We all LOVE Grandpa's JUNK!


Well these two!!! What more can I say other than this town has never seen quite a pair like this. They found this behind Grandpa's shop and begged for it for quite a while. It was sorta falling apart and nothing worked on it. They got it home and within an hour or two of getting home from school they were traveling down the road. It is hilarious to watch them ride this around. it is a cross between a Mexican van with fringe and a redneck parade mobile! They love it and every kid (and adult) that show up just have to take it for a spin.

What a Week!


Well this past week has been fun. We will start with Carson...He went to his friends birthday party this past friday and did a flip on the trampoline. He went face first into a railroad tie. We ended up at the emergency room and he got 8 stitches. (10 if you ask Carson)
To look at him makes you just feel so bad. He missed school yesterday and went back today. He is still swollen but it is looking better. He gets his stitches out tomorrow.
Reagan did what he loves most this past week. He went with Lawrence to gather cows. He loves to spend any possible time that he can with Lawrence doing just about anything that Lawrence does. Reagan and Lawrence like to do things that a mom would not approve of and then just tell me enough to make me wonder what they have been up to!
Anthony.......Another fishing picture. Go Figure! He went on a fishing trip for 2 days with one of his young men leaders and some friends. He of course caught his share and then brought home all of the ones that no one else wanted to eat. He cooked them up 2 different nights and from what I have heard they are very good. (I am not that brave) He is a good little cook. I think if he could just eat sleep and live on the shore of a lake with a pole in the water he would be happy.

The Rarest Photos on EARTH! Kathleen's family get together June 08.

Well we have been married for 8 1/2 years and this is the 2nd time we have all been together. It was so much fun to see each other and get caught up. All of the kids are getting so big they grow up way to fast. It seems as if nothing has changed, all of the Men are still full of it!

Anthony is a FRESHMAN!


Anthony is in 9th grade! Yes this is his 1st day of school photo not halloween. To answer your 1st question....No he did not try to cut his head off! Don't ask me why I don't get it either. If he was not such a dang good kid we would be VERY concerned. LOL
Do you remember rolling up the bottom of your super tight peg legged pants?? I tried to show him how but he did not think it was very funny.

Carson 1st Day of 3rd Grade


Carson is now in 3rd grade. He asked me not to long ago after school started if the president makes it a law to go to school. He thinks if it is not a law that he really should not have to go. After all there are so many more things he can be doing!
The thing that makes it all better is that they serve lunch. His biggest complaint is that they just do not serve ENOUGH!

Reagan 1st Day of 5th Grade


Reagan is now a 5th grader!
He is getting much better about the "cowboy clothes" he will sometimes wear cowboy t-shirt with shorts. We have come a LONG way people you have no idea. How could a mom possibly think that it is okay to wear DC shoes with Wrangler's. He just thinks that I am completely off my rocker to make such a suggestion!

Can You say BLACK MAIL!

It is probably hard to get the entire vision of this photo. Anthony has his own style going on, just in case you have not already noticed. He loves his purple and black witch looking socks. I just had to take this picture of him mowing the lawn in his socks and reno 911 glasses. I know this will come in handy someday to use against him!

Carson is FINALLY old enough for (flag) FOOTBALL!



This is finally the year that Carson get's to actually play football. He has been so excited! We are not really sure which position he is playing or exactly what is going on, but he is part of the team and he LOVES it! We think the favorite part to all of the players is the mouth piece's that they do not take out for anything. The entire team proudly slobber's away while they are running around.

The best part about sports and being 8 is that it really is not about winning or losing as long as you have a cool jersey and a slobbery mouth piece.

Anthony Fishing in Panguitch



We spent Labor Day weekend with the Ray family camping at Panguitch Lake. Anthony loves to fish so the second he got the chance he was at the lake fishin' away.

Lawrence Is So Proud!

I have to share this story. Last night Carson had a friends birthday party and Lawrence took care of everything and got him to the party. When I got home I asked Lawrence how it went. He started telling me about how proud of Carson he was. When they were getting the present together for his friend, Carson said he wanted to make a card all by himself so Lawrence let him do it. When Carson got done Lawrence read the card. He could not believe how nice it was. When I got home that is the first thing Lawrence told me about and he said some of the things that were on it and how proud he was of Carson for being so sweet. The only thing was that he wished he would have made a copy of it to show me. We sat and talked about how great our kid is and it was a shame I did not get to see the card. While we were talking I noticed a pile of papers on the table. In the pile was a birthday card Carson got from Grandma and Grandpa in July. I opened it and started reading it. I asked Lawrence if this is what Carson's super sweet card to his friend said. He looked at it and we both started laughing. When we finally were able to talk again after laughing so much the first thing I said was "you should know better than that his last name is Lavery!" When Carson came in I said "I heard you made a nice card for your friend." He then replied "yeah I copied it out of my card because I could never spell all of that right by myself!"
We are still laughing about this!
Lesson to us...1st-never think a Lavery can come up with all of that nice stuff by himself.
2nd even if he did he would not share it with anyone.
3rd if the spelling is correct he cheated!
