Disneyland!

I finally got the camera out of the car. I know you have been waiting for pictures from our trip so here you go...
The first thing we did was hope on the train, so this is the first ride of our trip. (other than the long car ride) Small World and lollipops. Koda liked this one, he was mad when we had to get off the boat
Koda loves Lightning McQueen

Taking a break


The Buzz Light Year Ride
Waiting for Roger Rabbit


Koda didn't make it. He slept for over 3 hours but I got to check out the place where all of the princesses hang out and watch all of the little girls get their faces painted.

Pirates


The Jungle Cruise. Koda and I were partners, the big boys were on Indiana Jones.

Woody!

Koda loved the Pixar Parade

And the characters loved him.

Me, Trevor and Koda with our bug eyes. Me and Koda saw all of the 3D movies but we saw this one 3 times.
Handy Manny.
Koda and Koda. We actually got his name from the movie Brother Bear, so I made sure to get a picture with the two Kodas.

It was a fun time. One of the kids favorite things was the pool at the hotel so maybe next time we wont go so far if all they want to do is swim at the hotel.

dance flash back

I just scanned some dance pictures from high school for our wards 80's dance. I can't promise a lot of flash backs but I thought I would try it.

My first dance. Jr Prom with Beau Carlson (there is a long, very sad story behind this hair cut)
Monster Mash with Blaze Cook (we didn't tell our dates they were going to be brides. There was no way they would go along with that. Oh and I accidentally stole those bowling shoes from the 49th street galleria, my philosophy was it's not wrong if it's funny)

WA with Meredith Blake, Colette Christensen and Tara Grazier (we thought we would have more fun with out dates)


My last high school dance with Craig Oborn Sr Prom (my school wasn't famous for formal dances)



I thought I would throw in one of Clayton's I don't know any details but I do like his feathered hair do.






Bodie is 7

Friday was Bodie's birthday. We went to Jungle Jims. We like it when the party is not at our house because then we don't have to clean up a mess!
My camera died so I didn't get very many pictures.
Clayton was the token keeper/hander outer

When I asked Bodie who he wanted to invite he named off a bunch of little girls. I told him we should invite the kids he plays with at recess and he told me that is who he plays with at recess. They play babies. One of the moms called and said her daughter really wanted to get Bodie a baby for his b-day but she told her no way. At least it would have been something he doesn't already have.


Uncle Kevin


Clayton is going to be promoted to Sergeant First Class really soon he just has a little more training to do. He just got back from Sacramento where he did 3 weeks worth of schooling (only about 5 more weeks to go) Any way, while he was gone McArthur Homes (my job) was having a grand opening and I was working full time. Lucky for us Kevin is looking for a job and was able to help out with the boys. He is a really good baby sitter, not only does he love my boys but he does fun things with them. I remember when Trevor was a baby Kevin was watching him and when I got back Kevin was rocking him and playing the harmonica to him. See, he is the best!
Trevor had to make a Valentines box for school and wanted to make a Lego, so Kevin helped him. Then Bodie wanted to make a toilet for his Valentine box so they went to KFC to get a round box the to Home Depot to get a flusher and paint. The toilet turned out really cool, you have to flush it to drop your valentine in. Thanks Kevin! After spending the whole day on Valentine boxes Bodie informed us that he already made one at school and didn't need one he just wanted Kevin to make it for fun. Well Kevin, was it fun?
