Ryan found the sharpie!!!!!!!!

I can honestly say that in the six and a half years that I've been a mother that I have never had to encounter this!!! Ryan got a hold of one of our sharpie markers. He was happily doing his artwork on my laundry room wall. I always encourage my children to be artistic and have imaginations but this takes the cake. Daddy is going to freak when he gets home tonight. The picture above is Ryan in time out. As you can see he is pretty proud of himself. That little s#@t!!! I love him.
Ryan's artwork. I'm just glad it's in the laundry room were we can hide it.

Happy Birthday Ryan!!!!!

I made this magnificent cake isn't it cute!! It took way to long to make. But Ryan loved it.

Mr. Man is Three!!

Mere's and Papa (G-ma and G-pa Harker) buy shoes for the kids Birthdays. Here is Ryan getting his shoes.

Grandma and Grandpa Marley get pinata for the boys b-days. Here is Ryan helping grandma stuff candy in it.

We asked Ryan what he wanted to do for his Birthday and he told us he wanted to go to Donald's house. (AKA McDonald's) Here is Ryan in the toy area.

Can you believe it our baby is three. Time has gone by so quickly. I love my little Rye Rye so much!!!! Happy Birthday Ryan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We love you!

A Mother's Day Picnic!

Mother's Day 2009!!!!

Well this is my seventh Mother's Day and every year it's a joy to be a Mama! A hot Mama!!!!!

So Lane and I decided that we wanted to do something special for the two woman who went through hours of pain to bring us into the world. So Lane and I took our Mom's on a Mother's Day picnic on Saturday. We ordered Chinese, packed a table cloth and dishes and took them to Ross Park for a Mommy date. We had fun visiting with our Mom's and spending quality time with them. We have decided that we must continue the tradition every year. We love our Mom's!! Thank you for all you do for us. We love you and are grateful you are in our lives! Happy Mother's Day!! Love, Lane and Serena

I love to try and shock my Mom whenever I get the chance. When lane took this picture I was trying to grab my Mom's bum. As you can see I thought it was funny! I love this look on her face.

What a timeless treasure to share with my grandchildren.

Here is me and my Mother in law Jackie. I tried to violate her too but she just grabbed me back!

Lane and his Mommy!! Don't they look alike. Poor Lane, his Mama is taller then him. Lane had to stand on his tipsy toes!!!!

Lane and my Mom Mary.

Serena's first race!!

Top: Lane and I before race! Bottom: Me and my friend Lindsey!

Lane did the Pocatello fun run last year . It has five races though the summer. I felt inspired after watching how much fun Lane had doing it last year. This is the first race of the year. The next one is in June. It was a lot of fun and I'm really proud of myself. The pic on the bottom is me with my friend Lindsey.

2009 SLC 1/2 Marathon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My #1 fan and President of the Lane Marley Fan Club!

This is my friend Clay Smith he also ran the 1/2 marathon.

I did it! I finished the Salt Lake City Half Marathon! I beat my old time by 5 minutes for a time of 2:05:19! The weather was perfect, the race started at 7:00 AM with a temperature of about 45 degrees there were 4125 participants I ended up 1797th place. The course was pretty flat and fast with plenty of room on the road for all participants. The race started at the Olympic bridge over by the University of Utah and ended at the Gateway mall. It was a great feeling to run around the corner and see the finish line 200 yards ahead of me, this gave me a feeling of accomplishment to see tons of people there to cheer me on! At the end of the race it took me nearly 20 minutes to find Serena or should I say it took her 20 minutes to find me! This was a great opportunity to get ready for the Pocatello full Marathon! I have a lot of work to do before September 5th!

The Finish Line!

Superman!!!!!!!!!

We live on a hill and have a retaining wall in our backyard. Lane has been waiting all winter to jump off of the wall onto our tramp. Here is his maiden jump!!! (THIS ONE'S FOR YOU EMILY!!) Don't ask when the video of me is coming. It's not going to happen. I'm too chicken.

Spring has sprung!!!!!

With the arrival of spring comes yard work. Lane has been dying to get his hands dirty since November. We have a portion of our yard that needs landscaping. We sure have our work cut out for us.

The boys love all the dirt that they get to play with.

Lane tilling the yard.

Is there something on my tongue?

We had a beautiful spring day and had to take advantage of it. Here is Laney with is buddy Conner.
