MS Walk 2011

So the weather looks ok in this picture. However, it was so cold today. We woke up early this morning and found around 5 inches of snow outside. Really??? It is almost May... I'm glad that the weather held out during the walk though. It waited to start snowing until we were leaving!

There was a ton of people that showed up for the walk!








When we finished the walk we had our annual lunch at Squatter's. Amie does such an amazing job planning everything. This year I also saw an old friend from High School that I haven't seen in years. I love seeing everyone come out and support Amie.







We even had our own brew this year!

Thanks Amie for another great year. You are very inspiring and I love that you never back down or give up. Love ya girl!

Easter 2011

We had a great Easter this year! As always it was very busy; it felt like all we did is run. On Saturday we colored Easter Eggs and headed to my mom's house for our annual Easter Egg Hunt. I love that we have our own egg hunt. We have gone to a few of the local egg hunts in the past were always disappointed. All the kids made out with a huge haul. Lots of candy, toys, and more fake tattoos than we know what to do with.....








Easter morning we waited for Mike to get home from working a double shift. :( Then we found the eggs and baskets that the Easter Bunny hid. Paige found her basket under a chair in the spare bedroom and Allison's was in the dishwasher. Silly Bunny!


After that we headed to Gardner Village and had brunch at the Gathering Place. It was nice, but crowded as always. I think next year we will head to Market Street instead.






Then we went to Grandma and Grandpa's to see the great Easter baskets that Grandma made them. We then went home where Mike took a quick hour nap and then headed to Grandpa Old Guy's house for dinner and yet more Easter baskets.

MS Fundraiser

Today we went to the First Annual Fundraising Event for our MS Team, The Little Champs. Amie, who has been my best friend for years, was diagnosed with MS several years ago. Every year since she has been the Team Captain for our team. She has done such a great job raising money to help find a cure. This year they had a motorcycle rally/poker game. They also had booths and prizes to give away.

Although we didn't have a motorcycle to ride we still had fun! Grandma EJ and Uncle David joined us too.

Thanks for the great time Amie!

Trent and Amber's Wedding

Yesterday we drove to Wadley Farms in Lindon for Trent (Mike's cousin) and Amber's wedding. I loved the place they chose, it was put together really well. They are such a cute couple and we wish them the best in their new adventure.

It had been awhile since I had seen them and although we didn't get a chance to catch up, it was nice to see them. Mike visited them a few weeks ago when he was in Phoenix for work and had the opportunity to go flying with Trent. It sounds like they are both happy there and Trent seems to be a great flight instructor.

Amazingly the weather held out and it was a beautiful day. They had a candy bar that the kids LOVED!!
