A bunch of wonderfulness!!

The new kitchen floors! Tyson did a wonderful job! It looks so good, mom loves it!

The back, it has lots of room and the seats fold down for extra space if needed!!

The backseats, where teko rides!

The interior is way nice. It has an awesome radio so i can jam out of course! :)

Mom's new car!!! A.K.A her new baby!

This is me in the dress i wore for the homecoming dance! I went with Jordan Palmer.

Happy Mother's Day!

We decided to take advantage of having Grandma
Quirl at our house on Mother's Day and took a
four generation picture.

Denise Merrill, Carina Carter with her two daughters,

Daisy and Sarah, and Phillis Quirl.

Senior Prom

Senior Prom was May 9th. Makell was

asked by Tyler Beddes.

She looked so pretty in her polka dot dress!

A picture of Makell with two of her sisters, Amy & Brendie

(aka: hair dressers and makeup consultants).

Makell and Tyler

(Isn't his pink bowtie cute?)

I think they look pretty cute together!

Makell is Going to State Track!!

Makell at the District Track Meet on May 7th & 8th.

Here she is preparing to run the 100 meter hurdles.
She qualified to go to State Track which is in Boise on
May 14th & 15th! YAY!!! She's so excited! I wish her the
best of luck and hope she can do her very best, but
most of all I hope she has fun and enjoys the experience.

Random Pics of the Grandkids

Sarah asleep on my bed. She wiggled around enough

to slide her headband down. It looks like she has one

of those things over her eyes to keep the light out! :)

I caught one of Sarah's first smiles! Isn't it sweet?

Look at this handsome little guy! Jason & Amy were home
for Amy's brother's wedding. I'm afraid Ryan probably took
some of the attention away from the groom!

Emily didn't want her picture taken, but I took one
when she wasn't looking. She's such a sweet little girl.

Doesn't Chelsey look like a pretty princess?
She's growing into a beautful little girl.
It sure was fun to have them visit for a few days.

Mont's Happy Birthday!

Mont celebrated his 67th birthday on April 24.

Lighting all 67 candles!

Wow! Pretty bright, huh?!

Look at all the smoke after he blew them out!

Amazingly enough, it didn't set the fire alarm off.

BOISE!!!!

Me Kam and Ali drove down to Boise for boys basketball state! It was so much fun!


Me and my two best friends!!

Getting ready!!

Waiting for the game to start!

Driving down to boise! ( i was watching the road very carefully to make sure i didnt lose tylers parents and get lost!)

Pete and Tink!

Makell invited Tyler to go to the Sadie Hawkins Dance.

The theme for the dance was "A Night At the Movies"

and they were supposed to dress up like a couple

from a movie. Makell and Tyler dressed up like

Peter Pan and Tinkerbell. They made a pretty cute couple.

Thank heavens Tyler was a good sport and was willing to

wear tights, hat, etc.

Happy Birthday Brendie!!!

Wandering through the kitchen

Fun in the snow!

We got lots of snow during the week of Christmas. While Jason was home he decided to help the little girls -- Daisy, Chelsey and Emily -- build a snowman. It turned out to be a pretty awesome snowman. I think it's about the best one I've ever seen. The girls decided to name him Frosty! :o) Jason and the girls rolling up the first big ball for the snowman's body.

The snow was so heavy, they knew they would need some help getting the next big ball up on top of the first one, so they decided to recruit some help, so Carina and Grandma went out to help.

The end product and the proud creators. Isn't he a nice looking snowman?!

Meet our version of "Frosty".

After they were done building the snowman, Jason and the girls decided it would be fun to build a cave in the snow. Jason dug and dug and dug and then the girls got to crawl up in it and have their picture taken!

We also had a lot of fun sliding down the big hills Grandpa Mont had made scraping off the driveway. All in all, we had a pretty fun day playing in the snow!
