Shelby T-Ball 2008! Nic and I coached her team, it was a lot of fun and work!

Gardening 2008!

The kids decided that they wanted to help plant the garden this year!

Lilly 2

Shelby likes Lisa's bird so much that for Christmas last year Santa brought her a toy bird. She named it Lilly after Lisa and Matt's bird! We went to stay with Lisa and brought Lilly 2, Lilly the first didn't like Lilly the 2nd! She jumped off her perch! This is Wyatt with Lilly 2!

It took a bribe of 10 bucks from Aunt Lisa, but Colby finally held Lisa's bird Lilly! It was only for 2 seconds though, right after I took the picture he practically shoved the bird on me! It was pretty funny! Shelby is enthralled with the bird but will not get very close!

More pictures of Hogal Zoo!

Colby and Garrett! Garrett belongs to my brother Matthew and his wife Lisa! He's a funny kid!

Hogal Zoo! Left to right: My Dad holding Kenzie, Shelby, me, Jordan (Matthew's oldest) , my brother Matthew and his son Austin!

Hogal Zoo June 2008

Our trip to Hogal Zoo this year! We went with the Gleed family! Nic wasn't able to go he was camping in the rain at camp Bartlett with the scouts! We missed him though!

Nic and Shelby! Shelby thinks she is so big because she has the reins in her hands! Nic is actually leading the horse with a lead rope!

Colby and his horse Honey! Notice the saddle; as Colby gets older and bigger I loose more things to him! Just kidding! But that is my saddle that he is riding! He is too big for a kids saddle and not big enough to fit in any of his dad's saddles, so we made a few extra holes in the stirrups for him. It fits him pretty good!

This is one of Nic's favorite pictures, so I thought that I would put it up for him! This is last fall up at the farm checking fences before we get the cows off the range!

Minor League!

Colby has become quite the little ball player! He made the Allstar team this year! He is really excited!

Fun with Wyatt!

Richard and Wyatt! Wyatt wasn't quite sure what to think of Richard! He kept poking his lip out like he was going to cry!

The many pictures of Nic ignoring me and the camera!

Mom's little cowgirl! Shelby and KC 2008! Shelby loves horses and is getting braver every time she rides!

Branding 2008!

Branding cows 2008. Nic, my brother Richard and Uncle Larry! First year that Aunt Barbara missed branding, we sure missed her!

Colby, Harlee, and Keyton at the farm!

Up at the farm with the baby calves this winter! Colby, Shelby, and Keyton.

Shelby received a prize this school year for her safety poster! I was really surprised that she got up in front of the whole school!

Nic decided to come down the hill with him and they wrecked at the bottom!

This is him coming down the tubing hill.

Colby participated in a cardboard sleigh race down Montpelier's tubing hill, Nic and the city crew built a sleigh that looked like a dozer with a plow on it! Colby took 3rd place!

Our little "knuckle dragger"!

This was Colby's 2nd year of boarding school at Pine Creek! Erin and I went with him a couple of times, he is getting pretty good!

Shelby really loves to help clean the house! She is always asking what she can clean, I gave her a rag here and told her to wipe off the table. As you can see she really gets into her work!

Its a good thing that our kids like horses, they probably wouldn't of had a choice!

"Lift me up Shelby"! Colby really thought that Shelby could boost him up onto KC's back! It was quite comical!

Erin and I skiing at Beaver Mountain! I ski and Erin snowboards!
