HALF PIPE FUN....

So, our friends from Idaho came to visit and Brian decided that the half pipe can't be THAT hard to do. We were laughing SOOOOO hard as he tried to even roll back and forth on the skate board, and THEN, he decided to drop in, watch the following video for a good laugh!!! (and ignore my loud laugh while watching!!)





Here are a couple of cute shots of the kids playing. We miss being neighbors with the Christensons!!!

I AM A UTAH MAN SIR....

It's that time of year again where the RED in our blood comes alive!! We love UTAH!! Here are some tributes Steve has made! What a guy....

You can see Steve standing at the bottome of the U, that shows how big it is!!
You can see this U from soooooo far away, it is so awesome!! I hope it causes a lot of pain and anguish to all Y fans that drive by and see it!!
And he painted our half pipe with a Big U!! It is soooo cool!! I love my honey!!

BRANDON BAPTISM

What a fun weekend, Brandon Steven Newton got baptized by his Bapa!! It was so neat. Right after he came up out of the water his little cousin Brandt yelled out, "Good Job Brandon" it was the cutest thing ever!! We are so proud of you Brandon and love you so much!!

Thanks so much to all those who came to support and for all the phone calls and gifts from everyone. We felt your love from near and far!!




Bapa and Dad proud of Brandon boy!!

Your family loves you Brandon!

THE ROUTINE....

So, every time Steve sits down to eat little Miss Ryan comes running and stretches her arms out for Steve to pick her up and put her on his lap. This is what happens next....






WHAT THE?.....

First of all, how did Abi get into my blog to post the blog about being the WINNER!! She's a hacker!! And second, how did she get my camera and take all these pictures!! What a wild and crazy girl!!

The SUPPORT CREW!! Look at these cute boys. It's so great to see the kids so proud of their dad and to realize how great it is that he's riding in this race...

The girls, waiting for dad so we can give him his water and food... I tend to get a little stressed during this part, the kids really put up with a lot!!

He made it!!! 10 hours 16 minutes!! I am soooooo proud of him. He was strong and awesome!



He place 4th in his category, here he is on the podium..

Once agian our great friends/family the Christensons came to cheer Steve on. They drive to the feed zones and yell for him and then wait at the finish line with us.

Steve and the Vargas twins, fun times..
