Boston's Birthday!

I have a whole bunch of pictures for Boston's Birthday.I love this of her.
She was not willing to behave for her picture. It was a good thing that Celeste was so good.


She really wanted to show her panties to the camera.

She has brought so much joy to our family. All the kids love on her and her dad melts when she wants something. you just can't help yourself. We wont be in trouble one day. LOL

I thought I would show some of what she looked like as she became the ripe old age of 3.
She has many pic's with marker on her face. I hate to say she loved them and was really good at finding them. I think her brother is the one that started it all. She was to young here to do it her self.
She was so cute.


I guess she thought it was a huge lip gloss.


I love this, she is green and the grass is so green.



They were at Bear lake just hanging out.

Orange ink pad.
Brown ink pad. Look at how proud she is.

This was at her Birthday in the hotel. She said she was the Princess.


The big Santa in the Hotel. It took some talking to get her to stand by him





She got a baby for her birthday. I couldn't pack the salon I got her so we got her something to open in the Hotel.


Keely and her mom got her a little something too.



Her cake and Ice cream
I tried to win tickets to Elmo for Boston for her Birthday. I didn't But a friend did and ended up not going so offered to them to me. Thanks Jana.


Boston and Sofie where so cute they held hands. I love how much she loves Sofie.


She hated it when they would come down to close.





She informed me that she only liked the girls. She is such a girl.

Boston and her best friend.
Boston You have brought so much joy to our family we love all your spunk and how girly you are. I love you my little Princess.

Our annual trip

Our annual trip to Salt Lake to see the lights started a little different this year. Alek decided to wrestle this year. So this Sat Alek had a wrestling tournament in Ogden. He did really well he took 1st in his weight division.
While we were at the tournament we got the chance to get picture's and autograph with Gregg Godfrey. Don't worry if you don't know who he is I didn't either. He rides motorcycles with Travis Pastrana. He also makes the Nitro Circus and movies with Travis. One of my boy's favorite movies from them is Thrillbillies. I blame these guys for my Braydons passion for crazy stuff. Braydon told us one day that he wanted to get a bike and do a "no hander, 180, back flip."Well I'm not sure but I think that is impossible. He has a bike now and I worry a little every time he gets on his bike.

The pictures are not the best we had good intentions to take our good camera but we forgot it so we had to resort to taking pic's with our iPhone.

Braydon had Gregg Godfrey sign his sleeve of his shirt. If you notice his pinkies they are so crooked.
Braydon took a picture of Aleks Medal.

We went to the Ogden mall after wrestling so the kids could find more Christmas. They had this ride for the little kids in the mall. This mall has become our new favorite mall. It had Cinnabon and cool rides. Those are big. ; )

We stayed at the Marriott in Ogden and let the kids swim then a big breakfast at Jeremiah's for huge pancakes then on to Salt Lake . We always go to Cabela's so here we are at Cabela's and any time Boston finds the cooking stuff we have to stop and play cooking. Then on to the Gateway were we let the kids go to the arcade and play games, walk around , get hot cocoa, and eat dinner.

On to our last stop before we came home the lights at the temple. I always love to see the lights.

We go see the statue of Christ every year. I think that is my favorite stop.

We tried to get pic's of them at the light's but they turned out badly. But at least we have something.

Boston fell asleep as we walk to see the lights. I'm sure she would of loved all the lights.

Look at Shi with all the personality.
I always love our annual trip to see the lights.

This year I participated in the Wasatch Back and the Vegas Ragnar. It was fun, hard, and a spiritual experience. I loved every minute of it.
The Vegas Ragnar was not put together as well as the Wasatch was it was there first year. They didn't have schools to sleep in so a few of the tough guy's sleep on the ground.

This is one of my exchanges. I had some freaky guys follow me for a little while during this leg. there were not as many team in this race so there were not as many people running near you. I was all alone on a stretch of road and they pulled over it scared me enough that I stopped running and was going to turn back to get the guy behind me. Then at that point a car came over the hill i stopped them and asked them to ask the men to leave cause they were making me nervous. They were mad and honked at me when they went by.


We had a 15 passenger van. We drove it down the strip in Vegas just like this with all the writing on the window. It was awesome people were just staring.



Thanks to Travis's awesome driving Desi got car sick. Nothing we gave her helped and we tried a lot.

This was from the back of the van going down the strip. We had 13 people in it.
We got to stay at the Red Rock Resort for free. I recommend this hotel it was really nice. It wasn't on the strip but it would be worth the drive to the strip.
