Grandpa & Cooper


Even though Cooper is not my son, he is my nephew and i love that kid. Cooper is becoming more and more of a Grandpa's boy. He loves riding 4 wheelers & making popcorn with his grandpa. oh and don't worry he loves scooping up a bowl of popcorn for everyone... half of it ends up on the floor. Go grandpa!!!!

a few more





Late Easter Pic's






Greg, Margie and 8 great kids




I'll right i'll give this a try, if Loran wasn't so busy with school, i could make her do it. If I brag on all my children it would take you forever to read, lets just say they are all the best and brighest and cutest kids ever, just to prove it here are some pic's. Shain and Morgan are both busy with collage finals, Loran has been keeping busy with school also, she will be doing duel inrolement next year which means that she will be going to college as well as highschool. Austin is alway on the go, but unlike the rest of the kids, he's not ready for school to end, his vote would be for year round school. Chyanna, Paytin, Jordan and Gillian are counting down the day's untill school is over. Greg will be teaching summer school, so he'll be busy too. Me i'm always busy. That's all for now, I do have some Easter pic's that i'll put on too

Bragging

I'm not sure in what way I should brag about my kids... should I tell about their astounding cuteness that disarms any who look upon them? Should I write about how they, though normal in appearance, are inwardly superior in intelect and whit? Should I compare their physical prowess to that of an olympiad? Or, I suppose I could talk about their spiritual destiny of greatness and divinity..... Perhaps I'll just share some pictures :)

C'mon Guys...start braggin on your kids!

For your information, Saxton was asked to play on the Snow Canyon JV Baseball team! Never in the history of Snow Canyon have they ever moved a freshman up! Congrats Saxton
P.S. tell your mom to log on so we can start 'burning' her.

Also Christopher had a track meet in Hurricane and basically cleaned house in nearly every event! Congrats Christopher. If anyone has more specifics, we'd love to hear the details.

Fools!

Oh man I had a great April Fools Day! I totally got Jesse in the morning when I called him and told him our sewer had backed up into our house and was coming out all the drains. He totally freaked out and was jumping in his car to come home when I said "APRIL FOOLS!" I can always get him good because he never knows what day it is! I also short-sheeted the bed which was funny because he was soooo tired, so he finally gets ready for bed and pulls back the covers, hops on the bed and tries to stick his legs down in the sheets and they got stuck half-way down. I had been waiting all day for him to climb into bed, and the bewildered look on his face was so funny! I had to turn away because I was laughing so hard, and he was saying "What the...? Did I ...? How come....?" When he realized what I had done he said "You dork! You got me good!". But really, is the real "dork" the pranker or the prankee? I vote prankee! That sounds like cranky if you say it right, which is what Spencer was when I told him Jesse snapped his achilles tendon again and I needed him at the hospital right away. He hopped in his car and started goin' down there and he got all huffy when I sprung the "april fools" thing on him. Really, some people (spencer) should laugh at themselves more (a lot more, and really hard) and spend less time being angry (and more time loving!).
