EASTER!!!!

CALIFORNIA! 3-15-08 to 3-19-08

This was a great Spring Break!!! We went on a much needed vacation! We enjoyed every bit of it. (Accept the driving home late part.) :o) Our original plan was to jump in on the Petersons plans and spend two days at Seaworld and one day at the beach but then we all decided to do one day at Sea World and two days at Disneyland which was so much fun! But, we allready booked our hotel in San Diego and we couldn't change it (priceline) so we drove an hour in the morning to get to Disneyland and then an hour at 12:30 at night to get back to our hotel. We were praying each night to make it safely to the hotel. We got home each night about 1:30 or 2 AM!!! SCARY! But, it was worth the drive! The kids had a blast and so did the Adults and it was much cheaper than gong to Disney World. We will have plenty of time to do that later....

THE BEACH!!! 3-15-08

All ready to go to the Beach!

BURRR!!! The beach is cold! Petersons & Palmers on the Beach

Tyler & Zack Peterson before they got plowed over by a big WAVE!

Katrina isn't too sure about the ocean

Tyler after he got plowed over by the WAVE! Zack got soaked too but they left cuz he was cold and not happy he got wet.

Tim and Tyler, running and playing in the water. Since Tyler got wet, they figured they might as well get more wet and enjoy it. Even though it was really cold! I could feel my ear infection coming back because of the cold wind blowing in my ears.

The beautiful sun set before we left the beach.

So much FUN!

Does Kenna look tired???

Tyler is all about JEDI now. He got a Light Saber.

Twilight Dinner on Canyon Lake

I planned a suprise date for Tim with my brother Jaymie and his wife Donna. We had a twilight dinner on the Dolly Steamboat on Canyon Lake. It was so cool. We really enjoyed it. I thought I got a picture with Jaymie & Donna too. Humm....well, if I find it I will post it. There is a reason I got a picture of the side of the mountain....it might be hard to tell, but it looks like a Elephant in the rock. Use your imagination....its kind of like finding shapes in the clouds. :o) The other picture is of the scenery behind us as we go through the canyon.

Helping Grandpa Jones

Tyler LOVES to help Grandpa Jones pick oranges. He picked two 5 gal. buckets of Navels in a FLASH and made .50 cents a bucket! WOW that is more than what I got growing up! Then he goes down to Grandpas citrus stand and buys a cookie or soda pop. That is the highlight of his day!

SPOILED!

Tim rented a Convertable Mustang while we were in Georgia. He says I am spoiled. He really wanted to rent the Mustang too, so he is spoiled too!!! Sadly it was way too cold most of the week to even put the top down while we were there. We had it down the first day... then it snowed the next day and was cold all week. It warmed up a little on Friday so on our way to the airport we put the top down. We just had to use it even though it was still 50* outside. And the reward I got from it was a doubble inner ear infection and swollen tonsils. Wahoo...... We decided we needed pictures to remeber the one time we got to drive a Mustang, so we stoped in the Costco parking lot and got pictures of eachother. SILLY!

Lehi Days RODEO!!!

So I got brave and let Tyler Ride a BUCKING COW in the rodeo!!!! I was so releived to see they put helmets on these kids. Unfortunatelly, all I got was video. I havent ever tried posting a video before. Lets see if it works....... The kids also did the chicken races. They had fun chasing the

chickens. Also, here are pictures of the kids riding ponys and petting chickens. Wahoo.....

Catching Up!

So I am trying to catch up on life and not have every posting be about moving to Georgia... So here are some other fun things we have been doing lately!

Tyler & Kenna's cousins (My Sister) came to visit from Holland (Netherlands) They had lots of fun... From Picking Oranges to Making Pictures to the LONG awaited Sleep Overs..... here are some pics.
