New Hair Cuts . . .

For the dogs of course!!!!! Roofus! He is such a pretty boy! He pranced around the yard all afternoon!!!!
We had a hard time getting him to hold still for a picture! Blake and Mikki in the background!
JJ! Doesn't she look fancy!!!!! She looks like a different dog all shaved! She was so excited to be back in the yard and was super hungry! Yes, mom and dad, she STILL carries that dish around wherever she goes!!!!!



She is a pretty dog!!!! Gotta love her! We think she feels much better about herself! She pranced around the yard as well!!!!
Love to all!

Jr. Jazz

Mikki signed up to play Jr Jazz this year! She is catching on quick and is soo much fun to watch play! Notice how she is sucking her cheeks in? Her teachers have told me that she does this when she is thinking! Gotta love it!
Down the court!

Stop . . . Be ready for a pass!


Shoot the ball!!!
She didn't try to shoot it very many times, she is a little hesitant with that! But every time she practices she gets better! We are very proud of you Mikki!

Last Day in Sun Valley

Our last day in Sun Valley found me checking out of the lodge at 11 and Bo not being done with class until noon. So, after I checked out, I took my camera and decided I would see what I could find! After walking over by the Inn, I could hear something up on the mountain. After much searching, I found this groomer going up and down one section of the mountain!
He was amazing to watch! I don't think I would like his job very much!




It was a GREAT trip, with some amazing things to see!

Red Fish Lake . . . Or Not

On Friday, Bo got done with Class early so we decided to take a drive and head to Red Fish Lake. Unfortunately, once we arrived we found that there is still SO much snow that the road to the Lake wasn't even open. :( We were totally bummed, but I still got some GREAT pics of the snow covered peaks! Enjoy!






It sure makes me miss the Lake! I think we need to plan a trip and take the girls when there isn't as much snow on the ground!!! :)

Sun Valley

So, Bo had a medical conference this last weekend. So the two of us headed to Sun Valley without the girls! It was cold and there was still a ton of snow on the ground!
Views around the Lodge! It was so nice to go and relax! Bo went to class and I stayed in the room and read!!!!


The ski runs! Most were still open and the Lodge was full of Spring Skiers trying to get in their last runs before it really starts to melt!!!


Amazing!
Thanks for a GREAT trip Babe! Love ya!

Mikki's Mixed-up Rhymes

Mikki brought this Rhyme home today from school! It is especially for Grandpa Frank!

Old Grandpa Madsen
Old Grandpa Madsen went to work on cars to get oil from a girl.
When he got there the oil was bare so he went and had a pepsi!!!!
She had to fill in the blanks with her own words!!!! Gotta love our girl!!!!!

What the . . .

Okay, Mother Nature needs to figure things out here! It is spring not fall. I am all for the moisture, but can it come in the form of rain NOT snow!!!!!
This was our weather yesterday, I looked outside it was raining in a matter of seconds it turned to snow and covered the ground! The back yard :( Can you see the bat buried under the snow? Lizzy and Bo were just outside playing catch!!!!
Another view of the backyard.
Have a Happy week, I am praying for sunshine!!!!

Easter

Easter was a GREAT day! The girls were so excited to look through their baskets!
Each one of the girls got a new MP3 Player with a new pair of headphones,
a bracelet and lots and lots of candy!!!!
The Easter Bunny was very smart, Mikki has been wanting and MP3 player for so long!
So we decided that maybe the Easter bunny could take care of that for our trip to Missouri at the end of school! What a GREAT bunny! And so SMART!!!!
General Conference was great as well and so uplifting! The Prophet, his counselors and the other speakers knew just what to say to make it wonderful!
Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend!!!!
Love to all!!!!
