The "Three Days of Memorial Day Weekend"




How much can you possibly cram into three days? We thought we would test the limits....What a crazy weekend! To sum it all up, we had six baseball games between Loveland and Ft. Collins, four graduation parties, one graduation ceremony, one Bolder Boulder race and one very sick husband. Poor Lar must have gotten a bit of food poisoning because he was very sick. He still managed to be the best tag team partner ever, getting Tony to the games I couldn't. Love you Lar!

Tony's team took third place in the tournament and only lost to the first place team by two runs in an earlier game. Alec finished the 10K in 51 minutes. I finished in 58 minutes and my goal was under 60 so I was pumped! What a great weekend, now it's time to go back to work to get some rest.......

Mall of America


This is the amusement park in the heart of the Mall of America. This is also where Alec & Tony spent the majority of their time. What an amazing place! 520 stores, every type of restaurant you could want, miniature golf and even an aquarium. We were exhausted by the time we left, but had a wonderful time!

Alec's new ride....


While the boys and I were in Minneapolis for Spring Break, Lar arranged a deal with a friend of Todd's and the purchase of this sweet new ride. This beautiful 2000 green Dodge Durango only had 50,000 miles and has been parked/babied in a garage it's whole life. Alec passed his driving test when we got back and is now officially loose on the streets of Brighton. Look out!

Snowboarding at Winter Park




Alec and I went skiing/snowboarding on Friday, Feb 13th. What an awesome time! I was the chaperone for the trip with 29 students. We boarded the charter bus at 6:00 am, picked up another chaperone and 10 other students at PVHS and off we went. Alec had a lesson for the first half of the day while I skiied. We met up for a wonderful lunch in the lodge and then the real test....I took him up the lift and he boarded down like a pro. If a pro boards on their butt that is.


He was great, I pushed him pretty hard but he was a trooper and did really well. It was a beautiful day, blue sky and sunny. We got back on the bus at 3:15, all kids were accounted for popped in a DVD for the kids to watch and headed back home. We had a great day and would definitely do this again!

Guitar Hero World Tour










Best gift of Christmas 2008? Guitar Hero World Tour. Who knew the family would have this much fun playing Xbox 360 together? This is even better than Madden 09.

Dallin Fam Christmas Party Dec.13, 2008


The boys and I traveled to Utah for the annual Family Christmas Party. We flew in to SLC late Thursday night and arrived in Coalville around 12:30 AM. Grandma & Grandpa stayed up to greet us and Grandma Cathie even made Tony eggs before finally going to bed at 1:30 AM. Alec went straight to bed. We spent Friday in Park City at the outlets finishing up our shopping. When we woke up Saturday morning, a big storm had blown in and Rob and family were snowed in at Preston with 12 inches. Dave and family made it as far as Provo, but the canyon was so bad they had to turn around and head back home. It was a bummer we didn't get to see everyone. We had an awesome time with Gma & Gpa T and Steve & Bridgit's family. Rock Band was the big hit! Chase is quite a singer with Al on lead guitar, Tony on drums and Breeley as the back up singer. I expect their new video to release any day now on MTV. Keep watching.....
