Annual spring branding in Malad.  The kids love to go although there isn't
much for them to do anymore.  They just want to be with cousins and play
on the hay bales and chase the cows.

Baby Kittens

Our Cat, Tiger, had four kittens.  Long story but here is the short version.
We had her fixed over a year ago, and not to long after she went missing.
Several months later she showed up, and then this spring she had babies,
so you come to whatever conclusion you want but we still ended up with
kittens.  Luckily we got rid of three of them and the kids wanted to keep
Racer, who looks just like her mom.  Kittens are fun but grow up to be big 
cats.  Presley and Jackson can't leave her along for long, very surprised 
she has survived all the love they give her.

CHEERS!  We are in Mexico!  Kim, Terrie Ann and Lori


Releasing our baby turtle that received the name of "CRUSH", He was so dang cute!
Headed to dinner.
Getting ready for the zip lines, that were a blast. Loved every minute of it!!
Here is the house we stayed at, it was absolutely wonderful, didn't want to leave!

Easter 2009

Here is Grandpa and his grandkids on Easter.  We went to Heather's house for dinner, it was so nice to not have to cook.  The kids had a fun time with their cousins.

Miss Presley  took Taylor's monsterous chocolate bunny and helped herself to all that chocolate.
All ready for church.
Easter morning: the kids are sporting some nice hair and some yummy chocolate bunnies.


Pinewood Derby

This was Dallin's 2nd Pinewood Derby and we again waited until the last minute to get the car done.  This year he painted it black and silver and it looked good.  He ended up taking 2nd place and was really happy about that.

The Kids

Our recent trip to St. George, the boys wanted to go through the narrows and hike on the red rocks.  Presley played in the sand and enjoyed posing for pictures.  Proof in the picture below.


This is Presley at one of Dallin's basketball games.
Presley ready for church in one of her "beautiful dresses" which she asks to wear daily.  I have to remind her that beautiful dresses are for church.

Dallin just finished his basketball season.  He had a good team and he really enjoyed playing.  Now on to soccer every Saturday.


Ms. Presley got into my purse and found my colorstay lipstick that stayed on her face for 4 days.  I tried everything to get it off but it just had to wear off.  Now only if it stayed that well on your lips!  Everyone thought she had hurt her eye she got a lot of stares.
The kids enjoying one of the many snow falls we had this winter.  Every time I think I can put the snow clothes away it snows again.  It is April 1st and we still have snow on the ground.

We try and perform the nativity on Christmas Eve and it always turns out so cute.  The kids love the stuff they get to wear (thanks Oma for making them!)


This is Christmas Eve at our house.  Santa and Mrs. Claus came and brought the kids a gift.

My very handsome Dallin!

Jackson with those sweet blue eyes!


I believe Miss Presley's face says it all in this photo.

Here are a few of my favorite pictures that we were able to get of the kids.

Skidmore Family Picture

Although most of you have seen this from e-mail, facebook or Christmas cards here is the latest photo of the family.  If you are looking for a good photographer I can give you her name she did a great job with the kids.  We were really impressed!  Dallin is 9, Jackson is 5, and Presley is 22 months in this photo.
