relay for life

i went and particpated in the relay for life this past saturday. it was an awsome experience. i walked the track for an hour. i think i did 2 to 3 miles. it was awesome just to see how many people wanted to support the cause and get out to help. so many there had been affected by this nasty disease. i am just glad i was able to be there and feel the vibe of love that was in the air.. it was awesome and i will definitly do it again..

lake front property

my grandma's property is right next to the snake river, which of course is above flood stage this year..well this it what her yard does. it has happened the past few years. we love going out there and enjoying the water and being outside. this kids think it is a blast. hopefully things will be ok and it wont get any worse. in 97 it was really bad and it got into her basment. the experts say this year it could get that bad again with all the snow still up in the mountains. well i quess we shall see but for now we are having fun..

he is a walker...

emmett has been taking steps for a month now but is really starting to take off and i am loving it...i think he is too. it is so cute to watch him walk/waddel..he is so proud of himself.. also with in the past few days he has figured out that he can climb. he is climbing everything.. couches, tables, and chairs.. kinda scary and he is definitly not afraid...A-

baby fruit

so i am super excited. i have baby plums in my tree. wahoo.. i was kinda worrried because i really trimmed the tree back last year but nope i got plenty. plus i will have plenty of peaches and apples oh and pears too.. thanks to my moms trees. i cant wait to can it all.... well maybe i can wait to can it all...

stupid wheather

so i am blamming my awful grouchy attitude to this yucky wheather we are having. we had a beautiful day yesterday until the winds changed and the storms came in. today i woke up to cloudy skies and rain. ugh..this sucks..it is supposed to be sunny and nice not this crap we are in. so it does not help when my kids get all whiney cuz of this wheather either. maybe i just need to get away instead of complain but omg i want sunshine. anyway i am grouchy today..sorry world..A-
