This weeks FUN...

DIG PINK volleyball game against Green River--each year when we play Green River we have the 'dig pink' game.. both teams wear pink uniforms, donated by the hospital, for breast cancer awareness week.

Anytime I go to a game, it makes me miss coaching...someday I will get back into it, but for now I am truly loving my little boy!!!

It is a neat cause and lots of money is raised and donated to help in finding a cure for cancer...

My happy baby!! He LOVED the volleyball game!! and all the cute girls:)!! They got him this cute tiger volleyball onsie to wear to their vball games!

LOTS of PINK

The Tigers WON in 3 games and get to keep the trophy yet another year!! YAY!

This week was Fire Prevention week. Steve and some of his fellow fire fighters presented in all the schools this week. The go through SPARKY's fire prevention ABC's. The kids are SOOOO stinkin' cute! I got to go watch when they did their presentation at Westridge Elem.


Here are the home town favorites demonstrating how to crawl under the smoke... Easton Cochrin, Camden Smith, Seth Atkinson, Asher Griffen, and a little boy I don't know:) At Sage, Chandler Smith got to help show stop, droop, and roll. They were all too cute!!

Below is Steve and a teacher at the school about to race to put the fire fighter gear on in less than 1 minute. All the kids started chanting their teacher name :) SPARKY of course 'helped' Steve and the teacher won and all the kids cheered! :)

Kids chanting...

SPARKY 'helping'...

Teacher won...

All the kids loved SPARKY and learning about fire prevention!! These guys do a great job and it is fun to watch!!

After the presentation, teachers can take their class outside and the fire fighters give them a tour of the fire truck and show off the tools:)

The firefighter, in the SPARKY suit, told us a funny story after all the kids had left...

Converstaion w/ little boy...
little boy- are you a real dog?
fire fighter in SPARKY suit- nods yes
little boy- Then prove it! Speak!

Fire fighter wated to say...Dogs don't speak!!!

Anyways, we all thought it was funny!!!

Fire Fighter Steve Says...

It's Fire Prevention week and Steve is busy all week at all the schools doing presentations. Somehow his Captain, who designes all the posters and bookmarks, talked us into being on the poster?? There are posters at every school...eek:). Tell your kids to be ready to volunteer to be Fire Fighter Steve's helper!!

I love the 'Fire Fighter Steve Says' line...I use it all the time when I start converstaions with Steve!! He is probably getting sick of me:)

Littlest Mighty Hunter

Steve was up deer hunting for 4 days...Broden and I met him up there the last day to join in on the fun!! He did great bouncing around in the truck on the dirt roads all day!

It was chilly so Broden got to be all bundled up:)

Sleepy in the camper...

In other baby news :)...
My baby is a good little sleeper! Here are some random sleppy Broden pics...

He is LOVING the new toys he gets to play with!! He loved this one when we were at a friends house, so I decided to finally set his bouncer up!

He isn't tall enough to touch the ground in this one, but he sure kicks his legs a ton!!

He loves to get to go to Jen's when I go to work...
who wouldn't when you have this CUTE older girl always there to give you kisses?!

And who wouldn't want to play transformers with this boy?! He is SO cute...he puts a transformer on Bronden's stomach when he is playing to include him in the fun!

I put him up next to a preemie outfit...oh my how he has grown fast!! I almost can't believe that little preemie outfit used to be huge on him...He is 5 months and 16lbs!!
