Muttin' Bustin' Time!

So last weekend was the Clark County Fair....our little cousin, Keegan was competing in the Muttin' Bustin' there. We went down to watch him tear it up in the arena! We had lots of fun hanging out with cousins, not enjoying the WIND, and watching Keegan do so well. Way to go Kegger....

Keegan waitin' to ride :)....(I think he learned that pose from his dad?!)
So apparently before Keegan's ride, Cody told him that the only way he was going to win was if he rode one handed...this is what happened...Keegan rides with one hand and whips out his little American flag with the other hand and waved it while he rode...sadly, he fell off right before the buzzer....or else he would have so taken a buckle home! It was an awesome ride though. He'll get it next time!

I luv my Frenz!

Last weekend one of best friends, Allison and her husband were traveling through STG and stopped to have dinner.....we went out to eat the four of us but only got one photo! Good to see you Allison - luv ya!

Sara is in town!

So Kyle's sister, Sara, was recently in town for about a week. We got to spend some time with her since we don't get to really see them that often because they live in AZ. Sara is expecting TWINS here in a couple of months so she came to visit and we had a baby shower for her while she was here too.... Here are some pics while she was here.


One evening us girls went and got pedicures - it was lovely!
Sara and I at her shower. I made her "this" diaper cake....I must say I was pretty impressed that I was able to do it. I am not so crafty....luckily I had one of my "crafty" friends, Lindsi help me out! (Thanx Linds) But I thought it turned out so cute! It was actually pretty fun to put together. I am so excited for you Sara - can't wait for the girls to be here!


Here is some of the decor at the baby shower...cute clothes for the babies on the clothes line!

CHEESE!!

FIJI TIME!!

So this March my parents took our family to FIJI for vacation again. However, we got to go to a different place....we stayed at the beautiful Matangi Island Resort! It was absolutely amazing! Even though getting there takes so long, once we are there - of course it is so WORTH IT!! I just love FIJI and everything about it! (So here are only a handful of the pictures we took.)

So diving is a great bonus while we are in FIJI! It has some of the best scuba diving in the world! I am so glad that is something that we all like to do together...it's one of my most favorite things to do! So here are some of the pictures we took while diving (only a couple since we took SO many!).
Kyle, Elia - our divemaster, and myself. He was a lot of fun. Like I said all the Fijian people we have ever met are so incredibly happy. We are so blessed to have all we have and it is a very humbling experience to know how others live. I am very grateful to be able to experience both these worlds.

Dive at the "Purple Wall" which was my favorite dive site the whole trip! The purple coral was amazing! We saw so many different things on that dive - not to mention a ton of reef sharks!
Ok so this is my Dad, Moses, and myself. Moses was our divemaster first 4 years ago when we stayed at Wananavu. We went there 2 years in a row so we got to know him really well. Not to mention, he idolized my Dad. It is so funny -- he calls my Dad "Mo Mo Marika" which in Fijian means, Uncle Mark. My Dad loved it! So ironically, this year he lived on the neighboring island to us on Quemea. So we gave him a call after finding out he lived there and he came over and dove with us one day. It was fun to see him and reconnect.

Kyle and I hike up Beverly Hills to go to the Horseshoe Bay lookout. It was so amazing! The water is so clear that we could see lots of fish and we saw 3 different sea turtles surface while p there watching. One of the staff members Marika took us up there.

Mom & Dad - Sure love you guys! xoxo

This was right out in front of four bure, we loved the hammock!

These were some of the girls on staff! They are such great people. I have never met such happy, humble, and friendly people in all of my life. Fijian people are really increrdible!
