#26

How old do you think dad is?
Easton- 8
Mason- 3
Justin turned 26 this year!!! He always teases me about being older, but if you ask the boys who is smarter they always say mommy! So I guess wisdom comes with age:)
For Justin's birthday we went up Rock Canyon and had cookout with family and friends. It was a lot of fun to sit around and visit with everyone. I had classes all week, so I wasn't home during the day, but Justin met me in Huntington and we went and ate at Cindi's Cafe. It was really yummy!
Love you Justin, more than you will ever know!

This is an update for the last few weeks.... We have gone to the pool a few times and hope to go a lot more!!!I love this picture. Mason finally has gotten the courage to go down the green slide by himself!! He is so PROUD! The boys have been enjoying the warm weather and being able to play with their toys that they got for Christmas. It's a lot easier to dig in dirt and gravel than it is in snow! We are in the process of building a swingset for them to have as well.
Justin had to go to Vernal for 3 days to help students with Stockshow. We went last year and had a blast so we were super excited to go again. We told the boys we would go swimming, however they were SO naughty that we didn't take them! I think Justin was more disappointed than the boys were. We had a good time though, and look forward to next year!
The other morning my dad came and woke us up to come help pull a cow out of the mud. Stupid thing was trying to eat the cattails and sunk!! We ended up have to dig underneath her to tie a rope around her. I drove the backhoe to pull her out while Justin and my Dad worked on her. She was pretty exhausted after getting out and didn't want to get up. She quickly changed her mind after she got a nice volt of electricity from the cattle prod!
Easton had his last t-ball game. He is pretty sad he has to wait a whole year to play again. Easton was pretty excited that he got a trophy though!
Easton and Mason wanted me to take pictures of them with Meah...
Justin and I went to St. George for the weekend to go to Tuachan. We went and watched Tarzan. It was amazing!! We enjoyed every bit of it. Love the set, and the location! We always promise the boys that we will get them something if they are good for Grandpa and Grandma. We ended up buying this cute toy from Target and the boys have had a blast playing in it!
** We caught the Blow Snake again... We hauled it away again... We took it clear out to the motocross track... It came back... AGAIN... Seriously that is one motivated snake!
** While driving on the way home from Provo Mason starts telling Knock, Knock Jokes that make no sense. Justin starts laughing at him and Mason tells Justin, "Dad don't be so serious. It's just a joke!" Uhm ya!

This week has been super busy! Between the funeral for Gardner, and getting ready for my first coupon class, I am so ready for a break! Good thing that this week we are heading to Vernal to go to Stock Show for 3 days!
This week Easton and Mason's cow had a baby. They were both super excited and whenever we go down to feed they have to find it, pet it, and make sure that it is okay. Justin and I took the boys to the Musuem. At first they were super scared and kept begging us to go home. They weren't too sure of the dinosaur bones! But after some persuasion and encouragement they decided that it wasn't too bad. They especially liked the part where they got to dig for dinosaur bones.
Mason has been such a stinker to get to sleep. He stays in his crib and everything, but he is constantly needing a drink, something to eat, a hug, a toy to sleep with, or he is just jumping on the bed. The other night I was losing my patience really fast and told him that if he didn't stop jumping I was going to throw his crib in the garbage. Mason quickly muttered under his breath to Easton, "Mommy and Daddy aren't strong enough to throw my crib in the garbage." Honestly, what are we going to do with him!?!
