I really haven't been one for blogging lately, so here is a high speed recap of what has been going on with ToneLoc & Company.

This weekend we went to Vegas for an Xterra. We left our kidlets and partied it up with the friends. It was a lot of fun. Jake pretty much owned the bike and swim, but weather making the waves higher than preferred, he had a fight with his stomache with some barfing and that made the run give him some problems. But I am proud. We met up with our friends and shopped and had a thrilling time. At the Cheesecake factory, I had a moment. I sat there laughing and appreciating these faces that I have been through so much with and watched go through so much. I love them, their humor, their honesty, their innocence. I am lucky to have such a wide circle of people that I adore, that probably have no idea of my affections.
It was fun, to say the least.







This is the resort where it was at.
Celine Dion lives here, apparently.




The start of the swim.. Jake is in there, somewhere.



Conrad Stoltz. Apparently he is THE man. He wins them all. He is number 1. He was sort of wondering why I was taking his picture. Some blonde idiot, in designer jeans, big earrings, and J-Lo sunglasses. Whatever, man, maybe I am cooler than you think! (or maybe I actually listen to my husband's ramblings so I know precisely who you are..)








Melanie McQuaid, the female Conrad, the triathalon woman.



This was his tri a week ago, continuing my role as cheerleader.



Mini with her minies.



Jake's brother, it was his first triathalon. Let's hope for Jen's sake he doesn't get the bug, she has it bad enough for one family.



I never know what is legal to post of him.. I don't want to be in the dog house by posting a post swim.. or get the bike shorts at the WRONG angle. Heaven knows those bike shorts don't leave much to the imagination.




And last but not least, Piper's dance recital!!

Last Year

This was Easter last year. Beckett a baby and Piper a toddler, where does time go?

More Kids Hunting For Eggs

But they are mine, so it's more exciting.




Beck discovering candy in them.



Eli...



I found one, now leave me alone.



Beck just ate candy the whole time. Bigger pieces than his mouth could handle.



And then ate some more.



And then got tired and sat down and ate some more.



And then I took it away.



This is Piper's DONT TAKE MY PICTURE face. It's basically the only one that she is facing me.

Here Kitty..

Meet Snot Rocket, Optimus Prime, Inspector Gadget, Dick Balls, Tank, and many other Jake-made-up names. We have not yet picked one because, surprisingly enough, none of those names really jump out at me as sweet, cuddly cat to include as part of your family. Call me crazy.
But nonetheless.. he is cute.

Holllaaaa!!!!

Here is me and the home girls getting our Red Mango on at the new one in Layton. So go pay it a visit, it's da bomb. And yes I have turned into a home girl who says things like hooolllaaa and da bomb. So back off. Thanks Lex for the photo! I love Red Mango. I think I'll go there tomorrow. ...

My Buddy

Two days as a single parent and we are still friends. Who would've known? Time will tale what another 24 hours will do.
