Owen's 5th Birthday

While Ryan's away the kids get to play. . .





Uh oh! I just noticed that I'm the world's worst aunt. I don't have a good picture of the birthday boy. :(
FYI: Most people don't wear helmets while driving the racecars. Let's just say Slone is very "special."

30th B-day

Melissa was in town from TN and it was time for me to celebrate the big 3-0, so my wonderful friend, Beth organized an awesome party.







I have to admit we've been known to throw a few parties where people have such a good time that they throw up. . . unfortunately, these guests were welcomed by our sick three year old. I'm SO sorry guys! We truly had no idea she was sick until guests started arriving.

Spring Break 2010

Here are a few random pics from Spring Break. We hung out at home a lot, just relaxing. Maiki LOVED playing at Boondocks w/Mikade and BrookLynn, and she also loved hanging out with the mannequins at Old Navy.


Jemma-Sorry you were scolded for allowing "your" daughter
to climb on the display.

Yep, it snowed nearly half a foot in APRIL!

Easter 2010

Easter this year was really fun. We went to Uintah's egg hunt and had one of our own. I think we need to have another child because Maiki got bored in the middle of her egg hunt. . . she needs some competition.



The many faces of Maiki. . .
We got a trampoline!

Special Olympics

Last Saturday was a very interesting day. It all started when my friend Scott persuaded me to help him ski the Special Olympics torch down Quick Draw (which was on the news). After that we ended up setting up an awesome race course.
While setting up the course I had to ski while holding a huge drill. (We used the foot long drill to put the gates in the snow.) While talking to the person running the race I had a wonderful conversation with one of the racers participating in the Special Olympics.

Racer: I like a woman with a drill.
Me: That's nice.
Racer: I'll see you at the bottom. . .
Me: Oh.
(I start to ski off.)
Racer: Drill ya later!

Skiing on March 20th

Skiing with Maiki has been a blast! She is finally making a pizza w/the assistance of an edgy wedgy). She's funny because she switches back and forth from wanting to ride in the backpack (which is getting WAY too small) and wanting to ski all by herself.

This picture is one of my favorites!
Shortly after this picture Maiki fell asleep on the chair lift!

Dance Class

Maiki has been begging for dance classes for months, so my mom and I checked them out and finally decided to go with RHYTHM WORKS!
If you are thinking of signing up a little one in dance class let me know; I have a spreadsheet comparing and contrasting half a dozen of them, in northern Davis County.

Here are a few cute pics of Maiki and her dance friends:





My librarian made Maiki an adorable pink tutu. Thanks Bea!

The cost for dance classes, outfits, shoes, and the dance recital added up quickly, and Maiki really wants to look cute (she's quite the girly girl), so I found an awesome (really easy) tutu pattern online. I'm not very good at sewing so Grandma Sherrie came to the rescue! If anyone wants to get together to make $10 tutus (instead of buying them for over $50) let me know. :)
