Ok so none of these have been edited but I thought I should post them here since she was married on May 22nd, sorry it has taken me so long but here are some of the pics I took while there. It was so wonderful to see family and be able to visit we had a lot of fun and are glad we were able to attend. We were so happy Laurie was able to make it down as well as Aunt Barbara and everyone else we seen while there. Later, Amy

Bridal Shower!

Ok so I really late posting these but I had my sister's bridal shower for her on May 30, 2010 to celebrate her upcoming marriage on June 25, 2010. We had so much fun and it was even better because I got to go wild! I did a pink and zebra print (or black and white) theme which made shopping for decorations lots of fun for me. She went to the hot pools in Lava Hot Springs and then we had soup and and really great fruit tray for dinner then lots of games, including pin the dress on the bride and "know" your bride. Thanks for a fun party gals! Later, Amy

behind again

Ok I am really behind again with the trip to New Mexico and three straight days in the car have wiped me out. I had a nice visit with family and wished I could have stayed longer. Mom and I threw Sandi's bridal shower yesterday also which was a lot of fun. Travis' step-mom Shirley and her daugher Deanne were both there and helped us tremendously with dinner and a big beautiful fruit tray. I made a "tres leches" cake for the first time and it was really good; it is a 3 milk cake traditional for a mexican style cake. We are also still anxiously awaiting the arrival of Hailey's new little girl but she has still not delivered. Later, Amy

Reception fun!

We went to a wedding reception in Blackfoot for Travis' step brother (Larry's son and daughter in law) and had a lot of fun! They had a whole roasted pig, lots of dutch oven potatoes and cobblers and a water slide for the kids to enjoy. Thanks Eldon we loved it! Sorry I didnt get very many pictures I have been sick all weekend. Later, Amy

The animals are back!

Ok so there is a story to this; Travis took Trevor with him last Friday to the cattle sale, we wanted 2 new beef cows to carry throught the summer into fall like we did last year. Travis did not find the cows at auction after over 4 hours of sitting there so he went to a private seller to get our cows at a good rate per pound now here is where the story gets interesting. Trevor wandered all over the farm while Travis and his dad Denny delt with the cows. Trevor climbed hay stacks and discovered baby kittens and chicken eggs and had a lot of fun. He was not leaving that farm without a chicken! LOL! Now here is the story, I wanted chickens last year and my loving husband said no chickens they are dirty and gross! Our dear son got his dad to let him bring home a baby chicken; of course chickens are not solitary animals so we had to buy 4 more chicks from McKee's. He is up early every morning and asks Travis to walk out with him and let him feed his chick so even though we dont love chickens (because they are dirty) we now have chickens. Travis, my dear husband, you are a pushover! LOL! Trevor named our cows, the black one is Licorice and the black and white one is Polka Dot; the littlest white chick is his and name Chickie. Thanks little man for gettting Daddy to let you bring a chicken home! Later, Amy

Hailey is getting ready to have her baby girl; she is saying any day now so hopefull soon so we can visit them when we go to the wedding next week!

We are winding up this school year all ready and Eric is sooo excited to be out in a few weeks! Trevor and I were lucky enough to get to see a small play from some of the students last Friday and then walk to the park for lunch with Eric. Trevor and Eric played some and we had a great time out. Also today I took off from work for pioneer days at school; Eric's class got to make candles, yarn dolls and bread (yes, from scratch)! It was really fun to be able to go and help him and some of his classmates through these fun activities. Later, Amy
