Braxton....



Braxton has quite the funny personality! He brought me his winter hat and told me he wanted it on his "eyes" which usually means his head! So I put it on him and he thought it was pretty cool!! He went and climbed on the coffee table and started watching his show! He also wanted to wear it to my dad's that night! He looked like he was dressed for the dead of winter and it was like 50 Degrees outside! But that's what made him happy so that's fine with me!!

Josh's 16th Birthday!


On March 15 Josh turned the big 16!!! He is a good brother and went to Keaton's pinewood derby that night!! After the derby we went home and I made him a Skor Cake, his favorite, and Katie got his favorite ice cream-Burnt Almond Fudge! (both also his sister's favorite) On Wednesday night we went to Boston's for his birthday dinner and it was really good! I forgot to take my camera though! We hope he had a good birthday, now just waiting for him to get his licence!

Keaton's Pinewood Derby

On Tuesday, March 15, 2011 we went to Keaton's pinewood derby for scouts! It was also Josh's birthday and they let everyone know it was his birthday by singing to him! Ryan helped Keaton make his car and they did an awesome job, it looked great!! He did good racing too! He took 4th place and got the BEST WORKMANSHIP AWARD!!!!!

March 13, 2011 Sunday BBQ





On Sunday we had my dad, Josh, Keaton, Ryan, and Katie over for dinner! Kent made us ribs in the dutch oven that were soo good!! He did an awesome job! Katie brought rolls, and baked potatoes we also had a green salad! A little change from our usual sunday dinner of roast with potatoes and gravy, I think everyone really liked it though! Kent bought a basketball hoop so the boys played basketball and it was such a nice day outside! Too bad it hasn't stayed that nice!! Braxton loved being outside!! He threw a fit everytime we had to come in the house!!! So I bet we will be spending a lot of time outside this summer!!! I'm glad we could have my family over and I hoped they had fun and enjoyed the ribs!!

Keaton's Last Basketball Game





We went to Keaton's last basketball game this season! He played so good and I know my mom was watching and cheering for him and is so proud of how good he did!! Keaton made several points!! I tried to upload the video of him making his lay-up but couldn't get it, :( It was awesome!! Grandma and Grandpa Rigby, Grandma Wilson, Aunt Mary, Tanner, Katie, Josh, Bree, Kent, and Braxton were all there to cheer him on!! We are so proud of you Keaton! You are a great player and can't wait to watch you again next season!!!
mom's gorgeous view






I didn't think it was possible to miss her anymore than we already do, it seems to just be getting harder and missing her more and more everyday. It has been 4 weeks tomorrow to the day that she passed away, it seems so weird to me. Even though I know she is not coming back it is so hard to understand and accept it, I look and pictures of her and it seems like a dream to me. I wish so badly that I could talk to her again. I miss not being able to pick up the phone to call her even just to ask where a store is like I almost did today. We all miss and love you so much mom!
