My Adventurous Life

Here is a layout from the She Said Monthly Autoship club from A Page 4 All Seasons . The designer is Tamara Jensen . I just love all the layouts she creates! It is so nice to have these kits on hand. They are easy to do because everything is cut out for me and I can put it together quickly! This layout is one of my favorites. I love all the flowers on it. Don't you? These picture's were taken at a family reunion in Flagstaff, Arizona in August 2007. My uncle Carter had his horses take the older kids on trail rides in the morning, but wanted to wait until the evening for the little children to ride the horses around the fenced in area. I guess he didn't want the horses to get tired on the trail rides, so he did that first! My daughter had a hard time waiting until evening to ride a horse. When she would see the horses coming back from a trail ride she would get so excited thinking it would be her turn to ride. The excitement quickly turned to a crying spell when she saw the...

My workshop will be on the following days: Thursday, July 10, 2008 from 6-9pm Friday, July 11, 2008 from 6-10pm Saturday, July 12, 2008 from 8:30 am to Noon I got the idea for this workshop form my friend Nicole Shelman . My layout is different from her layout, but I did pick up some of her ideas! Thanks Nicole! NOTE: Click on the image to enlarge! These pictures were taken on July 4, 2007, at the parade or what I like to call the "taffy throw." It was fun to be at the parade with my sister's and my children loved all of the cousins! We will meet again this year, which my children are excited for!

I couldn't wait for my children to get out of school so I could have some free time, since there would be no more nightly homework. I ended up with less time! My daughter had T-Ball games every Monday and Wednesday and my son had machine pitch every Tuesday and Thursday! Whew! Baseball season is finally over, so hopefully now I can find some of that free time I was hoping for! My son's team was the Colorado Rockies. Here he is ready to bat. He is wearing batting gloves he helped pay for. He insisted he needed them to hit home runs. Ironically, he did hit a couple of home runs during the season, so he must have known what he was talking about. I love this picture because it shows the machine used to pitch the balls, my son with his glove in his pocket, and the beautiful mountains! Don't you agree those mountains are beautiful? That is one of the reasons why I love living in Utah! My son always wore his right batting glove and had the left one in his back pocket when he pla...

My daughter's T-Ball Team was the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, how appropriate. I think my daughter only played T-Ball for the treats she got at the end of each game! One day we missed her game because I wrote the wrong time down. My daughter started crying because she missed her treats and demanded treats from me once we got home! She is so silly! My daughter had a great coach who tolerated all her goofing around. Here he is helping her bat! When I took this picture I didn't realize my son was lurking in the back ground. My daughter is batting with a bat she shares with her brother and he is on guard ready to grab it when she is done! My daughter just hit the ball and is done with the bat and he is moving in to get it! Funny huh?

Our fridge stopped making ice, so we bought a new fridge. My daughter was so sad the day she came home and seen the new fridge in the kitchen and the old fridge gone. She started bawling and said, "But I never got to say goodbye to Fridgy ! I miss Fridgy ! I told her the old fridge was out in the backyard and she could go see it. I heard her bawling harder and this is what I saw: Who new she was so attached to our old fridge! She cracks me up!
