Memories

8 Years ago we lost our mother, sister, daughter, wife and friend. We have grown closer as a family and love and miss her everyday. We are so thankful we were able to have her in our life and that we were able to have so many good and funny memories with her. We will never forget the time she beat up a boy at the Dairy Freeze for calling her Heidi Harry a** and Heather had to drag her off to get her to stop or the time she told her parents she went "snipe hunting" and tricked Amy but really they were in Cedar picking up on the boys at football camp. Alisha and her loved watching the Licence plate game on Game show Network and getting Heidi's favorite food Cluck-e-to's from Farm Basket. When Crystal lived with them for the summer she would blast "It's Getting Hot In Here" over the intercom at 7:00 in the morning to wake Crystal up and Tyler, who was 3 at the time, could sing most of the words. She had a wide range of music she loved from C and C Music Factory to Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. She could shake her big booty to any music you played, she even dedicated "I like Big Butts" to Jimmy at their wedding, really who plays that at their wedding!!!
We can't wait to make more crazy memories with you Heidi!

Heidi's 35th Birthday

Heidi's birthday was during our sister trip this year so we had her a birthday party. Each year we have a theme dinner. This year my mom did a garden theme.

We spent some time in the pool relaxing just like she would want us to.

We had a chicken salad sandwich and flower cupcakes.

We even set her a place just in case she wanted to join :)

We started the day off with Heathers YUMMY German pancakes and homemade syrup.

We love you Heidi and even though you are 27 forever we are going to keep giving you birthday parties because your 3 younger sisters want to always be your younger sisters.

Tylers Birthdays

Heidi loved to throw a party! When it was Tyler's birthday she went all out. She wouldn't let him have a normal kids party. She would invite everyone they knew and he would have so many gifts that he would get sick of opening them.
This was the last party she put on for Tyler. It had a fishing pond that was in the tennis court, and a pinata along with tables full of food and more presents then you could count. Tyler had a hard time letting other kids get prizes at the fishing pond and taking turns hitting the pinata.

Random picture

Heidi's first car. She found this car and took her dad to "look" at it and surprize she came home with it!! She could talk her dad into anything.

She loved to hunt. She was tough girl when it came to hunting. This is quite the family picture

Heidi and Tyler

These are some cute pictures of Heidi and Tyler that I found. This is Tyler's First Christmas. I can't believe she let him wear that hat!!

Heidi and Tyler liked to play at the park by their house.

Cute Family picture!!

Summer time at the cabin

We spent a lot of time together at the cabin. Our last sister trip that we had all together was at the cabin. No husbands no kids. We spent the weekend eating, playing cards, and just enjoying each other.

Stephensen family vacation

July of 2002 the Stephensen Family went on vacation together. They rented motor homes and went camping and fishing. This is Tyler fishing with grandpa.

They loved to play cards. Heidi and Jim would play cards all the time. Her favorite game was hand and foot. They stopped in St. George to see Tylers new cousin Malie on their way to go camping and Tyler was laughing so hard because he was sitting in the front seat with his dad while they were driving and when Heidi would walk around Jim would hit the brakes and Tyler thought it was so funny.

Heidi and Sara

Heidi and her friend Sara. I am not sure where they are. Heidi and Jim hung out a lot with Sara and her husband Terrance. I am sure there are some good and scary stories that could be told by them.

Blanket Heidi made

This is the quilt Heidi made for Jim for his high school graduation.

The Crazy Couple

Here are a few pictures we found of Heidi and Jim that we thought were really funny. This picture is the day Jim called and said they were going snowboarding. Heidi found the ugliest outfit she could and put it on. When he came in she said "okay lets go I am ready" Lets just say Jimmy wasn't going to take her anywhere looking like that so she changed.

This picture is a typical picture of them. Heidi wanted a cute picture and Jimmy wanted a funny picture. I am sure after this Heidi yelled at him and Jimmy was happy he got the reaction he wanted.
