Our Newest Family Member~

Today, May 11th, Cody and I went and picked out

our new, sweet puppy girl.

 Here are all the sweet yellow labs we get to choose from.

 Which one will go home with us???

 The attack of the shoes!!!

 This is our girl!!!

 Already buddies. :-)

 Crystal, the breeder.

She is also the breeder we got our Yana girl from.

 The ride home wore her out.

 Of COURSE mom was ready with a few toys!

 So sweet!

Already fitting in.

competed with at Coach's invite and took 2nd place to.

Way to go Cody!!!

Jim and I took a road trip to St. George, Utah this weekend.

Bryce and Jessie were in the wedding party for their

friends Dallas and Becca who were married Sat. the 21st.

 After the evening reception at the Knox home

all four of us drove by the St. George Temple

to see how beautifully it lit up the night sky!

Definitely worth a stop!

 In four months Bryce and Jessie will be

getting married themselves!

We stopped by the next morning on the way out of town 

to enjoy a daytime view of the temple.

Just beautiful!

Another Wedding!~

his sweetheart Savanna!

 Their marriage took place in the Mount Timpanogos Temple

While in Utah I spent a few extra days

Never stopped talking....

Award Ceremony~

Cody was recognized once again for being a 

"Super Kid"

 As Mrs. Ramsey, Broomfield High's Principle,

shook Cody's hand, she told him she wanted to

see more dives and results like the ones she saw in the 

recent Broomfield Enterprise article!

Mrs. Ramsey knows and appreciates her students!

There they are, 2nd Semester "Super Kids" 

at Broomfield High School.

Cody's on the far right, gold shirt and white shorts.

Easter Buddy~

EASTER!

 We did an 11:00 decoration job the night

before Easter.  Not a bad quick effort!

 Cody had new competition hunting for eggs this year...

 I did a good job of keep them looking....

The spoils!

Target was sold out of solid chocolate bunnies,

I had to settle getting Cody a caramel filled, broken bunny.

He handled it just fine.

Spring Blossoms~

I am really appreciating being back in Colorado

for springtime to enjoy the beautiful blossoms

that are in our neighborhood!

Isn't spring just wonderful?!!
