4th of July

The kids and I spent a few days in Delta around the 4th of July. We had a great time. Ryan came down a few days later. We did some great fireworks that our friend pick up for us in Wyoming. We went to the parade, park and finished the day with the Derby and fireworks at Grandma Lois' house. On Sunday we had the Annual Beckstrom Boat Race. T-Bone, Will, and Luke.

Beckstrom Reunion

A couple of weeks ago it was my parents turn to be in charge of the Beckstrom Reunion so we had it down in Delta at the res. Us, my parents, and Van jr all took our boats out. We had a great time tubing, wakeboarding, and playing in the sand on the beach.




We even ran into Ashton.





Cute Grandma Helen :0)

They're BAAACK!!!

Every year we look forward to seeing little baby quail. :0)

Happy Birthday!

Last week was Grandpa Mikes birthday we were able to go down and see him for a little while on Sunday when we were picking up the kids.

Zoo

We went to the zoo with our friends the Andersen's the other day and had a blast.

Newport Beach Getaway

Last week Ryan and I took a little trip without kids!!! We had so much fun. We spent a couple of days hanging out at the beach. We went to Newport Beach, Corona Del Mar, and Huntington Beach it was so nice just hanging out and doing nothing.
We also spent a day driving up the coast to LA. We drove through a place called Palos Verdes it is so gorgeous there. When we got to LA we met up with my brother David and went down to Hollywood and Highland to the Virgin Record store,and then he took us to Korea Town. Ryan went to Korea on his mission so he loved Korea Town. We could not believe how big Korea Town is it is huge. It is way bigger than China Town. There are 2 or 3 big malls, tons of markets, there are even a few skyscraper. We had yummy Korean food it was great. We were even parked right by a gang shooting. We also went to downtown LA, and went to China Town.
Our last night there we went to an Angels Baseball game. Ryan was acting like a little kid in a candy store that night he was so excited for the game. It was such a fun game the Angels did awesome, and we had great seats.
We also ate, ate, and ate some more on our trip. We hit our favorite little Mexican Restaurant twice while we were there. And of course we had to make a couple of trips to Jack's Surfshop.
We were able to do this thanks to my parents. They take our kids camping every summer, it is our kids Christmas present from them.

School's Out For Summer!!!

Yay, Today was Sam's last day of school.

Why did the french fry go to French?

Here is Jacks joke
"Why did the french fry go to French?"
"Why?"
"So he could French"

This morning he told me that when he goes camping with grandpa and grandma he is going to go four-wheelering. So cute.

Yesterday Jack was outside playing with out shoes on and so I went out to tell him he better get shoes on or take his socks off and this is what I found. Do you think he needs new socks???


This one looks like those gloves that the finger tips can fold back.

Jack finished preschool last week, I can not believe he will be in Kindergarten next year.

Major BEDHEAD!!!!

Will woke up twice this weekend with major BEDHEAD. I just love this cute little boy.

Take Me Out To The Ball Game!!!

Lately we have been going to alot of baseball games. We have games 4 to 5 days a week. It is so much fun watching Sam and Jack play. Sam is doing player pitch and is getting better every game it's an ajustment from machine pitch. Jack does machine pitch and loves the snack shack, he likes playing too, but he really likes the snack shack, and I just love their cute uniforms. Oh and Jack is our cute little lefty.

Mother's Day

I had a really good Mother's Day on Sunday. Will gave me a great gift he woke my up bright and early at 6:30. He never wakes up that early he always sleeps at least until 7:30. I think he couldn't wait to tell my Happy Mothers Day. Ryan did let me stay in bed so they could do Jack's secret and bring me breakfast in bed.

We went to Sacrament Meeting then headed down to DelDa. My kids had 6 grandma's in Delta that day. My two grandma's were down at my parents for the weekend, and of course Ryans grandmas already live there. So we saw Grandma Margie, Grandma Helen, and Grandma June first. Then we went over and visited Grandma Nielson, and last we were able to see Grandma Tina and Grandma Lois. We had a really good day. We didn't leave for home until 9, so we had a late night but it was worth it we had wonderful Mothers and Grandmothers to visit.

The other night Jack was in brushing his teeth and he was singing a song and Ryan walked in.

Jack: Dad what is a oneanizer?
Ryan: I don't know.
Jack Singing as he walks out the room: Oneanizer, twoanizer, threeanizer.

He was singing the Brittney Spears song Womanizer.
