Dyllon Broke his Wrist

Robert took the kids on a bike ride Sunday night to the park. The kids were playing on the play ground and Dyllon was doing the monkey bars. He starting swinging his legs up and his hands slipped and he fell. There was lots of gravel so it help soften his fall on his bottom but he tried to catch his self with his right hand. That night he kept complaining it hurt and we had a rough night so on Monday I took him in to the doctor and they did an x-ray. He smashed his big bone in his wrist and has to wear this until tomorrow and then he will get a hard cast. He is doing really good though. There has been a couple times that he wants to take off his black brace but all and all he does good.

Yummy produce!

Sorry I do not have any pictures I will take some next time. We are enjoying our garden already and love to eat fresh rasberries and zucchini. Today I picked our first yellow squash and that is part of our dinner tonight. I have made zucchini casserole and fried zucchini so far and I just picked another one today so tomorrow I will make zucchini bread. Last year I was not to good with our garden and I let our corn dry up to many times so we did not get that much and I did not weed very good. I am taking much better care of it this year. We are so blessed to have great soil and to grow a garden. I am excited to get fresh tomatoes soon and corn. We are aslo growing spahgetti squash and pumkins and green peppers. Plus my kids love all of it so that is a plus.

Air Show in Idaho Falls (Blue Angels)

Mom and Dad Hall came up this last weekend to go to the Air Show with all of us. They first stayed with John thursday night and then they came down and stayed with us friday night. Friday we went up and saw the windmills they are destroying our beautiful mountain side with. They are putting up another 80 or so more windmills up. There is already 40 something up there. They are cool looking but they make our mountains not so cool looking. On the way back down we went to Reeds Dairy for an ice cream cone and we parked along side of a road and watched one of the jets practice there stunts for the Air Show the next day. It was way cool. We then got back home and started cooking the ribs which were not done until everyone left so we ended up eating chicken and all the other food we had. The next day we went to Idaho Falls and got there 9 in the morning. We were aloud to bring chairs, personal size umbrellas for shade, and empty bottles so we could fill them up with the water they provided. It was way hot, and the water tasted like rubber. The food was way expensive and the lines were outrageous. The news has been doing stories on how the Air Show was GREAT, but the prices and lines were insane. We had a fun time though, and the kids enjoyed it. They did get winny at the end but we made it through. I am just glad that Robert dropped all of us off at the gate and then he parked at Charles and Annettes house. We did have to walk a mile back to their house but it was better then the 3 hours some other people had to wait to get out of the parking lots. The planes were awesome and we saw some pretty neat stuff!

If you look closely there is a woman on the plane, she road that way almost the whole time. This plane was going straight up at times and then spinning, going up side down, and all sorts of other stuff. She is one brave lady.

Matthew, Briann, and Dyllon sitting in a helicoptor. I only had my big lens on my camera so I could get some good pictures of the planes when they were flying.

Matthew earned his Bobcat!

Matthew had pack meeting last week so we all went down to the park and had a fun time. He is getting so big now. He went to a day camp a few weeks earlier and earned some fun badges there and he came home with a huge grin on his face. He loved every minute of it. He keeps asking when camp is again. He also earned his Bobcat badge! I am so proud of him and can't believe he is old enough to be in scouts.

Back Tracking

I found some pictures that I thought I would post that I thought I had lost on my other computer. First we start in April. Dyllon turned four and April 10th. He is getting so big. He is so excited to go to preschool this year! We love him very much and he is such a joy in our lifes.

Brianna had her dance recital in May. She loves dancing in Miss Jills class and has so much fun. I don't know if we will do dancing this year though because it depends on Roberts Job. Plus she says she wants to try Gymnastics so I might put her in that instead.

Brianna also had a birthday. May 21st she turned 6. She is excited to go to 1st grade this year, but will truly miss her kindergarten teacher. Mrs. Weist is a great teacher and Brianna loves her so much. Brianna asked if she could be her 1st, 2nd, and so on grade teacher. It was so cute. Both Matthew and Brianna will be going to the same elementary school and gone for the whole school day. What am I going to do?

SWIM LESSONS

These pictures are in the wrong order but oh well. Matthew, Brianna, and Dyllon all took swim lessons for the last two weeks. They all do great except for Dyllon. He did so amazing the first 4 days and then friday came and he wanted nothing to do with it. They cancelled Monday because their heater broke and then tuesday came and he still wanted nothing to do with it. I went in with him the next day in the Mother Tot class and he did great. The next day he returned to his class and did okay for the first little bit and then wanted out. Friday, his last day he did great again. They same and even put life jackets on them so they could go in the deep end and jump off the diving board, and he did it. He even went down the little slide they have. We have been enjoying the warm weather. Today though as been way windy so they have not been outside much today. They all want school to start and so do I!!

Its been a while.

So I know it has been a while since I have blogged. I don't have pictures yet because our computer crashed a while ago and I was without a computer for 3 weeks. We had a guy come to our house and see what was wrong with it and he took some parts with him to test them and bring them back with more parts to test in our computer and it was fried. So needless to say, we ended up buying a new computer. I don't have any pictures on this computer yet and am upset that my other hard drive has all my pictures on it. The guy is going to try to get the pictures off of it but it might not work. I pray it does. We don't have much planned for this summer since Robert still has no vacation time but we are still having lots of fun. Dyllon learned to ride his bike without training wheels so we all go bike riding together through the neighborhood. The kids love to be outside in this nice weather. They pretty much live out there. We put them to bed around 8 and they sleep until 8:30 to 9:30. Brianna slept until 10:30 yesterday morning. Next week all the kids start swimming lessons and they are all excited. Our strawberries and rasberries came back great and we planted some squash, corn, peppers, and tomatoes. We are hoping by the end of next week we should know if Robert is able to take the Journeyman Substation Test so he can get the job in Rigby. He has been studying a lot lately so hopefully he will pass. All and all we are just enjoying the warm weather and just hanging out. I also have been trying to bake more often and have been getting great recipes off the internet. I think I am starting to like cooking. Well I hope all is well with everyone and hopefully I can get some pictures up here soon.
