Heber Creeper

Last Wednesday my work chartered the Heber Valley Railroad. They were using it for a leadership conference for our consultants, however, there was 2 extra cars so they invited the employees and their family.
Curtis and I have been wanting to take Max but we have never agreed with the pricing. We could not turn down free so I signed us up to go. (you should take a second look at this lamp. It has trains along the top tear, tracks, Heber then RXR along the bottom)
Curtis took off work early, we picked up my mom and dad then headed to Heber.
We arrived about an hour and a half before the departure time but we had packed a pick-nick and wanted some time to take pictures of the trains.
Max loved the first half of the ride. He left sticky hand prints on the windows and bounced from one seat to another.

Yep, that's my dad. We had a shoot off. The man in the vest is Jon. I'm sure he had no idea what danger he was in.

After the first half of the ride, Max was ready to enjoy the outside car. This is where most employee family's ended up. The ride was beautiful. Thanks Heritage Makers.

Gift for you 2

Last year, my friend Monica posted that she would make a gift for the first 5 people who commented on her blog and posted that they would do the same on their blogs. I had a lot of fun making things for friends and family. Here is the post from last year:

My friend posted this on her blog and I couldn't resist so here it is:
The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you.
This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
2. What I create will be just for you.
3. It'll be done this year. (I'll try to get it done soon)
4. You have no clue what it's going to be.
5. I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.
The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must re-post this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog. The first 5 people to do so, and leave a comment telling me they did, win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me! *Oh, and be sure to post a picture of what you win when you get it!*

So here we go with year 2. There is one gift I still have from last year. Julie, I promise to get it to you as soon as I figure out how to ship it.

Sprinkler


Today we played in the yard. I love spring!

Jack Jay Finch

Welcome new baby Jack! We are so excited to finally have you here. Congratulations Jared, Julie, Alivia, Rex and Lucy. We already love this little guy. Each of the Finch kids have a personality all their own and I can't imagine life without any of them. I am sure this little one is another priceless addition.

Shoe?

I made cards for Max to give his Grandma's for mother's day. I was a little surprised when I opened the card and found a spelling error. Sorry Grandma's, I guess you have some amazing shoes. I don't think I can get them reprinted on time. Now the dilemma, do we throw away the cards or do we give them out anyway?
