The Sundance Kids

We have loved Sundance Utah for a long time. We have dreamt of buying a cute little cabin for years. With home prices being what they are right now, we decided to make this dream come true!

Time to par-tay!

It's Luke's 17th birthday! Some cute girls are throwing him a party tonight. Woop woop!

In honor of Luke I have written a special birthday poem...

Twas a week before Christmas with babe number six in my womb,

"Come out! Come out! I have no more room!"

With little fanfare he arrived, looking like the others,

And was welcomed with the flu by his sisters and brothers!

He was jolly and fat and sucked his two fingers a lot!

Was babied by his mama and sisters, but by the boys he was not!

At eight, his siblings convinced him adopted was he,

Unfortunately for him this was not to be!

He is a Spiker/Petersen combo and it surly shows,

From his Petersen schnoz to his freaky long toes,

Tall and funny... but this kids has the smarts!

And he's lactose intolerant, milk gives him the farts

He grew up so quickly and is now handsome and so full of sass,

He knows mixed martial arts, so watch it or he will kick your... butt.

The End!

America's Next Top Model

Just in case any of you forgot, I will remind you that patrick was one cute kid. He had a short career as a baby model. Here he is in an ad for Gymboree. He was two years old and already working the babes...

Parents Weekend at BYU!

It was parents weekend at BYU. Since we had not seen Patrick for 3 whole weeks, we packed up and headed for Utah! We stayed with Courtney and Josh in Sugerhouse but spent a lot of time in Sundance. On Saturday our day went a little like this...

Taking the ski lift up to the hiking trails...

We decided on Stewart Falls...

The incredible scenery along the way!

Just breathtaking. The photos really don't do it justice!

Patrick, Josh, Luke and Courtney

Boys, being boys.

Boys.. being well stupid, and scaring their mom.

This photo of Robert Redford and his daughter in Sundance

hangs in the hallway of the resort.

Dinner with all the boys at the Foundry Grill... Yum!

And finally... The game!

Patrick and his friends getting their game faces on.

BYU defeated Colorado State quite handily! Yay Cougars!

It was a great day! Busy but fun. We miss the kids but are so glad they are enjoying their time in Utah. And it just gives us more reasons to visit!
