Cooper and Football

Two things I know were destined to be together. Playing baseball, Coop says, "Mom, what do you do when you're just not good at it?" So, he was done with that. Playing basketball Coop says, "Mom, why do they keep calling fouls on me?" I reply, "Well, you can't tackle them honey." So, he was done with that. "How about we play football?" Winning! Not the team, they stink, but Coop loves it and is working hard and improving with each game. I love watching him. I love football.

Moving On...

Blakes off to new experiences. It's been a true definition of bitter sweet.

What would a send off be without a homemade sushi night? I will miss our impromptu dates.

 When I came home from work.....this is what I came home to....emptiness :(

 Curtis was able to be home and see our boy off:)

As well as these two rascals on their first day of school.....love.

Sand Hollow

I LOVE, LoVe, lOvE, love, this place.....St. George. The heat, water, red rock, and palm trees are totally my style:) This is our last family vacation before Blake goes to school! Five minutes into the drive and we didn't think we would make it without killing eachother:) To top it off, Blake got sick (food poisoning?) and was completely out the whole day! Still, we made some more memories together.

 18 yr Anniversary! Wow

Jackson Hole

Fun Brackett family trip to Jackson Hole. We stayed at April's families cabin....so fun! The boys really miss the wide open spaces, especially Coop, he was in heaven. 

The Quirings are Back!

Our good friends, the Quirings, moved back....and we are so excited. The twins are the same age as Coop and they couldn't be more made for eachother. Ian and Chase are similar with their easy going nature and are great big bro's. Tatum....well, she's mine. Sweetest thing ever. And, we love spending time with Jason and Nicole.

While Jason and Nic unpacked.....we ate snowcones.

Tots and I did hair and nails while the boys killed eachother outside.

Look what she made! It was her first time sewing and we didn't have to "undo" a thing:) She was so proud and I was in heaven doing girly things with the Taters.

The boys did a great job creating creating the football field. The Viking is impressive...however, between the 3 of them, you'd think they could spell Minnesota. 

A fun Summer day with our friends!

Deer Creek

We had an awesome day on the boat at deer creek with our friends. Cooper learned how to knee board...the first time! And they got bounced and thrown from the tube a couple times too. It was a beautiful day in the canyon.

Utah Select 13U Champs!!!

I love watching the Chaser play baseball. He is so crafty, smart, dedicated, and has skillzzzzz when it comes to baseball. His team won the championship for their league...it's been pretty fun watching them all grow.

Father's Day 2013

Father's Day...one day is not enough...everyday I am grateful for the Father's in my life and my boys'. They have so many great examples to learn from. My boys have a Dad that loves them unconditionally, continually, and unwavering. And, I love my Daddy more than words can say.
