Memorial Day Weekend

I know this is a week late, but I just got a chance to sit down and post.

Last Weekend we had lots of fun. It all started on Friday when April, an old friend from Brigham came for a visit. We had lot's of fun with a girls night out on the Trampoline and then spent Saturday visiting Ramsey Canyon and Tombstone. I was bad a only got two pictures of the kids a Tombstone so here they are:

Then on Sunday Beth's family came to visit the kids love when the Owens come to play:

The boys went to check out an old Ghost town with Grandpa Manwarings metal detector, but no treasure to be found.

The girls stayed home and played in the sprinklers while Beth taught me how to make these easy, cute skirts. Megan is in heaven cuz she can wear them all summer ( She loves her dresses)

We ended the day with a BBQ, some yummy dutch oven peach cobbler and a backyard movie, the kids wanted to sleep outside, but by the time we headed to bed ourselves they were all inside.

While the Boys are away the girls will Play

Megan and I got to do something really fun tonight for girls night

while the boys headed up the mountain for Fathers and Son camp out.

We got to participate in a relay for life cancer walk.

There is a little girl in Megans kindergarten class named Zoe, that is a cancer survivor. She was born with eye cancer and has had many surgeries and fought very hard already in her very young life. Tonight Megans awesome teacher organized for the kids in the class to walk with her. We had a lot of fun waking around the park with all the Cancer survivors here in Sierra Vista. It is amazing to me how many people are fighting every day just to stay alive, I was very touched and amazed at their strength.

Here are some pits of our fun night.

Giving Giving Giving

OK, so I am a little bored and I really wanted to see what my sister would make for me, so I will do it too.



This is how it works:

The first three people to type "Give Me Something!" in the comments on this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you. The catch is that you must re-post this on your blog and give the same offer to the first three commenter's who will also craft it forward.



Here are my contingencies:

1. I make no guarantee that you will like what I make!

2. What I create will be just for you.

3. It will be done this year.

4. You have no clue what it's going to be.

5. I reserve the right to make something extremely strange.

6. You must post a picture of what you win when you get it.



Have fun!
