A Visit to Grandma Dentist

Cole had his very first dental check-up!

My step mom, Jen, just opened up a dental office conveniently located at the corner of 200 West and 1500 South. 1512 Renaissance Towne Drive in the Renaissance Center, across the street from Gold's Gym in Bountiful, UT. (http://newconceptsdentistry.com/) so we took advantage of that while we where in town visiting.

At first Cole wasn't quite sure what to think about the whole thing and really didn't want to cooperate but after he warmed up he did an excellent job! I was so proud of him!

brush, brush, brush



The hygienist let Cole hold onto the water sucky thingy.
He thought that was great



Grandpa decided he wanted to join Cole in the chair
Silly grandpa!



Way to go Cole!

50!

April 27th was the big 5-0 for my mom and luckily me and the kids got to be there to help her celebrate.

My sister, sister-in-laws and I threw her a big surprise party. The guest list included her parents, all of us kids, the grand kids, her brothers and sister and close friends. It was a great time mainly because of the great people and of course all of the great food.

I know this blog post is a bit late but...

Happy 50th Birthday Mom!
We love you!



Love the glasses!

Cole even got the chance to ride on one all by himself! He was so excited and enjoyed every minute!


Family Outing

On our April trip to Utah we went to the Living Aquarium in Sandy. Unfortunately it was also spring break so it was very crowded and with small kids that is hard because they want to be off and running and not being held or restrained by a monkey back pack. To say the least it would have been much more enjoyable had it not been so busy.


I love Toms face! *********Avery and her aunt Kerri

By the end of the outing we were all tired but especially the kids. This picture makes me laugh because you can see we have had enough and are just ready to get home.

In Loving Memory

Steven William Booth

1946 – 2010

SYRACUSE, UTAH - Steven William Booth, 63, died at his home Monday, May 31, 2010 after a 3 ½ year battle with cancer.

He was born October 23rd, 1946 in Union (now Midvale) Utah to William Harvey Booth and Beth LuDeen Burgon.

He was sealed in the Salt Lake City Temple to his sweetheart Susan Lee Hughes and she was still by his side 41 years later as he passed from this world. Steve and Susan were blessed with four children, Jeff, Jason, Kerri, and Tom. Steve and Susan had lived in Orem, Utah, Stanton, Virginia, Phoenix, Arizona, and Thatcher, Idaho before settling in Syracuse.

Steve loved his ten years on the Caribou Ranch in Idaho and spoke of it often. He felt like he was born to be a cowboy. Steve worked as an aerospace engineer at Hill Air Force Base and retired after 23 years.

Steve was a member of the Syracuse Trailside LDS Ward. He served in many callings including Stake High Council, a member of the bishopric, and many teaching positions. He excelled at teaching the Gospel. Steve served an LDS mission for 2 ½ yrs in the whole area of Japan.

He was a member of the Davis County Sheriff’s Mounted Posse for 20 years and enjoyed his frequent service outings with them on his “worthless” horse Murphy. He was also a member of the Utah Western Riding Club Association. Aside from his great love for family and friends Steve loved model trains, horses, and Ford Mustangs.

He is survived by his mother Beth, his sister’s Marne’ and Lori, his brothers Brian and Kelly, his wife Susan, his children, Jeff (Emma), Jason (Jeanne), Kerri, and Tom (Dayna) and 11 grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his father William H Booth and his brother Jerry.
