Picture update

I really do wish I could have more time in a day to do all the things I want to do!  One of those things would be to keep my blog updated.  Once again it is an update in pictures.  I have just decided that I need to be happy with that.  Not working- not happy with that yet.....maybe one day when life slows down I will have time to sip lemonade on the front porch holding hands with Jim on our cute rocker bench and keep my blog updated!  A girl can dream!  (Note to self-- get that rocker bench that you have been wanting for YEARS!)

 Me and my boy (Yes i am short)

 Love our kids

 Welburn Gourd Farm in California.  Jim and his Uncle Doug.  Loved our visit!  Uncle Doug tried his hand at growing food for people to eat and selling it.  When he switched to growing something people do not eat, he actually did quite well for himself!  Go figure.  (Google Welburn gourd farm)

 Spending time with Grandma Laureen.  She is truly beautiful on the inside and out!  Miss her.

 Pictures like this make me love this man more and more. 

 You guessed it... Bate brothers again!

 Excuse the heavenly glow coming from Jim's aura.  Makes the picture a little bright!

 This turned out to be a great relaxing day at the park with Grandma. (minus Brady and Jim who were playing golf at the course Jim worked at during high school)

 Grandma and I sat and visited while the kids cooled off!

 This one is for Jake.  We actually saw this from a distance and thought of how we have to take a picture for him!

 Jake this is Cameron risking his life to get a good picture for you. ( He almost lost an arm!)

 Aunt Jackie came to visit and we all loved it.  We miss her laugh and hugs.

  She grew up in our home when we were little and is more like a sister.  Hope she comes again soon. She served a mission in New Zea land years ago and ever since then we say this every time we are together  "Ote alofa au ei te ohi!"  ( I really butchered the spelling I am sure) it means I love you!

 Easter 2011.  I have lots of pics but this gives you the idea.  How do you get your teenage sons to still want to hunt for eggs?  Fill some with money!

As you can see I added more than pics.  If you see my kids walking around in dirty clothes tomorrow just smile and know that I updated my blog! (well seeing how I ended with Easter and it is now the end of June maybe I should not celebrate yet)  Perhaps you will see Junes pics in Dec!
