Brocks at the Beach!
Our three babies!
Our sweet girl in white!
Jesse took these family photos and it only took TWO evenings of dressing up and posing to find some acceptable pictures! Thank you very much Uncle Jesse!
Uncle Jesse Comes to Visit!
Jesse finally got to visit and "stay" this time. We took him to Myrtle Beach and had a great time! He was our photographer and did an outstanding job!
Baylee builds a "healing center" on the beach and "cures" us of all our ailments!
We love our Brock Boys!Sunday, April 12, 2009
Brock Motocross!
Ammon put our fallen tree to good use and built a ramp for jumping! Way to go Brandon!
Homework Time!
Every afternoon while the big kids do homework, little Ben has to "e-e-o" too! For some reason he calls coloring or drawing "e-e-o". Can anyone tell us WHY?

Baby Loves Dot-doang!
I think I read that babies aren't supposed to have popcorn until 3 years old! My family eats popcorn every night and we tried to keep it away from our Benjamin.......without success! He loves it and asks for it when the kids are making it......."dot-doang"!
An Eventful Weekend!
The kids had a make-up snow day and had to go to school on Saturday, then we had B's opening baseball game. The next morning our little baby went running into the master bath like he always does, to turn on the tub. He crashed into the side of the tub and got a bad owie! After debating for several hours we decided to take him to Urgent Care where he received 2 stitches! They had to wrap him in a papoose to keep him still..........traumatic for everyone involved, but especially for the parents!The Finale To Our Weekend!
We had a little rain in the morning, but it was a strong gust of wind that knocked over our tree. Ammon borrowed a chainsaw and is "bucking" the tree himself! We learned the term--"bucking a tree"--on the Discovery channel. Baylee wants to keep the tree as it is, to use for a balance beam to paractice her gymnastics!
Pinewood Derby March 2009. Brandon won "Most Unique" with the only car using bullets as weights!! Way to go guys!Wednesday, March 25, 2009
Baby's First Veggie!
Okay, this little nut hasn't eaten a veggie since his babyfood! He does eat all fruit, just no veggies. The other night at dinner he ate his green beans! This joyous moment deserved a place on the blog!This is what my kids do in their free time!
They got a box from the attic and designed this aircraft all by themselves. We had no idea what they were making, until they called us out to see it! Way to go Kids!
Yes, he is 20 months. Yes, he is too old for a passey. (I gave it to him for fun at 17 mos and now he wants it at every nap). No, that firetruck is not for riding. He is too funny!Thursday, February 19, 2009
Gymnastics Recital!
Our little gymnast is very graceful! We enjoyed seeing her performance on Valentine's Day!

6-8 inches of SNOW!
It never fails, we usually get snow around President's Day! The schools were closed due to the HEAVY snowfall (Utahans are laughing). The kids had a great time playing in the fluffy white stuff!
Baylee's petite snow woman!We all love the WII.....but
This baby is nuts! He begs and whines to go upstairs at least THREE TIMES DAILY to play the Wii!! He goes in there after his bath in the morning.....then begs to go up after lunch, then again in the afternoon......and especially after Daddy comes home! Who ever heard of a 17 mos old INSISTING on playing the Wii?????Fun at Home with Ben!
This reminds me of his brother, Brandon! Someone once told me regarding children: "Girls whine and Boys destroy!: It certainly is true in our family!Wednesday, January 7, 2009

Cafe Rio Sweet Pork!
We tried this recipe for Cafe Rio's sweet pork and it tastes like the real thing:2 lb pork roast
3 cans dr pepper (not diet)
1/4 c brown sugar
garlic salt
1/4 c water
1 can diced green chilies
3/4 -1 c red enchilada sauce
1 c brown sugar
Marinate the roast in 1 1/2 cans dr pepper and 1/4 c brown sugar for a few hours.
Drain marinade and place pork in crockpot. Mix 1/2 can dr pepper, water and garlic and pour over roast and cook 3-4 hours or until it shreds easily.
Remove shredded pork and mix together with 1/2 can dr pepper, enchilada sauce and 3/4 to 1 c brown sugar along with chilies. Add garlic salt, and salt & pepper to taste Warm in crockpot on high or on the stove. Sorry, I dont have a picture, but its so yummy!
