Down Time

What have Robb and I been doing these last two weeks?  Well, spending time with the grandkids, of course!! Its our favorite thing to do when we have some down time.
 An evening at the temple.
Bentley just loves Bobby and Grandpa.  Those were two of his first two words.
I just love, love, love this picture.
This little angel loves her grandma.  Look at that smile.  Doesnt it melt your heart?
She will stay with grandpa for about 2 minutes.  A little longer on this occasion because she couldnt see who was actually holding her.
We also went to the Washington Community Center.  What a fantastic place.

Lazy river with Bs two favorite people.
And, whats better than Red Lobster after swimming a few hours?
Look at that rightey.  When he was first starting to use his hands, I thought I might finally get a lefty in the family, but no luck.
Robb and I love being grandparents.  We are so thankful that Hope lives so close and that she is considerate enough to share her babies once in a while.  I cant imagine not having these two monkeys around to hug and kiss on whenever we want.

Confirmation

I want to address the people who, I know, truly concerned at the time, wondered why I stayed with Robb.  
Well, this is the reason.  I could see the man that he could become.  I knew it with every fiber of my being.
We went through our struggles, that is a fact.  But, we made it through and it has brought us closer together and even made our relationship stronger.
My husband has integrity.  He is honest.  He is responsible and he is kind.
This is a picture of Robb after confirming our neighbor Saturday.  He is their home teacher.  
They, too, can see the remarkable man that he is.
What a privilege it was to sit and watch Robb confirm this special young boy.
Thank you for being the amazing man that I knew you could be.
I am so thankful that I stuck it out and I am proud to be your eternal wife.

2012 Pulvers Amazing Race

 Its that time of year again when we have our annual Amazing Race and every year I remember why I only do it once a year.  
Here are the participants this year.
These were the stops/tasks this year:
South Africa: Splash park - Use your bandanas to fill up water bottles.
Venice: River - Cross the river to find team colored flags.
Roadblock: Friends house - Swallow two raw eggs.  (I do have video of this)
Native America: Take a picture of Kokopelli with your whole group.
Antarctica: Bunkerville Park - Get 6 team colored rocks from a cooler of ice water.
Australia: Church Pavillion - complete a crossword about Australia.
Detour: High School Football Field - Kick two field goals or throw 5 passes through a rung in a ladder.
Stonehenge: Hospital - Find team colors under rocks.
Most memorable moments of this year:
1) Venice task was held right next to a homeless mans shelter. 
2) Robbs team could not figure out how the other teams were knowing where to go from the clues.  They almost quit.  They just werent looking ON THE FRONT OF THE ENVELOPES.
Notes to next years contestants:
1) Dont ride in the same vehicle as Robb or you might have a fear of white vans for the rest of your life.
2) Dont ever play against the Chief of Police, or you might get pulled over by one of his minions in order for him to win.  Sorry, Shannon.
Overall, it was fun. 
 I want to thank Heather Everitt for all her help.
See ya again next year!
