Yippee....no more training wheels!

It took moving to Boise and living on a flat street for Mr. Brock to finally want to take his training wheels off. Ryan got his work out running along side of him for an evening but now he is a pro!! Biking is pretty big here in Eagle. There are a lot of bike trails and parks with bike trails. It honestly looks super fun. I haven't had a bike (it was a maroon 10-speed to be exact) since I was in high school. I'm thinking it is time for a new one. Everyone should have a good bike right? :-)

Our new house!! Visitors welcome:-)

What we are going to miss!!

We made it to Boise.......and for those of you who didn't know.....we moved! :-) So if this doesn't make me a better blogger than nothing will! All I can say is I will do my best.

It was very difficult to leave a place we loved so much. We had the best neighbors ever, the best ward, absolutely terrific friends for the kiddo's, and just a fabulous community in general. We will miss it tremendously but definitely know we are where we are supposed to be at this time in our life. I hope in time we will feel the same way (if that is possible) about the neighborhood and ward here in Eagle.

This is what we are going to miss.......along with grandparents and good friends (you know who you are!)

A Day That Can't Be Neglected: Cannon's Baptism

Cannon's Baptism: December 18, 2010. It was fun to have this special day right before Christmas! I think he looked mighty handsome in his first suit and he actually loves to still wear it to church. Cannon had a lot of support that day from family and friends. Unfortunately, I had a bad mommy moment and forgot my camera that day. Thankfully my sweet friend and neighbor saved the day!!

My baby is 5!!

Brock had a fun birthday this year because he officially had is very first birthday party with friends. His only requests.....sugar cookies, pirates and pinata's! We figured that was doable! We played "pin the flag on the treasure map", decorated sugar cookies and of course had the good old-fashioned pinata. What more could a little boy ask for. We love you Brockstar!!

Family Pictures - Oceanside Sept. 2010

Spiders, Lizards, Snakes Oh My!!!

Cannon had quite the birthday party this year, thanks to Scales and Tails (which I highly recommend.) Go here to check them out: scalesandtails.com As you can see below we had a house full of family and friends of Cannon's. And also as you can see below.....snakes are not one of Cannon's favorite's. He comes by it rightly as I am not a fan either! It was cute to see him nervous but at the same time trying to act brave......seeing as he had the eye's of two cute girl's from our neighborhood and in his school class watching him. Definitely couldn't whimp out!

It was a great party but mom was glad to get the creepy spiders, scorpions and other yucky reptiles out of her house!

Happy Birthday to our big 8-year-old!! Baptism pictures coming soon!
