Ty's Graduation...and now we PLAY!

Look at that smart guy!!!

Road Trip to Vegas for Ty's Graduation! I'm a slacker...just now posting graduation pics!

Between Ty graduating and my maternity leave...we have some time on our hands for some FUN! Tonight...forts, popcorn, and movies!

Bath-time for Baby G! 2 month appointment...12 poounds 6 ounces...and shots! He deserves to soak!

This week we headed south to Park City to Gorgoza Park...an extreme sledding hill. Baby G stayed with Aunt Julie in Kaysville and the bigger boys and I went to risk it all on the sledding slopes. We had so much fun! Up the conveyer belt...up the rope tow...and down a mountain-full of danger! We loved it!

BEFORE...
AFTER!
With our extra time Ty and I have been working on some projects at home. First, the ottoman, we fixed the frame and gave it a face-lift...

We have also been refinishing an old, upright piano. First stripping...stripping...stripping...and stripping! Then stain. Next a couple layers of shellac, then hopefully we'll be done. We have recovered the bench, then after we paint it...it will be done! YEAH!

While the last few years have seemed like a tail-spin, it has definitly been one we will never forget! It seems like not that long ago I was 17 and waiting for my studly boyfriend to pick me up in his Jeep and take me water skiing. Then it was mission for Ty, college for me. After that...5 weeks to be exact we were married, less than a year-and-a-half later we had Big T, and built our first house. Next...Little P, a move to Vegas, PA School, a move back to Idaho, and now I plan to work toward an eventual retirement! Not a retirement from adventure, a semi-retirement from working full-time, and most importantly working NIGHTS! Why?!?!? Because Ty has GRADUATED and...PASSED his boards! We are so proud of our little PA-C! He has worked so hard all while the boys and I explored Vegas, played in the pool, and soaked up some sun! Now that Ty has graduated we have been more than enjoying having him around to join in on the fun and adventure of having...now 3...crazy boys!

Wow love the posts and the cute pictures and the projects! you are the project master. Oh how I wish we lived closer so you could whip me into shape with the projects!!!! Little "G" is so cute. I have to laugh because we call Ryder Boobers as well. Hal started calling him that around the same age as G and it has stuck. How manly is that!!! Love all your doings.
