Silly Tilly Goose

Kaydence is always being a goof!!!!She loves to pose for the camera. She stole johns hat in the first picture and said whats up guys. Then we were camping and she had to have her sippy and new baby with her any time she went on her 4 wheeler. Then we have been working on potty training and she wanted to put both pair of undies on at the same time. ha ha. then she ran around say "penguin walk penguin walk".

Kaydence Turned 2

Kaydence is so much fun to have in our home. She can push all my buttons at the same time.

She was lucky to have such a fun bunch of people come to our home for a BBQ birthday. My parents, John's parents, Grandma Rene, Zack, Mindy, Atley and her NEW little brother McCoy, Scott, Steph and Casen, Cody, Ali and Maddy and out of state"ers" Teresa and Doug, Randy and Sharon. Sorry if you came and didn't get listed. SO with all these party goers meant TONS of gifts!!!! Kaydence was so funny she was super careful with each gift and wanted to take a break after opening it. I think the main thing was I got my old kitchen out and cleaned it up, and bought new pans, food and things for it. My parents got her a new bike she is still figuring out). She also got TONS of panties... our next milestone i guess. I made Kaydence a Mini Mouse Cake this year. I thought it turned out well. It was a lot easier this year with both hands(last year my wrist was in a splint).

Thanks everyone who came, and brought gifts and helped out with food.

I'm starting something!!

Well as most of you know I have taken a huge leap into the small business world! I am starting my own dance studio this year. I have got my business licence and building, it is probably the scariest thing I have ever done(& that is scary I am married to John who is like evil con evil). I went to the previous owner of Dance Works studio to see if I could take over, ans she seemed more than excited that I wanted to step in her place. We decided to have a meeting with all the other teachers and an other teacher wanted in also. so all in all Jeana couldn't hurt one of our feelings by choosing 1 rightful owner so it came down to pick a number and the person who won called the coin toss. Well the other lady won the number and called the right way on the coin toss so she won the studio! I am very excited for her and I wish her the very best.
But it kind of left me with the option of teaching with her or doing my own thing. So I decided to go out on my own. I have been busy finding a studio, getting my mirrors, cleaning up my studio, and Advertising! We did 3 parades over 24th of July and handed out over 400 flyer's( that was all I ordered) I am very excited to announce Stepping UP Dance Studio will be starting class the week of August 23rd. check out the studio blog for more info, registration forms and anything else you may need. steppingupdancestudio.blogspot.com

Mountains and rodeo!

We went up the canyon with Ken & Lindsi, Her brother James and all our kids. They filled the back of the truck up with bean bags and blankets, so the kids James and John rode in back and Ken Lindsi, Gunner and I rode in front. It was a nice trip up to some waterfalls.

Ken and his cute family!

Our little family.

Playing in the water.
I was the assistant girls camp director this year for our ward. It was so much fun. I forgot my camera, but we spent 4 days up fairview canyon at Camp Shinob.

John's company had their 2nd annual golf tournament the day I got back from camp. So I showered and headed over the Palisade's golf course. We had some of our Bountiful friends down so John decided to get the boat and take them to the res. Kayde and I stayed home, we were tired, and she had gotten an ear infection while I was at camp. They got back from the lake and we headed to the UTE STAMPEDE. One of my favorite rodeo's! I have went almost every year since I was 16.

Ute stampede, I did the money race( they throw out about $100 in 50 cent pieces in the stadium after the rodeo) I got 3 dollars.

They had some very cool Motorcycle trick riders I have never seen.

4th of July

We had an action packed fourth. We started out with going on a 4-wheeler ride on the 3rd with Tim, Hilary, Rich and Cory. While my parents watched Kaydence.We didn't get pictures, but it was really neat we rode up the mountain and watched fireworks from about 5 different towns! Then we got up to go to the parade. Gunnison's parade is awesome (at least I think it is) It is over an hour long! Kayde loved it and with the help of her grandpa Mark she had tons of candy.

We finished up at the parade and headed to the lake. Kayde loved tubing. she really just loves anything to do with water. I was able to wake board. which also means I wreaked so hard I don't remember getting back into the boat, but I did get a few good bunny hops. We cleaned up the boat and ourselves and it was time for Manti's Fireworks. We went the the high schools football grandstand and watched them with patriotic music playing and the Beautiful Manti Temple Glowing in the back ground. This was a first for me and It was SO SO cool.

The Grand Marshals( The Dyrengs) It was excited to have some one close to us the GM's of the parade.

Kayde showing off her treats.

chilling on the boat.

Fireworks over the temple hill. SO cool.

Twilight

I was so excited to get an invite to go with a group or girls to the Eclipse movie. Most everyone was from Ephraim, there were about 22 of us. we went to dinner in Nephi then to the new theater over there. It was a great outing with new Friends and tons of laughs!

Steph, Rachel and me waiting for the movie.

all of us all settled in. we were the only ones waiting to get in. haha. it was a few days after the premire, so I guess everyone had already seen it but us.

Kayde is so dang active. I found her like this I had to get a picture befor she new she was caught. She is a climbing, jumping bouncing 22 month old! I love mostly every second I have with her.

Reunion TIme

We had a fun and busy June. It was from 1 event to the next. Kayde and her little cousin Atley spent lots and lots of time together.

swimming. Grandma Delene took her and Atley.

4- Wheeling at the coates reunion up Scofeild. Atley was a great driver.

I put Kayde in our local mini miss pagent. She got a little crown and a t- shirt( it is a fund raiser for the Miss Gunnison Pagent). They all won ha ha.

She couldn't wait her turn. She loves the spot light.

The interview. This was so dang funny, they all fought over the mic at practice then the night of they would hardly talk. Oh but Kayde made some silly story up about her arm being hrut. " oh my am, it hurt " it was cute.

My 5 year class reunion, I can't believe it has been that long already. yup this is the only picture I got. haha. There was about 30 ish that came. It was fun to see everyone that came, and everyone's kids.

And can you belive we missed out on a few adventures to.
