Just Peachy

Sweet and Juicy. Yum yum yum. Come May it is always time for our annual trip to Shnef Farms in Queen Creek for the peach festival. We were able to find a few good ones. This past spring was a bit cooler than usual (no complains here) and the peaches were not as ripe this time around. They actually had to push the festival back a week so the peaches could ripen up.

I went two more times after this to pick peaches once with Jenny and once with the kids. OMG, they were sooooo sweet and juicy.

For Memorial day weekend we went up to Prescott and Granny showed me how to make pies. We look forward all year to her whole made peach pie.

Sharpie Too

Matt Leinhart. College stud to NFL dud. Now that Kurt Warner has retired we will see if Matt can "throw the ball." Who knows maybe these autographs will be worth more than a memorie someday.

Sharpie 1

It was so crowed they were only able to get two autographs and Max Hall was one of them. We don't need to mention that he committed to ASU then turned on us to play for BYU. As you can see they didn't hold it against him.

My shy Colin couldn't wait to run the obstacle course. All three of the boys participated but I think that Colin enjoyed it the most.

Cardinal Fan Day

Just can't get enough football around this family. The boys went with Uncle Tim and Matthew and had a blast. Cole was so excited that he got to see "Red Bird".

My Actual Birhtday

This is the final celebration! April 22, 2010, burgers and cupcakes.

More Bounce U

Cake

Yes another Sponge Bob cake. This was the cake cole had seen weeks before the party and I kept asking him "are you sure you don't want Mommy to make cupcakes?" He couldn't wait to show all his friends. As you can see from all the sweat he was playing and bouncing hard.

Party Two

The only thing Cole talked about for months was having his party at Bounce U. He couldn't wait for the day to come. He had all his friends: Carter, Colin, Logan, Aspen, Hayden, Kaylie, Jordan, Gavin, Emma, Sarah, Max, Matthew, Makayla and Max. He loved all the attention he was getting form everyone, especially the girls that worked their.

The Open Road

Grandma and Papa thought it would be fun to go to an arcade to play some games and drive the bumper cars. Cole was in his glory again when he got to drive with Papa on his motorcycle to the arcade. He could ride with Papa all day long, he just can't get enough of it. He has the helmet maybe be needs the leather jacket next.

Presents

Cole couldn't wait to open his presents from Grandma and Papa. He got a new stereo/cd play and some underwear. His new stereo rocks!

Birthday Boy

Happy birthday to you... Cole couldn't wait for his birthday! The weekend before his birthday we went up the hill because Granny wasn't feeling all that well. We took the party to her. Grandma got him a Sponge Bob cake and from the smile on his face you can tell he loved it.

The Bligh's

Xavier at four months.

Family

We had a really nice visit with Auntie Molly, Uncle Bill, Xavier and Papa on Easter. They came over in the morning for brunch and we got to enjoy their company. With such a busy schedule we didn't get to see them as much as we would have liked. Soon we hope they will be here for good.

So Cute

Auntie and her boys.

Cole & Xavier

What cute boys. They look more like brothers than cousins. Cole was so happy to hold him, talk to him and play with him. He was a good help to Auntie Molly when it was time to change his diaper.

Cole or Xavier

Take us back nine years and this would be Cole.

Our Easter Best

 

Easter

Cute Friends

Kylie, Cole, Colin, Kaylie, Hayden, Lexie, and Sadie

The Hunt is on

Eggs

Colin kept a close eye on his eggs. He wasn't about to share. Cole was excited about how many he had found

East Egg Hunt

We had our second annual Easter egg hunt with our two great neighbors, the Davison's and the Watkin's. Mike, John and Tyler had the fun of hiding all of the eggs. And when I say all of the eggs, we are talking about 200 eggs. The kids were so excited to first find them and then open them.

Finally

The boys were so excited to finally have Auntie, Uncle and Xavier over. They couldn't wait to hold him. He sure resembles Cole when Cole was the age. What memories it brings back when I look at Xavier.

Baptism Day

This was Baptism day. This was before the baptism. Xavier wanted to make sure the Jesus heard him loud and clear that evening. About halfway through the ceremony he wasn't to happy. I think he was ready for a nap. I think that was the only time we heard him cry!
