The fun continues in 2018






 Happy 12th B-day Adam.  Don't worry, he got a cake later.
April 13, 2018



We are so proud of Adam and that he was ordained a deacon.  He loves to be in young mens and pass the sacrament.

It has been special to be able to do baptisms for the dead with Adam.  I don't doubt Ryan is teaching these family members the gospel on the other side.

Date to the Ogden Cannery

The opposing team was short on players and so Ethan got to play against Adam.  Adam's team won, but it was an intense game.   Ethan played his best game ever.  He gave Adam a run for his money at times and it was fun to see the brothers go head to head.

We love you Ryan.  I can't believe it's been 6 years.  We love and miss you so much.  We are so thankful we are six years closer to being with you again!!


 
We enjoyed to day together as a family.  We attended Adam's game, visited the cemetery and went to dinner.  Afterward we played at home.  These bumper things were very fun and we all took turns.  We actually had four of them.  No one could get Mike down.  Sadly they aren't built for durability and we had to return them all, as they started to deflate after only a few times using them.

It was the end of the year 6th grade dance.  The theme was the 50's.  Adam changed shoes and flattened his hair when he got to the bus stop.  Silly guy.  He looked so cool !!


Watch out!!!!  She's official.  Jaime finally got her license.  She was so excited.  She's been doing great.  So far so good and she's only backed into a wall in our garage and broke the passenger side mirror.

The building of our shed.  It was a family/friend project.  Thank you for everyone's help and thank goodness know one was hurt.  It's so great to be able to move things from the garage into it.  Yeah !

Jaime and her art work.  We had many hot dog roasts afterward to burn extra wood.  Jaime is using the ashes.  Don't worry, we will be putting siding over it, so we just let her go to town.



My parents returned from their LDS mission in Okinawa, Japan at the end of May.  They brought these back for the kids.

Ethanson  (like Danielson from the Karate Kid)




Ethan once again lucked out.  Adam's baseball team was short and so Ethan got to play.  It was a double header and they lost the first game.  The second game was exciting and they came back in the last inning to win.  Of course, I had left right before because I figured they wouldn't have a chance to win.  Both boys scored after I left.  Go figure??

Ethan got a black eye two days before the wedding.  He had been at Kangaroo Zoo and bumped heads with his cousin while bouncing.  Poor guy.

The big day!!!!

 Alex and Kelsie Lott


 What a special day it was.  It also happened to be Jaime's 17th b-day.  She was happy to share her day because she was so excited to get a "sister".  Alex and Kelsie (Smith) met back in October.  We loved her from the start.  They got engaged at the end of January.  We are so thrilled to have her in our family.  She is a perfect fit.  We are so happy for them. 


Happy 17th b-day Jaime
We celebrated before the wedding at a park.



Boy am I glad he landed this.  I didn't let him do it again, just in case.

I love this.  It's so true.  We always need to trust him.  He loves us so much and knows what is best for us.


Ethan's piano recital.  Jaime was at girl's camp and so she missed hers.  Ethan did great.  It's such a blessing that he and Jaime love to play.

Jaime got her wisdom teeth out on June 28.  She was super scared but did very well.  She was a bundle of emotions when she came out.  It was sad at times to watch and at times we could hardly stop from laughing.  I have some great video and many crazy memories of this day.
 I finally had to stick my finger in her mouth to make sure she wouldn't bite her tongue.  With a mouthful of gauze she said it was "humongous".  It wasn't.  But it was funny to hear her talk and watch her.  She wanted to ride a horse and drive the car at one point.  She couldn't even walk and Mike had to carry her into the house.  she cried when we told her she couldn't have cookie dough ice cream because she couldn't chew the cookie dough pieces.  She said the doctor was nice until he "stabbed her with a needle" in her arm.  She was referring to the IV.  And she said there was a lot of blood from the needle.  There wasn't any.  She was totally out of it.



We camped the week of the 4th of July up in Emigration Canyon, Idaho.  It was beautiful up there and very peaceful.  On the 4th we went kayaking to Oneida Reservoir.  We had a blast.  Alex and Kelsie joined us for the day.  


 Yummy food Eth!!   Thanks.



We went on this hike to get out of the rain.  So did everyone else in Idaho.  It was packed and we had an hour and forty minute wait.

We forgot a few things and headed to the store near Bear Lake.



Poor Mike.  He was stirring our dutch oven potatoes and a potato flew out and landed on his ankle.  Crazy.  He got this huge blister that later I had to drain to relieve the pressure.  Watch our for flying hot potatoes!!!
