2025 Homecoming

Benjamin had a great time with his guys. They all went with friends so it was a chill night. He asked her with a Taco Bell Baja blast poster he made. They did pictures and dinner before the dance. Afterwards they all went to play games for the night. 

Emma and as asked by Carter with a cute bear. They went to first homecoming because they are in student council and hep rum the event. Emma spent hours getting ready with posters, hallways, events games and more. Always a ton of work on hoco month. 

The girls all got ready at our house before the boys came to pick them up. Everyone looked great. Jake even helped all the boys get their ties on and looking good. I took their pictures and we had so much fun getting the smiles and poses out. After the dance they went for ice cream, Walmart and games. 

Second hoco day was getting ready, then Charlotte got to take their pictures this time with fun hoco letters. The group did dinner and a movie. Loved seeing the kids have fun with all the activities. 

 

36, I think

 Birthdays are so fun and every year I have to remember how old I am. Don’t know how the time has gone by. I am very grateful and blessed. Love my people. For my birthday I went shopping with my sisters. Met Jake for lunch and had delicious pizza. Did more shopping and wore ourselves out. Taliah was even in town so all 5 girls and mom went to a movie. Jake spoiled me with shoes and clothes. Even got my late night reading club shirt I’ve been wanting. 

I had all the treats and goodies. We laid out by the pool and read books which is pretty much a top tier event. I went and played bingo with some of my girls and we chatted all night after. We even got a temple night during the week and were all together able to do sealings. It was a beautiful and spiritual night. I had a great birthday week, love you all. 

August

Jake and I took Navy and Noah on a lunch date for tacos. They are so fun and entertaining, growing up to fast. Benjamin got pulled up in age and made the 18 white team for volleyball. Navy also tried out for her school team and made it. She is so excited and wants to slam it just like her brother. I took a cookie class and made back to school cookies. We saw Gramps at a cousin mission farewell, always so fun to chat and catch him up on the crazy kids. 

We did a swim bbq at Jeff and Melissa’s house. I left and the kids stayed and hung out for the night. Noah and Jake were up at Mt. Charleston and Noah won the archery contest. I left the bbq early and headed to my friend Thay’s birthday party. Everyone had to bring a wig and then you picked a bag and that’s what you wore for the night playing Bunco. Super funny seeing everyone with all the crazy hair.

Grandma Deedee cousin night was game night this month. They all wore jerseys and she had prizes, games and food. 

Kids had so much fun and got crazy loud.

Grandma also took the four older girls out for dinner and craft night. They all made patchwork hoodies, Emma made stars and it turned out so cute. 

Noah got to go on a day trip to a behind the scenes rodeo. Kylee and Jordan took him up to Utah. They had so much fun seeing real cowboys and driving up the horses and back. Noah even got to take a ride on a horse and a bull! So scary to see that video come on, but he loved getting to try it. 

Friends, jumps, games seminary and racing. Our August was busy and fun.
