Party with the family

All the Becker's and Reese's got together to swim and have pizza! My parent's flew in around 4:30! It was very fun!! Josh had a great time with our new camera!!

PJ shirt from Grant that he has worn everyday since he got it!! He really likes toothless!! (And the free Dragon hat Dad got with his sunglasses order!)

Trent's 7!

Blake was awake when Josh brought the bike in, he was thrilled. He kept saying "Bike," accent on the i. So we told him to go wake up Trent and he went running in and said, "Bike Bike Bike!"

After church we had Trent's favorite chicken and noodles! He did not want a cake or anything . . . he wanted lemon poppy seed muffins! He kept eating them though before the party! The wind would not let the candles light!

Boys first Whoopy Cushion from Joe Beeston!

Scented colored pencils!

Let the party begin!

Our party weekend begins! Trent has been planning his birthday for 2 months. He makes lists, then recopies them over and over and over again! One funny thing besides his time schedule is that he wants to be the parent on his actual birthday! Mainly, set bed time! Having a birthday around Memorial Day and on a Sunday lends itself to lots of parties!

Saturday morning Blake went outside to see Josh mow the lawn and set up camp!! Josh was cracking up!!

Josh ran to get some spray for the trees and Joslyn's little Cambree (9 months) was picked up by an ambulance! She had turned blue! The boys told me there was a fire truck out front but I thought it was to test the hydrants! Nope . . . I saw the Condie's front door open, police, and an ambulance and headed over! David Colqui (Josh's cousin) was the cop at the door . . . so calming to see him! Brenda Wilcox took the big kids and Joslyn rode in the ambulance. Kenny rode up with his folks and sister Kim.

Trent wanted his birthday lunch to be at the Olive Garden!

We headed swimming with the Mortensen's, Johnson's, Brockbank's and Ben's family!! It was very fun even though it started out quite chilly!!

After the party we went to the Herbert's Memorial Day BBQ! Too cold to stay for the movie, so we did it at our house!

Last day of school!

Last day of 1st grade!! Trent got home at 10:15am! We went to JCW's for lunch and then to see Shrek 4! Brysen came with us! I feel like this yellow hoodie represents Trent as a 1st grader!

Flip - flops and stuff!

Tanya gave Blake some flip-flops and he LOVES them!! I told him Andi gave them to him! He has had them on since he got them! They look so cute!! He would not smile for me in these pictures!

Dad went to St. George this weekend for Johnny's bachelor party!! They had a great time!!

The boys were talking this afternoon during lunch for about 45 minutes! Grant was saying he is going to grow up, buy a truck and be a do-gooder! (from Backyardigans) He is going to drive around and find bad guys! He, his wife and kids are going to sleep in the truck too, with pillows! Trent decided he wanted to do this with Grant too! He wondered if they could live together in the truck! Grant said yes. Trent said they could use a porta-potty. He explained to Grant what a porta-potty is! They were cracking me up! They went on and on how they were going to sing the "do-gooders" song to their kids and then read books.

Grant's Graduation

Grant said "B is for bus and Becker."

Blake having a fit because Dad was taking pictures and not holding him!

Funny Guys

At the Tall's birthday party Trent told me he was feeling a little jealous. Grant heard and told me he was feeling a little bit nauseous. (trying to say jealous) A couple days later Grant wanted to tell me he was jealous again and said he was feeling unconscious! I was cracking up!

We now realize that Blake thinks all hurts are trailers! We have thought it was so cute that he constantly talks about his hurt knees from the trailer! The other day he pointed to my cold sores on my lip and said, "Hurt, Rairer!"

Blake is obsessed with Motorcycles! Any motorcycle, dirt bike or anything he sees, on the road, on a trailer anywhere he yells out, "Cycle!!" We love it!!

Josh's cousin Kim is making a "love quilt" for Grandma Stanton to have during chemo! I purchased 3 squares for our family to do! Trent was just not up to doing it, but I had to get them mailed back to Kim. I convinced them to come to the table and do it for me. I wrote, "Blake loves Grandma" on a square then started doing something else in the kitchen. The boys were cracking up. Grant said, "We did a joke on the square." Come to find out Trent wrote on Blake's square, "PS - a gok (joke) he doesn't even know you." So honestly, it is so rude but very funny, I could not stop laughing. I was also ticked because the square was ruined. Funnier then that, Josh thought we should mail it anyway because they are just kids! I am still laughing . . . I don't know why it strikes me as so funny!

Healing

On the mend! Medicine is so nasty!!
