Lake Mead with friends

2010-07-02T15:50:00.000-07:00

It is always more fun to take friends to the lake.

Kaeden

2010-07-02T15:45:00.001-07:00

This was the only time he tried diving. His head hurt for a few minutes after this. The rest of the time he went feet first.

It took a few times but Kaeden got up on the wake board.

Memorial Weekend

2010-07-02T15:13:00.001-07:00

We went over to Cedar for a BBQ with Melissa and Chad. Aiden didn't want to go for a nap so he thought if he laid down with Taesi that wouls do. It didn't he still had to have a nap.

Taesi and Brandon deceided to dress up and have a ninja fight on the trampoline. Not sure who won.

It is that time of the year

2010-07-02T15:10:00.000-07:00

Time to get fire wood, this is Kaeden's why of helping.

Weekend of camping

2010-07-02T15:04:00.001-07:00

Jared had the weekend off so we decided to go camping. Kaeden has been asking to go to Arches National park for while so here we go.

We only got rained on while we were putting up the tent.

We made it to the arches.

Kaeden's Bryce Canyon Field Trip

2010-07-02T14:55:00.000-07:00

Kaeden and Hagen were all smiles at the top of Bryce Canyon.

Kaeden's class this year got to go to Bryce canyon this year and because Jared was working I got to go. It was really fun for me, although Kaeden really really wanted Jared to go with him. There was about 40 kids and at least 10 parents and teachers.

The way down wasn't to bad, but I thought that I was going to die on the way back up. Even the 4 boys I was in charge of weren't sure they were going to make it back up. Mrs. Bulkley was the tour guide, she was also their kindergarten teacher 2 years ago, so all the kids thought that was Awesome!!

This is Kaeden's 2nd grade class with the world's greatest teacher!!!! as Kaeden would say. I would agree with him.

Taesi's Hair cut

2010-07-02T14:54:00.000-07:00

The other day I was in the back room and what do I find on the floor??? It was a clump of beautiful blond hair that has been cut off. Never in all of her 5 years has Taesi tried anything like this. I asked her what she was thinking.... She could get the ponytail out so she cut it out. I was home I told her now we would have to get it cut short and she said, "that's ok I wanted my hair like Krys's (our best friend). We finally got it cut and it looks really cute. All's well that ends well, right?

Let's Play Ball

2010-07-02T14:49:00.000-07:00

Kaeden had a great time in baseball this year. Nice sweatshirt, it has been so cold, where is spring??

Jared helped coach, Kaeden thought that was great. Jared was just happy they finally got a few of the girls to stand in one spot and actually watch the ball.

Taesi's Spring Dance Recital

2010-05-06T23:08:00.000-07:00

It has been so fun to watch Taesi develope her dance talent. She just loves it.

Such concentration!!

Such fun!!

Such facial expressions.

baby lambs

2010-05-06T23:05:00.001-07:00

Our neighbor has some baby lambs, Kaeden and Taesi love to help feed them. Thank goodness for kind neighbors!

Taesi's dance competition

2010-05-06T23:01:00.001-07:00

Taesi had her first dance competition in Parowan. She did such a great job. I think her favorite part is the costume and the make-up. She loves to get out and perform in front of everyone, not sure where that trait came from but I and glad she has it!!

Aren't they just the cutest little girls you have ever seen???

Watching conference

2010-05-06T22:53:00.001-07:00

Well maybe listening???? Atleast they were sitting.

Happy Easter to all.

coloring easter eggs

2010-05-06T22:04:00.001-07:00

We colored eggs in shifts, littles one first. They had such a good time together.
Taesi, Collin and Addy. Like the dress up the girls are wearing????

Look at the concentration!!!!

Brandon and Kaeden tried to be more artistic with the help of their dad's used crayons before colloring the eggs. They ended up with some really cool eggs. Coloring eggs is always more fun with cousin.

Spring in overton

2010-05-06T22:00:00.001-07:00

Oh the warm weather!!!! We love to wear shorts especially when it is still snowing at home. We went to Overton for spring break and soak up as much sun as possible.

Kaeden trying to be a golfer, it didn't take long for him go back to the dirt pile.

Collin, Taesi, and Addy.

Kaeden's 2nd wrestling meet

2010-05-06T21:58:00.001-07:00

Kaeden won a match, by point and took third at his 2nd wrestling meet. He was so excited.

Kaeden's first wrestling meet

2010-05-06T21:40:00.001-07:00

Kaeden's did great at his first wrestling meet. we went over to Cedar for the day. He got he got pinned 2 time and lost one by point. But he was so excited not to get pinned.
It was fun watching him get so excited and try so hard.

Brandon came and watched for a while. He said maybe he should try wrestling because all the boys in the May family do it.

Kaeden even wanted a mohowk in his hair, way out of his comfort zone but i guess it is ok at at a wrestling meet. I was so proud of him for going and following through. My boy is growing up!!!

Joshua Tree National Park

2010-05-06T21:25:00.000-07:00

On the way home we went through Joshua Tree National Park and spent a few minutes.

We had to soak up as much warm weather as possible.

The beach

2010-05-06T21:18:00.001-07:00

W spent one day at the beach, the weather was gorgeous, but the water was freezing!!!

Even princesses like to play in the sand.

swimming at the pool

2010-05-06T21:14:00.000-07:00

The kids couldn't get enough of the pool. There was a few times they wanted to leave Disneyland and go back to the swimming pool to swim. I guess even Disneyland can't even compete with swimming with cousins.

Lunch with the Princesses

2010-05-06T21:10:00.000-07:00

Us girls got to have lunch with the princesses. I thought Taesi's eyes were going pop out of her head each time a princess was announced. I think this was the highlight of her life so far. She just couldn't sit still, it was wonderful.

I think Belle is her favorite this week.

This was our dessert, the whole meal was absolutely wonderful. Taesi was so excited to eat Ariele, everything was edible except for the plate. Even the seashell wasmade of chocolate. Yummy!!!!

Family Fun

2010-05-06T21:04:00.000-07:00

The writing on the wall says it all....

We were able to do it all even the dumbo ride.

This was after splash mountain, Taesi was not happy with me, but she finally admitted that she like it, except for the last drop.

We are off to Disneyland

2010-05-06T20:55:00.000-07:00

We made it to disneyland. Yeah!!! We went with Jared's brother and his family and had a wonderful time. We got lots of autographs and made it all all the rides. And we had wonderful weather.

Kaeden, Taesi, Hunter, Harbor, a girl we didn't know and Hailey in Micky's toon town.

Jared and Kaeden went skiing

2010-05-06T20:49:00.000-07:00

Kaeden finally got to go skiing. Yes, I let my son skip school to go skiing with his dad, it was only a half day. He has been after Jared all winter, every story and picture that he has drawn in school and at home has been about snowboarding and skiing.

Having lunch.

He looks like a pro already. I think he was actually on his way down.

Just call him Jared Junior.

Let's go fishing

2010-05-06T20:44:00.000-07:00

The snow is finally starting to go away, Kaeden decieded he would try fishing in our pond in the back yard. i don't think that it worked but he had fun trying.

May cousins

2010-05-06T20:38:00.000-07:00

We have such a wonderfully supported family. Here are all the May cousins, I didn't get a picture of the Higgs Cousin that made it. The day just went by to fast. We are so thankful that those who could make it did. Not sure if they will ever come again, by Sunday I think half of us had the flu, and no it wasn't my cooking!!!

Kaeden's Baptism

2010-05-06T20:36:00.001-07:00

My boy is 8 years old and is getting baptized. He was so excited!!!

Kaeden's cupcakes

2010-05-06T20:34:00.000-07:00

A friend's daughter made Kaeden some shark cupcakes for his party, we had enough to share with papa and grandma so we waited to til they got here to sing Happy Birthday.

Kaeden's B-day party at the pool

2010-05-06T20:28:00.000-07:00

The only way to do a winter birthday party in Panguitch with 15 boys is at the city pool. They had a blast, and it was a breeze for me. Kaeden has some great friend. This way he could invite them all.

What form!!!

Taesi didn't have any problem making herself part of the party.

Taesi B-Day present to Kaeden

2010-05-06T20:26:00.001-07:00

Taesi gave Kaeden his birthday present before we went to school. I asked them to get up on the couch so I could take a picture, Kaeden was grumbling about it and Taesi said, "Don't worry Kaeden I won't touch you." She knows him so well.

Snow in Panguitch

2010-05-06T20:23:00.000-07:00

We have way to much snow her in Panguitch, good things my kids love to play in it!!

This is the back yard, you can't really tell but there is a few feet there.

smowmobling

2010-05-06T20:17:00.001-07:00

I think we have finally found the one thing that Jared likes to do and I don't!!! It would be snowmobiling. The kids love it, but I don't. By the end of the trip Jared had both kids with him and I still got stuck and he had to help me out, the kids thought it was pretty funny. I didn't!!!

After the snowmobiling was done the kids still weren't done playing in the snow. Kaeden had to snowboard and Taesi went sledding.

Glad someone was smiling!!!!

New Year's Eve Bowling

2010-05-06T20:13:00.000-07:00

We went to Mesquite to go bowling and had a blast. Happy New Year!!!

Overton Park

2010-05-06T20:10:00.001-07:00

Kaeden got a rip stick for Christmas and tried to teach me how to ride, it didn't take long for me to quit. I think I need to stick with 4 wheels. The boys thought it was quite funny.

We alway enjoy the Overton park.

December in Overton

2010-05-06T20:01:00.000-07:00

Me and the kids went to Overton the week after Christmas, and enjoyed the weather. Todd, Jennifer, Melissa were all there and Tony brought his family out from Vegas and of course Brent and his family joined in on the family fun. We all went out to The valley of fire and had a blast.

Grandpa and Grandma and Most of the grandkids

Taesi and Addy

Christmas Eve

2009-12-24T18:24:00.001-08:00

It is 10:15 Christmas eve, the children are all snug in their beds, not sure what vision are dancing in their head. I love this time of year, I love to read the story of Jesus's birth to my children. I am so very thankful for Jesus Christ, for His birth, His life and His death. I know that he lives and loves each one us, and that His plan for us is to return and live with him someday with our families. I have so many blessing I wouldn't know where to beging counting. And I know that I have them because Christ loves me. May you all have a very merry Christmas with Christ in the center of your celebrations.

Our Christmas PJ's

2009-12-24T17:38:00.006-08:00

One of our traditions is getting new pj's for Christmas. They get to open one present Christmas eve and it is alway pj's. They have been guessing for the last week to see if we would tell them what kind of pj's they would get. By 5 pm tonight, christmas eve, they had both showered and was ready to open the present. I think we did good!!

Making Cookies for Santa

2009-12-24T17:38:00.005-08:00

Christmas Break

2009-12-24T17:38:00.003-08:00

And if that get boring Kaeden will take Taesi for a ride.

Tia's Dance

2009-12-24T17:38:00.001-08:00

December 19, i got to go and watch Tia (Jennifer's 2nd to oldest child) and Sherriann(Tia's best friend and practically part of the may family) perform at their drill competition. They did amazing see below all of them doing the splits, this is nothing. They started out doing head stands. Jared stayed at Jen's with our 2 kids and Jen's 3 youngest while i got to sit and watch Tia. I wish I could go to all of the competition the girls are so dedicated it just gives me the goose bumps thinking about it.

Taesi's 1st dance recital

2009-12-24T17:37:00.005-08:00

Taesi had her first dance recital. She did so good, I was afraid that she would be shy, believe it or not she does have those moments, and not get out there and dance. She looked so cute and did her best to do the dances.

What I want for Christmas???

2009-12-24T17:37:00.003-08:00

Kaeden asked for a rip stick and a nerf CF35, I guess it is an automatic nerf gun that can shoot 35 bullets. Fun Fun Fun.

Taesi asked for a doll, a barbie and a mirror. When I asked what she wanted a mirror for she replied with her head bobbing from side to side, "so she can look at her self." What a princess????

I am so spoiled....

2009-12-24T17:37:00.001-08:00

I was at the hospital picking up my paperwork and talking with me boss, Taesi was with me and being quite the stinker that day. She had people she goes and visit with at the hospital and of course they give her stickers and treats. Well she says to no one in particular "I am so spoiled, I am one spoiled little girl, I am cute so I get what I want." I was floored, and thankful no one really heard her!!!! An no this is not my doing. I called my wonderful sister Jennifer and gave her a talking to. You see she tells Taesi quite often that she is cute and that she loves to spoil her because she is a princess. Jennifer did admit she created a monster and then laughed.

YUMMY PIE!!!

2009-12-24T17:36:00.000-08:00

Kaeden finally got the Bannana cream pie that he has been asking me to make for a few months. Why bannana cream I don't know, but he sure enjoyed it!!!!

Thankgiving dinner

2009-12-24T15:54:00.000-08:00

Yes this is the boys peeling potatoes, (Chad, Jared and Dave)I think they finally figured it out that if they left everything up the may girls that Thanksgiving dinner might not happen until very late that night. Sometime we visit more than work, and most of the time we aren't so good at doing both at the same time.

Here is Kaeden at the big kids table.

And here we have Taesi at the little kids table.

Waiting for Thanksgiving dinner

2009-12-24T15:40:00.001-08:00

We had the May's Thanksgiving dinner in Cedar this year. Juliann happily offered her house for the party. We stayed at Melissa's house were it was quieter at night. It was a blast. Juliann's has a great back yard and the weather was beautiful so the kids played outside most of the time. I am very thankful for my family.

The little boys playing basketball. Someone must have kick them off the wii.

Taesi and Kira(Todd's youngest) watching the kids play basketball from a safe distance.

snow mobiling on a sunny day

2009-12-24T15:30:00.000-08:00

Now this is what snowmobling should be about. Taesi decided to stay and play with friend while Jared, Kaeden and myself went over by Juction to ride for the day. It was sunny and warm (around 35 degrees). We had a blast, however I am not so sure about the bundling up part.

Kaeden is so much like his father, anything outdoors is awesome!!!!!

Snow mobiling in the Snow

2009-12-24T15:25:00.001-08:00

Jared talked his mom into letting us borrow the snow mobiles for the winter, so after a week of working to get them start, they haven't been used for awhile, we were ready to try them out. Unfortunatly the red one did not want to start. So me and the kids rode the green one around while Jared worked on the other one. It was snowing and cold but we had fun. He did get the red one started and we went for a short ride before dark.

Taesi's 5th Birthday

2009-12-24T15:22:00.000-08:00

I can't believe my baby is 5 years old. She got this Awesome Princess bike. She got to have a party later that week which was a blast for her. 10 little princesses in one house, wow was that fun!!! She got a lot of lip gloss and body glitter, in which she has to put on each day before school. Yikes am I in for it or what.

Trick ir treat

2009-12-23T21:24:00.001-08:00

Here they all are dressed up and ready to go. We went to the truck or treat at Juliann and Melissa's ward. Lots of candy in little time. The only problem is that the kids aren't tired.

Taesi and Taylynn having a little snack. After we hit all the cars they were ready for more. So we went to a few house and got way to much candy. We did eventually tire them out and they all slept great that night.

Brandon and Kaeden waiting to go to the houses.

Kaeden's hidden talent

2009-12-23T21:23:00.004-08:00

At the Carnival they had a dance floor set up. I went to find Kaeden and here he was. What talent he has, I don't think I can do the hoola hoop this good. Look at that concentration.

Halloween Carnival

2009-12-23T21:23:00.003-08:00

As if Trick or Treating wasn't enough. We go to Cedar for halloween and this year there was a carnival at Brandon's school the night before. The kids got to play games and eat treats along with pizza for dinner.

Brandon, Kaeden and Collin doing the gunny sack race.

Kaeden & Football

2009-12-23T21:23:00.001-08:00

We took to an SUU game, he has started watching football at home with Jared. He has started to ask question and really understand the game. It is fun to watch. At the SUU game he asked where the yellow line was, all those of you that watch football on TV will understand. So Jared had to show him the chains on the side and explain how it really works.

pumpkin carving

2009-12-23T21:22:00.004-08:00

Here are our amazing pumpkins. The kids draw the faces, I get to clean them out and Jared gets to carve them. If you look closely Kaeden's is saying BOO.

Sister's Weekend

2009-12-23T21:22:00.003-08:00

What a wonderful weekend!!! My sister's and I leave our family's at our homes along with all our other responsibilities and go spend time with our parents. It is a weekend with lots of food, fun and laughter. We have a fondue party with a chocolate fountain, usually get pedicures and what ever else sounds fun at the moment. We go home feeling energized and ready to take on our worlds again!!

Chucky Cheese

2009-12-13T20:25:00.001-08:00

The kids had a great time at Jennifer's, of course. We took our kids along with Dominique, who slept with Taesi while we were gone and Brandon to Chucky Cheese. We had pizza and played for awhile. We went school shopping the next day and then headed home. Tired but happy to be in our own beds.

Camping

2009-12-13T20:18:00.000-08:00

Our last night. We found a great site by a river in Oregon, I think? We had a wonderful time. Can't wait for next years trip.

Up the coast

2009-12-13T20:11:00.001-08:00

We Spent the next few days working our way up the coast and eventually went across Washington and then back to Utah to pick up the kids. The coast beautiful, it wasn't at all what I had expected. We camped most nights, not to sure about the humidity everything was wet when we woke up each morning.

We stopped at the Tillamook cheese factory one morning and stocked up on some treats for the rest of the way home. That night we made it to east of Seatle to stay with my uncle and his family. I haven't seen them for a while it was great to be with them. All of their kids and their families came over for dinner. It reminded me of when they lived in St George and i used to fo and stay with them. It was definitely a highlight for me.

San Fransisco

2009-12-13T20:03:00.001-08:00

Jared's Uncle and Aunt who live in modesto, CA came our to San Fransisco and took us on a tour. We had a great time!! They took us all over the city and all a round it. The water was freezing!!!!!

Jared and his Uncle and Aunt.

This is look down at the golden gate bridge. We watch the fog roll in, something we don't see in Panguitch.

This is lombaro street? The crookedest street in America. The streets of San Fransisco are just fun. Jared was thankful we weren't on the bike!!!!!!

Gorilla BBQ

2009-12-13T20:00:00.001-08:00

Have you ever watched Dines,Drive-ins and dives? This is one of those places, it was great!!! The meat and sauce was amazing, and the owner was a crack-up. We actually planned our day around eating here and it was worth it.

He actually has BBQ tatooed on his nuckles.

Santa Cruz

2009-12-13T19:56:00.001-08:00

We stayed in Sanfrancisco for three nights the first morning we found a great scenic highway and made our way to Santa Cruz. It was a beautiful ride. The beach wasn't so bad either.

This is looking off the pier back at the beach.

On our way back to San Fransisco we saw this, there were tons of them. Parasurfing I think.

Motorcycle Trip 2009

2009-12-13T19:24:00.000-08:00

The day is finally here!! We left the kids in Salt Lake with Jennifer and we were off for 8 days of motorcycle riding. We went through Nevada and stayed at Lake Tahoe. It was Gorgeous, I am not sure if I have seen more beautiful scenery!! After Lake Tahoe we headed for California.

2009-10-17T13:30:00.001-07:00

Jared's Grandma was the Grand marshall for the Kanosh 24th of July parade. We put my leather on her and put her on the motercyle. She is such a good sport, and she looked great!!!

Trying to keep up

2009-10-17T13:27:00.001-07:00

I walked even slower that Jared when I was done!!!

He still has it!!!

2009-10-17T13:23:00.001-07:00

Yes he could still walk, slowly but still walking!!

Yuba Lake

2009-10-17T13:19:00.000-07:00

This is the first time is a few years that all of Jared's family has all been together. We had a great time. Here is all the boys except for Derek. We had a great time on the lake, a few sore muscles but no sun burns.

Hunter, Kyle and Kaeden.

Let's Go Hiking

2009-10-17T12:55:00.000-07:00

We had Matt and his family stay with us for a few days. We met Kyle and his family up at Brian Head for some fun. It was a beautiful day.

Here is everyone.

Kaeden, Nadia, Taesi, and Jada.

Alldredge Reunion

2009-10-17T12:49:00.000-07:00

We had my mom's family reunion in Fillmore at my uncles house. No, this isn't his house this is a cabin that my uncle and his family took apart and put back together at his house. It is one on our ancester homes from Oak City. Pretty cool huh!!

We have a family aution each year. This was Taesi's treasure.

We had so much fun with all the cousins.

Cedar City

2009-10-17T12:38:00.001-07:00

Me and the kids went to Cedar for the July Jamberee. The boys like all the cars, but the slide was the best.

Taylynn, Taesi, Kaeden, Collin and Brandon.

Balloon Glow

2009-10-17T12:33:00.001-07:00

Saturday night of the Balloon festival they shut down Main street and set tup the balloons at dusk and have the balloon glow. It is pretty cool, and is probably the best part of the weekend. You can get pretty close to the bakets and feel the heat.

It is fun to look down the street and see all of the balloons glowing. However this year I didn't get any good pictures of that.

The girls

2009-10-17T12:20:00.001-07:00

Taesi and Taylyn love to play dress-up. What beautiful princesses we have.

Dominique buried Taesi in the sand box. She had sand everywhere. A princess who loves to get dirty.

Street Games

2009-10-17T12:15:00.001-07:00

After the parade, there are games that the kids can play. Kaeden had a blast on the velcro wall.

Motorcycle Parade

2009-10-17T12:05:00.001-07:00

Along with the balloon festival Panguitch has a Motorcycle rally the same weekend. I think Panguitch doubles in size this weekend. They have a motorcyle parade, it is fun to see all the motorcycles. Jared decided to ride his and of course Kaeden had to ride along.

Looking good!! Kaeden says he is saving his money so that when he is 16 he can buy a motorcycle, so that he and his dad can you riding together.

Here is all of us except for Kaeden. Jennifer's kids still aren't to sure about the small town events. I thought they were going to have a heart attack when they found out we were walking to the parade, all three blocks!!

They only boys in a group of girls. Yes they survived.

Balloon Festival

2009-10-17T12:00:00.001-07:00

Every year Panguitch has their balloon festival. Each year we are lucky enough to have family come join us in the celebrations. This year Jennifer and her family came and Juliann came over from Cedar.

At about 7:00am the balloons are on the rise. It is fun to go the the launch site in our pj's and watch. Here is Taesi, Taylyn(Juliann's little girl) and Kaeden. Yes we are bundled up in June in panguitch, but only in the morning.

Getting wood

2009-10-17T11:42:00.000-07:00

We start getting wood for the winter. Here is Kaeden's first attept and cutting a tree. He was pretty excited.

I did it!!!!

4th of July parade

2009-10-16T20:22:00.001-07:00

Getting ready for the parade in Fillmore.

After the parade Fillmore has I guess what you would call a Carnival. There is tons of food and games. The kids had a blast. I think Kaeden waits all year for the dunk tank!! I lost track of how many time he and Hunter got dunked.

4th of July Fireworks

2009-10-16T20:10:00.000-07:00

Higgs Family Fire Works. They were Awesome, just ask the kids.

Trying to hang on

2009-10-16T20:00:00.000-07:00

The pictures tell the story, what more can I say!!

I can't tell if he is saying "rock on" or "loser?"

I took them a minute but they did finally catch up.

Fun in the Sun

2009-10-16T19:44:00.000-07:00

We spent the day at Delta reservoirs. It was a nice day and of course Taesi and Habor were inseparable.

Kaeden took Taesi for a ride on the paddle. Good thing the water is only 5 to 6 feet deep through out the whole reservoir.

Forever Friends

2009-10-16T19:38:00.001-07:00

We love our cousins. We spent the 4th of July in Fillmore where the kids got there faces painted.

Water Balloon Volleyball

2009-10-16T19:26:00.000-07:00

This is what we do in Kanosh. We played waterballoon volleyball. The kids had fun, but Grandma and Grandpa got tired of filling the water balloons.

Our little men. Look at those muscles!!

Rip Stick

2009-10-16T19:19:00.000-07:00

Have you ever tried a rip stick? Here is what Jared looks like trying one. He got pretty good going down hill.
