Fun at the Fair!

We go to the AZ state fair every year! We had lots of fun on the rides and looking at the stinky animals. They had a cute petting zoo this year with little goats and pigs. They even had little kangaroos (I'm sure they're not called kangaroos). If any of you knew me as a kid I was having a blast! We dared David to go on the "big scary" ride, and he did! David was giggling like a girl! He'd be so mad if I knew I wrote that. The boys LOVED all the rides and were begging for more. Fairs are expensive...I don't recommend buying food, unless it's the yummy scones, they're worth every penny. We also had our pictures taken! Doesn't David look hot!? Cade, your awesome! I love my pink hairdo, it looks so....tasty? We love fairs!

This kids a goof!

Cade, we love you but your just full of silliness! I laugh all the time, except for when he's causing trouble or making a mess, which happens a lot. Ah well, your only a kid once, right?

Summer Vacation

On the road again! Yes we drove to I.F. from Mesa and yes it sucks! However, we have some funny pictures! and we were able to visit a lot of family and stay in the "vacant" house in Washington. The kids slept in a tee-pee! I went to my 10 year highschool reunion which was lame. It was cold, then it rained, then it was over. Oh well! We got to go camping and catch some fish at Island Park. Cade was afraid of the floppy fish and breezy out-house! Brrrr! We had lot's of fun playing with cousins and on the way back to AZ we stopped off in Duschesne, UT to visit David's sister Kristen and hubby Paul. They were very hospitable! We love your weiner dog! Yee-haw for road trips!

So sad to see them go, but so proud!

We were able to visit David's parents in Washington, Utah before they left for they're mission to Nauvoo, Illinois. This picture was taken in April right before they left. We're so excited for them but will miss them dearly. It was a quick but fun family reunion. Good Luck Elder and Sister Hinton!

Blogger Beginnings

Well, I've decided to start out my blog at the beginning of the year 2009. We're living in a condo in sunny, Mesa, AZ and loving it, cause our community has a pool and we have tons of friends so close! We sold our Mesa house November 2008 and are renting for now. We want to stay close to the east side of the valley out of convenience for David's helicopter school. Yes...he's still going to flight school and working hard on that instrument rating, but will soon be completed, as you will soon find out in the upcoming blog posts. Anyway, one of the first celebrations of the year is Jacob's birthday on March 3rd. He turned 5 years old! He attended pre-school this year and loved it. Our first born in the desert is getting so big....sniff...sniff...wipe a tear. Mom, made him a special choo-choo train cake which he picked out of a book. It was really good but not so easy to make, the licorice track was a little tricky! He received lots of fun gifts like a (mini tramp) and cards from Grandma's and Grandpa's. Thanks! We love all our family who support us and who we wish we could be closer to. Well, tll next time. This is fun. I'm finally getting some use out of all my digital photos that no one but my computer has seen. I hope you enjoy them as much as we do. Oh, and by the way, Danita's hair is no longer blonde, but it was cute while it lasted. Bye

My First Post!

Hi all! This is my first post and I chose to post the ugliest picture of myself. This was when Cade was born, obviously. Um...well that's all for now. When I get the hang of this I promise it will be much better. My dear friend Terina wanted me to give it a test run. Whooo...hoooo!!!
