The Girl's Birthday

Today our babies turn 5 years old they are growing up so fast! We were hoping to have a nice day with them but the weather is nuking outside. There is 6 inches on the ground so far and it's still snowing. (I thought it was spring?) We are gearing up for a White rim trip this weekend and we are all praying to the weather gods to keep the sun shining and the rain away. I have found some fun pictures of the babies over the years so everyone can see how damn cute they are.

Eric decorated the house for the girls birthday (this was their 2nd Birthday)

Madison totally embarrassed that she has to wear a birthday hat.

Grace is utterly mortified.

Eric actually baked a cake and decorated it himself.

Posing for their Christmas photo

Just chillin' on our couches!

Just enjoying sailing with Uncle Kovach on Pineview

I guess I get a little sea sick.

St Patrick's Day 2009

I would just like to wish everyone a Happy St. Patrick's Day. Go have cornbeef and cabbage and drinks plenty of green beer. I hope everyone the LUCK OF THE IRISH TODAY!!
I thought I would add a couple of pictures from our trip to Ireland in 2007


This is Blarney castle where you can kiss the Blarney stone.


Eric kissing the Blarney stone (yuck)

One cannot go to Ireland without taking the tour of the Guinness brewery!!


Eric and his dreams of becoming a great brewer.

February 2009

I don't know where the time goes but I didn't add an entry for the month of February so I am just adding it onto this post. What a great month we had such great weather and took the dogs cross country skiing every chance we had.

Eric, Grace, Madison and I cross country skiing up at Snowbasin.



The girls and I cross country skiing at the golf course.

Look at the hot chick!
