July 29th - Happy Birthday Brookie

Brookie turned 12 this year. WOW I can't believe my baby is 12. She's in middle school now and I get to have her in my Young Womens beehive class. I'm so excited to have her in YW, But not as excited as her, Every week she wants to go to yw with me and all of her friends, usually I say No, but occasionally I'd let her, now she gets to go every week Yea!!!

She had a family party with Grandparents and cousins.



She had a slumber party a few days later,  They had water fights, painted their nails watched a movie and ate treats. We set a tent up in the back yard and 8 girls slept out there. They were very loud and giggly until about 3:00 am and then they finally fell asleep.



We Love our little Brookie and we are so grateful to have her in our family!!

JUNE 2010

Bradley sent pictures from the MTC.
Bradley and his companion Elder Hooke from Ventura California
Having fun!
Shining his shoes. I like looking at his desk and things hanging on his wall. Alot of that stuff is the same stuff he had by his desk here at home

Softball

Brookelyn played softball this spring. It was fun watching her, she's getting pretty good. She had a great team this year, they took 4th place. She had her friend Shanley on her team which made it even funner!

Baseball

Brandon played Baseball this spring, he did really good this year. He had a great team, they took 3rd place, they played Riverton teams and teams from Herriman. He got chosen for All-stars but he didn't try out because he wanted to go to Scout camp and Youth Conference.

Roof

Brad is roofing the house. It desperatly needs it! So he's gotten the garage roof all done and the back part of the house is done, He's decided to build a great big porch on the front of the house so he can't do the front roof until he gets the porch built. I'm way excited for a big front porch.

Update






Well I haven't put anything on my blog since Thanksgiving. Alot has happened since then. We had a nice Christmas in Dec., Bradley turned 19 on January 10th then got his mission call on February 3rd then he went throught the temple on March 6th, Brad had a birthday in March, Brad and I celebrated our 20 year anniversary in April, Brandon turned 14 and became a teacher in the priesthood on May 15th. Bradley's Farwell was on May 16th. I turned 40 on May 23rd and Bradley left to the MTC on May 26th. We have spent alot of time preparing for Bradley's mission and spending time together as a family. Bradley's last day of work was on April 16th so I got to spend alot of time with him at home alone. (I think that's why it has been so hard for me since he left, I'm home alone all day and I'm used to having him there with me)
Well I'll try to do better about keeping my blog up to date. You can see how Bradley is doing by visiting his mission blog at http://Elderludlow.blogspot.com

Brandon's 1st deer











We went deer hunting at Bear Lake this past weekend. Brad and all 3 boys have deer tags. Brandon shot his first deer! How exciting, he took 3 shots and finally on the third shot he hit it.
We now have an elk and a deer to fill up our freezer. We'll see if Brad, Bradley or Brian get one this year, This will be Bradley's last hunt for 2 years so I'd like to see him get one, or at least go out hunting a couple of more times before the hunt is over. So over the last 3 years all 3 of my boys have gotten their 1st deer. We are so proud of them.
