First Day of School






Well I am officially down to just one kid home during the day! Of course she equals almost 3 so who am I kidding.


C.L. starts 1st grade without his two front teeth, well almost.........He had me look in his mouth and his two front new teeth were coming in behind, so we spent the weekend removing the other 2. He doesn't even hardly look like he is missing teeth at all. He was excited for school to start so he could see all of his friends, however he is a little reserved about going ALL day.


Bryton looking so grown up started 4th grade! She has Ms. King for the third time in her elementary career. (We love Ms. King) She is glad that school is starting because she is tired of being bored.....................

Almost "1" Party!


Since we would miss Johnny's birthday we decided to celebrate at Camp. Grandma brought a cake and Grandpa made ice cream with the Generator. He is such a sweet Little Guy.

"Pay per View"

Upper Calf Creek Falls

Kline, Mitch, Kyle, Mike, Carson, Daniel




Uncle Mark put it so perfectly. It is a beautiful view and a lot of fun at the Calf Creek Upper Falls, and when you start to hike back out you pay for the view! Carson, Bryton, C.L. and I took on the Upper Calf Creek Falls hike on Friday July 25, 2008. We had a great support system comprised of cousins, aunts and uncles! We all headed out arount 8am. The hike was about a mile in to the swimming hole/falls. The Manly men jumped off the cliff numerous times and were great entertainment for all. Addie and Bryton both got brave and jumped off also. Bryton's dive will go down in history! I think I can win money with it. I will attempt to add the video to my blog, I have never tried that before! I was a little over-heated and tired, but we all made the hike without injury or even having to carry anyone out! It was a great morning!!!!

Splish Splash!!!





Well, completing our first day of travel brought us to the swimming pool in Richfield Utah. Grandma & Grandpa Pearson, Uncle Kyle, Noah, Johnny, and Our Family enjoyed pizza and then drained the remaining childrens energy in the pool. We all enjoyed the visit and the playing!

Stopping By to say Hello & We love You!


This picture was too cute not to share. We headed on our way to Southern Utah and stopped in with Aunt Judy for a "Date". I don't understand why she would be afraid of a date with all of these cute little faces!!!! : ) We enjoyed our short little visit and hope that we can date a little more often! We love you Aunt Judy!

Lighting Up Lives, One loan at a time!


Well, the theme for Atomic Days was "You light up my life" in celebration of the first city to be lit by atomic power. I got this big idea to make a float for work! It turned out pretty good and was rewarded. We received the "Best Theme Award" and the "Judges Choice". Maybe when I forget how big of a pain chicken wire is I'll attempt this again!

Cowboys, Arco style.



Atomic Days weekend was a crazy weekend filled with much excitement. Aunt Amy & Uncle Carson treated the Bloxham kids to their first Rodeo experience. C.L. almost had a full ride on the sheep, and Tanner put up a good fight! They were proud little cowboys! I was pleasantly surprised how much of the rodeo I enjoyed with 7 kids! They all were great, and I will take them Rodeoing any time they want! I know it isn't their mom's favorite thing to do!
