This is what AJ did on the 4th of July. This years show was only an hour and a half, not two. He is really so fun to watch. The highlight-- when the boys would go out on the road to light the next firework, he would throw out a small handfuls of those pop things and they would pop all around. It was great. There are a couple more pic's coming later.


Grandpa, or Colonel, Stewart and Grandma Stewart were special guests at a military thing around the 4th of July. It was at the Grand Hotel in Salt Lake City, and I loved the picture of them. They are some awesome people.
Sorry it took me so long to get it on the blog.


I love my boys! Ben's left, Jackson right.



Jackson stands above the fan with Sam's shirt on and thinks he is so funny. But, hey, so do his parents!


This is what Sam did, or tried to do, on the 4th of July. It was the last book of "The Work and the Glory" he only had 30 pages left. No, he didn't get to finish it that day.



This is what AJ did at the Stewart's on the 4th of July. Remind me why my kids just want to be around him all the time?


This is what Emily did at the Stewart's on the 4th of July. It was fantastic!!

Sariah's and McCain's wedding. I didn't take my camera and I still have not developed my film from the 4th of July, so once again my blog's going to be out of order. But, what a fun weekend in Jerome Idaho. Sariah looked beautiful. McCain had his nice black wranglers on with the fancy cowboy vest and tie. He's so whooped. It's a good thing. The place looked great and the killer was, Sally didn't look stressed! She looked busy, but not stressed. It's always fun to hang out with Walt. Chunky monkey is just how I thought (from the pictures) and I loved watching Beebe and Tyler. Who's in charge? We had a great time at the pool. It was great to have Steven and Alexandra, and the girls there. And I always LOVE Garrett. He's sooooo boy. Walter and Ruth did great and I tried not to hover and let Walt drive and take care of them. I got to correcting him on how to do this and that, and remembered that they are his parents too. Val was there, but Scott had to work. Danny, who looked fab, was there with Bailey and Natalie. I think Scott and Val are going to have full guardianship with them. I'm not sure if they're doing that or adopting them. Leslee and Kaylee were there and Kaylee is just so cute. SO cute. Leslee has tattoos of butterflies on her back. She showed them to everyone at the wedding. Emily and AJ were very good to my kids, as always. And Emily knows where her bread is buttered because she was very good to bring her Dad back a diet coke on Sat. afternoonwhile he was slaving away at the church. The reception was great because we had the "Stewart" table going on. I learned the Del Taco rule during the luncheon. Good to know. It's always good to hang out with Walt. Then, after the mother of the bride put on a wedding luncheon, a wedding, a reception, and the clean up of the church, she conducted in RS the next morning, helped Jacob give a talk in Sac mtg, and helped Slade with his Sunday School lesson. Dang if that mormon club doesn't keep you busy. But..... to top it all off, She has the Stewart's, Righter's, Monson's, BUHLER clan, her own Buhler clan and feeds us all on the front lawn. It was great! And we all sat around and visited and got our cups full. I just think Sally is all that and a hot dog too. I would have been a hollin' Sam do this, and Sam do that Blah Blah Blah and she just wisked around and worked the crowd. Eric is good to work the crowd to. Slade was stuck at bbque. And I felt bad, because by the time he was done and ready to play his guitar we all had to get on down the road. I wished we could have stayed. But, we got home and continued the party at the farm and watched old, old, old, home movies. Yes, I can truthfully say that I've seen my Brother-in-law's bare butt. Ok, Ok, it's when he was about a year old. Saw Walt and Marcia's wedding, the Cliff's of Dover, Garbage Hill (sp?)Ann's nose that she tried to snip off? Baby Emily. Good stuff. Ok, outta time for today!


Jackson's art work. Yes, we have started something. If big brother is getting his art on the web, well then, little brother should too. This is a tracing from a castle and knights book.

Sam went fishing. But, as with hunting pheasants, he can not do it alone. He always has company.
