Father's Day

We went to Jason's dad's house for a Father's Day BBQ. I was surprised that everyone made it. There was only one person missing out of the whole family. We just don't get together that often anymore so it was good to see everyone. His family is starting to get a lot bigger, the older kids (I guess they are young adults now) bring their boyfriends or girlfriends and some of them have kids. It was fun to get together. Jason is such a good father and I love him so much. I seriously don't know what I would do without him.

I got Jason the new Ghost Buster Video game for Father's Day. The kids enjoyed having something to do over the weekend. They are getting so bored. I am hoping for better weather so they can go outside and swim in the pool we bought this year. We put it up about a month ago and they have only been able to swim 2 times because of the weather. I am scared to look under the cover I bet it is nasty under there.

We did get the crib put up this weekend and the baby's room cleaned out. I don't know if I am going to have time to paint the room before she comes. I have been feeling so crappy lately. We were going to take the kids to Jason's brother's cabin this weekend, but they said that it is flooded and you can't use the toilet and the dish washer and the lawn is flooded. So I am kind of glad to have an excuse not to go. The kids were really looking forward to it. But I just didn't know if I could do it. I am worried that the baby is going to come early. Probably just wishful thinking but I have been induced with all my other kids and I am afraid to just go into labor on my own. What do you do? How do you know it is time? Who is going to watch the kids? It seems silly because I have had three other kids, but I have been in a hospital bed surround by nurses every other time from start to finish. It freaks me out to not know when she is coming.

Fishy Fishy

Jason went fishing in Idaho Saturday with my brothers and my dad. Cayden and Chase thought it was fun to touch the dead fish. Cayden liked to poke their eyes. They made dad promise to take them next time.

I cooked fish for the first time. My dad is the one who usually cooks the fish. It tasted great but I have alot to learn to perfect it.

One Month Left

So yesterday I go to the doctor and complained about how miserable I am. This pinched nerve in my leg is killing me. Anyways he said he could possible start me around the 10th of July. That is 1 month from today. That seems so soon yet so far away. Last night me and Jason were talking about how we are not sure how this baby is going to fit in to our lives. I am so excited to be having a little girl again. I have had fun buying girly stuff.

Our house is just so noisy the kids are bouncing off the walls. We feel like we need to prepare them to talk quietly and quit jumping on each other. I am afraid it is going to be a huge adjustment for everyone. I'm kind of freaking out.

Free Kittens

We have 5 kittens we are hoping to give to good homes. The pic below is two kittens from the same litter, it is have the size of the other ones. Way cute. So if anyone knows anyone that might want one let me know.

Memorial Day at Dinosuar Park

We decided to go to Dinosaur Park on Memorial Day. We had no power for 30 hours and needed to get out. I knew Cayden would love it, he is really into dinosaurs.

My sister Amy and her two kids Maisie and Parker came with us.

It was really funny when Maisie stuck her head through the board and couldn't get it out. Sorry Maisie I couldn't help but laugh. I bet it was really scary though.

Kelsey, Chase and Parker

I couldn't find Cayden for a minute and then looked over and saw his tiny face poking through the board.

We had a great time and it was perfect weather.

Cayden's 3rd Birthday

Cayden turned 3 years old yesterday. I can't believe how time flies. Cayden is a busy little boy and loves to get into things and loves to get dirty. He has so much energy I can't keep up with him most of the time. He loves to wrestle with his brother and dad and one of his favorite things is to feed the horses with grandpa Julander. He has a fascination with tractors and trailers. Every truck needs to have a trailor. He loves to go to work with his mom and eat chocolate. He is a very special boy and we are glad he is a part of our family.


Cayden could not leave the tractor on the cake alone. He kept pushing it more and more into the cake. I told him he couldn't have the tractor until everyone got here for the party and sang Happy Birthday to him. He immediately started singing "Happy Brithday to me" and then went to go grab the tractor. He is so funny.

I finally did give in and let him take the tractor off. As you can tell in the picture the tractor is in his hands and not on his cake when we sang Happy Birthday.

We gave Cayden a wagon for his birthday. I have always wanted to buy one for our kids but they have always wanted other things for their birthdays. I knew Cayden would like it because he could hook it onto his Jeep and use it as a trailor.

We have such great support from our families. It makes me feel very blessed to have everyone close by. We had a house full of family to help us celebrate Cayden's Birthday. Thanks to everyone that came and for the gifts.

Jason's Team Won the Go Kart Race

Team 1280 The Zone Champs

The Ass-ociated Press
Tooele—In what is being called one of the biggest upsets in racing if not sports history, Team 1280 The Zone led by leader and race anchor Kevin Graham overcame adversity to rally to win the Miller Motorsports Park Media Endurance Go Kart Championship Saturday.
“It’s just what this country needs right now,” Graham said. “A team they can rally behind. A team in these tough trying times came together to show what can happen when you persevere, work hard and stay focused. The American Dream is still alive and well.”
The adversity began when John “I drive worse than a 88 year old woman” Lund drove the team from their 3rd qualifying position to dead last after several spin outs and just overall slow driving. “I did have some issues out there,” said Lund. “I guess I shouldn’t have gone out drinking the night before.”
P1’s Jason, Derrek and Randall each then drove methodically and strategically to get Team 1280 back into the race. By the time it got to Graham’s turn at the wheel, the team had gone from last, four laps down, to third just a lap off the pace. “I couldn’t have been more proud of the P1’s for putting us back in the race and cleaning up after John’s mess,” said Graham. “I guess that is no different in what they do for him every morning via text and calls.”
That’s when Graham took over. Showing a display of courage and determination that may never ever be seen in racing again, Graham quickly got the lap back and then proceeded to pass the field again to take the checkered flag but didn’t realize the flag was for him. “I was pulling up to the side of the X96 car when the beautiful Kelly Kaye waived the flag but I thought it was for them, not me,” said Graham. “Figures. We win the race and I didn’t even know it until I pulled into pit lane. Then we partied like it was 1999!” Team Comcast finished second 37.137 seconds off the pace. X96 was third a lap behind.
As for the future for Team 1280 The Zone, they will defend their title in two weeks without Graham who will be on his midlife crisis Harley trip but he feels confident the team will do well. “Our sales manager Kurt Thomas will take my spot and while he’s no Kevin Graham (HONK) we will be fine as long as we find someone to replace John.” Meanwhile after this stunning victory a book is in the works and Disney has contacted Graham about making this feel good story into a movie. “Just living the dream,” says Graham, “And making it rain!”

Jason is so proud of his trophy he won. I wish I could have went and watched him. I didn't have anyone to watch the kids.
