First Day of School 2011

My Three Sons

These three were so excited for their first day of school that they were awake, ate breakfast, made their beds and ready to go before I even got up. It was awesome !!









Cole wanted to take a picture of me while we waited for the bus.



Here is my little kindergarten boy. He is thrilled to be going to the same school with his brothers ! Coley even wanted to ride the bus his very first day. It shocked me, so I went to the school in my car to make sure that he got to his classroom safe and sound. (I think I did it to make myself feel better) Here is my second grader. Still loves to draw and play with his friends. He loves to learn and is always full of energy and silliness. Excited for his first day !!







Here is the big Fifth grader. I truly can't believe how big he is. He is such a great helper for me and loves to help his brothers and sister. It really makes a big difference when he is with me. He is ready to be a big kid already, I am definitely not ready for it !!

Spudman 2011


Last year I watched Birtley compete in the Spudman Triathlon. It was fun to watch him and made me think it would be a fun thing to do, as a team. So I would mention that in conversation to friends to find out who would possibly do it with me. I found some awesome girls to do it with me. I am definitely intimidated by the swim in the Snake River, but not Kortney she was excited to do it and she did awesome. Gillian ran her butt off too !! It was such a fun time.

Here we are,The Three Amigas Team, go PINK !!!

Billy and I

Here is a picture of Birtley finishing at the very end. His finish time was approximately 2 hrs 35 minutes. Don't have the exact because his time chip fell off during his run without him even noticing.

I was glad that I made it, very excited as you can tell !


I am the one in pink. Here is me starting out on my 26.2 mile ride !!

Here is where all of the bikes are. I waited here for Kortney,then took off for my ride.


Here is the team Gillian(the runner), Me(the biker), and Kortney (the swimmer)
