The year of dance

This last spring has brought many things into my busy life. I had school, baseball with Myles and Max. This is my son Max trying his hardest to hit a home run over the fence. He did it once at a practice...and he tried again and again ...he got so very close.

 Look at his swing! He ready to kill it!!

Then Shea decide to do dance at Jeanie's dance studio just like her cousins Cosette and Savannah. Cute kids!! I think so and they are not mine..

Shea loved dance more than I figured she would.. She was so busy helping her cousins do their hair and makeup she never would hold still for me to get a picture..

Third child in Choir

Myles is our third child born and third child to join Kino Jr, high choir. It is fun to watch another song bird.

Scouts

My son Myles has been in scouts since he was eight. He has done many things to receive badges for what he has accomplished. I am so glad to see the effort he continues to make with the scouting program.
I know it not always an easy task to go on the many hick or outing that scouts requires but Myles has show an effort.







Watch out don't pin the mom! He was careful..what a thoughtful son!

To blog or not to blog

It not an easy task to blog when your going to school full time and deal with five active kids in school. The homework keeps me on the computer more than I prefer.
This past couple of months my cat Oreo had five little kittens. She has always been a afraidy cat. I know why the faze was given it. Oreo mothering instincts kick in and she was a great momma cat.
I helped hand feeding them when needed. My kids love them more than anything..

My youngest had the deepest bond with the kittens. Every time his bus would beep to get him off the kitten would run to meet him at the door.
We gave the kittens to good homes..and momma cat is having with drawls for her kittens.

My good friend Michelle

Michele and I became friend when we were on our mission in Seattle, Washington March 2002. I knew her as Sister Nix. The first time I should have meet her would of been at transfers but I happen to get really sick with a fever and bronchitis so I stayed with a member family in bed. So, Sis. Nix came to me as my companion with a member. She was mad at me for not being there at transfers to pick her up.
We were companions for three months which created a bond that would last for a long time. Our companionship wasn't any easy one because of issue which had been brought out with me. When serving other you would be surprised what learn about yourself. Michelle told me this we were friends in the preexistence and that she promised me that she would help me with the path I had chosen because she knew it wouldn't be an easy one. She wrote this to me at end of our companion.... "Sis. Miles you know the song somewhere out there? Just know that there is someone always out there beneth the big blue shy that loves you and is thinking of you." The funny thing is its the opposite know.
We stayed friends after our mission and was married within weeks of each other. I went to her wedding in Salt lake valley and she came to mine as my brides maid honor.
This is at her wedding!



My honor brides maid..she support me in so many ways.















Life has a way of just continuing to go on and it did for both us. She was their to listen to me and to give me advise when needed. We stayed friends for a long time then she got breast cancer. It considered me greatly so as I prayed for my friend. I lost my good friend to breast cancer. Her husband told me when she died that she would be my Guardian angel. I think of her often and so grateful for the time i did have to be her friend.
Many times when I have experienced great emotional pain I have felt her presents next to me. I look forward to the day I can throw my arms around her and give her a great big hug and tell her I have miss you my friend!

Myles 12th Birthday

I have four birthdays in the summer months out of my five children. Myles is one of them born June 8th. We decided to have his party at pool which has wave rider. He paid for another three of of ridding the wave rider. My youngest son Max even tired it but never lasted to long. He wanted to rid it better and got upset when he didn't.
The Allen kids came to Myles party and Jared rode it too.



















Savannah got into the action with eating the cake which melted from hot sun. It was tasty as seen from her face.

Graduation of my freinds son

On Thursday of this week I went to a graduation in Florance Arizona. I have never been to Florance before but it was an adventure.
I would like to think that Denise spirit was there that night watching her son in one of the biggest moments of his life. He is a sweet kid and think she would be proud of her son.
Our kids have been freinds since they were babies.
