Mason working on his pinewood durby car for cub scouts

There it is, it needed more weight, so they glued a big nut in the seat...Mason named it "the Nut behind the wheel"...He did very well, but didn't place for a trophy.

Justin was cooking some food for us on a very windy day and it kept blowing out the flame, so he put Nolan and Mason to work keeping the wind away.

Pack meeting where Mason got his Wolf award, here they are doing a silly cheer, I'm one of the Wolf leaders! First time with one of my boys, can you believe it, with all those boys, I was never in cub scouts with them...without them but not with them.

Pinning on my mothers pin.

Mason and I were going on a walk together, and he saw a chew can, and picked it up, I said eweww put that down, then I had a flash back to when Dad came home from the construction site with a Copenhagen can with a cut off finger in it...I will never forget that. So we went home and got it all together....Dan, Dylan, Nolan, and Justin will never forget this either....They fell for it for a while, it was great fun.

Man I love being a mom to boys......well.....and a girl

On Memorial Day we went to Toquerville to see the grave of my great, great grandfather John Conrad Naegle, Dad found it on Grave search .com, so we went there and took some pictures for us all. Kind of cool.

Roses from our front yard!

Flags were there on all the military head stones!

We had another fun visit from Jason, Tiffany, Gunner, Paisley, and baby Harper, the end of March, it was so much fun but I forgot to take more pictures, so here are a few on the trampoline, Gunner just wants to be like the big boys, not always such a good thing, Look at them fight.

Aren't they angles?

Nolan getting the "Rookie of the Year" award in wrestling, we just had his award banquet at the High School (he's still in the middle school, but 9th grade wrestling is at the High school.)
His Coach is in Justin and Afton's new ward in Hurricane where they just bought a house, isn't that cool? And Dan and I saw him and his wife at the temple, It's so fun for me to live in an LDS community.

The Saturday before Easter, Mason got to have an Easter egg hunt in the pool! They do that in the St George indoor pool, and I thought it would be so fun to it at home...Well it was so cold he had to wear his wetsuit, but what a brave soul, he did it....notice he was alone in there?

Happy Easter, Love you all!

Red Robbin hot air balloon landing just around the corner from our house.....

Is that where they get the beef for their hamburgers???

Jason and Tiffany and their family came for a fun visit and to bless Harper, the big boys went for a motor bike ride... oops Austin wasn't ready for the picture

Jason, Ryan, Mason, Justin, Dan, and Austin

It took some work getting all those men in the cab of Austin's truck

....they fit!

A critter that Jason saw under our trampoline, He and Mason caught it and put it in a cat cage..

It was not very happy with us and hissed...well I guess there was no noise, but it was not happy it looks kind of like Heidie's rodent.... about a week later, Mason went to a museum and said they had one there (stuffed) and they said it was a mountain beaver?

Jason and Harper, on her blessing day, February 6th 2011
We were so excited to have them here. so it was done in our ward...hey that's a pemco pen in your pocket isn't it Jason....Dad's are starting to run out of ink...best pens ever though.

getting everyone together for a picture....it was hard work

someone is a little bossy

But it worked
left to right....Tiffany's mom holding Gunner, her sister(hiding) Aunt, Grandma, Fred (peeking out) Tiffany holding Paisley, Suzanne, Jason holding Harper, Afton, Ryan, Nolan, Sarah, Dylan, Austin, Dan and me, and Mason in the front. Oh, I just saw that Ryan was holding up the rabbit ears behind Jason's head. He will never grow up...remember the picture of the kids I had taken at a studio when Mariah was a baby...The picture never came in and I complained...so they sent it to me in the mail for no charge....Well, Mariah was crying, eyes were everywhere, and Ryan was holding rabbit ears over Jason's head..They photographer must have been in trouble for not catching all those mistakes....but I love it now

Tiffany's Grandma Shauna, Paisley, Tiffany Jason and Harper, Fred and Dan.
Gunner's head leaving all the nonsense.

What a beautiful family...I wish I could turn it for this blog, but I needed it this way for my wall at home, so that's how I took it.

Cute pictures of the kids.....

Aren't they precious???? notice Gunner's tats?
