CEDAR MTN. RHINO RIDE

This past saturday Mike & Tahj headed up to cedar mountain for some father/son time. They went to our friends cabin and went out on the rhinos. That morning Tahj was soo excited about going on the rhinos that he wore his goggles from our house all the way to cedar mountain. Mike said he wouldn't take them off. They had lots of fun because there was still snow on the mountain and in some parts maybe a little too much because they ended up getting stuck. I guess it took them awhile to get unstuck, I think Mike said it took them over an hour to get both the rhinos out. And I'm guessing before the ride Tahj found the yamaha store and wanted his dad to buy him a 4-wheeler. Mike said he told Tahj they would come back later to get the 4-wheeler, that was the only way he could get him to leave. I'm glad they had fun playing in the snow and getting all muddy. By the time they got home they were both ready for bed, as you can tell Tahj was worn out, he didn't even take his sweatshirt or shoes off. And if you know Tahj that's all he's been talking about, getting the rhino stuck in the snow!! Glad you guys had a fun time and next time we will be ready to go with you guys...

3RD ANNUAL MUDDY 2 THE MEADOW UTV & ATV RIDE

On Saturday it was the annual muddy to the meadow ride. They leave from carp elgin and go up to Panaca, it's an all day ride, about 12 hours. This year Maliyah was the one that got to go with Mike. I was kind of worried when she said she wanted to go, she is not one to sit still for very long!! But Mike said she did good and did not complain once. And he said not very many people went this year. That's because they changed the day, they were suppose to go the week after the fair (but that when Mike had is heart attack) but Kyle (he's the one that puts this all together) is such a good friend that he changed it to this weekend so Mike could go. Mike said they had lots of fun and went on lots of new trails, different from last year. And I guess instead of going to Panaca they went to Caliente and had lunch there. Mike said they went about 180 miles, they got home about 6:30 pm and they were both very tired.

MAY DAY DANCE

On Friday May 1st it was the schools annual May Day Dance. This year was special because it was Mykae's last year doing the May Day Dance. That's right she will be heading to middle school next year. (I can't believe my baby will be in 6th grade, crazy huh!!) The 5th graders did the tradional braiding of the may pole and the parents also get to go out with their kids to help braid the may pole. As you can tell in the pictures Mike was the lucky one that got to go out there with Mykae. Look how cute they are and they didn't even mess up. Does it bring back memories Mike?? It was only, how many years ago did you do this....She also did tininkling, it's where 2 students using poles tap them on the ground and 1 person jumps over and in between them.
This year Maliyah's dance was the Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride (the song from Lilo & Stitch). She had lots of fun doing the dance and the whole week she was excited for us to see her dance, it's all she talked about. I told her to wear her dress she got from Hawaii but of course what does mom know, she said she couldn't wear a long dress because her teacher told them to wear shorts. I guess I should be glad that she actually listens to someone because she sure doesn't listen to her parents. Well, another year of May Day dances down and only another 10 more years to go. Hopefully by the time Preslee is doing the may day dances that they will have some new dances!!
