I don't remember the last time I updated so....








Here ya go, same ole stuff different day, Pretty much...
Ky is loving kindergarten- she has a wonderful teacher I get to help out in class every other week. She is still in dance and just had her winter dance recital, she did such a great job dancing to "Rockin around the Christmas Tree".
Jeramey still works ALL of the time. We are very thankful for the work and blessed that he has work. He hasn't done much racing, we did go to mesquite um I think the end of October and he raced a quad, he did really well and it was nice to get away. And we always have so much fun with our racing family.
My friend Brandi and I had a fabulous idea of making cute witch costumes for our girls for halloween and KyLee hated hers, but they looked so cute!
I think that is it! here are a couple of pictures Tahn took of Ky for her 5th birthday- she is so talented!!! ( Tahn I mean... I guess Ky is too though....)
I am working on addressing everyone's Christmas card's right now.. such a slacker!!! But I am really close to being done Christmas shopping!! anyway!! hope everyone is doing well!

So I haven't died.... Just been busy, like the rest of the world!

Ky and Grandpa Finch
Chelle Ky and Chels
BBQ
Chase and Ky


July has come and gone! it consisted of BBQs, and camping... I think....
August has almost come and gone too!!
We went to Yellowstone with my family for a week, and had a blast! it was really nice to get a way from the fast pace for a while, and just when I was getting used to relaxing vacation was over!!
While we were in Yellowstone KyLee turned 5!!! I can't believe it! I have a 5 year old!! she has always been quite independant but seems to be more so recently, I do not like it not one bit!! but I am sure she is just getting me used to it since she will be starting kindergarten on September 3rd.
Anyway - pictures will be posted as soon as I get my butt in gear.... I think I do have some from the 4th of July though.....

Really Quick update

So since the last post..
KyLee graduated from preschool... the little stinker is growing up way too fast. Her teacher Mrs. Shepherd was fabulous! I am sure she is ready for kindergarten, me on the other hand I am not ready for her to be in kindergarten!
Right after graduation we headed down to Cherry Creek for our Annual Memorial camping trip, we had so much fun! the first night it was just Jeramey Ky and I ( I hardly knew what to do with myself!) and then the next few days everyone else trickled in: Cory, Chelle and Jessie, Ramie and Ben, Jennie Gavin , Chase and Cole, Mom and Dad Finch and Grandma, Brent and Chelsea- unfortunately Katie Shawn and family had to stay home this year ( but for a really good reason named Dallas Hyrum) We had a little rain, a lot of sun and fun just being together.
This past weekend was filled with packing. My Mom and Dad Blackburn are moving... yes. this is a fairly recent thing, and their house was only on the market for a week, they have to be out by this Saturday.They have a new house in Woodscross that they hopefully will close on June 12th-
We also had a baby shower for Brandon and Heather's baby... that we will hopefully get to meet soon!! Derrick and Jenn also are moving, they are building a house in foxborough and it will be done in November.
Tonight is Enrichment night ( a murder mystery dinner... ) hopefully it will go well. Other than that I am enjoying the beautiful summer so far!!

All the Finch grandkids


A few congrats are in order first of all congrats to Tahnie for her Bachelors in communications! I have been privledged to attend many graduation ceremonies, all for my family, and I am always amazed at the hard work and effort that it takes to graduate! tears filled my eyes as they announced her name ( not because I had anything to do with it at all) but because I was so proud that she had accomplished such a goal! Education is such an important thing, I love learning and I love that she took the time to improve herself by increasing her knowledge and is moving closer toward who she wants to be!
Congrats to Katie and Shawn my brother and sis in law they had a beautiful baby boy Dallas Hyrum Loutensock yesterday he was 7 pounds 9 ounces and 19 inches long... Shawn was so excited to have a boy after his 3 little princesses!! and I finally have pictures to document the going ons.... here you go!!
Oh and happy belated mothers day to all of the wonderful women in our lives, I just have to say that Ky sang in church yesterday and I just cried, for as long as I can remember I have always longed to have a child sing to me on mother's day... and it was totally worth the wait!
Happy Birthday to Adam on Sunday! thanks for being such a great bro and uncle!

We are still alive....

Sorry I haven't blogged in a while, truth be told I haven't read any blogs in a while, so I thought that I would take a minute and update date ya all on our life and like usual for whatever reason it is busy... seems funny because when I think about it I don't get why I always feel so busy!! anyway! here you go....
Jeramey is officially SLAMMED with work, according to him at 11:30 last night.( it is true his shop can't hold one more bike) I feel blessed that he has work! His friend is also racing in the supermotor series as a pro and Jer is his mechanic, so he is traveling with that. Supercross was this past weekend and one of his clients Jeremy O'Driscoll raced in the lite's class ( the 250's )
so he was at the race all weekend, Plaza Cycle had their big open house and had serveral supercross riders there for autographs and they showed off the newly remodeled showroom.
Ky is offically registerd for kindergarten at West Jordan Elementary ( much to my dismay)
she just had her dance competition and has her final recital in May. She also decided to try soccer this season , and so far really likes it. She is my little sidekick and I love that she is so willing to go and run errands with me. We also had a trip to the Dinosaur Museum, of course we went to supercross , and put up a trampoline in the backyard.
My parents took us kids and spouses ( except for Jeramey and Adam) to Wicked and I LOVED it! My Dad retired from the Air National Guard after 20 years of service the last 5 or so as the Master Nurse ( or something like that) and Lieutenant Colonel. My Dad is such a brillant humble man, and I loved that his Commander made him have a retirement ceremony. I am grateful for his love of our Country and his dedication to his unit.
My sweet Mom also retired as Family Support Coordinator she was so involved with the deployments and keeping families informed with how their husband or wife is and helped them with their needs while their spouse was gone. She also made countless baby blankets, stuffed 5000 Easter eggs a year for the Easter Egg hunt, Wrapped thousands of Christmas presants. Her dedication not only to the Guard Unit but to my Dad as well. I could go on and on. I am grateful for their example in my life, this is one of the many things that made their marriage so strong.
Well that ended up longer than I anticipated, but that is us in a nutshell. I do have pictures of these events, and will post them as soon as I can.
