Good old Wally-mart had this little pool on sale for $10!! Ethan and Jackson have spent everday in it now. I love it becasue we are outside and the boys love to go “simmin” (Jackson)! It is amazing how they can be entertained for a couple of hours in the water!
Saturday we went up into the goold old Uintas to Pass Lake (Near Mirror Lake in Kamas). We met Grandpa Beckstead up there and had a wonderful day fishing. The temperature was great, we CAUGHT fish, and had a wonderful time. Of course I didn’t check the batteries in the camera before we left, and they ran dead only after a few pictures. But I have a few, non the less.
As part of Ethan’s birthday we wanted to take him to see Disney/Pixar’s UP. We Finally got around to it last weekend. My parents were kind enough to watch Jackson for us, so it was a date night for Ethan! He did a great job sitting the whole way through and eating his yummy popcorn:) It was so cute when several young kids(including Ethan) would ask questions about the movie. They were so curious, but didn’t quite grasp the aspect of a whisper.
UP was a darling, heart-warming, full of laughter, eyes watering up film! Highly recommended for all to see. It is one we will definately be adding to our collection!
I have recently began checking to see those who visit our website, where they come from and where they go (which post). It amazed me at how many people went to a post I did about a year ago about my kids and their cute smiles. I titled it “Future Crest Kids”. So I googled future crest kids and our website is the first of over 104, 000. Interesting. So i did a google image search, and again we are the first of over 230,00. There is no website futurecrestkids.com, which I thougth there would be.
So this is how I am going to make my millions (hey, it’s a nice thought). I just bought the domian name futurecrestkids.com. Crest will come to the realization that they need that name and they will pay me lots of money for it, or I will start collecting picture of kids and their toothiest grins:).
Happy Father’s Day to all!!
My dad- Michael Murphy. I love my dad so much. He is a very quiet man, but over the years I have learned a lot form him. He has worked hard all his life to support a family; to this day he continues to work very hard! That is one of the many values I have learned from him. I enjoy just talking to him about everything and anything. He LOVES his grandkids. He is constantly giving them “specail treats”.
Four years ago this month he had a heart attack. It was a scary moment for all in our family. If it wasn’t for all the medical advances we now have, he would have had to undergo a triple bypass!! The most important part is he made it threw and he is here with us today( a lot healthier, I might add). I am grateful for the many lessons he has taught me and the support he always gives to my family and I. Thank you Daddy, I Love YOU!
My father-in-law- Jack Beckstead. Jack is also very quiet and reserved. But he has some amazing stories of when he served in the Marines. We love to go fishing with him and he loves to be in the outdoors. I think the perfecr job for him would be one of those camp hosts at all the campsites you see. Ya, he would love it. We don’t get to see him as often as we would like but he knows we all love him and think of him every day!
My husband and father to our wonderful boys- Stoney. He loves Ethan and Jackson so much. He gets pure joy being with them and teaching them. Stoney is always showing them something new to do, or exploring, or paitently explaining all those “why” questions. And he is so good at it.
When I went back to work this fall, he took on a whole new role. And he has done a fabulous job. I love Stoney for the hard work he puts in at home, work, church and school. Thank you and I love you always and forever!!
I jump on to my blog, and I see this completely different layout. Woah!!!! Stoney must be really bored at work. You can tell it is a Stoney thing with the scary warrior dude at the top. I would like a few fireworks (Fourth of July theme):) But I will take the change. Thanks Stoney- it looks like it took a lot of time, good job.
