God Saw He Was Getting Tired

God saw he was getting tired,
And a cure was not to be.
So He put His arms around him,
And whispered, "Come with me."

With tearful eyes we watched him suffer
And saw him fade away.
Although we loved him dearly,
We couldn't make him stay.

A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard working hands laid to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He only takes the best.

This poem is for my dad. I love him so much. I'm glad I was there in his final days to tell him how much I loved him, always and forever. Daddy, rest in peace and give my brother lots of hugs for me.
I LOVE YOU DAD, WITH ALL MY HEART!

Christmas........

We celebrated Christmas like we do every year on the 25th of Dec. Then on the 26th of Dec my parents come to Utah and we celebrate it again. This year with a pleasant surprise my sister, Christina and her boy friend Chris came up as well. My sister doesn't come up to often but this year I got to see her twice. Once for Thanksgiving and again for Christmas. It was really nice having us all together to celebrate the birth of Christ! All to often I take "life" for granted and that each and every morning I will wake up and start the routine all over again. I am always on the GO, this year I tried to slow it down to savor every moment with my daddy. He is in the fight for his life with cancer. We need lots of prayers!! Here are some pictures of Christmas.

Congrats to Justin and Sara!!

On Christmas morning Justin proposed to Sara at our house. We put the ring in the ice box, after everyone opened gifts Justin asked Sara for a glass of ice water. She got the cup, opened the ice box and OMG the ring was sitting in the ice box. It was AWESOME....So many tears of happiness that morning. They haven't set a date but stay tuned. Here are some pictures of this event!

Happy Birthday Britin!

My grandson turned 2 years old this month! He is such a awesome and smart boy! Here are some pictures from the birthday party!

TIMPVIEW TOOK STATE

This was an awesome game against Springville. It was at the Uof U and what a nail biter it was! Jon didnt get to play not once, dang it but he has to do his time. Jonathan will be a Junio next year and he will be explosive. I'm so proud of him and I CANT wait until year year!!

~Jada~

So i was looking through my pictures and I came across a few funny sleeping pictures of Jada. Jada is so funny, she runs and runs and alot of times she falls asleep so fast and it really doesn't matter where she is at. Once she stops, she sleeps....

GOING to the play-offs!!

Whoo Hoo, Timpview is going to the play-off. The 3rd play-off game is at the University of Utah and we will be playing Mountain Crest High School. This game will be a nail biter as we played them in the play-off's last year and it was a close game. If we win this game the championship game will be at the University of Utah as well.
GOOO TIMPVIEW!!!

Sadies Dance

This past weekend Jonathan was asked(again, geez) to the Sadies dance by a young lady named Mindy. She is a Sophomore cheerleader and is adorable. The group dressed up as "nerds"...... I love his tie!!!

I LOVE ROD WORKS!!

Everytime I walk into Rod Works I fall in love all over again.....they have the cutest items in that store.....I wish I had a million bucks so I can go wild, but that will not happen so I will stick with my little trips. I finally have school pictures hung, we have had so many remodel projects at my house(over 3 years) that have taken forever and yes, I finally hung these adorable pictures frames(with beautiful kids to fill them) and all the extra's by myself(well kind, Eric hung and I decorated)

As you will notice, Jonathan didnt take school pictures, just a school ID....Dohhh

Wheeler Farms

We had a finance get to gether @ Wheeler farms last weekend. The girls are such animals lovers, they loved every minute of it. I, of course, could have lived without the stank! :) They had horses, pigs, ducks, cows, sheep, chicks, hens, and much more.

Sadies Dance

Today I got a surprise on the phone, a young lady called me and ask if I was Jonathan's mom and I said YES, she said she wanted to ask Jonathan to the Sadies dance and wanted to decorate his room......I was shocked! My son, 16 years old, getting asked to a dance! OMG, Am I really ready for this? So, I said "OK" she came over and decorated his room full of balloons and blow pops. There was a note that said, I'd be blown away if you went to the Sadies Dance with me. J0nathan needed to figure out who this young lady was who wanted to go to the dance with him so he had to pop the helium balloons to find out a letters of her name within the balloon. Once he popped the balloon's, we pulled the letter's together and it spelled her name. It was so cute.......I snuck some pictures....

Arizona Visit!

This past weekend was a nice surprise as we got a visit from my cousin Donna and Rob. They live in Arizona and they came out to Utah to see the Rolex car series @ Miller Motor Sports. On Friday night they went to see Jonathan play on Varsity @ Timpview. Saturday morning we went to breakfast and then they were off to the raceways. We met up with them again for dinner @ Texas Roadhouse, YUMMY! It was a very nice visit! Thanks Donna and Rob for coming to Utah, it was allot of fun!

Another Steller Football Touchdown!

Cecil(my bro-in-law) and another photographer stand at field level and take some amazing pictures. These photo's really brighten Jonathan's stellar football moves. Here is Jonathan playing Mountain View HS @ Timpview JV game making 1 of 4 touchdowns. Check this picture out! Can you tell I'm a very proud mom??

Timpview VS. Mountain View 9/10/09

I haven't blogged much about Jonathan's(#26) games since I haven't took too many pictures. This game was our 1st real game and the last 3 were pre-season games. Jonathan has "played up" and a lot of time when you "play up" you don't get to much playing time but on this game Jonathan did get some good playing time and he got 4 touch downs(most ever in 1 game) and he also gained 60 yards on a kick punt return......Here is Jonathan making a TD....YAY!!! Tonight we play Mountain Varsity team @ Mountain View HS.......

Party at Lagoon..........

This summer we took the family to Lagoon, for all of you that know me I have a HUGE family. So the only way we were able to go is thanks to my friend Chieko cause her son works at Lagoon and we got AWESOME a discount. My nephew was in town for a few weeks too and we took him also!!. Gosh I love having him here with us! So we spend the day at Lagoon and had a blast!! Here are some pictures and then we bounced back and had double THE FUN!!!
