4th weekend in April..... The Mangelsons visit!

Donna and the fam came down for the weekend. It was nice to hang out and spend time with them.
One of the days we went to Judd's for lunch! So yummy!
If you've never been there I highly recommend it.
It's on Tabernacle in St. George.
It has good soups and bread sticks and also tons of old style candy, always a good flash back.






While me and the girls went shopping the boys were fixing up Mary's car.









Later we hit up Pirate island, kind of a tradition when they come to town,.
I think this picture can sum up the size of the 'Kracken' The biggest pizza they have there. It usually feeds all of us plus some.




















Saturday while Donna, Hannah, Mary and their families spent time in the st. george water play area Kole and I went up to Tropic for Korbin's Baptism!
He is such a cute kid!!
Congrats Little Buddy!!
Korbin and his grandpa.












Korbin, Kasey and Kaden




Later that night hannah made us dinner at her house.
While Donna and Jared ran errands Kole and I took the girls to the pond. Kole taught us how to skip rocks. (I'm not very good at it... Kole taught me the trick and I skipped my first rock...EVER!!!)


















The next day we all went out and got our individual family pictures taken. (it comes in handy to have a nice camera) I'll post pictures of that later.
Lucas, Donna, Hannah, Mary and Me.









Thanks for the fun weekend Sisters!!!

3rd weekend in April... The Ramsays Visit!!

So I need to warn you!! The next few posts are going to have TONS of pictures!! :)

Kasey and his family came on Thursday night so we could get up bright and early and not waste a second of the weekend! Can I just say...We didn't waste any minute of it!!
Trinity didn't want to go to school that day so we let her have a "sick day" so she could play with all the kids.
She is on the Bawden side of our family but doesn't have any cousins down here so Kole's family has been nice enough to sort of adopt her into the Ramsay cousins.
She loves it! All weekend she kept telling her mom, "I'm a Ramsay now!"

First thing on our list.... Fishing!!!! We have a little pond by our house that we went down to. No luck catching fish but the kids had fun playing in the water and getting seashells.





























Since we weren't having any luck there we drove just up the road to Coral Canyon where they have a fun little pond as well.
Kole and Trin.


















Kris and Korbin

later that night Kole's Dad came up from Vegas.
Looking at guns in the living room is pretty much the norm for our family:)



The nest day we celebrated Korbin's 8th birthday!!
The adults started early going to yard sales.
then later we all went to Pirate Island Pizza for a big party where more family joined us!
Korbin opening his presents!


Some of the kids.









After the party we went to some pawn shops and Bobby got a sweet little 4-wheeler.
Kris brought his over so for the next couple of hours the kids and adults took turns driving up the road to the dirt lots and playing with the new toy!!




Madison, Danielle and Me. Just hanging out.



Later in the night we had a yummy bbq. Man does my hubby know how to cook!! So good and it fed Lots and lots of people!!

















The empty lot next to our house came in handy! My father in law was able to park there all weekend. I love our quiet little niegborhood.

The next day we went down to the river out by Virgin.
We relaxed, and hung out.
We played lots of fetch with the dogs....


















And the kids....


















It was really muddy and the water wasn't so warm so Korbin was helping everyone wash off with his new water gun.



















Kole and Me


















Ramsay boys..
Kris, Kole, Kasey and Bobby.


















The whole gang..


















While the adults were getting all packed up the kids enjoyed some icecream:)


















it was such a busy, fun weekend!

2nd weekend in April.. I told you we've been busy!!!

So the second weekend in April Kole was away for Drill. I was hanging out with My sister Mary and her daughter Trinity and we decided that it would be a good idea to drive up to Orem for the day and go to our nephew William and our Niece Emily's birthday party. It was so last minute, but it was so fun to see everyone and surprise them!!
