Tim McGraw Concert...

Brittney talked me into staying a few extra days so we could go see Tim McGraw together (Eric of course was supportive and wanted me stay)...Brittney and I are concert buddies! or junkies...whatever you want to call it. This was our first time being in the PIT...it was so much fun. A little squishy but luckily it was outdoors so fresh air helped. Seeing Tim that close was totally worth it! Opening acts were great. Tim was of course Great! A fun night with my concert buddy! I love that Brittney and I are such good friends...been friends for 24 years. We were already planning our next concert...

Dino Museum

Since Cooper really likes dinosaurs (his favorite show right now is Dinosaur Train), I wanted to take him to the Dino Museum at Thanksgiving Point. Brittney and her boys, Hayden and Dylan came with us. We had a great time. It was busy with the two little guys but we managed and survived. Thankfully it wasn't busy. (Brooklyn went to St. George with Grandma)

Oops...a little too much of a lean...hehe

A beautiful day for a hike...

Since most of the Redford's were still in town for the Baptism weekend, we took advantage of the time together and went for a little hike in American Fork that led to a beautiful waterfall. It was an easy hike. Not too long. Perfect hike to do with kids. We had a great time!

Cooper found his hiking buddy fast...he wouldn't walk without holding Aunt Dakota's hand.

It was a fun day. We all really enjoyed it. (Ryder missed out...he stayed with Grandma...he would have been a little too much for mommy with Cooper)

My Kiddos...photo shoot!

My BEAUTIFUL and GOOD LOOKIN Kiddos! CameraShy does such a great job...I will be getting our photos taken there every time we visit Utah. They turned out so cute. I am very picky when it comes to photography...and I was so impressed and happy with CameraShy.

It's Great to be 8...Easton got baptized!

Easton waited two months to get baptized, so he could get baptized in Utah with his cousin Charlie and have all our family there to support him. He was excited. It was really nice and special for him. And he was baptized on Eric's birthday. Extra Special day!

Our Story!

Eric and I met at Costco in 2000. We dated for 7 months and then got engaged on April Fools. (That is one interesting story). We were married in the Manti Temple on July 12, 2001. (Yes that made me only 19...Yikes) My wedding day was truely the happiest day of my life. I remember being so happy and feeling so beautiful!

Then my next joy came with the birth of my children, Brooklyn, Easton, Cooper & Ryder. They are the most determined, outgoing, loud, happy, joyous, loving, & stubborn kids I have ever met...but we love them. Now if only we could get them to listen and obey us all the time. That would make my life so much easier. I know now how my mom felt when we didn't listen.

Brooklyn is in 5th grade. She loves to play with her friends. She loves to ride her bike, play soccer and listen/sing to music! Easton is in 3rd grade. He is also doing soccer. He is going to be a great athlete. He loves to play his DS and play games. Cooper is such a boy. He keeps me busy all day long. He loves his daddy more than anyone. He is his daddy's side kick. Ryder is a great baby. He is very busy. Loves to climb onto the table and chairs. He fits right in! He completes our family!

Eric works for a company called Reynolds Systems and loves it. It has been such a blessing. It is a fabulous, Stable Job! And he loves what he does...it brings many challenges and learning experiences. He has learned so much. I am proud of what he has accomplished since college.

I stay at home...mostly. I do misc jobs for Eric's work, including cleaning and computer work. I then clean a business office at night two times a week. Between all this and our church callings...we are one busy family! We try to have fun when possible. We love to go boating and spending time on the lake! The kids have recently learned how to wakeboard...I wish I had been that brave when I was young.

We bought a great home in Nov 08. It was a foreclosure and a great one I might add. We feel so blessed and lucky to be in our home. It has LOTS of space for us. And a big yard that takes up a lot of time...but we enjoy it.

Our life is busy, hectic and sometimes fun! We are proud to be the Redford Family!!!!
