14 years and counting....

Our Handsome Guy

Wow! Josh is 14 years old today. I can barely believe it. It seems like yesterday he was the wide eyed inquisitive toddler. He still hasn't lost that spunk or thirst for knowledge.



We woke him up at midnight to sing happy birthday to our big teenager! Today he is at school enjoying all that it has to offer.



Tonight he has requested a trip to the Chinese Gourmet buffet.... and I am sure many will join us to watch the spectacle of him eating mussels by the minute.



Happy Birthday Joshy!

Labor Day Weekend 2009

We took pictures of bees.
And Brian eating bananas.

And driftwood.

And crawfish.

And adorable teenagers named Josh.

And hawt husbands named Brian

And cute boys named Xander

And brothers fishing.

And Grandparents watching

And fathers with sons.

And goofy faces.

And loving spouses.

And proud boys showing off their catch.

On Saturday we drove up to Strawberry with Richard and Vicki. As you can see we had a great time. We didn't catch one fish. But the boys were able to rake in about 30 crawfish. They seem to enjoy catching those the best. Especially Josh. He loves to see how may he can catch and compare them in size.

The weather was a little chilly and it drizzled rain. But that didn't stop our fun family time. There were lots of laughs, treats, walks, and just plain silliness. Oh... and good food. We headed to the Hub in Heber after fishing and ate yummy greasy goodness.

That night Mark and Molly were babysitting their nephew little Xander. They invited us over to play cards. We hung out, ate pizza, and got our butts kicked by Mark.

On Sunday Mark and Molly had the whole crew over for Sunday dinner. They made a pork dish that is featured on "Once Upon a Time in Mexico". And if I wasn't too lazy to google I would find the name for you. It was pure pork bliss. I will tell you that. Then.... more cards... 2 epic battles raged that night. They were really long poker games. But we all had lots of laughs and fun.

On Monday we spent the day and evening with good friends at a BBQ. Plenty of good food, friends, laughter, and kids to keep us busy all day long.

Great weekend!
