Sunday we went to the COOMBS side... Always FUN WITH FAMILY!!

Grandpa decided it was a bit chilly for the egg hunt outside for the little ones so he done it inside this year... Its always fun to find the GOLDEN EGG grandpa is always a GOOD hider!! We enjoyed dinner, dessert and watching the kids play... Bay is learning how to walk so he was especially entertaining..The kids LOVED that the sun started to shine enough to go outside and get a little kick ball in and get rid of a LITTLE energy. Mom and Dad have a great back yard for the kids to all play this is there all time favorite to play KICK Ball or Baseball in the back yard

FAIRYTALE NIGHT

Taylor Skinner took Shaunie to Prom

Shaunie had so much fun... They started there day off with breakfast at friends and then they went down to Hogle ZOO. He returned her at 2:30 she had a quick sandwich then off to get her hair done by Tiffany. We hurried home from there to hurry some more to get her ready for the promenade and dance. Taylor picked her up then took her to the Carriage and thats where Cinderalla (shaunie) and her Prince Charming (taylor) left to attend the promenade... Where each Jr is recognized or at least there names called and they do a silly pose or silly something to be remembered....I wish I could have been quick enough to get a GOOD pic when these two came out on the stage and Taylor jumped in Shaunie's arms.. We all thought it was FUN... Then they hurried off to a nice dinner with more friends and to the dance...I ask them when they came home if they really did dance and they both said OF COURSE they didn't ever stop.... Shaunie said Taylor was such a Gentleman and she absolutely LOVED HER PROM!!!

CUTEST SMILES EVER

Shaylie had a School Project due...and she decided that each of us could do it with her!!!

Bear River FFA headed down South to Cedar City with lotsa projects for State Convention. We headed down also to join the fun and support them. They represented BEAR RIVER very well with many wins and accomplishments completed..THANKS TO GREAT ADVISORS and PARENTS that help these kids succeed. They have many heading to NATIONALS now in OCTOBER Woot Woot BR FFA

Shaunie Recieved 1st in STAR STATE AGRISCIENCE she earns $$ for her reward. We are PROUD of Shaunie and her involvment with the FFA and hope she continues to work hard. She has many goals that she would like to complete with the FFA and we are here to support her in any that she chooses. She also Recieved her STATE DEGREE at convention..

Retirement

My dad Retired from UDOT in February... It is a WELL DESERVED RETIREMENT he worked for UDOT for 42 years!!! He gave is whole heart, sole, time, comittment, energy, did I mention TIME to his job... This job has raised a family with food, a roof, and clothed each of us...Yes there were many days when dad would miss family things or such but when we do look back it provided LOTS for us also... Dad I am so PROUD of you and the EXAMPLE you are I LOVE YOU HAPPY RETIREMENT TO YOU!!!

Mick has still been wrestling and if he was to choose he would wrestle ALL YEAR long.. He is learning more with some Greco and Freestyle wrestling he hopes to get better at each match.. He has come against some pretty tough boys but that just makes him want to become better..

He always has a GOOD TIME with his friends and likes to make new friends at the meets to.. He wrestles this boy from South Salt Lake usually everytime and the two of them decided to become friends so its kinda funny...they are all serious before there match and then when it is over they want to hang out and sit and watch the other wrestlers together, they talk and just hang as mick would say

Its Time!!!

The kids are beginning to get quite a little herd of cows and so this time of year is WAY EXCITING for us.. We become so involved in the process, the care and the comfort for our cows we have a special bond I am sure when we get more than what we have it may be just another birth... But for now it is quite an adreniline rush for each of us. Shaunie has not missed many of her cows giving birth and for wasatch it wasn't any different. Shaunie was especially glad to be there cuz she was able to put the gloves on when wasatch was in trouble giving birth... I was in the house and when Shaunie came in she was so excited with an adreniline of emotions...She said "Mom I could do this every day!!"

Shelby is always right there in the middle of all the help. Shelby tends to be the gopher girl she is always driving to the barn or grandpa's for this or that... She bought her another heifer this year at an angus sale. Shelby, Mick, Shaunie and Mom went to Ogden to the sale she had her picked out the night when we went to the preview show. On our way down it was a blizzard near willard, there were lots of cars off the road and then the traffic stopped. Shelby got a bit worried about the time knowing that her calf was at the top of the sale she was afraid we would miss it. So she calls her dad and he gets a hold of someone at the auction we had a 3way phone call going and shelby ended up buying it while we were sitting on the freeway stuck in traffic.. Good thing we have cell phones. Shelby is excited to be involved with the jr program they have an awesome jr program for these kids. There is always work to be done with the cows but, Shelby always finds a way to make us laugh and joke around when it is workin time.
