Snow Canyon, St. George 1/2 Marathon

2009-11-10T09:54:00.000-08:00

Rob ran his first 1/2 marathon, he's been training for it for 10 weeks now! He wanted to run it in less than 1:50:00 and his time was 1:49:00, so he accomplished his goal!! HIs sister Amy ran it with him and also his friend Billy, they all did such a good job! Now he has the running bug and is going to do another 1/2 marathon. He's going to run in the Ogden 1/2 on May 15th. I was so proud of him for accomplishing this and after the race Baylee came up to him and said " good job running dad." So cute!

ZION'S NATIONAL PARK!!

2009-10-05T14:52:00.000-07:00

We went to Zion's with my family over UEA Weekend or Fall break whatever its called these days!! Anyways it was a lot of fun. We took Baylee, with she was so excited to go and she had no clue where she was going!! All week we kept saying we were going to Zion's with Grandma and the kids!! (Ethan wasnt invited he had to stay home with grandma Shrock). We've been to Zion's several times and it keeps on amazing me!! It is so beautiful there, but this is the first time that we have stayed in a hotel, usually we camp, and i do have to say it was worth the money! :) Rob was mister Stud, cause he hiked all 25 pounds of Baylee on the hikes we went on!! On sunday it was so windy, it was crazy!! We started to hike Observation point (it overlooks Angel's Landing), but we didnt make it all the way to the top, because the people coming down said that the wind gust were 60-70mph at the top and it was too risky to make it!! I said lets just go until one of the kids blow off then we will know when to turn around, hehehe just kidding!! Anyway we had a great time! Love going on trips with the Family!!

THE SPIRAL JETTY!!!

2009-09-03T20:14:00.003-07:00

Ok so I have never even heard of this place and then I saw some pictures on my friends Facebook, and thought it looked pretty cool. So I decided that we needed to go on an adventure! So the Spiral Jetty is rocks that make a "spiral" that goes out on the Great Salt Lake. Below is a slide show of the pictures that I took out there. It was way cool to see and it took us about an hour and a half to get out there.
Let me just explain that we are not white trash and we did have a shirt on Baylee.
This is the other part of our adventure!! Ok so going out to it is way bumpy and rocky road and we were bumping along and Baylee asks me for something so I turn aroung to give it to her, just in time to see her start throwing up all over herself and the carseat!! So Rob pulls over, Rob gets her out of her carseat to clean it up (cause seriously I cannot deal with throw up, i was dry heaving the whole time). So anyway we had a extra pair of underwear and shorts, but no SHIRT!!!
So that is why in all the pictures Baylee is going topless!! Other than the throw up, it was a pretty fun day and very interesting to go out to see!!

Guess her bed just wasnt comfortable enough?!

2009-06-20T16:26:00.001-07:00

ONLY PICTURE!

2009-06-16T08:40:00.001-07:00

This is the only picture we have of timpangos cave! Our friend Becca took
it of us inside the cave!

TIMPANGOS CAVE (spelling?)

2009-06-13T17:57:00.000-07:00

So today we went with Rob's family to hike up to timpangos cave!! We had it planned like 2 weeks in advance because you have to make reservations! So we are heading down there and I realize that I left my camera at home!!!!! So mad!!! So i dont have any pictures for you, but let me tell I need to go back to get pictures cause it was so amazingly beautiful! Anyway back to my story. So we get there and Rob is back packing it Baylee and I have Ethan, which was fun...10 extra pounds I get to hike up the mountain! So its perfect weather hiking up its cool and overcast, maybe a few sprinkles but nothing bad. We get up to the cave and Rob says "Just wait its nice now, but when we get out its gonna be a down pour and we will have to hike down in that!" So we go in and see the awesome cave, seriously way cool. If ya havent done it before ya need to! Well we get out of the cave and luckliy we see no rain, but the clouds are getting darker and they're heading our way. Plus we can hear thunder off in the distance! Well we are about 3/4 of the way down and it starts raining not too bad, we can handley this drizzle the whole way down! We get to the 1/2 way point and the heavens opened and complete downpour on us i mean pelting rain!! I start running down i cover ethan up with my jacket, im getting drenched from head to toe. My shoes are soaked through and they are squishy, the thunder was so loud and the lightening was cool (glad it wasnt close). So needless to say we made it down to the vistors center, but were completely drenched. So then Rob tells me that there was a rock slide up close to the cave and it would take 4 hours to clean it up!! So those poor people who were still up there going through the cave had to wait up there until they got it taken care of!! Crazy, so glad we got out when we did!! Anyway that was our fun adventure and I love it. It will be a good memory for us! Baylee was so good the whole time even though she got drenched she loved it!!
I love that we can have fun times like these with people that we love!!
ps.
I wish i had pictures!! SORRY!!

Good Qoute!!

2009-06-10T10:39:00.000-07:00

Ok I saw this qoute on a friends blog the other day and I feel that I need to share because its such a good one!

"I believe that everything happens for a reason. Things go

wrong so that you can appreciate them when they're right.

And sometimes good things fall apart so that better things

can fall together!"

on it during the night, I swear he'd sleep thru the night!!

^Baylee is already starting to put girlie things on him, as you can see

he's wearing her bracelets!! Rob wasnt amused!

WE ALL FALL DOWN....!!!

2009-05-29T08:51:00.000-07:00

Let me explain....
So we are at the softball fields last night, sitting in the shade waiting for the game before us to get over! Baylee loves to walk around these grate things that go around the concession stand. So she's walking on them as usual with her cute sunglasses on, when she falls. So my sis in law, shelli, goes over picks her up and she has insta goosebump! She probably cried for like ten minutes, then i got her settled down and grandma shows up....so of course we need sympathy from granny so she starts up the waterworks again!! Ten minutes later she was over it and back running on the grates again!! When we got home from the game i asked her about her head and if she felt ok and she was more concerned that she scraped up her shoe when she fell!! KIDS...... Oh the first picture you see is the next day!

MEMORIAL DAY AT THE PARK

2009-05-29T08:45:00.000-07:00

For Memorial Day we went to N.O. Ogden Park with my family to have a picnic! It was a lot of fun to spend the day with them. After the park we came home and just relaxed the rest of the night! Being in the sun all day sure does wear a person out!!

BATHTIME!!!

2009-05-29T08:37:00.000-07:00

2009-05-03T09:47:00.000-07:00

SHE REALLY LOVES TO DANCE!(pause the music so you can hear what she's dancing too)

2009-01-28T20:40:00.000-08:00

OKAY SO BAYLEE REALLY LOVES TO DANCE! I KNOW WE HAVE QUITE A FEW DANCE VIDEO'S ON HERE, BUT ITS SO FUNNY I JUST HAVE TO POST THIS ONE! WE'RE WATCHING MTV'S AMERICA'S BEST DANCE CREW AND SHE LOVES TO DANCE TO EACH OF THE SONGS AND SHE TOTALLY WATCHES THE DANCERS AND TRIES TO MIMICK THEM. BUT IN ONE OF THE DANCES I DON'T KNOW IF SHE SHOULD BE BUMPING AND GRINDING, BUT ITS HILARIOUS!! (wonder where she got those moves??)

ITS A LITTLE SQUISHY IN HERE!!

2009-01-13T09:58:00.000-08:00

ROB AND BAYLEE HAVING A LITTLE FUN IN HER DORA TENT!!! I THINK THAT IT MIGHT BE A LITTLE TOO SMALL FOR ROB, BUT BAYLEE THINKS ITS FUN TO HAVE HER DAD IN THERE WITH HER!!

CHRISTMAS TIME IS HERE!!!

2008-12-28T09:08:00.000-08:00

We had a good Christmas this year!! Baylee was a lot of fun. She wasnt a fan of Santa, until she realized that Santa means PRESENTS!!!! She got a baby doll with a stroller and some more accessories. She loves it she hasnt stopped playing with her baby since Christmas, so i guess it was a hit. After that awesome snowstorm on Christmas night we decided to go outside with DAD to watch and throw snowballs at him while he shoveled. Thanks to Gary, Rob only had to shovel about half the driveway!!! Baylee enjoyed the snow and thought it was pretty fun to slide down the big mounds of it!! I hope it snows like that again real soon!!

2008-12-21T19:16:00.000-08:00

Baylee was feeling a little left out at the soccer game. She really wanted to play with her mom and dad.

2008-12-21T12:41:00.000-08:00

FUN FAMILY TIMES DOWN IN ST. GEORGE!!

2008-12-09T13:38:00.001-08:00

Ok so if you look really close at the picture of the Rock it looks like a Turtle!! Can you see it??!!

BLOOMINGTON CAVES!!

2008-12-09T13:17:00.000-08:00

Last weekend we went down to St. George for a Toys for Tots softball tourney. (we wont talk about the tourney, cuz basically we sucked!!!) Anyway friday afternoon my adventurous sis-in-law Kami took us to Bloomington Caves. It was pretty awesome, we had to have flashlights or head lamps. We were worried that it was going to be really cold down there, but it was the complete opposite it was soooo hot and humid down in the caves. We hiked down pretty far and the cave opened up to like a big room. So we all decided to turn off our flashlights to see just how dark it was. You couldn't even see the person standing next to you!! It was pretty awesome. Thanks for the Great Adventure Kami!!!

JUST SOME RANDOM PICTURES!!

2008-12-09T13:01:00.001-08:00

Just thought I'd post some random pictures!! The top picture is Baylee trying to scare me with this alien looking Halloween mask. It was quite funny to come into the family room to see her wearing it, since she was afraid of it at first. She was even growling at me!!! It was pretty cute. The next 2 pics are of Baylee helping her Dad peel and put the potato's in the pan for Thanksgiving dinner. She stayed there and helped the whole time and it was a lot of potato's!!

MY VERY FIRST PIE!!!

2008-11-17T09:12:00.000-08:00

I made my very first pie on Sunday. It was Banana Cream Pie, it turned out really good, if i do say so myself! I tell ya what pies are easy to make its just a pain in the butt easy!!! When you are cooking the crust you have to check on it like every 5 min. so that you get a golden brown crust and not a burnt one!! So the picture at the top is what I did with the left over pie dough. You roll it out and put it in a glass dish and then you sprinkle cinnamon sugar over it and then bake it for like 15 min. and then enjoy your cinnamon sugar pie crust. Its good!! Anyway just wanted to share my very first pie with everyone!!

THIS IS HALLOWEEN, HALLOWEEN!!!

THIS IS HOW WE EAT MASHED POTATOES!!!

2008-08-28T18:38:00.000-07:00

This is how Baylee likes to eat....very messy!!! But she wont combine her food. So if a piece of meat slips in with her potatoes, she will spit out the meat and then eat the potatoes.... I know she's weird, but she makes everyday more interesting. Enjoy this messy video!!

HILL AEROSPACE MUSEUM

2008-08-28T18:31:00.000-07:00

WE WENT TO THE HILL AEROSPACE MUSEUM WITH A COUPLE OF FRIENDS AND LOOKED AT ALL THE COOL PLANES. NOT

THE LAST CAMPOUT

2008-08-24T19:37:00.000-07:00

So apparently Baylee is a pole dancer! On both camping trips this is what she loved playing with the most. Go figure!! Also I have never seen her so dirty, but she loved every minute of it. So i say let her be let her be.... But we had a good time on our last camping trip of the year with Rob's family it was good times. Can't wait till next year!

SOOOOO PRETTY

2008-08-15T15:36:00.000-07:00

2008-07-09T21:28:00.001-07:00

Who knows

2008-07-08T16:31:00.000-07:00

So we get home from our vacation and i am busy putting things away, looking at email, etc.... and Rob and I realize that Baylee is being awfully quiet. So we go into our extra bedroom and well you get the idea. She thought she was pretty smart getting into her baby seat and trying to buckle her self in!!!

Four Wheeling Fun!!

2008-07-08T15:52:00.000-07:00

Baylee went on her 2nd four wheeling ride. She was less than amused, she fell asleep twice!! But when she was awake she liked to point at everything. We rode all the way to the top of a mountain that overlooks Island Park. The view was so awesome!!! Baylee had a fun time with all of her cousins and when she got annoyed with them, she let them know!! We all had a fun time on our trip and we are sad that its over. Now we have to come back to the real world.

Yellowstone

2008-07-08T15:37:00.000-07:00

So over the 4th of July weekend we went on a trip to Island Park and Yellowstone with my family. It was a lot of fun, we took a day and went into the Park and we saw Buffalo and Elk. Rob was disappointed because we didn't get to see a Bear. We did see a lot of Geysers. By the end of the day Baylee had had enough, she didn't want to be in her carseat or stroller anymore!!

Miss Independent!!!

2008-06-27T09:21:00.000-07:00

So Baylee wants to start feeding herself! This morning while I'm feeding her her yogurt, she decides that she wants to try it..... So I give her the rest in the bowl and she goes to town. Of course it was all over her face, but she got about half of it in her mouth.
She's such a Big Girl!!

Fun at the ZOO

2008-06-20T19:19:00.000-07:00

We went to the Zoo today!!! Man was it hot, but we did have a lot of fun. Baylee really liked the monkeys, she kept saying oooo, oooo, then she puts her hand up to her armpit it's soooo funny. Most of the animals were sleeping and it seems like the Zoo has gotten smaller, but overall we had a good time.

Swim Time!!

2008-06-19T15:39:00.000-07:00

It was a hot day today, so we decided to get out the kiddie pool and have fun playing in the water! We also ate popsicles Baylee ate hers then she ate mine:). She was loving it!!! Look how cute her little hat is!!

oooh cold popsicle!!!

2008-06-16T21:57:00.001-07:00

2008-06-12T15:02:00.000-07:00

Nauvoo, Illinois

2008-06-08T18:38:00.001-07:00

We then went on to Nauvoo and there we went to the Temple which was gorgeous inside!! They have hard wood floors and everything inside is built exactly the way it would have been when the Saint built it back in 1846.

We went around to all of the different homes in Nauvoo. We saw Joseph's Smiths home and their family cemetery. We saw Brigham Youngs home, Wilford Woodruffs home, etc..... Basically we saw a lot of homes.

We also went to Carthage Jail and that was a neat experience in the picture above that is the Door that was shot through that killed Hyrum and Joseph. And that's the bullet hole, it was really neat to see. We had a really good time there. Although towards the end of the trip the houses all start to look the same!!!

Palmyra, NY

2008-06-08T18:22:00.000-07:00

We then went on from Canada to Palmyra, NY. There we went to the Palmyra Temple and to the Sacred Grove. The Temple there is so small you have to make an appt. before you can go!

This picture was taken when i was at the Smith family farm right outside the Sacred Grove. The missionaries there told us that they cut out an opening in the tree's so that you could see the Temple from there.

After church that Sunday we went into the Sacred Grove. That's Rob and I resting on a bench that was placed in there. The Grove is so big and so dense that it started raining when we were in there, but we couldn't even feel the rain drops. It's so beautiful in there and so peaceful, you can just feel the spirit in there. It was an awesome feeling!

Niagara Falls, Canada

2008-06-08T18:11:00.000-07:00

Our trip back east started out in Niagara Falls, Cananda! It was so pretty there the Falls are unbelieveable. When you get closer to them the mist is so powerful you get soaking wet! It was a lot of fun. Although I do have to say that Canada is a little weird. We stayed in Ontario and there was this one street that reminded me of Universal Studios. They had like 7 Haunted Houses and like 5 Wax muesems, it was so weird.

Friday night at the Falls the have a big Firework show that is over the Falls and that was really awesome.

Baylee's First Haircut

2008-06-08T17:56:00.000-07:00

Baylee's first haircut! I know she doesn't have a lot of hair to begin with, but she was getting a mullet in the back so we had to cut some off.

I was at work so Rob took her over to his mom's and she cut her hair. Rob said she did really good. We put some of her hair in a little baggy so I could put it in her baby book!!
