Lagoon Family Photo

On of the things on our list was to go and get our family photo done over in pioneer village.....so we headed over there..and started to dress up...at first the logan wasn't so thrilled about it...until they said he could hold a gun and be a sheriff...then he was all game....I wanted us to be all out laws...so that is what we were...and this is the out come of that....we also took some funny ones..and smiling ones...But this is the only one that everyone is looking at the camera...the funny one was hilarious but mercedi back of her head was all you could see of her...but it was funny..All the kids got into character....and had lots of fun doing it...I love the looks of the girls in the photos..they crack me up...very mean looking they are...

3rd part of our family vacation

Well the third thing that we decided to do....was to take the kids to lagoon....they have never been there...and we really wanted to share that with them....so we woke up and got ready to go....It was the perfect day to go as well...it was cloudy and the sun was not hot..and it even drizzled on us a time or to as well....So we got there and hour before it opened so that we could be ready to go....The first ride the kids went on was a spooky one...and they were ready to try it out...at first they didn't really want to go to lagoon...but as soon as they saw the rides and things..they started to get really excited....They all enjoyed a lot of the rides...and some not so much....logan and mikayla did not like the roller coasters and it was the funniest thing to see logans face on them...he had the look of death..and I was laughing so hard watching him...it was great family fun..and the kids enjoyed it all...we also went to the lagoon beach part as well..but didn't take any pictures...Melanie loved that part..she got to swim..and that was her most favorite thing to do there...sense she didn't get to ride..because we didn't think she would want to so we didn't buy her a ticket...so next time we go..she will get to ride too..

Father's Day!!!! 2011

It's that time again..to let the men in our lives know how lucky we are to have them as husbands and fathers and dad's... I looked up when fathers day began...and how it was started...It first began back in 1908 on July 5th by Mrs grace golden...who wanted to remember those fathers who had just passed away a couple of months a go in a mining disaster that killed 200 fathers...after much debate with three presidents to go through...fathers day was finally established by Nixon in 1972...and would be the third Sunday of June... every year...the only reason it was finally acknowledge was because of the lady who made mothers day...said it was unfair to celebrate mothers day and not fathers day as well...so it was made a holiday...so now for fathers day...it is usually spent with a special dinner for dad...or and outing with the family....The most common gifts are ties and office supplies...Also the most collect calls are made on fathers day ...out of the whole year...that was a surprise to know that....So for us to celebrate fathers day...we made a breakfast try for dad...but with out the breakfast...he was fasting...and we decorated it up for him..and the kids were supper excited about giving there gifts to dad....we went to church..and then came home and had a wonderful dinner...with all the trimmings..and good cream hearsay pie....yum...he had a wonderful fathers day...and loved all of his gifts...He is a special man...and a Wonderful father...He does so much for our family and gives his all...we love him very much...Your the best Honey pie.






This is the Kids Wonderful Father....And my hunk of Love!!!!

Fathers day clock project

So fathers day was coming up and I thought I should be crafty and make something up...so I got this idea to make a fathers day clock for jesse to take to work with him so he can have it...So I first bought a white canvas its and 8x10 size..




next...I found a old clock we had and took it apart..so that I could have the clock hands and battery



Next I modge pod the paper and picture on the canvas and then I punched a whole into the middle of the picture and the canvas....so that I could paste the clock on there...sense the canvas is so thin I hot glued the clock part to the back so it would stay still in place...

Next I set the battery in and cut out words to place on the front using my cricket machine....Very fun and easy project to do ...





Here is the finished project...it worked out great...I loved it...now to see if he loves it as well...Also I had the kids sign and write something on the back of the clock..so he could see and read it at work as well...they loved doing this...
