Family Wagon

Well, we decided to get a bigger vehicle for the growing family. The kids are enjoying all the room inside. It doesn't have the power locks, window, etc. but we are okay with it. Having the room will be nice.

He was excited for this special Day..

Alma 53:20

And they were all Young Men, and they were exceeding Valiant for courage, and also for strengh and activity: but behold this was not all-they were men who were true all times in whatsoever thing they were entrusted. Yea they were men of truth and soberness, for they had been taught to keep the commandments of God to walk uprightly before him.

The proud Mom.

He's growing up so fast. He's such a joy to have in our home.

Father like Son.

Bishop Pickard


The Young Men in the Ward....

Some of them were able to stand in. Dad ordained him.
They are all a fun group of boys.

Happy Easter

Every year our community has a Easter egg hunt. There was over a 1,000 eggs. Only those who were under seven could hunt for the eggs. And the Easter bunny came to visit. The kids had a great time. There were little prizes in the eggs. But the boys were alittle disappointed that there wasn't any candy.

Coloring eggs.

We decided to tie-die the eggs this year. It wasn't has fun, But I think the next year we will stuck to the old fashion way. Just using the colored water in cups. But we did have a fun time together.

The race is on!!!!

They came back with about 6-7 eggs. I know its not much. There were a lot of kids and the boys were taking there time. The parents could not help them.

Happy Birthday Josh

The Big 12.

After the day at the beach we came

home had dinner, opened presents and had Pie.

Of course I had to make his favorite dessert.

Fresh Strawberry Pie.

Yes, now we need to work on the beach body. Ha, Ha. Well, football starts up in the next couple of weeks so we need to get ready for that. Football is a lot more serious so we better be ready.

We decided to get him snorkel gear. Their is a place called Red Reef in Boca Raton. It's only about 20-30 minutes away. It's suppose to be one of the top places to snorkel. It's free. You just pay for the parking. The Reef is shallow so the little boys will be able to snorkel as well. And see some beautiful tropical fish. We are excited.

We love You Josh!

Sea To Shinning Sea

For Joshuas Birthday we went to Key Biscayne. It's a small beautiful island. We went for the day. The weather was great. We all got our first sun burns. Gabe and Kyndra are the worst. But the rest of us are okay. And of course David is red, like always. We still had to cover him up with the towels. Wimp. I hope he gets somewhat of a tan eventually. We saw an awesome lighthouse, the kids over 8 could go up to the top. They said it was very windy and really cool. They counted the stairs and there was 110 stairs. Of course, Gabe, Micheal and I stayed below. David was able to get some great views of the beach and of Miami. We thought Andy would love this picture. He was in our thoughts this day.

We live in a Beautiful Place !!!

Father like son.

Micheal is not sure of the ocean yet. He's a little scared of the sharks. They both kept covered and enjoyed the sun.



Our beach babe!




Gabe making sand dunes for his cars and trucks. He didn't like the taste of the ocean water, but it didn't take him long to get use to it. They all love the ocean.

Way to Go

Gabe is always trying new things. He just figures things out on his own. One day he wanted to learn how to ride the rip stick so first he got on, held onto the car and went down the driveway to get some speed. He got further each time. Now he's pro. He is so good at everything he does. He just doesnt' have any fear.

He even smiled for the camera.

We love you Gabe!

Field Day
