Grandma Beazer's 80th Birthday!

Last weekend we went up to Idaho to spend Grandma's 80th birthday with her. On Thursday we got out the Go Cart and took it for a spin then we took the kids to Bear World to see all the Big Bears roaming around and to see the animals in the petting zoo.  That night we pulled out the train and took the kids for a couple rides around the track.  On Friday we went into Jackson Hole, Wyoming to see the Bar J Wranglers and spent some time going through the shops.  On Saturday we celebrated Grandma's birthday at Syd's church in Rexburg.  The kids had a blast running around and the rest got to enjoy a little friendly game of basketball and volleyball.

Demo Event at Wheeler!

Wheeler Machinery had a Demo Event to demonstrate how their equipment works.  The employees and their families got to take rides and play on some of the stuff.  They served hotdogs  and hamburgers and had a live band.  They had drawings and some freebies.  They also had one of those big blowup bouncey things for the kids to play on.  We had a really good time!

Riley's 1st Birthday!!

Riley turned 1 on Saturday May 9th.  She had a big turn out of family to share this special occasion with!  She got tons of cute summer clothes and some fun toys also.  She wasn't quite sure what to think about her cake and ice cream until she took a bite and then she LOVED it!  We had to put her in the tub afterward to clean her up!   After all her guests went home she even helped to clean up the mess!

Work Day At Grandma Beazer's!!

We went up to Grandma Beazer's in Rigby, ID last weekend. We spent Saturday cleaning up her yard and getting it ready for spring. We picked up pinecones, mowed the lawn, power raked the lawn, pruned trees, tilled the garden, cleaned out irrigation canals, cleaned out the raspberries, and ate a ton of food!!! Carson and Riley loved it! Riley was really helpful when we were picking up the pinecones, she would pick up one blade of grass at a time and put it in the wheelbarrow! They bought the kids hats and hankerchiefs to wear for the train rides that we took when we were all done and Carson was in seventh heaven! The weather was awesome despite all the forcasts and it was great to see Grandma and spend time with the family!

Carson Turns The Big 3!!!

Despite having a slight case of the flu early Saturday morning, Carson's party was still a hit! He had a Dinosaur party and got lots of cool gifts! He got some cartoons, a truck flashlight, clothes, dinosaurs, a sand and water playland, Cars tray to eat on, and coloring stuff. His favorite part was wacking Grandpa Bruce with the balloons!
