Batter up!

<
Isaac really enjoyed baseball this summer! It was a lot of fun to watch a real game where the kids really know what their doing! SO much different than T-ball. It was great seeing him enjoying himself and really getting quite good too!

Me vs. The Bathroom

Dunt Dunt Duunnn....
Oh yes, I won the battle with the bathroom. Even if I had to tile in the tub, I still got it done! woo hoo! And I guess Jake helped a little... :) (actually LOTS thanks honey!)

Tyla and Eesa

On our way home from helping the Holbrooks move into their new home, we stopped at the Lewis home. I thought this picture was hilarious. This is Kailey "wearing" tylers little wooden shoes key chain. :)
This is Tyler showing my boys some cool places on his mission on google earth.
Kailey LOVES her Lisa. Even if she doesn't always (ok, rarely)remember her name.

Little Rexy

So today our little Rexy went back to live with Heavenly Father. He was a sweet little puppy and was a wonderful member of our family. He will be missed... he had an accident while playing outside.While no one was around, he jumped off the top of a playset and forgot he was attached to a leash and never made it to the ground. :( Poor little guy. The kids are coping ok. We had a little funeral so I think they are getting some good closure. It makes it easier for them to know that hes running around up in heaven..

Bryce Canyon 5K / half marathon

Pictured: Dani Sorensen, Anna Geddes, Desi Holbrook, Bitty Miner, April Miner (ME!), and Sierra Miner

So Des and Bitty had just finished the race in the 1st 2 pics, so I thought I would put one up of them not about to fall over. :)

So the 5K was a lot of fun! Dani, Anna, Me and Sierra did that race, and Bitty and Desi did the half marathon. It was a great experience one that I highly recommend! We stayed the night at "Harolds" which had AWFUL food and freaky weird service! But the cabin we stayed in was just dandy. The run was fun and SO beautiful. Lisa next year you should come do it with us. And anyone else that would like to! Desi was trying to get me to do the half marathon next year, but hey, I know my limits! :)

Holbrook Campout 2009

Well we had a splendid campout up at Beaver Mountain in Logan. It was beautiful, quiet, and even had showers! It was a nice relaxing time spent with people we love. Food was great, company was great, and we made some wonderful memories. You always know its a hit when your kids tell you it was "the best time of their whole life"! Pretty cute. Here are a few photos just to make you jealous that you weren't there to spend this awesome weekend with us. :)


what campout would be complete with out a round or two of Goin' on a Bear Hunt?!


Kailey and I enjoying the campfire


There was a rad fort in our campsite that was a lot of fun for the kids!


The Holbrook Boys playing a little bolo ball. (I think thats what its called...)


I debated on which photo to post of lil' Joe. I had so many great ones! From him trying to carry wood to the fire pit or blowing on the ashes to get the fire going. But I think this one takes the cake. The older kids and the dads got to go for a horse ride through the mountain and the littler ones were lead around the pasture so they could participate too. So funny! I love that the sun is shining through his adorable ears. :)


Jake leading Livy around on a beautiful white horse. So princessy!


Auntie Lisa squeezing on Kailey Rose


How cute are they?! Little BFF's!


Lily and Logan making beautiful drawings which they later sold at their art show! They had their art displayed in a gallery (grandmas clothesline) and made a handsome profit! (2 candy bars per picture!) They are so creative. I love it!

Spoon full of sugar...

Okay, so Olivia is hilarious. She is the one on the far right that can't figure out where her tutu goes! Under her chin? On her hips? Who knows! I can't help but smile during this whole video. This is one of the dances she did at her Dance review for Dance Magic. Enjoy!
