I love her to bits!

This is a picture of my Dear Grandma Jean. She is not really my Grandma but I have called her that my whole life. My parents lived next to her and when I was born she took me in as her Grand-daughter. When my parents would vacation she would take care of my sisters and I. We moved away but always kept in contact. She is getting older in age now and is having some medical issues and can't do very much for herself now. It makes me so sad. When I was divorced and needed help with Keaton while I worked full time she helped me out so much. Keaton loves her dearly. I am so happy that he was able to spend time with her. She loves when we stop by to visit. I love her hugs!!
Keaton, Maylee my niece, Grandma Jean, me, and little Carter.

She is such a joy in my life. I am so blessed to know such a wonderful person!

Fun field trip.....

Last week I was able to spend time with Keaton and his class on a fun field trip. We started out at Liberty Park in SLC then we headed up to Red Butte Garden's. It was such a nice day weather wise. The guy that did the tour for us was a crack up, the kids were lovin' it! They were able to learn a lot about plants/flowers.

Our group was loaded with boys and they all wanted to see a rattle snake soooooooooo bad! Luckily we didn't come across one. I think if they really saw one they would cry like little girls and take off running.

Keaton's teacher is in the red shirt. She is a wonderful teacher. He is going to miss her.
Underneath all of the kiddo's is a bronze statue of a moose. Crazy kids ; )
*Thanks to my great sisters Amber and Stacey for watching my little ones for me*

Keaton playing soccer

Keaton is such a die hard sporty kid. Last week at recess he was playing soccer and sprained his toe. It has been so sore and swollen. Luckily his weekend game was rained out/cancelled so his toe got to heal some before last nights game. He did gimp around a bit but still played his guts out! We told him he could take it easy but as the pictures show below he still went for it.








The score was 2/1 his team won and he scored one of the 2 goals.



Wow, where did the time go?

Holy toledo! Time sure gets away quickly doesn't it. My little family has been busy with sports, sickness, school, field trips, church, family, and a whole bunch of other "things". Wow, time to catch up.
