I better explain myself...

So I thought I had better explain the reason why I have the "Edward" thing on the side of my blog. It is more of a joke than anything. Although, I do have to say that I am ADDICTED to those books. I haven't stayed up until 2:00 in the morning finishing a book since before Peyton was born. If you haven't read any of the Twilight series yet I highly recommend it. Anyway....here is the story behind the "my neck belongs to Edward" thing. So my mom got me hooked on these darn books. She read the first book before I did and could not put them down. My dad kept bugging her and making fun of her for getting so obsessed with a book about vampires. I think he was secretly jealous that she was spending so much time reading on not giving enough attention to him...funny guy. Well, when I got home I told Ryan all about how funny it was that my mom was in love with these books and the vampire character. It was funny until I started to get obsessed with them as well. Ryan was going crazy with all of my book reading. Any spare minute I had (which wasn't many) I had my nose in it. So one day Ryan was listening to the radio and a man called in complaining about his girl friend being so obsessed about this fictional character that it was affecting their relationship. The poor guy was going on and on about he couldn't compete with the vampire. Ryan knew then that this was the same book I had been reading. He has been bugging me about this ever since. I am not obsessed, but it has been a while since I have not been able to put a book down like this. Good thing I am on the fourth book. So to make Ryan worry even more I thought it would be funny to put the little saying on the side of my blog. I thought it was funny.

School Days!!

Peyton had his 1st day of 3rd Grade today. He is such a good student, and he seems to have a great teacher and class this year. We are so proud of him. Jack thought it was his 1st day of school as well. I had to drag him out of Peyton's class in tears because he wanted to stay. He wants to be big like his brother. We are going to have to figure out something for him to do during the day so he doesn't get bored.


Oh Baby...


Our little D.J. or as we often times refer to him as "Easy Deazy" or "D.G. Dog" or "Budaboo" or just plain "D". He gets called so many different names. We just love our new baby brother. He is getting so big and smart. He loves to coo and ah-goo and smile at everyone. He is such a good, happy baby.

More Family Fun!!

We went to community night at the river. The kids had so much fun getting their faces painted, riding the trolley, and getting fireman hats.



















Uncle Weston was playing D.J. music on his phone. D.J. loved it.



D.J. sportin his sun glasses




My new haircut. Thanks Wendy!! I haven't had it this short for a very very long time. I love it!!

Kade's blessing day

My nephew Kade was blessed on Sunday. Why I don't have a picture of him in his blessing clothes is beyond me. I guess I missed that one. But here are a few of him on "His" day. My brother Brian "buddy" blessed him. He did such a great job, and I am so proud of him. He is such a great husband and dad. I loved being able to be there since I missed out on Taylors. I sure love those guys.



After the blessing Buddy made us take these cheesy family pictures in front of his Bundy playhouse. We look goofy!!

Bunderson Reunion 2008

Thanks to my good friend Andra, we had the opportunity to travel back up to Idaho and attend the Bunderson family reunion. Andra had a family reunion in Mink Creek which is right before Bear Lake so we all drove down together. She has a 4 month old and a 2 year old, and I had all three of my boys. So you can imagine how interesting the ride was. The ride there wasn't too bad, but on the ride home we had one stop where there were 5 poopy diapers to change. That was fun. We also had to stop because of a horrible rain storm. It took us nearly 12 hours to make it back to St. George.

The reunion was a blast. Aunt Judy was in charge this year. We had the usual dinner on Friday with games and than boating on Saturday. It was so nice seeing everyone.












Aunt Jude getting ready for the BIG race against her sibling. Grandpa Danny won by a nose!!


Uncle Tanner was able to join us. The boys loved that.
My cousin Tracie's little girl Maycen. Isn't she cute..I think her and Jack look like siblings.




Jen lookin GREAT in her Modbe swimming suit. Holding little Kade....much smaller than D.J.
Aunt Wendy
My cousin Martie. She and her family live in Texas so we rarely get to see them. She held D.J. for most of the dinner on Friday. She must have liked the little...I mean BIG guy.
Oh...how sweet. These two are such great friends now. They love each other.

Kimmie and D.J. , Kimmie is my cousin Jason's oldest girl....so I guess that would make her my second cousin. I guess we get along because we have the same name. No, she is so cute and nice. She invited Tanner to the reunion.
