MOMENTS we live for!!!!!

The Mighty Mighty TIGERS
16-0 UNDEFEATED
Division A 2009 Champions!!!!!!!
Dallin earned this trophy!
He got pelted by a pitch in the arm and wrist and took the strike and then pounded a hit and brought in the two runs that put us ahead! He shook it off and played like a TRUE champion can!!!!!
We sure do love our mighty Tigers and are so excited for Dallin and this amazing season of undefeated champions!!!! Watch for more in depth feelings when Scott posts his blog about his experience with this group of "monkeys"!!!!

The Big ONE!!!!

The TIGERS are off to the Championship Game!!!!
Their season is 15-0!
All Tiger fans wear orange and blue on Tuesday!!!
We hope they take it ALL!!! I have an incredibly funny story about my sweet Abby.
While I was at work on Thursday she called to see if she could make soft pretzels for her and the other monkeys. I explained very well to her how to do it and WA-LA..look at those babies...And they were Delicious! BUT....
She tried to surprise me! She wanted to have fresh homemade bread for me when i got home from work that day and well. I couldn't post a picture..needless to say a recipe that entails 12 cups of flour only made 2 loaves of bread. The top looked like cottage cheese. She was so sad...she wanted so bad for me to have that special smell and love when I got home...
I did eat it and it was good..only it still is sitting in the pit of my stomach!
She is such a sweetie!

Last but not least

Superdad is down to his LAST year of grad school and

finished this semester with another A!

YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So we begin...

I will begin to attempt to catch up ....
Abby turned 13, finished 7th grade!!!!!,
Helped throw a surprise party for her good friend KJ a.k.a JW,
had her own party, babysits the adorable Cher
and earned her money for girls camp working at the summerfest.
Abby's birthday was on Memorial Day our friends the "W's" took our family to the park for a BBQ to celebrate Abby turning into a big teener!
Abby was ALLLLL grins!
Her Grandma and Grandpa Tolman sent her this beautiful
Irish necklace for her birthday! Emma was so excited to give her gift to Abby...
so she could later play with them... Abby waited for her birthday to destroy her Hippo that she made in Spanish class at Christmas! We still have the head!!!
Abby wanted an iPod Nano for her birthday and she got a HOT pink one!
We all Love it!
Abby and Skotie spent there last day of 7th grade sleeping in and staying home from school. Then Abby, Skotie , Kate and Brylie went to the movies and made ribbon flip flops and bags to celebrate her teendom and finishing 7th grade! Abbys good friend KJ had his birthday a couple of days later and his mom asked Abby and Skotie to help throw a surprise party for him....It was a ton of fun to see all of the kids they have gotten to know over the year and relived to find them all VERY GOOD TEENS! Yeah! Abby's YW earned their camp money by working for at Summerfest! After an 8 hour shift she said" Mom now I know why you are tired when you come home from work and your feet hurt! My feet are killing me!" Dallin finished out his 3rd grade year with his simple machines fair and his recorder concert!It was adorable!!!!!!
This is the infamous Mrs. Bandley! WE love her! We are so sad this year is over and will miss her wonderful spirit. She is a one of kind teacher...a diamond among gems!Precious!
#14 Dallin in his LAST season game...
They finished Number 1 in the season...
UNDEFEATED TIGERS!
Playoffs start this week...AHHHHHH!!!!! At the summerfest Dallin was SOOOOO excited for this ride...He feels like Spiderman on it!!!
Emma had Joy School Graduation. She did a great job this year and has grown SOOO much!
She sang her little heart out and learned all of the songs! Click here to hear
her and her class sing... Emma saw this ride from the baseball games early in the week and called it the Strawberry Shortcake Ride...It was all she could think of and cousin Zach was great enough to ride it with her. We skipped the parade this year and went out to celebrate Zach's joining the TEEN MOVEMENT and then had homemade ice cream at his home. It has been crazy as normal and will continue to be until well forever!!!!!!! only 16 more days of Summer work and then I get to spend some Summertime with the kids.

Wrinkley Birthday Wishes to Our Old Man!!!

Instead of counting candles,
Or tallying the years,
Contemplate your blessings now,
As your birthday nears. Consider special people
Who love you, and who care,
And others who’ve enriched your life
Just by being there. Think about the memories
Passing years can never mar,
Experiences great and small
That have made you who you are. Another year is a happy gift,
So celebrate, and say,
"Instead of counting birthdays,
I count blessings every day!"
Happy BirthdayScott...I LVOE you!!!!!
A Birthday Shout out as well to his twin sister four years apart Aunt Ne Ne we love you as well and know that you will serve fantabulous wherever and however you are called! You are an incrediable blessing in all the lives you touch.
Also to Mrs. Bandley and Liz...We are so blessed to have you in our lives.
