Jocey's Graduation

I am one of the luckiest mothers in the world... only imagine having this cute of a gal, inside and out, live with you for 18 wonderful years. Best of luck in the future Jocey you will be fabulous in all you do.

Flowers from Jared. Have I ever mentioned that I LOVE that man. Happy 20th Anniversary, Love ya!

Joceys' 18th Birthday. We actually celebrated it at State Girls Basketball, but luckily she did get to come home that night and have cake at her own house.

Bayli's 10 Birthday Party. She decided to have a 'twister' theme party. She invited all her cousins and family from both sides and her best friend McKenlie, we had a blast playing the game of twister.

Pine Wood Derby. Braxton's car took 2nd place and he loved watching it race, well at least after it looked like it was going to win. Every time before he would race it he would tell us that it made him very nervous and he was scared.

As a senior, Jocey decided to take up tennis and took 4th at Districts. Way to go Jocey!

Our trip to Disney Land with Bayli and Braxton. Loads of fun, and several memories that were made, and never again will I worry about my kids being to little to go on rides. Braxton was a dare devil and Bayli rode everything except the upside down roller coaster. We went to Disney Land and then the next day California Adventure Land. The last night we spent back at Disney Land where we saw, shook hands, received and autograph and took a photo with "Fredy" from I-Carly. A true celebrity our trip ended on perfection.

Just hanging around the house; TV for Braxton and sewing for Bells.

Prom

Jocey's Senior Annoucements

Jocey's Senior Prom

Jocey's senior prom...Thomas Johansen asked her to the final high school dance. The dance was held at a hotel and was a masquerade ball. Jocey spent days making each individual mask for the dance since she is on student council.

Mason JV baseball for Sugar Salem. Mason's home number is 12 and his away number is 94. Mason decided on number 94 because that was the year he was born and number 12 was just assigned to him. Mason has been playing 2nd base this year and stops every ball that goes near him; but because he has grown about a foot over the last seven months his coach would like him to try 1st and out field.

Neighborhood Mud Wars

April 2010

Jocey speaking at Sugar Salem 6th grade D.A.R.E. graduation. She was chosen as the senior D.A.R.E. role model.

There aren't words to describe how precious that is.

And just a random photo of me, the mom.

St. Patrick's Day

Jared and I woke up Bayli and Braxton and neither one of us had green on. After several pinches before they left for school, I made sure that when they got home I had my St. Patty's green. You've gotta love St. Patrick's Day!

Going Back Home

Jocey's state ball tournament was in Boise, only and hour away from my home town so I had to go and visit. My parents also came with us to revisit all the people we love in Weiser and to go around and see all our old homes, grandparents house, school, store, gravesides, buy roses, etc. Everything that I love to do when I get the opportunity to go back home. Miles away from Weiser I could smell the onions and it made me start to cry, I love the smell of home, the fields, the weather, EVERYTHING and EVERY memory about that place. I also took photos with my grandpa's sister that are still living there. A perfect day!!

Basketball Season 2010

Jocey's basketball team took home the consolation trophy this year at state. She was also asked to play in the All-Star game along with Sophia and during that half time she was awarded the 2010 Sportsmanship Award for 3A and a $250.00 scholarship.

Valentine's Dance

Jocey took Mark to her Valentine's Dance. She looked pretty hot in my old high school dress.

District Champs 2010

Another season, another sport, and another year of being DISTRICT CHAMPS.

1990 SCARY

I thought since Valentine's Day is coming very soon, I would post an old photograph of Jared and I in LOVE years ago like over twenty years ago. I loved him then and love him even more today! Happy Valentine's Jared.
