Kenny Chesney - The Boys of Fall

Football Season Again!!!

Well I can feel fall in the air and that means only 1 thing at our house....FOOTBALL SEASON! We have been practicing for over 3 weeks and tonight is our first big game. The boys have great coaches this year and I appreciate all the time that goes into it. I never thought I would grow to love the game but I have! I also never thought I would be a Bonneville fan but I am! Go Bees!

Good Times with Family

I am so lucky that my boys are getting to know my grandpa. We had a Sorenson family reunion and had a blast. My Grandpa Ford is 92 years old. We are so grateful that he was there with us!

I love summer. It is fun spending time with family and friends. We have done a lot of that this year and have enjoyed every minute!

Happy Birthday!!

Wow I think it is time for an update. We have been busy celebrating!

Dylan turned 8

Kolby and Aunt Haylie share a birthday! Kolby turned 11.

OH NO!! He is a teenager now. Brenden turned 13.

We will just say that Joe is that much closer to the big 40. He doesn't like discussing that!



All my summer boys!

A Girl's Weekend

Last weekend I went to Las Vegas with my mom, sister's and girlfriend's. What a fun weekend! I wasn't ready to come home. I needed another vacation to catch up on sleep!

Our whole group except for Toni. This is just before we began our picture scavenger hunt through Vegas. We all had on matching shirts. We didn't want to lose each other.

In front of the New Your New York. We rode the roller coaster and had a blast!! I wanted to go again.

We went to a Beatles Impersonation show. It was a lot of fun.

Before leaving for the Bon Jovi concert. We were so excited!!

My mom and I waiting for the concert to begin. My mom has wanted to see Bon Jovi for a long time. All I can say is that it was well worth the wait. He performed for 3 hours! It went by so quickly. I am getting chills just writing about it. It was an awesome concert!!

Bon Jovi

We had a great weekend. It was nice getting away for a couple of days. I was ready for the break. Joe is such a good sport. He didn't mind staying home with the boys. They had a LOST marathon. He knew that wouldn't have happened if I was home. Thanks to everyone for such a fun weekend!!

Busy Life....

Joe and I celebrated our 13th. anniversary last week. We didn't do much since we had basketball games. We will go out and celebrate when things slow down. I don't know when that will ever happen. Joe sent me these beautiful flowers. What a fun surprise!

I have been wanting to add color to my walls for a long time. Joe has never thought it was a good idea. He can be so boring! Justin and I went to Home Depot on Thursday and bought paint. I was able to get most of the first coat done before Joe got home from work. I couldn't work on it Friday. I was able to finish up Saturday after basketball games. I love the new color!! I just wish I would have done it sooner....Joe even likes it.

After painting on Saturday I canned salsa. My sister has gotten me involved in the Bountiful Basket. We ordered a few cases of tomatoes and have been busy doing salsa. I know it isn't really the right season but it is so much more enjoyable during the winter. The Bountiful Basket is a great concept and it is fun to get all of the fresh fruits and veggies at a great price.

The Big Guy Found Us......

Santa found our house this year....we weren't sure if he would. We let the boys begin about 7:30. I know they had been awake since 5:30. We were waiting for my parent's and sister to arrive. They had part of the delivery from Santa.

The boys looking everything over. They don't realize that in the box with the gold bow is a puppy. Baby J finally heard the puppy crying. It was very cute!

Kolby's chair for the Big Game Monday night. Go Boise State!!

Dylan and Brownie

Baby J loves the puppy. I don't know what Santa was thinking. The boys have been asking for a dog for years. Joe has even been begging so I gave in. So far so good.
