The silver lining to the rollercoaster we've been on with my mom is that we've got to spend a lot of time with her. She's been coming a few days before her chemo treatments every 3-4 weeks, and we have some time to play before we go up to the Huntsman for her appointments.
A friend from her work was so thoughtful. She secretly wrapped up a ring that she knew my mom wanted and told her to open it when she needed a boost.
Wheeler Farm

Grandma Nina's grandkids adore her.
I love Emilee's shoes in this one!
This is what Sage does when you tell her to smile.
Playing at Silver Lake while Scott and Corbin hike with the dogs.
Mason's gecko shedded it's head!
Blowin' bubbles.
I love Mason's style! Especially the one long black sock and short shorts
(they're actually size 2 pajamas!)
Playing in American Fork canyon.
Las Vegas!

Swimming at Circus Circus.
Sage's best smile:)
I'm pretty sure they're part fish!
Sage told me today that she want's a "baby motorcycle."
The Secret Garden at the Mirage.
This dolphin kept swimming over and pulling on the lock that closed off the tunnel to the other dolphins. The whole time he was making squeaking and clicking noises.
Sage wanted up on the elephant too!
Corbin is showing Sage the fish in the aquarium at Ceaser's Palace.
The boys are wearing Scott's jerseys from baseball when he was a kid! 15 is his lucky number!
The gardens at the Flamingo. Sage keeps asking to go back and see the "flamingo-ingos."
Sage was scared of everything - the fountains, the volcano, the show at Ceasers, and the Pirate show at Treasure Island.
Riding the carousel in the Adventure Dome at Circus Circus. It has a pink roof, so everything has a pink glow inside.
Coming off the Tidal Wave.
Corbin went on all the scarey rides! He was a little nervous at first to ride this one.
Then he rode it several times!
The rainbow floor at the Mirage. The kids could have played here for hours!
Getting ready to watch the 3D movie at the M&M store.
The m&m nascar.
We splurged and went out to a really nice lobster and crab buffet.
On the way home we stopped at Zion National Park to swim with the frogs.
Mason was on a serious hunt for lizards.
We saw lots of them, but they were too fast!
Just past the tunnel there was a family of bighorn sheep.
Looking down on Crack Canyon. A little farther down was where Scott was search and rescued.
Grandpa Brent, Shaun, Sarah, Owen, Emilee, Boston, Sage, Corbin, Mason, and I went to Liberty Park to play in the water.
Boston, Corbin, and Mason were in the Rodeo Days Parade.
Corbin is pulling the float in the yellow hat, and Boston and Mason are sitting on the side. It was over a hundred degrees outside!
Scott and Ben took the boys to an enduro race. They ran the track and got all muddy!
One of the racers signed Mason's cheek with permanent marker!
Camping in Malad
July 2012
Sage and Jacey chillin' in their lawn chairs.
Jacey had to have a paper towel to wipe her hands off every time she picked up a handful of dirt:)
Posing for the camera.
We went on a fun little hike. Sage was so excited, she kept yelling, "Come on, guys!"
Steve paid Mason a quarter for every butterfly he caught. It got expensive pretty fast!
Getting muddy!
Above the waterfall there was a spring that we were playing in.
The water was icy cold - especially where the spring came outof the rocks.
Riley made it look easy!
Reeling it in!
Sage and I are both impressed:)
Teaching Sage the art of fishing.
Got one!
Riding the golf club.
Giving Sage a lesson on riding golf clubs.
Going for a ride.
Corbin's bike broke in half!
Stud, Hottie, and Hunk
Steve made some improvements.
Sage's loves her duck and her cousin!
Jacey was laughing so hard! She was throwing a wrapper on the floor and thought it was hilarious when Mike picked it up!
Waiting at the hospital to see his new cousin Cooper!
Boston couldn't wait to get a look at his new baby brother!
Emilee loves her baby brother.
Boston is proud of his t-ball trophy!
