Happy Happy Birthday Ramie girl! Ramie is one of the happiest girls around. She is always smiling and helping others. She loves to sing and sings well. She has a natural talent of singing and we love to have her perform for us. One day she will be on American Idol and WIN! 
Another favorite thing I love about Ramie is her beautiful HAIR! She has natural curl and wow it is gorgeous. We get to be around Ramie a lot and enjoy her cute personality. I love you and hope you have a fun day at school! 
This adorable little man is Case, my brother Lance's youngest boy. He is TWO. Caser has the cutest personality. He uses such big words and is very polite.
He is so much fun to be around. He is a great eater and loves to sneak pop when his mom isn't looking. He has a great big brother, Crew, he loves and wants to do everything he is doing (oh if that doesn't remind me of Lance and Logan)! We loved being at his party swimming in his Grandma Jan's pool and eating pizza and yummy cake! Happy Birthday Case. I forgot to mention he LOVES being with his DAD. 
Playroom make over - gotta love IKEA and Wal-mart!
I got lucky and scored - the baskets I used were being clearanced out, YES!
Monday, March 16 Conner had a practice game at the Field of Dreams fields. They are these cool HUGE fields that are decked out just like you were at a professional game. Of course we wouldn't have missed it! Uncle Lance, Uncle Logan, Oma and Papa came to checked it out and support Conner.
Oma full of positive cheers!
Uncle Lance and Logan wished they could have played on fields like these when they were younger. 
Carly and Oma visited the concession stands to get yummy pretzels and cheese.
Conner playing shortstop when he wasn't pitching!
Uncle Lance and Papa enjoying the game!
Luckily for us they had a real cool park right next to where we sat, so Carly and Cole could play. They loved those climbing ropes.
When it got dark the lights came on and WOW what a cool field. Conner's team won - he pitched a few innings and did a great job! What a fun FHE activity! 
Uncle Aaron can you blow that many candles out? He is married to Erik's sister Liz. They have 5 great kiddos. We love to spend hot summer days swimming in there pool. Uncle Aaron is a fun Uncle, he loves to play with Cole. He is a whiz on the computer, loves to play online video games, movie watcher and loves his family! We are glad you are in our family. Hope you had a great birthday! 
Yes, it is spring break and kids are looking for something FUN to do. TEENAGERS can't live with them and you CAN'T live without them. I am not ready to make decisions they want me to make. Of course Erik was gone last night at work and so these two innocent girls (don't let them fool you) came to me with, "can we go door-bell ditching?" Yes, glad they asked, but NO WAY was my response." I have a hard time with that one. Most of the people in our neighborhood have little kids which means kids in bed. I don't have a problem letting them go toilet papering! Some people may disagree with me. I look at it as they have to do something "mischievous" you know they are teenagers - so if this is the craziest thing they do I'll take it.
Preparing...they went up and put on black shorts, tennis shoes and these bandanna's!
Girls on a mission...who's house will it be? A cute boy? Great news they DIDN'T get caught! 
These two adorable kiddos are on a 2 week spring break. Their crazy outdoor mom borrowed Gramers & Papa's truck and took them on an adventure. The temperature was 71 degrees and perfect for a bike ride.
We journeyed into Scottsdale to McKellips park. What a fun time. There were great sidewalks leading you under roadways and next to water. Every little while there would be a park and yes we stopped to play.
Swings + sand + climbing + slides = fun
Even a section with water shooting out - took advantage of cooling off a little.
Of course, Conner couldn't resist!
Carly reminded me of the little girl in the movie "My Girl" with her cute hat. 
Cole loves to ride bikes! We stopped and had lunch at a park where he got to stretch his legs and climb a rock wall.
Following the leader the leader the leader were following the leader...
Sheridan is now "15" I can't believe it. Wow, one more year and she will be driving! Sheridan is a cheerleader at her school. She is awesome! 
Sheridan knows how to make the weirdest faces. We love to see her and hope she has a Happy Birthday! 
After Conner's first game we went and watched Lindsey play volleyball. She loves to play and has a great attitude about cheering her friends on. In fact, I was proud of her because one ward didn't have enough players (she didn't know anyone in that ward) and volunteered to play on their team. What a good girl she is.
Warming up! Love the shoes. I asked her where her volleyball shoes were and she answered, "at home!" Such a teenager. They didn't match I guess. Nice VANS!
YEAH "Sharks" they won 35 to 14. Conner had 12 points, great job buddy! What a fun game and great season! 
Pointing at the CHAMPIONSHIP spot!
Conner #5 good job SHARKS. Conner had been struggling with fouling, but did a great job controlling himself in the championship game! Thanks to all our family who supported Conner this season - we love you!
Peter Piper, Conner's team party. Carly enjoying pizza so she can go play video games! 
Cole had a fun time playing on the play center (slide)!
Lindsey was glad Summer and Dakota were there to hang with.
Conner and one of his teammates!
Michelle and Jasmine Hanna they are Donovan's family. We love them and are glad they live in our neighborhood. 
Our family had the opportunity to help out with London's Run this year. We loved it. A little over 3 years ago our dear friends Warren and Heather Solomon lost their little girl, London, to cancer. This run was organized to help pay for their medical bills. The Solomon's have continued to hold the run each year to sponsor kiddos in the Queen Creek community fighting cancer to help with their needs. It is an amazing event. It is held at Schnepf Farms and the people that come out are so neat. It is a huge community event where they even have started a London's Ride (a horse ride). A place where people are happy all working together for a good cause.
I joined the committee and was asked to handle the awards/plagues.
My family rallied around me and came to help out too. Thanks Erik, Lindsey, Carly, Conner, Larissa, Oma, Papa and Logan.
Conner ran the fun run - 2 miles. Great job buddy!
Summer Edwards and Lindsey great friends!
Carly, Erik and Conner your help was great!
Aunt Heather and her friend Erin came and ran the 10K, way to go! Lance and Joe brought the kiddos to cheer them on!
While we were at Conner's Field of Dreams game Conner's Coach Larry took Cole out onto the field and let him run the bases.
Cole wasn't quite sure what he was up to, but once they got started his smile grew bigger and bigger.
Homerun - way to go little man! Thanks a lot Coach!!
