My Baby Girl is All Grown Up!


They always tell you that your kids grow up fast, but I never thought it would really happen until now. I can't believe my sweet baby Bre is going to be a senior this year. Who knew I could have such a beautiful, smart daughter. I wish I could stop time. I love this age. I am so proud of her and what an amazing person she has become. Here are some pics we took while we were here in Las Vegas. We decided one afternoon to go up to Mount Charleston to take pictures. We found this awesome old abandoned house to take photos at. Of course the police showed up to tell us we were trespassing. What a surprise! We always have a story when we go do photos. Seriously...Bre never takes a bad picture.

A little Rock Band Anyone?


The night we got back from Utah our kids missed us so much they wanted to celebrate with a little rock band! Seriously....I'm not as good as my kids are, but I can hold my own. Of course I am concentrating do hard that I look retarded doing it! LOL

The kids showing off their Musial skills!



Wow, this house is going up fast!


Grant and I took a quick trip to Utah to check on the house. I can't believe it is all coming together. It's scary to see if all of the colors you pick will turn out. So far..it is gorgeous. They are laying tile , doing finish work, laying the wood floors, and painting this next week. When we are in town next week I expect an almost finished house. I can't wait! Here are a few pics.
Grant's parents came up to see the progress. They loved it!
Ok...This is funny...The outhouse outside of our house is called the Honey Bucket. My friends think this is hilarious since my maiden name is Honey. So we had to get a quick picture of it.

Blue Man Group!


Wow! So much fun! We went to the Blue Man Group show last night! We were in the front row in the poncho section. I'm sure you can guess why we wear ponchos. Paint was splattered on us as well as mashed bananas. It was better then I thought it would be. I think it was my favorite Las Vegas show so far. The kids loved it and and were so grateful for the chance to see them. It made for a late night, but it was worth it.

Here we are showing off our fashionable ponchos.


Here is some of the damage after the show. Austin got splattered on pretty good!


It ended with a large TP party which ended up all on us thanks to the Blue Man!

More splatterings spotted!

A Picture with one of the Blue Man! They scare me when they just stare. It is really creepy!


4th of July


We spent our 4Th of July in Las Vegas this year. It was a blast! We missed Breanna who was up in Layton, Utah selling fireworks for the week with our friends. The rest of us swam all day as usual playing diving games. We also planned a huge barbecue and right as we were about to start we all looked at each other and said" Let's go to Chilis". So off we went to Chilis where an amazing balloon artist made us some fun things. We also enjoyed fireworks right outside our door. In Vegas each neighborhood does their own big fireworks show. It is incredible to see. Our neighborhood did theirs and then we could see the neighborhood next to us. If you are driving down the freeway it looks like kayos with firework shows going off everywhere. Here are a few pics of the day!

Creech Air Force Base!


We were invited to go to lunch at Creech Air Force Base for family appreciation day! It was really cool to see this base out in no where with all these awesome planes like the Predator and the Reaper. Of course I couldn't take any pictures other wise they would have tackled me and broken my camera. But I did manage to take pictures of us enjoying lunch and I found some pictures of the predator on the Internet. The predator is the plane that Grant works with. It's really hard to hear in the news things going on in the war and I try to talk to Grant about them, but he can't say anything about it. I know he was involved in all of those missions they talk about but he won't let me know a thing. I guess that is what you get for having a husband with Top Secret Clearance.
We bought these cool shirts for the 4th of July!

Youth Conference


All 3 kids went to youth conference at the end of June. They had a blast at Camp Early! Its going to be hard for them to say goodbye to our ward when we move. Their favorite things were the shooting range and the volleyball.
