Catch Up Post

So I have been a big slacker with our blog the last few months. My computer has issues so I haven't been using it that much. We thought we were never going to see winter go away. It stayed cold here for so long but then when it did warm up it got hot. I feel like we skipped spring altogether. And now the summer is going so fast. It will be over before we know it. We went to Blanding to Grandma and Grandpa's for Easter. We went to Kindergarten round-up at the end of the school year to get the boys ready for kindergarten. They can't wait for it to start. They have been building a new Elementary School for the area where we live which will be ready for the start of school this year. All 4 of the kids will go to it.

Both Robby and Ranger have now lost 2 teeth. Ryder hasn't lost any yet and he isn't very happy about it. He wants to lose one so the tooth fairy can bring him money like his brothers.

We bought an older boat (1985 Cheetah) this spring and have spent a few months fixing it up. It now looks good. We just started taking it out on the lake. Its a lot of fun. The kids were scared at first when we would go fast but they got used to it. They had fun fishing from the boat. We now need to take the skis and tube and start playing in the water.

We went to our annual reunion (Bradford) over the 4th of July weekend in Blanding. It was great to see everyone. Usually there is always someone missing but this year everyone was there. We had a lot of family pictures taken. I will post them when I get them.

Rob's sister Valoree and her family have moved back to Utah. We are very happy to have them closer. Her husband Jason just started working for the same company Rob works for. He has been staying with us while he is here for work until they can find a place.

We are staying busy. It seems like I should get a lot more done but these kids and everything else keep me running. Rob's work keeps him busy so we try to spend what family time we can on his days off. We have a lot of fun going and doing things together. Rob is getting all their bows ready for them to start shooting. They all got new ones for Christmas but Rob hasn't had the time to get them going yet. The kids play outside pretty much every day. They ride their bikes nonstop. They have pretty much worn them out. They are such energetic, busy kids. There is never a dull moment at our house.

We are doing good. I will try to keep the blog more current.
