Another new page!

I have been having so much fun scrapping these old photos. Here is my latest page.....
(Mom, I think that was Tyler, but where is Barrett? Let me know if I'm wrong.)

Things have been good here, that is, except the weather. We have had constant winds and cold temperatures - we even had snow on our car this morning! Someone needs to tell Idaho that it is June now!!! Jaden's baseball game got cancelled, he was bummed, but I was glad. I wasn't looking forward to sitting there on the bleachers in this weather. Luckily, it's supposed to get better this weekend... I can't wait, I really need some summer weather.

I found a great website the other day. My friend, Kristy, and I had been talking about how blogging was a way for us to keep a journal and she also told me about a site that is a place to keep a journal online, totally private. It's ldsjournal.com and it allows for pictures, videos, and of course, journal writing. You can easily copy and paste blog entries as well. It also has some great family history features. Anyway, if you are interested in keeping a journal online (never have to worry about something happening to it - fire, flood....) go check it out.

Old Neighborhood Boating Pages





These were so much fun to make!!! I used a really fun kit that I got at Scrap Orchard. It has been a lot of fun to use old pictures from when I was growing up. Mom, do you know the date, or at least the year, that these were taken? I'd like to add that into them. Also, where were they taken - just out in the Sound? And thanks for getting those scanned in!!!

Another new header!

I was just not really happy with the last one, so I thought I would make another! I don't have much anything interesting to say today, but thought that I would just tell you of an incidence we had with Austin. My mother-in-law had to call and remind me of this yesterday - I never did write it down before so I thought I would today.

Austin had gone downstairs to Guy (I had just gotten after him for picking on his brother and sister and not doing what he was asked) and he told him. "Dad, when mom gets mad at Jaden, he cries. When mom gets mad at me, I just get mad at her!"

That pretty much just sums up their personalities!!!!

Austin's pics!

Don't forget to look at the other post showing Jaden's pics and telling more about both of their games!

My 100th Post!!! and baseball pics!

Jaden had his first coach-pitch baseball game on Monday. He had so much fun! He was able to get up to bat twice and hit the ball both times. On his first hit, he was able to make it to 2nd base - the only double from his team! The second hit was hilarious - I wish I had my video going, but my camera had run out of batteries. :( Anyway, he hit the ball and it was a fly ball and it was heading straight for the 2nd baseman (who actually is a boy from our ward). This boy wasn't paying attention and we were a little scared the ball was going to hit him in the head. He was talking with another kid with his hand and mit hanging in front of him and the ball came down and knocked his mit to the ground. If he had been holding his mit the other way, he would have caught it without knowing!!! Anyway, it was pretty funny! The wind was horrible during the game and we all just about froze! Jaden didn't seem to mind!



Here is Jaden with his shirt and hat - he was hoping his team would be green!

Gettin ready for the pitch!
Swing!
And he made it to second!

Austin had his first t-ball game yesterday. He also had a great time. He said it got a little bit long, but he still enjoyed it. The weather was also horrible for Austin's game. It was WINDY and raining off and on. It is so funny to watch kids play t-ball. Austin would dance and play with his hat and the dirt. He had a hard time paying attention. His favorite part (obviously) was batting. He did good, too! I'll post his pictures in a new post. I guess I've already posted too many, so things may be a little out of order - I don't know how that will work.
Austin all ready for the game - he was hoping his team would be orange!
I'm going to post more of his pics on a new post!!!!!!
