Trip to Arizona

On the way down we stayed overnight in Vegas.  Rog talked me in to walking over to the Tropicana.  I put $2.00 into a penny machine.......and Viola !  Of course I cashed it out immediately - Yea me !

We went down to AZ 2 weeks early to celebrate this girl's birthday !  She had to show us her AWESOME Science Project.  What a great job Cam !

Checking out Manda's Blendtec.  I. WANT. ONE.

Cam and Cam - LOVE THEM !


ONE of the reasons we went two weeks early :)


Riding the lite rail from Mesa to downtown Phoenix to Chase Stadium.

It was ZOMBIE NIGHT! at Chase Field - the kids were PUMPED :)







Outside the stadium - Rog sporting his St. Louis cap

Right after we got there, and during batting practice, there was a ball hit near us.  But that was the only one !


Our Arizona Family


The kids were able to be made up as ZOMBIES :0 !


Pretty Scary ! - she's got the look going on ;)


Cameron kept cracking up

Saturday we ate here - what an experience !

No utensils !!   It was delish !!
We had a great time here, and in AZ as a whole.  It's always great to see them !

Last Saturday Fun

We had an incident in the barnyard.   Thatcher was run over by Billy (the goat) when he (the goat) was startled by a clanking chain.  Thatch was nailed right on the eye by Billy's hoof. 


The culprit 

On a happier note - we purchased two Peacocks, or I should say a Peacock (male) and a Peahen (female).  They are just over a year old.  We spent all morning enclosing the top of the dog run.  We will keep them in here until next Spring, or else they are apt to fly away.  

Miss Piggy claimed the top of the #$&* pile, and was sleeping soundly, when these two yahoos decided she needed to be petted.  She sure makes a sound when she is startled........petted......gotten too close to..........  

Sam will chew on anything, including Treyson's HAIR !!

We headed over to the Property to cook a hot dog, and do some burning.  The kids FACES were BURNING, with the hot coals. 

He's feeling MUCH better now :)


Before we lit the burn pile on fire, Rog and I ran over to the offices to pick up four big boxes which needed to be destroyed.   The boys had a fun time spreading them around. 

It was a great BIG FIRE

It even caught the tree up above on fire !

Then we started on the fenceline and ditch bank near HWY 66

Tried to get Thatch to sleep - but no luck there.........

The boys had such a great time helping.  I think we all have a bit of PYRO MANIA in all of us ;)

Love my MOM !

It was fun to see how the boys pitched in, and the Grandpa's relinquished their rakes.  Such is the life of a giving Grandpa :)  

Thatch and Mommy

He is a character some times !

The boys hid Easter Eggs from each other, at different ends of the Property.  They had a great time doing this. 

Getting a drink with a little help from Big Brother.

Easter - Because of Him

I know that Jesus lives ! I know that life goes on after death. Family ties and friendships are NOT broken, and DO NOT end at death.  I looks forward to that day, when we can all be together again.

Fun Friday

Yesterday morning I got a phone call.  It was CJ, she and Thatcher were out in the driveway...........ready to feed the animals ! 

He loves it !

Later in the day we went down to Ogden with mom and dad to pick up the "new" lawn mower for the property.  They are excited to see how it works !!

Dad is just about ready to plant in his grow boxes.  We get to have one here at our house.  I'm looking forward to having fresh tomatoes sooner than expected. 

Finishing touches on the swing set. 

Grandpa and his little buddy



Almost there...........

He loves the Ranger :)

And the creek........

Little Zac Sargent, Treyson and Tagg - the creek is UP slightly from all of this warm weather. 


Adding the seats........

And there they go !!!!

They LOVED it !

So did this BIG guy :)

And boy can they catch some air, when Dad does an Under-doggy.....the first time Tagg was taken aback, but then he said, MORE MORE :)

Check out these videos below of our fun day.
