An Evening at Thanksgiving Point Farm



My kids have always loved this place. Avery was so into the animals it was awesome. She got right in and fed the cows, they would lick her hand she would sick out about it and then go in for more. She was giving the donkey kisses and loves and then a lady told me he bit her last time she was there. I was letting her get a little too friendly I guess. We found some little mice trying to sneak some food from the chickens, when they would get so close the chickens would go crazy and chase them off. I could have watched this show for hours.








When mom is away how does she play?



I went down to Arizona for a meeting and extended my stay at Heidi's house last weekend. I had so much fun catching up with her. We used to be room mates 10 years ago and she is like family to me. Her other friends Tawnie and Lisa were there and she showed us a great time. Her house is amazing in the desert hills over looking a golf course. We couldn't of asked for a better time, she showed up great food, shopping, and a nice pool to catch some sun in her backyard. Dave her husband was quite the host
to with our iced lattes ready for us if we should decide to wake up

before noon. Thanks and I am looking forward to coming back soon.
Lisa, me, Tawnie and Heidi










Soccer Chics



























This was Zoey and Addi's first year of soccer and they loved it. Zoey spent a lot of time doing cartwheels when she should be blocking goals but the went undefeated and had a great time and got a gold medal for first place. Addisyn was awesome too. She was one of the most aggressive players which is kind of unlike her. She is usually pretty shy but she got right in there and was awesome. She was the best goalie and didn't let anything past her. She would dive right on it and got her fingers smashed but it didn't stop her. It was really fun to watch these little ones and they wish it wasn't over

Zoey's is 7!



Today is Zoey's 7th birthday and we celebrated it up at the cabin with all of the Richards clan. There are 10 birthdays in September including my dad's, Dyson's, and Wades. We had lots of food, cake, and homeade rootbeer. Zoey got a pink Ipod Nano full of Hanna Montana and The Jonas Bros, and HSM. Now I can have mine back and get some tunes I like. It is so fun to get together as a family and
enjoy each others company. Look at these cute twins could they be any more opposite?

Zoey's turns 7 Birthday Party

Lifegaurds on duty











What a crazy three days I have had. Started with a full day of work, then drill team practice thursday night 5-10:30, Homecoming assembly Friday morning, football game half time performance friday night, and 2 soccer games on Saturday, if that isn't enough I decided to host a birthday party for 11 little girls saturday afternoon. Jodie was out of town riding his bike in the LOTTAJA race ( Logan to Jackson Hole Wy 210 miles in 1 day). Thanks to my family helping me out everything went well. Her birthday is really on the 20th but I had to take advantage of the weather and the pool. We had a swim party at my moms, pizza, banana splits, and glitter toes for all. We actually ran out of time which is better than having too much time. Zoey had fun and so did all of her friends. Now I am off to Arizona for a Regional Sales meeting and then I am spending a few days with Heidi while I am there. I jswear I am always on the go and never have time to catch up.

So it's time for the class of 89- 89 -80 -80 -80- 80 -89 ( little chant we did) to come back and put on the pep assembly. I remeber when I was in HS the class of 69 came back. I can't believe it is our turn already. Very sad how time flies, but for the most part who we are is the same. It was so fun to see everyone. It feels like just yesterday we all were hangin out, that is a sign of good solid friendship when you reunite you just pick up where you left off. We did a Degis and Shelley skit, Sher, Danny, and Aaron were Degis, Kelly, and Gilmon. They were awesome. I got my old Varsity cheer outfit on, sprayed up my bangs and Rhonda and I represented. Cory and Brandon are SF cops and they were great. I am going to put on my video of them as soon as I can. It was a fun morning, and then I came back to perform at half time with the Drill team from the past 20 years. Loved it! Thanks to all of you who came, It was a great day. I will look forward to seeing more of Class of 89 next summer at the 20 year reunion! We still have it
