2014 fathers and sons (May 2014)

And now for our Utah outing posts!

The boys again headed off for their traditional BYU Fathers and Sons sports camp. This time Kevin was traveling from a conference in Cali, so P and J actually got to fly on their own to Utah--which they quite enjoyed. Uncle Ryan was there to meet them at the SLC airport, as Kevin's flight was arriving just a few minutes or so after. 

And off they went to camp ... 

Enjoying time just hanging out and meeting around at the dorms.

Having fun with some friendly foot races:).

Enjoying a myriad of sports, including ultimate Frisbee.

Not exactly sure what sport this is, but had to include it of course!;)

Playing lots of basketball!!

The camp is primarily basketball focused. 
Posing for pictures with Tyler Haws and the cougar mascot (that I seem to have cut out of the image--oops). 

Doing drills--at least I'm guessing that's what's occurring here. 

Having fun hanging out together.

More b-ball!

A little football in LaVell Edwards Stadium.

Something of a dream come true for James, I'm sure. 

More football (you can see that J is right in his element).

And then an amazing Sunday at temple Square.
A special church service ...

Touring around at the Visitors Center ... 

And an opportunity to hear The Mormon Tabernacle Choir.

And then comes the last day of camp! Complete with winding up activities and games.
More football for James. 

Porter's getting in on the action as well.

And Kevin finishes up with a mix of basketball, football, maybe soccer, and tag:-). Looks exciting!!

I love that my boys and Kevin have this great bonding tradition! Brooks is sooo looking forward to getting to join in on the fun here in the next year or two!!

Number Five

I've been meaning to update our blog layout with the new family pictures we had taken in November. But since I'm not going to get around to it anytime too soon, I thought I'd include a couple with this post. Aren't ' they cute! The crazy part, though, is that as much as I LOVE these pictures (thanks to McKenzie Goff), they will already be outdated as of September. Here's why ... Dueck baby #5 Arriving September 24 th 2010

And to finish off April, we have ...  Earth-Day excitement! Porter's promposal to this sweet girl!! Which involved singing to her (with his bro. and buddies) in front of about 75 surprised onlookers. Happy Birthday to G-ma Loo:-) And sunny family day at the park ... Looks like the man bun is still going strong!;)

Baby Joseph

Another little miracle, Joseph Benjamin Dueck , arrived in our family September 5 th , 2010 at 3:23pm. Of course, every mom describes the birth of her children as miraculous--I know, I feel that way about each of mine--but in this case Joseph's healthy arrival really did turn out to be something of a miracle. But before I get into the story, I have some catching up to do since I haven't blogged at all about this pregnancy. So ... Here's me on the first day of school which was just two days before Joseph was born. Since I was taking pictures of the kids, James decided I needed one as well. I'm actually glad he did, because I had been meaning to get a picture of my baby "bump" for days if not weeks and hadn't gotten around to it. Of course, I thought I still had plenty of time to make it happen. And just very quickly, I have to throw out some highlights from this pregnancy which for some reason all have to do with Mae ... Mae telling me (during the first tri...
