Kate's 1st Grade class

Mother's Day Reader's Theater


End of the year Music Concert.

I got to spend a bit of time in Kate's class. In the end I played Mrs. Foster's store with them. My last day with them they gave me this bouquet of edible flower's that they made. She had an awesome teacher and a great group of kids.
We were very blessed to have gotten Mrs. Helvik for a teacher she was great with Kate.

Our Little Piece of Heaven!

About 4 miles South of Laurel we have found a piece of ground that we are looking to buy. It is a 20 acre piece with water rights it is completely fenced and ready for our critters. We are renting it now for $25 a head and hope to buy it as soon as our house sells.

Kate Playing Soccer

Laurel Little League Soccer

She loved to play goalie!



Kate & Kadee
The both were in the same school class together this year and got to be on the same soccer team. She had a good time playing and was pretty aggresive. Fun to watch her play.

State Champions

Logan's Basketball team took State this year!
It was a neat experience the last time Laurel took state was back in 1972.
The town made a pretty big deal out of it all.
Pep Rally, Parades, Dinner every night for a week by a different business. They got the royal treatment.

In the middle picture he is second from the end. Sorry it's the best photo I have.

Spencer's 15th Birthday April 17, 2010

Spencer did not know what he wanted for his birthday and we did not know what to get him so we got a gift card to Cabela's.

Guess what he spent it on?







Fishing Gear!

He has his own pole and tackle box but it is in storage like everything else we own.

So he bought another. He has been fishing everday!
He goes to school then drivers ed., comes home and eats dinner and then is off for a couple of hours of fishing.

We live about 2 blocks from a pond one night he caught 15 fish. He just catches and releases them.

This Saturday we dropped him off at the Yellowstone River he caught a 15 inch German Brown. I sure enjoyed it! It was pretty good tasting!

His excitement has rubbed off on Kate & Levi so we went to Walmart and bought 2 more poles. This is how we are keeping ourselves entertained anymore. It makes for a great family home evening.

Kate's New Smile

It seems like every time we turn around Kate is loosing more teeth.
This is her latest look.
I am not sure how she can even eat.
