Hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend. We sure enjoyed the long weekend. Friday night I went to Mansanti's for Marcie's birthday cake and celebration. Saturday morning my mom and I went to the Petunia Factory to get flowers then that afternoon was Cole's baptism. Marcie and Josh had a get together after the baptism at the Comfort Inn then we headed to Mansanti's to hang out. Sunday morning we went to church and it rained most of the day so we didn't do much of anything else. My parents came over for pizza and watched the basketball game with us. This morning Mike got up bright and early to go fishing on the Big Hole. I got lots of cleaning & laundry done, then when Mike got home we worked in the yard, planted my flowers, cleaned the garage & got our patio furniture out. We accomplished quite a bit today. Tonight, we had my mom & dad and Marc & Ang & the kids over for dinner. We had quite the menu: barbeque chicken, shrimp, fish (that Mike caught today), lobster and pasta. And a yummy Oreo dessert that my mom made.
We actually have a short work week this week because we are heading to Boo & Tom's cabin sometime on Thursday afternoon. We can't wait to see them and be at the lake!!! Hopefully the weather will be warm, if not there will be several games of cards!!!
Have a great week.
By the way, something is wrong with my camera so that's why I haven't had pictures to share lateley. I can't live without a camera so I will figure out what's wrong with it ASAP!

Sports Arena Shootout
Hello there. We had the big basketball tournament this weekend ~ Mike's team took 2nd place and Krystin's team took 1st place. It was lots of fun and great to see all of Mike's basketball buddies. Mike worked non-stop on the tournament and it turned out to be a HUGE success. He's already excited to start planning the tournament for next year.
I also helped with the Butte High/Butte Central golf tournament on Friday. We lucked out and had a beautiful day. Bulldogs won again this year!!! It was fun but I am so glad it's over!
Marcie's baby is getting baptised on Saturday afternoon and then they are having a get together afterward. We are looking forward to spending the weekend with Marcie and her family. We talked about heading to the Big Hole on Sunday to hang out so hopefully the weather will cooperate.
Happy Anniversary to Marc & Ang tomorrow (May 19th).
We hope everyone has a wonderful and safe Memorial Day weekend. Enjoy your long weekend!

Graduation Party & Mother's Day weekend
Hello there. Happy Monday! We had another great weekend. Saturday, Mike & I picked up my mom & Aidan and we headed to Bozeman for my cousin Jimmy's graduation party. We left Butte a little early so we could do a little shopping before the party. Shopping was a success because I finally found a mirror for our new bathroom. Jimmy's party was very nice. I hardly recognized him when he walked in the room because he's lost 50 pounds since football season.
We didn't do much Saturday night ~ Austin spent the night so he and I watched "27 Dresses" while Mike worked on the brackets for his basketball tournament.
Sunday morning we got up and went to church and then picked up Ashby and headed to the May Fair at the Civic Center for a little bit. We had my mom & dad and Kelly, Krystin, Tocher, Miner and Austin over for dinner to celebrate Mother's Day.
Mike is anxiously awaiting his basketball tournament this weekend. He has put a ton of work in to it and I'm sure it's going to be a success.

Birthday party, bowling and lots of fun
Wow ~ another busy weekend. Friday night we went to Austin & Aidan's birthday party at the YMCA. There was about 30 kids at the party so needless to say it was wild. Everyone seemed to have fun so that's all that matters.
Saturday I took Austin, Aidan, Ashby & Tocher to lunch at Pork Chop John's with Marcie and Alyssa and then we all went bowling at the King Pin. It was Tocher's first time bowling and he LOVED it. He had to change bowling balls each time ~ he needed a different color! Saturday night we had dinner at the Mansanti's ~ very yummy (as always).
Sunday, Ashby went to church with us and then we just hung out at home for the rest of the day. We had my parents over for dinner ~ thai pasta (my favorite).
I'm heading to dinner tonight with Stacy & Kris to celebrate Stacy's birthday ~ I always look forward to time spent with them.
This weekend we are heading to Bozeman on Saturday for my cousin Jimmy's graduation party ~ he's graduating from MSU (I won't hold that against him).
Happy Mother's Day to all you mom's out there!
Have a great week.
Ashby hot tubbin with all the boys!

Alumni game, wrestling & more wrestling
Happy Monday! It is snowing here & I would like to know where the sun is!!
Last Thursday Mike and a few buddies went to Salt Lake to watch the Jazz/Lakers basketball game and then drove back home after the game. He got home at 6:00am ~ I told you he would do ANYTHING for basketball!!! They picked a great game to go to so that was good.
Mike has been extremely busy promoting his basketball tournament http://www.sportsarenashootout.com/
Friday night we went to Dillon and Mike played in the alumni basketball game ~ the old guys got beat!!! After the game we headed out in the big town of Dillon and it was great to see everyone. Saturday morning Mike ran the 5K race that was part of alumni weekend ~ I can't remember his time just know that he wasn't happy with it. We got on the road after the race to get back to town to watch Austin & Aidan wrestle. State Freestyle was on Saturday & State Greco was on Sunday. Austin took first and Aidan took third. After wrestling, we met Marcie, Josh and her family at the KC for pizza. It's so awesome that they live close enough to Montana to make frequent trips up here.
Sunday morning I was back at the Civic Center for more wrestling ~ Mike stayed home to watch basketball. Austin took first again and Aidan took 5th. I have to brag one more time ~ Austin took 1st at all 3 State tournaments this year so he's the 103 pound Triple Crown State Champ and not only that, he only lost once all season (in overtime) & every one of his wins was by pin. Very AMAZING!!!
"Two Butte Wrestlers completed their quest for the Triple Crown Award. Austin Lee and Lee Cannon earned the Triple Crown by winning all three state championships in all three styles of wrestling.They each won individual championships last month in Great Falls at the AAU State Folkstyle Tournament, the USAW State Freestyle Tournament on Saturday in Butte, and the USAW State Greco Tournament Sunday in Butte." (article from sports page in Montana Standard)
We're proud of both the boys and their success this season. I do have to say that I'm glad wrestling is over for the year ~ they are very long days.
From one sport to the next, Austin had a baseball game tonight and won. Aidan starts his games in the next week or 2.
Tomorrow is Aidan's 6th birthday. He and Austin are having their party Friday night at the YMCA.
Have a great week and hopefully we will have blue skies and the sun shining one of these days!

Hello there. Mike played in a basketball tournament this weekend in Townsend so we headed over Friday night for his game. Saturday morning Mike headed back to Townsend to play again but I stayed in Butte because I had a baby shower to go to so Krystin and I went to that. It was fun to have a girls afternoon and a couple beers. Sunday morning we picked up Aidan and headed back to Townsend again ~ Mike's team took 3rd.
My parents left for Las Vegas Sunday morning and will be back tomorrow night so we're dog sitting Calvin. Barkley really wants to play with Calvin but Calvin wants no part of Barkley and the cat of course doesn't want anything to do with either dog.
Mike and a few buddies are going to Salt Lake on Thursday to watch the Jazz and Lakers game.
We're heading to Dillon Friday night because Mike is playing in the alumni basketball game and then he's going to run in the 5K race on Saturday morning. We'll be back to town after the race because Austin and Aidan are wrestling here for the State tournament and I need to be back to watch them ~ GOODLUCK AUSTIN & AIDAN!!!
Have a great week!

Happy 10th Birthday Austin & Happy Easter!!!
Happy 10th Birthday to Austin and Happy Easter to everyone! Once again, it was a very busy weekend. Friday night we went to dinner at Lydia's with Kelly, Krystin and Leo and it was delicious. Saturday morning, Ashby and I went to Anaconda to meet Carrie, Luke & Addy for an Easter egg hunt at Washoe Park and then headed to the Haufbrau for lunch. Once we got back to Butte, Ashby and I went to the MAC to watch Austin & Aidan wrestle. Austin took first and Aidan took second. Austin's name was in the paper today "Butte big kid Austin Lee rolled through the 103 pound class". They both did awesome and as always I am so proud of them. Saturday night we had my mom & dad and Marc, Ang & the kids over to barbeque hamburgers. We are so excited that it's starting to warm up and we can start barbequing again. After dinner we headed to the War Bonnet for a surprise 40th birthday party for Ross ~ it was a very nice party.
This morning we went to church and then headed to my parents house to watch the kids and the Easter egg hunt. After that we came home and did lots of things around the house ~ inside and outside cleaning. It was so nice to get it all done. We had dinner at my mom and dad's ~ turkey, mashed potatoes, dressing & all the works! We had a great Easter weekend and hope everyone else did too.
Have a great week!
