a good relationship with all of them. I wish I could see her more often. I cherish the times I do get to spend with her and I know the boys do too. I am continually grateful for the many miracles that have made it possible for my Mom to be in good enough health to enjoy life. She is special to me and I love her dearly. 

My little snow white, blue eyed baby. I call him the black sheep in the family, because his brothers are so dark and he is so light. He is just as handsome as his brothers though. I love this cute little guy!

I love the big brown eyes on this boy! I love this picture, other than Karson fell and hit his mouth right before pictures and gave himself a swollen lip! The photographer did the best she could to photo shop it and it looks pretty good considering what it looked like that day. He is such a handsome boy!

This boy looks more like his Dad everyday and he is just as sweet and tender hearted too. Such a handsome little guy!

Flying Kites

For FHE we took the boys to the school to fly kites. They had a blast. Korbin had more fun eating a kite, but he was one happy boy! I also love flying kites, because I have a lot of memories flying kites with my family when I was a kid.

My Baby

This little boy loves to be outside! If I am walking him around in the house the first place he goes is to the doors that go outside. He loves the little red car and I sure love him!
