aimee's big bachorlette bash!

my friend aimee has found love and is actually getting married on my birthday. this was her last night out on the town as a single girl! we started out the night out at the ocean clubthere were about 17 of us and we had so much fun enjoying all the fun stories about when we all first met aimee or just some great stories. we also enjoyed some very yummy food i've only ate there one time before & have craved it ever since!

then we ended up at the new w hotel that just opened in scottsdale, it's very nice we ended up hanging out on the lounge chairs by the pool. we also took lots of pictures. we sat & talked a lot....if anyone knows aimee she can talk. i just want to wish aimee the best of luck & i want her to know i love her & that i know she'll make the best wife.

quick trip

this weekend we went up to show low for rex's parents 45th anniversary party. they have just recently bought land up there & they've had the older kids up to visit, but we hadn't been up yet. they are there a lot in fact tatum said today why aren't grandma & grandpa ever here? it's there dream to be back there & now that they are both retired they are able to go back & forth whenever they like.
i didn't take one picture sorry, but we had such a fun time seeing a bunch of family that we usually don't see. it was fun hanging out playing games, letting the kids run wild....they were so dirty! the best part was riding on the quads they were fighting to ride them so grandma would pile them on. we had a great time, thanks for the invite & happy anniversary!

this summer we went to newport for a week with

tatum
i've missed blogging lots of stuff like

the girls dance recital in june. tatum

is like a pro after 3 years! i have to say

i'm finally getting it down too. so it was

a busy weekend for us tatum had to be

there all 3 nights. sydney had so much

fun this year too, she was having a blast

back in the dressing room helping tatum

change for her next performance. atleast

sydney only had 1 dance. i thought for sure

syd would want to try out for team, but no

she wasn't ready yet which is fine with me!

happy dad's day!!!

dad was going to be out of town so we all got together for lunch we
had so much fun. here's one of the pictures of papa & the grand kids being
SILLY of course!! your the best papa ever! (steven was out of town so we
missed him for sure.)

i just had to let my dad know that i love him so much! i know it's way passed

father's day,but i just wanted to share a little about how great my dad is.

my dad is so fun & very positive the only time to worry is when my dad's worried

except for when something scary has happened, like someone getting hurt he

completely freaks out! it's really kind of funny. one of the best things about my dad

is that he loves his family & always wants us around. whenever any of us would

leave to go out of town the minute we left he would tell the rest of us that he missed

us too much & wished we were back home. there's so many things, but i just wanted

you to know your the best & i love you. i also wanted my sweet husband to know

how much i appreciate & love him. you are such a great dad to our 3 wonderful kids.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

i just wanted to say happy birthday to emily! i had so much fun last night at the movies with alexa and bri watching one of our faves " what happens in vegas". then denny's at midnight you know the best time to go. YOU KNOW WHY! we shopped today then later tonight we went to dinner at fleming's....yummy with amanda, flloyd, bridget and dustin. i had tons of fun, i hope you had a great day too.
