Bailey...You Gotta Love Her!

Ever since Sawyer got Reeses a year ago, Bailey has wanted to dress her. There is no way Sawyer would let her put clothes on his dog. Now that she has a puppy of her own, there is no stopping her! Oreo is often seen wearing Bailey's old Pajamas around the house. I made the mistake of telling her that I used to put underwear on my cats, and push them around the yard in the wheel barrow. The next thing I know, she has a pair of underwear, and is cutting a tail hole in them. Oreo is such a good sport, and proudly wore her underwear around the kitchen. I was following her around with the camera trying to get a good picture. We didn't notice anything out of the ordinary until I uploaded the pictures onto the computer. I don't know how we missed it, but with one look at the pictures, we realized that Oreo had peed her underwear! Me and Sawyer were laughing so hard! That was my comic relief for the day! Bailey didn't think it was as funny. She had to throw the underwear away, and I won't keep letting her use all of her good underwear on the dog. I guess I'll have to buy Oreo a pack of her own, because Heaven forbid she should have to be 'naked'!


Notice the pee!

Party Like a TRACK Star!

Sawyer had his first track meet of the year against Rigby. Rocky Mountain did awesome! The boys and the girls won. Sawyer did an amazing job. He won all 4 of his races. I LOVE watching his track meets. I get excited the whole day of the meet. I don't care if it's hot, cold, raining, snowing, or windy, I'll be sitting in the stands. I love track, and I'm SO glad Sawyer does too :)! We filmed his races. Enjoy!

This is the 4X200 meter relay. His team was a little nervous about their hand offs, but they did great! Sawyer is the 3rd runner.

This is the 100 meters. Sawyer's time was 12.03.

This is the 4X100 meter relay. Sawyer was the anchor in this one.

His last race was the 200 meters. He shocked everyone in this race, especially his coaches. It was SO close, but Sawyer just turned it on at the end, and passed everyone. He did a great job, and we are so proud of him.

Happy Easter!

We had a great Easter. The sun was shining, so for the first time in quite a while, our egg hunt was outside. I got up at 6:45 to take the puppy out to the bathroom. I forgot about the eggs, so I spent the first part of my morning chasing Reeses around the backyard trying to get the eggs from her. It was pretty funny :)! The kids woke up and looked through their baskets. Bailey got a bucket of beads that you make designs with. After the designs are made you iron them, and they melt together. She loves them, and spent most of her day doing that. She also got the cutest apron. It's black and white with hot pink trim, and says 'Domestic Diva' on the front. It's perfect for her, and she looks so cute in it. Sawyer got the newest Fablehaven book, and a Brian Regan DVD in his basket. He was really excited. Then it was off to hunt eggs. This is when Bailey's competitive side comes out. She has to be the first to find all of hers, but then she gets mad when Sawyer won't let her help him find the rest of his. Church was great. I taught the Young Women the Easter lesson. It was nice for me to get to reflect on the real reason we celebrate Easter, and to share that with them.











Happy Easter to everyone!
