Oh Say Can You See/Sing :)

Camryn was able to sing at Chase Field in Phoenix Arizona, at the start of a Diamondbacks v Cardinals baseball came last Thursday evening.  This is her choir group assembling in the field.  
Manda and Roger 
Jim (Cam's dad) and Amy
Ms. LB and her boyfriend
(she was Cam's 5th grade teacher last year - such a great teacher and friend)
Cam's cousins - (Hannah is the cute blonde)
Hannah's dad in red (an uncle), and Grammy Pam in the flowered shirt.  Grandpa Steve is just behind her.
Such a cutie - I sure wish I could have been there, but I was home at Manda's sick with strep throat, and feeling competely miserable :(
As the choir filed in to sing (this pic is totally out of order), Cam reached down and gave Roger a kiss on the cheek as she passed by.  Totally made his evening !
Cam and some of her friends - what a great experience !
Glad we could go down and support her.

Another week gone - and school has started !

Yup - 4th and 2nd grade, here these boys come :)
Tagg came home with this - so cute.
It's fun to catch the bus, right in front of the house.
Zac and CJ celebrated their 12th anniversary on the  21st.
Wow, has it been that long?

Then.............
..........and now !
While they went on a date, Rog and I had the boys.  They wanted to go down in Vern's field and hang out with the hay haulers.  Treyson was at Grandma Shirlee's.
Jim Wiscombe was hauling hay with his crew, and was more than accomodating.  He threw them up on top, and they had a grand time, even though Tagg was a little nervous that the stack was going to tip over. 
Coming back with Grandpa Roger
Treyson - all ready for his first game yesterday.
He is #44, same and Grandpa Roger was.  He plays right tackle on offense, and on defense he is on the line, but I don't know the position.  He's a good player, and has finally figured out just what is what for the most part.  It sure was hot sitting on the bleachers.  We will have to take an umbrella for sure next time.  Thank goodness Grandma D left hers with us when they had to leave. 
Good Game !  (even though they lost 22 -0)
Later we hung out at the Property.  Grandma D and Thatcher decided to dip their toes. 
Whee!!!
Zac working on their water connection
Tagg bustin' up dirt clods
Talking about house placement.

Crazy week, alot going on....

We celebrated mom's birthday a few days ago.  We sure love her :)
Tagg is getting along with his "boot" - it's starting to wear on him though, and he will be glad to get it off. 
Zac got the pipe all cemented around the joints.......
........and the headgates fixed/built.  The pipe is all backfilled now.  We are anxious for Jeff to put water in the ditch/pipe, and see how it goes. 
Tagg went to the orthodontist, and then to the dentist to have two teeth removed so that his permanent teeth will have more room to come in.  They go back in 6 months to see the progress.  Right now he is in the "Yetti" club, as in "he is not "Yetti" for braces yet :)
Zac and CJ got their plans back, so hopefully they can get going on the new house. 
CJ and the boys made some sand to play with on the back patio.  They've been having a grand time wtih that. 
Grandpa's barnyard/chore helper.
He sure likes the tomatoes.
Yum Yum !!
Tagg's eyes are still red and blood shot.  Wish they could get him some relief :(
Our family at the Tonks Reunion last Saturday
Celebrating Grandpa Ben's birthday a few days early.
Great Grandkids
Grandpa Ben, Grandma LuAnn
She's taking him to Wendover today for his birthday

Manda and Bren are going to be buying a new house.  They put an offer in on this one, and it was accepted, so now they just have to go through all of the rigamarole.   

It is located in a very nice area that we are familiar with.  Next to Desert Breeze Park, and near Cam's junior high.

Tomatoes

Helping Grandpa Roger water..... He has to look for the water to come out the little drainage hole. 
"There it is Grandpa"
Can you spot any orange ones?
Yup !  Two of them !!
He's a talker.......
Thatch - not Grandpa :)
We brought that big tomato right in the house, cut it up, salted it a little, and he ATE IT ALL UP !!
