Box Canyon- Memorial Day May 30, 2016

We went to Box Canyon (Wickenberg) today and went riding.  The boys had fun riding their quads, driving the golf cart, and hanging out with their friends Nolan and Connor.  We're so fortunate to have the Halley's with us on our outings.  We love them! xo :)

Beautiful!

Building a dam and sailing boats!

Brody's driving...WATCH OUT! :)

They loved driving through the water and getting wet!

Nolan is in charge!  Woot woot!

Wyatt loved to whittle the sticks into spears.

Be careful with that knife...:)

Panning for gold!

Go Wyatt!

Time for a break...let's eat a snack. :)

Any gold?

Fun times!

The dam held up pretty good!

Watch out...Wyatt's turn to drive!

Oh yeah...time to kick back and relax!

Wyatt's First Communion & Confirmation May 28, 2016

Yesterday was Wyatt's First Communion and Confirmation sacraments.  He wanted my dad to be his sponsor and chose the name Bobby as his confirmation name in honor of my dad's brother Bobby.  The day was filled with love, prayers, and thankfulness.  After the mass, we headed to my house for a BBQ lunch.  We're so thankful for our family and friends that were able to attend.  Thank you for making Wyatt's big day so memorable!  God Bless You!

Here are my dad and Wyatt before mass started.  Notice the name tag on Wyatt's shirt...his confirmation name is Bobby.  My dad says that Wyatt reminds him of his little brother Bobby who passed away when I was little.  Bobby is now Wyatt's nickname.  We love you Uncle Bobby!  xo

Here's our group of family and friends that were able to attend.  Thank you for your love, prayers, and support for Wyatt. xo

Wyatt and Papa next to St. Thomas which is the name of our church (St. Thomas More). :)

We want to thank my dad for being Wyatt's sponsor.  He attended classes on weekends and all of last week in preparation of Wyatt's sacraments.  We love you dad!  Thank you for your love and support.  Wyatt thinks the world of you! :)

Congratulations Wyatt James Laubmeier! :)

Josette and Ethan's visit May 2016!!!!

We were so excited to hear that my cousin Josette and her son Ethan (from Ohio) would be returning to AZ for another visit!  Ethan wanted to come and visit with his family members, so Josette surprised Ethan with plane tickets to AZ for his birthday!  YAY!!!!  We had 3 full days filled with love, laughs, and making new memories.  Wyatt and Ethan were especially happy to see on another.  They both have a lot I common and are close in age.  We can't wait for their next visit!!!!

Aunt Patty's friend Dana hooked us up with some passes to the Pointe Squaw Peak River Ranch!

Josette surprised Theresa and I with these delicious Bloody Mary's! YUM!
