We came home from our camp out and I got a new job (same company just new position during normal daytime hours) so I had two weeks to get several things wrapped up with my current job, get a sitter arranged for Matt and Jake ready to start school. I started my new job on August 15th and Jake started school as a 1st grader that same week. We have really been enjoying getting to spend time all together and have been adjusting to the new routine. We felt like we were starting to settle in really well and then we had a surprise, Scott was called to be the 2nd counselor of our Bishopric, WOW! They just set him apart yesterday. We are so grateful for his willingness to serve and that the Lord felt that this is where we are needed. We know that all of our blessing come for our Father In Heaven and we feel so blessed. I will try to keep up better the last 6 weeks or so have just been so crazy. We love you all and we are so grateful to have you in our lives...MelindaLouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05192716387653483290noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551784566852041375.post-7125368903276330102011-09-05T10:19:00.000-07:002011-09-05T10:24:43.778-07:0024th of July Fireworks & Hancock ReunionWe were so excited to finally see some real fireworks!!! We don't get many at home because of the dry conditions and lot's of trees to burn. They were so fun, we got to watch them with my Mom & Sisters family. We then headed out to our annual family reunion camp out. We had beautiful weather and lot's of peace and quiet it was so nice to get away and spend sometime with my Grandma & Grandpa. My folks & Sisters family then came up to spend a couple of days with us. We did some relaxing, Scott built a swing for the "kids", we did some crafts, a little sight seeing, cut some wood, and way to much good food as usual.

It is such a great community, we had a good time wandering downtown, we toured the Brigham Young Winter Home I loved all the antiques who know they were making waffels in the early to mid 1800s, I saw an early style barbie doll, some great furniture, the chair Brigham made him self and the bed was his as well so cool I loved it (Our guide did get a little hahah long winded but he had some wonderful stories, then we took the boys to the splash pad and the little water stream in the square and the kids got to put their feet in and cool off, we were having a great time and then, Matt decided to take a dive in (on accident as he was trying to go around someone) and tore his face up poor kid was so upset and pretty scraped and bruised up and had a chunk missing out of his eye lid I felt so bad for him. I decided to figure out how bad it was and asked if he was good enough to ride the Merry Go Round and yep he was, he still needed lot's of lovin' but was ready to move on and was a pretty good trooper the rest of the trip. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjurYlcDlLjLeT-k-a-FjES-EA1nGgFWK78lD9GiSy5CuDPi7p_1kTDBzko8cjZapdatXR1rw2xDCO7FPYTkw_PIa_exEJgchMEGTZkOlq_VsaI-TiSNapbF7YZvva0wW4UZZ4N4C2HuhE/s1600/7-19-11+182.JPG"><img style="float:left;

Jake is such a sweet kid. We are so blessed to have him as part of our family. I love his imagination, and that even when he isn't excited about doing something he will still do it when I ask. I love how he plays with his brother and it is so fun to hear him read and to see him write. He is always good for a hug for his momma and loves to come in and wake me up 1st thing in the morning tell me he loves me and ask if we can snuggle. Thanks for coming to our family Jake, we love you.<br /><br /><div><embed src="http://widget-1d.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="l" wmode="transparent" flashvars="cy=bb&il=1&channel=792633534440932125&site=widget-1d.slide.com" style="width:400px;height:320px" name="flashticker" align="middle"></embed><div style="width:400px;text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=792633534440932125&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-1d.slide.com/p1/792633534440932125/bb_t024_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=792633534440932125&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-1d.slide.com/p2/792633534440932125/bb_t024_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide2.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=792633534440932125&map=F" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-1d.slide.com/p4/792633534440932125/bb_t024_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide42.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a></div></div>MelindaLouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05192716387653483290noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551784566852041375.post-56884837166190635212011-07-03T20:49:00.000-07:002011-07-03T21:51:11.931-07:00BackyardHere it is! Scott has worked so hard for the last few months making our backyard amazing! If you can imagine a yard of solid rock with a little dirt sprinkled in this would be it. So we had to build our yard up in order to put the sod in. Scott pored a concrete edging border 3"x6" around our entire yard, which meant we also had to pull up and relay the patio and then we trenched lines for the sprinklers and cables to run through then we hauled in 12 cubic yards of top soil by wheelbarrow since we couldn't get the dump truck to the back. Scott then compacted it and rolled the sod out. It is so beautiful!!! After waiting our 2 weeks for it to take we are enjoying the heck out of it. I had the boys out laying on a blanket and reading today it was so perfect, until it started sprinkling on us it was still nice to me but the boys decided to come in and stay dry. Scott also took a few min to finally sit down and relax, he has done so much to make such a nice yard for us. Thanks hun! Love Ya.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp6fV7OcYMPG9aVeztOmrenDBoeEm6XRbn4KArKLYH2QsMrqmhu28_Av8HOgbFIj02jJNiJGiYRcBxHdBV42jR_unEDzDTpnJLc0WSDS2JuBgvKX_HSPf5-FcjeTtgYFhyphenhyphentteNV0bNqIU/s1600/backyard4.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 95px; height: 160px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp6fV7OcYMPG9aVeztOmrenDBoeEm6XRbn4KArKLYH2QsMrqmhu28_Av8HOgbFIj02jJNiJGiYRcBxHdBV42jR_unEDzDTpnJLc0WSDS2JuBgvKX_HSPf5-FcjeTtgYFhyphenhyphentteNV0bNqIU/s400/backyard4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625340551704069922" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjX0bgklsD-yHrLr0luozBqfBPT8R_t3eHw1NyKbU0PKU29vowWM3eVsJ134y-1srjU5sTy79xb5QwhI9ONTwqgpBvvloMn2KhxmMA3nFTA2eG8xFhHNe3x1pUNbzF4AQ5y5hBJEcuJW3k/s1600/backyard3.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 95px; height: 160px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjX0bgklsD-yHrLr0luozBqfBPT8R_t3eHw1NyKbU0PKU29vowWM3eVsJ134y-1srjU5sTy79xb5QwhI9ONTwqgpBvvloMn2KhxmMA3nFTA2eG8xFhHNe3x1pUNbzF4AQ5y5hBJEcuJW3k/s400/backyard3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625340542301853042" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9zv8iyelyXou5YO5ZImKDmMAFA5qQbNoBOKeLRZVsV9e7HoULIKLnoZQFnENhTJ8W-Ho-FDnl-N_NPHLQbW6D_JHkAdvHCvX_hP7KScTu06AwuWpbia5scQxKjWbItKAjgLiRMf0m0zE/s1600/backyard2.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 95px; height: 160px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9zv8iyelyXou5YO5ZImKDmMAFA5qQbNoBOKeLRZVsV9e7HoULIKLnoZQFnENhTJ8W-Ho-FDnl-N_NPHLQbW6D_JHkAdvHCvX_hP7KScTu06AwuWpbia5scQxKjWbItKAjgLiRMf0m0zE/s400/backyard2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625340540969388146" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrpNjYtf_2keHBA8PEkPxB1dktNvadJeempJwMTbDm8cIc8gwn9HJ-X7Bhyphenhyphen11p3WVgxVxd23xHZWvuTlwXhUQzKJd5Mc4i0U8BtIQMdCVbfXj1m3ROuZHz7qMJZDehVpfBHB37fLTlyUA/s1600/backyard1.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 95px; height: 160px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrpNjYtf_2keHBA8PEkPxB1dktNvadJeempJwMTbDm8cIc8gwn9HJ-X7Bhyphenhyphen11p3WVgxVxd23xHZWvuTlwXhUQzKJd5Mc4i0U8BtIQMdCVbfXj1m3ROuZHz7qMJZDehVpfBHB37fLTlyUA/s400/backyard1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625340537762089282" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8345wgZQ3g2xUnLOzZxqoS62iefoDssR5ghagkBS8k_rvCoc3KsPBQgT_d56Bv_5JmjkU8mB3Z6VpvNEc6SlAOp2MmriGGeLDUdeWrThs4z9mDFPt3oiBdNYrDBkzVJu0XzfAECxHu4s/s1600/7-3-11+1056.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8345wgZQ3g2xUnLOzZxqoS62iefoDssR5ghagkBS8k_rvCoc3KsPBQgT_d56Bv_5JmjkU8mB3Z6VpvNEc6SlAOp2MmriGGeLDUdeWrThs4z9mDFPt3oiBdNYrDBkzVJu0XzfAECxHu4s/s400/7-3-11+1056.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625340561422657298" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiWeoDAOg6Cokkiw9Spa-47vzZhcLTYAnVOiTnrvO3zFXBAHnpSKviahfsW5W8n8ySEI0533oZzVCyrG-T7ApIxm39vAB6G1-Q6bEUM1apGmPzGi_3so7VblYK9EGBuhnoxBa_jLFjD0E/s1600/7-3-11+1071.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiWeoDAOg6Cokkiw9Spa-47vzZhcLTYAnVOiTnrvO3zFXBAHnpSKviahfsW5W8n8ySEI0533oZzVCyrG-T7ApIxm39vAB6G1-Q6bEUM1apGmPzGi_3so7VblYK9EGBuhnoxBa_jLFjD0E/s400/7-3-11+1071.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625354966824860418" /></a>MelindaLouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05192716387653483290noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551784566852041375.post-66211658391481901092011-07-01T01:55:00.001-07:002011-07-03T21:53:01.628-07:00GardenOne of my favorite things that I have the best memories of from growing up was our garden! My mom and dad our amazing at the Garden's (granted they have great soil and the perfect climate for it, but they do good work) :-) I have tried off and on but for the last 3 years I have had really good gardens (for Flagstaff) and I am so proud that I can make things grow here. Lucky for me Scott let's me keep trying even though we don't usually get a lot out of it. This year I have to say is looking to be my best garden yet I am so excited to start getting some veggies and making salsa. This year we are growing Brussel Sprouts, Strawberries, Lettuce, Peas, Peppers: Bell, Jalapeno, New Mexico, & Big Jim's, Spinach, Green Beans (some of our favorites so we did 3 rows of just them!), and Tomatoes.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7FQIZGGFtb5Nbgea2cVeU1PQmeqDSYEMUjr5VWBabJjtA0fXXrIWnyMP9VeJ22S7g2ybHrgOsAzMsVr32b_ScOS2OEtwTuj0z6J_7oAb1rPAy9Oyfrjz0qz30QRpLV9M-1MxG2oaq0h4/s1600/7-3-11+1065.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7FQIZGGFtb5Nbgea2cVeU1PQmeqDSYEMUjr5VWBabJjtA0fXXrIWnyMP9VeJ22S7g2ybHrgOsAzMsVr32b_ScOS2OEtwTuj0z6J_7oAb1rPAy9Oyfrjz0qz30QRpLV9M-1MxG2oaq0h4/s400/7-3-11+1065.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625351533399797458" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJJmvYxPdkmoIzEvTsVCXpY0OtXOptU1bvKW7G0HKL4D9sD5bFiXilidTCrQwwrBk4LwU8v4dvsGuAwvAht2HPKuZipuVIxNvlMXhPtZJK8pdKIrxjrLgU2UKv3WzwUX4eagv1CzXRhD4/s1600/7-3-11+1064.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJJmvYxPdkmoIzEvTsVCXpY0OtXOptU1bvKW7G0HKL4D9sD5bFiXilidTCrQwwrBk4LwU8v4dvsGuAwvAht2HPKuZipuVIxNvlMXhPtZJK8pdKIrxjrLgU2UKv3WzwUX4eagv1CzXRhD4/s400/7-3-11+1064.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625350931836263970" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjz5ZEKmfZM4vgAZUpREdOe6byFZPvynBX705RJhMsYKvgPAvJDuDpO5tdMuYLjdpSg_hKsx5iY_6FxUQYIhQ9gVvXi1gHVVgPNl5WkyIzM_0_j72OzAyhzfnIrlPkyMxLonWPOKf1U74E/s1600/7-3-11+1063.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjz5ZEKmfZM4vgAZUpREdOe6byFZPvynBX705RJhMsYKvgPAvJDuDpO5tdMuYLjdpSg_hKsx5iY_6FxUQYIhQ9gVvXi1gHVVgPNl5WkyIzM_0_j72OzAyhzfnIrlPkyMxLonWPOKf1U74E/s400/7-3-11+1063.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625350255244357506" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzPnMkTr8NYgkDyTJ8bu0rTch4yUWU4tjNhjEWd76vWktyP9oeeY5soWbJzkNpfLA8Sy3wZKEbsPOoWspPd1Jl3tXgZm7y8JexDmhLVT5Jgrd2q-iKXisRrYixE0Yx7KJtbYAUTEO15f0/s1600/7-3-11+1062.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzPnMkTr8NYgkDyTJ8bu0rTch4yUWU4tjNhjEWd76vWktyP9oeeY5soWbJzkNpfLA8Sy3wZKEbsPOoWspPd1Jl3tXgZm7y8JexDmhLVT5Jgrd2q-iKXisRrYixE0Yx7KJtbYAUTEO15f0/s400/7-3-11+1062.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625349569517724322" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqAR1B6Fto1fVAF4DnAedIRHiFeT03DI-mU8vXMw9NubT68eHrUyVY8UB0lbBDdSBl0CtT9bwaDPQU0bfzIlcpJUr_ivd6jo4mXa9N9uxzeyJwiuuZrqTmjWmlXfgGMcWV-UaXv-Lp064/s1600/7-3-11+1060.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqAR1B6Fto1fVAF4DnAedIRHiFeT03DI-mU8vXMw9NubT68eHrUyVY8UB0lbBDdSBl0CtT9bwaDPQU0bfzIlcpJUr_ivd6jo4mXa9N9uxzeyJwiuuZrqTmjWmlXfgGMcWV-UaXv-Lp064/s400/7-3-11+1060.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625349148018503842" /></a>MelindaLouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05192716387653483290noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551784566852041375.post-14829825024105669452011-07-01T01:53:00.001-07:002011-07-01T01:56:21.866-07:00Lake Powell June 2011<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" bgcolor="#ffffff"><tr><td><a href="http://smilebox.com/play/4d6a55314e6a49314d54553d0d0a&blogview=true&campaign=blog_playback_link" target="_blank"><img width="386" height="303" alt="Click to play this Smilebox slideshow" src="http://smilebox.com/snap/4d6a55314e6a49314d54553d0d0a.jpg" style="border: medium none ;"/></a></td></tr><tr><td><a href="http://www.smilebox.com/?partner=smilebox&campaign=blog_snapshot" target="_blank"><img width="386" height="46" alt="Create your own slideshow - Powered by Smilebox" src="http://www.smilebox.com/globalImages/blogInstructions/blogLogoSmileboxSmall.gif" style="border: medium none ;"/></a></td></tr><tr><td align="center">Make a <a href="http://www.smilebox.com/anytime-slideshows.html" target="_blank">picture slideshow</a></td></tr></table><br /><br />Oh how I love you Lake Powell, you are one of my very favorite placed on earth.

Trying to get ready for camp and still working and fathers day and the lake and B's blessing. I love it out there. the boys played on the zip line and got very dirty but that's how I judge how much fun they are having. I took down the porch that collapsed a few winters ago and took about a million rusty nails out of all the old wood piles so we can burn them.

Today was just one of those funny days when I realize how much of a boys world I live in, We were out at the Ranch and Matt needed to go potty, I told him he would have to us the old wooden outhouse and with out missing a step he said ok went in not only once but twice (so wouldn't happen with girls I remember wanting to cry when I had to use one), Matt comes in with a gash on his head from having hit the concrete, Scott is tucking them in and they have the newspaper adds "The Gun Section" and said there were their newspapers to look at, and then I found a rubber lizzard on the floor in the living room and another one taking a bath in the bathroom sink. They all just made me smile. What a boring life I would have without all my boys.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3rTPl4_WJbP4XOl21EtaMaKoJgDZsYOH1k1qJLRYK17Q-RF8ao0ClYJwYjiYg97CLdq34nayYUvn7trtAS_OW7_3jMpX23Q9YomsJtAkm5hiMGu-CmxHsE9pYw_HYNXhdVyp1NouhsqM/s1600/DSCN1329.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3rTPl4_WJbP4XOl21EtaMaKoJgDZsYOH1k1qJLRYK17Q-RF8ao0ClYJwYjiYg97CLdq34nayYUvn7trtAS_OW7_3jMpX23Q9YomsJtAkm5hiMGu-CmxHsE9pYw_HYNXhdVyp1NouhsqM/s400/DSCN1329.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5614969404345878130" /></a>MelindaLouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05192716387653483290noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551784566852041375.post-29954233431132845222011-06-05T21:35:00.000-07:002011-06-05T22:19:19.549-07:00Memorial Day WeekendWow this was a busy weekend for us. Scott met Mom & Dad G to hand over the boys for a few days on Thursday. Friday we went to Cottonwood to pick up the boat and brought it back up for the season, worked on the yard (pics to come later, we are putting in grass). Saturday up early and went back to Cottonwood to help Mom & Dad J move to phoenix then we headed up the hill to Pinetop to spend the rest of the weekend with my family and Billy & Kara's families cabin. We were able to sit and enjoy some down time and hang out with most of the nieces (just missing Chan). Scott got to play golf and luckily the wind quit blowing (mostly). Thanks so much Kara & Billy for sharing your long weekend with us.<br /><br /><div><embed src="http://widget-c8.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="l" wmode="transparent" flashvars="cy=bb&il=1&channel=2089670227127512776&site=widget-c8.slide.com" style="width:400px;height:320px" name="flashticker" align="middle"></embed><div style="width:400px;text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=2089670227127512776&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-c8.slide.com/p1/2089670227127512776/bb_t046_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=2089670227127512776&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-c8.slide.com/p2/2089670227127512776/bb_t046_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide2.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=2089670227127512776&map=F" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-c8.slide.com/p4/2089670227127512776/bb_t046_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide42.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a></div></div>MelindaLouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05192716387653483290noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551784566852041375.post-89787662057697314282011-05-22T20:42:00.000-07:002011-05-22T21:16:33.078-07:00The Boys had a busy and fun weekend<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipUrRjjK8SAnaN8S7UiY0gqUUSQhTZiVcCIgxsekRsZaXFt2a5VP1loYCybJ_KbDdZ8oSo2CFABA4GHQw-MfsddLoHOlPW1uqwY5TtYSkua2CkfEhbv_wfYm8aYpK2Mp174ZQrui1yhOA/s1600/DSCN0970.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipUrRjjK8SAnaN8S7UiY0gqUUSQhTZiVcCIgxsekRsZaXFt2a5VP1loYCybJ_KbDdZ8oSo2CFABA4GHQw-MfsddLoHOlPW1uqwY5TtYSkua2CkfEhbv_wfYm8aYpK2Mp174ZQrui1yhOA/s400/DSCN0970.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5609754154178075282" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyHCBcJ1hTTz-qXUrZ4aV4b4jykH5S72KCoxmxDYSJcTgdZFY-OdoF-Ru-EByIgrO7EBBLUxUdOuI57fNQ6hv81HqftEj_TrQQHqKz3ONeQG3nPSrKKIyqACMNwXaOT1A-NQw5rgNc_hk/s1600/DSCN0981.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyHCBcJ1hTTz-qXUrZ4aV4b4jykH5S72KCoxmxDYSJcTgdZFY-OdoF-Ru-EByIgrO7EBBLUxUdOuI57fNQ6hv81HqftEj_TrQQHqKz3ONeQG3nPSrKKIyqACMNwXaOT1A-NQw5rgNc_hk/s400/DSCN0981.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5609754147437965090" /></a><br />Jake's School has a "Wall of Fame" that the students teachers can recommended them to receive a "Brick".

We had such a great time, we went to the show and loved it (me probably more than Scott, but love him even more than I did before since he went with me!!!), then spent the rest of the weekend lounging beside the pull in SUN SHINE and being WARM it was so great, eating amazing food and hanging out with good company! Scott of course, and my Sis & Bro Kara & Billy came out and joined us it was so fun.MelindaLouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05192716387653483290noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551784566852041375.post-77273928420752785892011-05-18T22:27:00.000-07:002011-05-18T23:02:40.925-07:00Seriously Mother Nature!!!Sorry all but I have to vent for a few... Really it's MAY!!! I went with Jake's K Class on their field trip today and what would you know it blowed, snowed, hailed, & rained on us the entire time (not even a week ago we were in flip flops & shorts!). But no today had to be nasty. The poor kiddos were soaked to the bone, we went to the deer farm petting zoo and the animals would hardly even come out, I felt so bad for the kids. I sure hope summer comes soon, I don't know how much more we can all take. (Picture is stolen from a friend. I was to busy trying to keep kids dry and had no chance for pics.)<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiudeltQdtXC8a8qrvQmtrx4soULQFwL1miVq3zyx1b55cYKNf8F1MJnUpS_ZnCCKnOiCUmxnNbj30ik6lVbpdRX2i_cZUYAD4GF3SzZE5jciou_6ik1QBtwul7fG2PKEXdcg4OqZ5Ghzk/s1600/May+2011+snow.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 130px; height: 98px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiudeltQdtXC8a8qrvQmtrx4soULQFwL1miVq3zyx1b55cYKNf8F1MJnUpS_ZnCCKnOiCUmxnNbj30ik6lVbpdRX2i_cZUYAD4GF3SzZE5jciou_6ik1QBtwul7fG2PKEXdcg4OqZ5Ghzk/s400/May+2011+snow.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5608303320544489554" /></a><br /><br />p.s.

Sorry it's blurry and you can only see the back of Jake's head but at least you can here how good this group of kids does on the Violin.<br /><br />Jake has really enjoyed playing the violin this year. His school has a focus on the Art's & Science's. Each K-2 gets 2 30min. lessons every week. They have taught them lot's of fundamentals and the basics of performing and the kids seem to really enjoy it. <br /><br /><div><embed src="http://widget-ab.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="l" wmode="transparent" flashvars="cy=bb&il=1&channel=1513209474824412331&site=widget-ab.slide.com" style="width:400px;height:320px" name="flashticker" align="middle"><div style="width:400px;text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=1513209474824412331&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-ab.slide.com/p1/1513209474824412331/bb_t048_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" ismap="ismap" border="0"></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=1513209474824412331&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-ab.slide.com/p2/1513209474824412331/bb_t048_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide2.gif" ismap="ismap" border="0"></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=1513209474824412331&map=F" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-ab.slide.com/p4/1513209474824412331/bb_t048_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide42.gif" ismap="ismap" border="0"></a></div></div><br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dyjr4GhNkHyF90rm8dakJqTXcGE_--KtBDRrh5mF8IZUAj4hqXasdclvAXFC3ZlpBBnJ18jJ_mhkGX7TSEy8Q' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>MelindaLouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05192716387653483290noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551784566852041375.post-22080333815399621042011-05-08T18:12:00.000-07:002011-05-08T18:38:45.615-07:00Grand (Chocolate) FallsWe went out a few weekends ago for a day trip, this place is about 40 min. from home and we had a great time!
