On Tuesday, February 5, Lindsi went to the hospital to have our baby Canon! We were so excited to have another cute grandson and everything went perfect for Lindsi. I went to Lindsi's in the morning to watch Cashe until Abby could come home and then headed to the hospital so that I would be there for the delivery. I have had the honor of watching all three little babies come into the world, and it truly is a miracle!</div>

And baby makes five! What a beautiful family. Cashe loved Canon and kept kissing him. I bought him a t shirt that said I'm a Big Brother. To this day, it is his favorite shirt...of course...I stayed with Cashe and Abby while Lindsi was in the hospital and had a blast. Such a funny boy my Cashe a roo...My sweet mom stayed with me and we had fun getting everything ready for Baby Canon's homecoming.</div>

We started the month of January with Cashe's 2nd birthday! Not sure where the time has gone; it just seems like yesterday, he was born and now he is a month away from being a big brother.</div>

One of Cashe's favorite activities is to go to the aquarium, so that is how we started his day. </div>

Of course, you can't go to the aquarium without a prize from Nana. Cashe chose a "big truck" which he loves and takes everywhere. Of course!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
In the evening the whole fam gathered for a birthday bash at Chuckie Cheese. Cashe loves trucks, garbage, dump, excavators, any kind of truck, so it was a perfect truck theme party</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">We started the month of December with a little service. Ben needed to complete Citizenship in the Community merit badge and part of that badge requires 8 hours of community service, and Ben chose the Utah Food Bank. For two weeks, we delivered meal boxes to seniors in the valley. It was an incredibly humbling experience as we were able to bring not only food, but a little cheer into homes. Ben packed the boxes, and we got our routes and off we went. </span></div>

The next activity was the Dance Company concert at Butler. The girls in dance company have a tradition to dance a Silver Bell waltz with the partner of their choice. Cute Aspen asked Ben way last spring, and they practiced several weeks. This was a tradition for 25 years, and it was fun to see Ben all grown up dancing the waltz.</div>

Every year the Mormon Tabernacle Choir invites a guest artist to sing with them in a fabulous Christmas show. This year Tom Brokaw narrated the program with the soloist Alfie Boe. These tickets are very hard to get, but my sweet in-laws called in October and were able to get some tickets. Chris and I were able to go with them. This concert was beyond amazing! I loved every minute of it and was so glad to be able to go. </div>

We also had a visitor with us for Christmas. My friend Cindy was going out of town for the holidays and needed a house for her dog Snickers. So he came and celebrated with us. He is the best dog and we loved having him for two weeks.<br />

Christmas morning was pretty quiet at our house. Ben was happy to get a new camera and a laptop computer! Brian gave me a new camera, so after this post, my pictures are going to improve dramatically! We were pretty boring, so we headed out to Lindsi and Nick's for breakfast and some playtime with Cashe. </div>

<br />
First, we had Halloween. We went to Lindsi's house for dinner and had fun seeing the boys in their costumes. Cashe is obsessed with garbage trucks, Nick and Lindsi crafted a costume to look like a green waste management truck! It was too cute!<br />

After Halloween, it was time for the November birthdays. We celebrated Ben's 15th birthday on Saturday, November 10. He wanted to start the day off at his favorite breakfast place, Coachman's. It's been around for years and honestly looks no different from when I went there in the 70s, but the food is actually quite good.</div>

The next event in November was a fun dessert night at Cheesecake with my ladies who served with me in primary. After the program in September, we knew we would be released soon. While I think it was time, almost three years, it was bittersweet too. It was an incredible experience to be able to be with the children on Sunday and learn from them. I had incredible counselors, secretaries (4!) and I know we will be friends forever. </div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After our fun fall activities, it was time to get to work on Ben's Eagle project. Ben set a goal to have the project finished by his 15th birthday, and so it began....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ben had very definite ideas of what he wanted to do; he wanted something that would be a lasting improvement in the community. At first, he was going to clean up a trail in a city park and build new signage for it. We thought it was a great project and he went through all of the paperwork and got it approved and then found out that the county didn't really want it done....He was disappointed at all of his initial hard work, but he got back to thinking of a new project. He knew some of his buddies had done some great projects at This is The Place State Park and so he contacted them and they had a great project for him to do...but it had to be finished and in place by the end of October. He had to get busy quickly if he wanted to make his goal by November 10. </div>

This was the bridge in front of the Relief Society Building that was in desperate need of replacement. The ground is uneven, the boards were lose and it was really dangerous to walk on.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Once again, the paperwork was done and presented to the scout committee. Yahoo...it was approved; now Ben had to figure out a way to construct it. Brian and I committed to help him do whatever he needed, but we are not real builder types; we knew we needed some expert help. My dear friend Amy's dad is a builder expert, and he just happened to be in town prior to his move to St. George. A quick phone call and a dinner at Cafe Rio and we had plans a ready! Rick was so kind to help Ben sketch out a plan, decide on materials, and organize the project. We appreciated his help so much! Ben organized a building night, got all the materials and recruited his buddies and scout troop to pitch in!</div>

Now that the walkway was completed, Ben had to figure out a way to get it to the park. We had a few trailer ideas, but it was so big that the trailers were just not going to work. So the night before we were supposed to place the walkway, Ben had to try and find another way to get it up there. Jon Anderson, a great guy in our ward, came to the rescue. He brought his big truck and helped a ton that morning! </div>

We had to get rid of the old walkway and so we took it to Bri's office and the boys had a fun time hitting it and breaking it apart. Ben taking the final swing at it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And the project is done! Ben received a nice letter from the park and they said it was "fabulous and would be around for many years." It was a ton of work, but worth it and Ben learned many leadership skills! So one more merit badge to finish and paperwork to submit to scouting office and we should be having his Court of Honor after the first of the year! Yahoo! Great job Ben!</div>

As long as Brian and I have been married, we have always voted together and today was no exception. Most of the time we agree; sometimes we cancel each other out, but always we vote! Both of us were raised by families where political debate and conversation were always part of our lives and we have tried to do the same with our children. So yesterday, there was a lively 25 plus text message discussion on candidates, ideas and while it gets spirited, our children know the value of this most basic right-We Vote. We may not always like the end result; but always we vote! </div>

What a blast!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
About a year ago, the girls and I decided we needed to take a girls only trip to NYC. After lots of planning and arranging, we were off! I love New York; I love the crowds, the noise, the shopping, walking, just everything. I was so excited to spend a few days with these cute girls and we had lots of fun things planned. We decided to take a red-eye flight so that we would have an extra day in the city. Unfortunately, our flight was delayed and instead of leaving at 11:45 p.m., we left at 1:20 a.m.. We had all been up all day and so we were a tired group when we finally arrived. </div>

We arrived in the city around 7 or so and had to wait about an hour for a cab to take up to the hotel. The cab ride was long and bumpy, and we were very excited to check in to our hotel. Well, we couldn't get an early check in, so we grabbed a quick breakfast and headed off to explore the city. We headed to the subway and went to SoHo and looked around. I don't know why I didn't take any pictures of SoHo, but it was a fun place to just walk around and look at cute little shops. </div>

Our next stop was the 9-11 Memorial. This was a must do our our list. Brian and I were there in 2010 and it was still under construction, but in two years a lot of progress had been made. It was a very sobering experience to stand where so many people lost their lives.</div>

Each memorial is placed exactly where a tower was and all the names of the people in that building or on the plane that hit are written around it. There is a 30 foot waterfall cascading into a large void at the center of the memorial. These pictures do not do it justice. It was incredibly beautiful and sad at the same time.</div>

After we toured the memorial, we were beat and headed back to the hotel for a little rest before our dinner. Kristi loves the movie <i>Serendipity</i>, and so for our first night in the city, we had a fabulous dinner. It was actually quite a tiny restaurant; it looks bigger in the movie! We sat a a cute little table by the window and enjoyed everything!</div>

On Sunday, we decided to see a play. We didn't have tickets and so we decided to just get whatever was available at the same day ticket booth. I got up early and stood in line for about an hour, Lindsi relaxed a bit and Kuri hit the Upper West Side for a little shopping. I was able to get some great seats to.....</div>

My girls in the park. <br />
<br />
After the temple, park and lunch at a lovely Italian place in the Upper West side, we headed over to Levain's-home of the Best Chocolate Chip Cookie in the USA. It was great! We did a little shopping on 5th Avenue and I bought the girls their birthday gifts- a cute bracelet for Kristi and a new watch for Lindsi.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
And even though we were sad to leave fun NYC, it was time to head home to the babies and our boys. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't even tell you how much fun I had just spending four days with my girls; I love them so much and we had a blast. We decided that we are doing girls' trips every other year and NYC every four if not sooner....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are 10 things I learned about NYC:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1. Hailing a cab is NOT as easy as it is in the movies!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2. New Yorkers are actually friendly people who are willing to give direction or advice.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
3. New Yorkers who work at Saks are NOT nice however.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
4. There are tons of restaurants in the city; try something new and eat dessert every day!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
5. Stay at the Hampton Inn on 51st and 8th-the best staff and location. Close to everything! Thanks Amy for the suggestion and for all the great places to eat.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
6. It's okay to get on the wrong subway; just get off at the next stop and change trains.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
7. Kristi is the best map reader and she directed us all over the city.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
8. Lindsi , even though she is 6 months pregnant, never stopped and kept going and going</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
9. Don't take a cab from the airport; spend a few extra bucks and take a car. A much more pleasant ride!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
And #10 and the best thing I learned in NYC is....</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
10. I have the best girls and I loved traveling with them and can't wait until 2014!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
And that ends the NYC Girls' Trip 2012.</div>

I can't believe my baby girl is 24 and a momma herself to the cutest boy! It just doesn't seem possible; I don't know where the time has gone. She is such a fun part of our family, and we love her so much. She has the most fun personality and definitely adds some spice to our family! She is the best sister to Lindsi and Ben and the best mom and wife. Happy 24th my girl! Hope you had the best day! </div>

We love to go up Big Cottonwood Canyon for an end of summer dinner. Everyone in the valley had the same idea and it was packed! We finally found a great, little secluded spot and enjoyed a super easy dinner of Subway sandwiches! We took a nice walk around the lake and saw a super huge moose not more than twenty feet away from us.</div>

It was time to say good bye to summer and head off to school. Can't believe my boy is in 9th grade and officially a freshman in high school. I know the next few years will fly. Ben is getting up super early to go to Seminary, so our first day of school picture was snapped after school. He will have a busy year as he serves as student body vice-president, plays in Symphonic Band, studies hard in honors English and continues to master Espanol!</div>

But the best end of summer news was that our little family is continuing to grow!!!!! Lindsi and Nick are having a boy due February 15, 2013. We are so so excited; three boys in two years. Can't wait for Cashe, Diesel and Canon to run around Nana's house; it's going to be a party.</div>

We started off July with saying bye to Ben. He had the opportunity to go to NYLT, a scout leadership camp as a leader and be in charge of a troop of boy scouts. He worked very hard prior to the camp attending leadership training camps and preparing lesson for the boys. He had some challenging boys in his troop, but he did a great job and all the boys really liked and respected him. But for the second year in a row, he missed our family's Fourth of July festivities...We missed you Ben!</div>

I can't believe I didn't take one picture! We had a great time seeing two plays and enjoying a few days in St. George. It was a great way to spend a few days with one of my favorite friends. Thanks Am for the tickets and fun times!!</div>

It was time for Ben to take off again for a weeklong scout camp at Bear Lake Acquatic Camp. He had a great time and completed several merit badges. His favorite was being able to finish the aviation merit badge and take a ride in a helicopter. He also spent a day boating, tubing and surfing. It was a fun week for him, but we were ready to have him home!</div>

Scott, Peyton, Clint , Ben and Karl headed off to Big Event where they did all sorts of outdoor activities and had a blast! (This was actually in June, forgot to post it)</div>

Our next July activity was Liberty Park and the Tracy Aviary. Since I was just a little girl, I have loved Liberty Park, and the aviary is super nice with a new entrance and of course lots of birds. </div>

We started the month celebrating the end of school with a trip to St. George. Virginia and Lee came with us for some golf and fun. Chris and Lee were also in town as were Dave and Karen, so we all spent some time together. The boys golfed at some fun courses and I loved spending time with my sweet mother in law. We shopped, had a yummy lunch at Tom's, went to a movie and just talked and talked. I am really blessed to have that lovely lady as my mom in law. </div>

We also went to Tuacahn to see <i>Hairspray</i>. It was the first time we had been there and it was great. It was a very windy night and at one point near the end, they had to stop the show until the wind stopped. It was a fun night and glad Chris and Lee could join us.</div>

My mom took care of Duke while we were gone and when I called home, she told us he had been really sick most of the weekend. I took him to the vets right before we left and the vet warned us that he was most likely not going to get better. We were so glad my mom was there to take care of him, as she is the best dog person, but we knew he was in bad shape. I think we knew what was ahead. When we got home on Sunday, he was not doing great, so we just loved on him and tried to make him comfortable. On Monday, I had the kids over for dinner and Duke seemed to perk up a little. About half way through dinner, he started not being able to walk and so we all had our time to say goodbye to our friend and beloved pet.</div>

I took this picture of Kristi and Duke the summer right before her wedding (2009). It was no secret that Duke and Kristi were best friends. Kristi was with me when we got him and even though the tag on his cage said he barked, dug holes and really couldn't do anything, she just knew he was the dog for us. And he was. He used to stay awake and wait for her to come home when she was in high school and jump on her bed and sleep with her. I love this picture of them. </div>

It's been three months and we still find ourselves missing our boy. We loved Duke, and he was such a big part of our family. He used to chase bees, catch them and eat them. Of course they would sting him. One day, he brought a huge dead crow in the house as a present for me. He was afraid of the dark, didn't like being alone and loved to sit by us and eat crackers. Yes, he dug holes. Many times when I would plant flowers in the spring, I would dig up a sock, a bone, a piece of licorice (he loved sweets) or other little treasures and he slept through a robbery in our house, but he was the best dog ever. We love you Duke!</div>

The month began with Nick and Lindsi celebrating their 5th wedding anniversary with a little out of town trip. We had the pleasure of watching Cashe for a few days. I know they weren't sure they could leave their little guy, but we loved it. </div>

Having Friday night dinner with Ben at Cafe Rio; Cashe loves that place.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I know Nick and Lindsi missed him so much, but we loved having him and you can go away anytime!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The next big celebration was Kristi's graduation from nursing school. She was pretty mellow about graduation, but we were not letting her special day go by without a party! Now, Kristi is tough to surprise, but we did it. Jordan, Lindsi and I planned a surprise party with both families at The Roof. We had her high school graduation dinner there, and it was the perfect place to have her college party! We had balloons and flowers and a great celebration before the ceremony.</div>

The college had a nice graduation ceremony at the Wells Fargo Building. Nursing school is grueling under the best circumstances, but Kristi finished while enduring morning sickness, work, having a baby and she still managed to do it all and get a 4.0 her final semester. We are so proud of you!</div>

The next celebration was Virginia's 80th birthday party. She really didn't want much of a fuss, but the kids wanted to not let her big day go by. She has been through so much the last few years with her health, and we were glad to celebrate with her. So we had a fun party at Schmidt's Restaurant in South Jordan. They did a great job and it was fun for Virginia to see her family, cousins, and friends.</div>

Ben was in charge of the scout Court of Honor in April. He did a nice job planning and conducting, and the troop was able to give a nice send off to their fabulous scout master Paul who had recently moved. Each boy said what his favorite memory was with Paul and they had a nice cake with the scout emblem on it. He took these boys as 12 year olds and helped them through their deacon years. I can't imagine the patience he had through all those camps and activities. What a great guy!</div>

A few days later and we were off to Seattle for my niece Erin's wedding. We had hoped to take the whole family, but with a new baby and school and jobs, it ended up being Brian, me, my mom, Ben and Lindsi. The weather was great and we had a fun time. We missed Kristi, Jord, Nick, Ab, Cashe and Diesel. It was Lindsi's first time away from Cashe, and she missed her boy so much.</div>

<br />
First, in January I celebrated the big 50 birthday. I was not looking forward to this big day and honestly, was pretty crabby to my family. I didn't even want my birthday mentioned but was sad that I thought maybe they weren't going to do anything special. I just kept hoping that Diesel would arrive a few days early and we could share a birthday, but the little guy waited for a few more days. I should know that my family loves birthdays and would not have let my day pass. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
For months Bri and the girls had been planning a surprise party for me and I have to tell you it was perfect! They invited all of my favorite people and had a fun dinner planned on my birthday at Market Street Grill. The girls took me for a pedicure and some frozen yogurt earlier in the day and we were planning on meeting up that night for a family dinner. So when I walked in the restaurant and saw all our dear friends and family, I was very surprised. Here are some fun pictures of the birthday:<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
We had a great night, enjoying a yummy dinner of halibut, crab cakes and salmon. The girls had my guests fill out a "How Well Do You Know Cindi" with some fun questions like where was I born, what is my middle name, how long have I been married/taught school and fun questions like that. The big winner of this game was my good friend and exercise buddy, Holli. So I guess during all those early morning walks I must have told her everything about me! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
After the party, we came back to the house for presents and my fabulous family surprised me with a video of 50 years of pictures and memories. The girls collected photos and Jordan scanned for hours. It was the perfect way to end the day and look back at my life. It is truly a treasure!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

Thanks to Bri, Lindsi and Kristi for such a wonderful birthday and for just loving me! It was the best. I love you all!!!</div>

Ten years ago today, our little family of five went to the Salt Lake Temple to be sealed together...forever....It was an amazing and special day to share with our family and dear friends who supported us through the years. Since then, we have been able to see our beautiful daughters marry in the same temple... </div>

5/19<br />
On this very day, at 1:00 in the afternoon, 30 years ago, I married my best friend! Honestly, it doesn't seem like 30 years have gone by. I look at our wedding pictures and I think, that's still us, we look just like that today!<br />
<br />
As I reflect on our years together, I am so blessed to have Bri by my side for all these years. He held my hand as I brought our three beautiful children into the world, supported me when I went back to school, listened to my endless hours of stories, never got upset when I came home with a dent or two in my car, and doesn't mind when I wake him up because I can't sleep. He has put up with my odd restaurant ordering and my obsessing and worrying about anything and everything. And yes, along the way, a few rough bumps in the road, but no matter what we always knew that we belonged together. Then, now and forever....<br />
<br />
It started with us, then along the way we were blessed with Lindsi, Kristi and finally Ben. We have added two great sons-in-law, and the two cutest grandsons ever! It's been an amazing journey and I can't imagine my life with anyone but Bri.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
And so I thank you for 30 years of loving me. Happy Anniversary honey! I love you and here is to 30 more!!!!Cindi Pugmirehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02881567478214085449noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3037802438256621860.post-2080908612977313972012-03-12T18:56:00.005-07:002012-03-12T19:17:19.230-07:00He's Here...Welcome Diesel Jordan Stephan<div style="text-align: center;">This is a post that is long overdue!

I have never seen a more loving and devoted mother!</div><div style="text-align: center;">3. She loves family and is always the one to plan our extended family Christmas party. I know it would have died a long time ago if it hadn't been for Lindsi.</div><div style="text-align: center;">4. She is a loving sis to Kristi and Ben. She has such a special bond with her sister and I know they are the very best of friends.</div><div style="text-align: center;">5. She is so determined; it doesn't matter what it is, she puts her mind to it and gets it done.</div><div style="text-align: center;">6. She is a fun person to be around and makes me laugh with her funny voices.</div><div style="text-align: center;">7. She is a great listener and always gives me good advice.</div><div style="text-align: center;">8. She is a fun workout buddy! </div><div style="text-align: center;">9. She is the best daughter and I love her and am so blessed to have her in my life.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">So baby, Happy Birthday and enjoy all that this year brings!
