PUPPIES!!

Here are the puppies....Aren't they cute!! They are very healthy and doing well since the fire. I have them listed and should have 2 sold by the end of the week. I am very attached to this batch so it is going to be hard to see them go but I cannot have 7 large dogs living in my house. However, This cute little girl is the runt. She had the umbilical cord wrapped around her paw and for awhile she acted like it wouldn't work. But I think she is ok. Kayebree is very attached to her and has been calling her Emily so she might have a home here.....

Christmas

I didn't realize I didn't take many still photos on Christmas. I took quite a few with the video camera though. I LOVE this pic of Cody cooking us breakfast. It's my favorite part of the day. He always fixes us a great breakfast. This year it was steak and eggs and fruit with Cottage Cheese. It was SO yummmy I couldn't eat anything for hours!! All in all Christmas was good considering we weren't in our own home. But our rental is nice!! I hope everyone had a great Christmas!! Thank you for everything...

Sleepy Dog

Christmas takes it out of Deuce too!! I stayed up til 2:30 am trying to finish everything. He was a trooper he stayed with me the whole time!

Fantasy at the Bay

On Christmas Eve we go to Willard to see the lights. This year our family decided to not go in the car and take the horse drawn wagon. It was so cold but it was very neat to be with my family and see the lights from a different view!

Hi there

For those of you who don't know my house started on fire Monday afternoon.
The only casualty was a week and a half old puppy. All my kids and Cody and myself are fine just a little stressed and freaked out!! We will however be out of our home for about 2 months possibly longer. The have finished removing all or my belongings today so they will start ripping out carpet and Walls and cabinets tomorrow! We have been very fortunate that will will be renting a house about a block away so I can stay close and keep an eye on things and hopefulyy kick butts if needed. I will be able to check my emails at the Newton Library so if you need to contact me I will be here once in awhile.
I cannot say enough great things bout my family and the wonderful people that live in this town it has truly made my life alot easier these few days!!
Thank you so much to all those that hve been here for us WE LOVE YOU ALL MORE THAN WE CAN EVER SAY!!!!!!!

Update on Kayedins tooth

Well, after an hour at the dentist office and new x-rays we found out that it wasn't a chunk of tooth it was actually just a large filling. So then the question comes....it's just a baby tooth and she will be losng it soon so pull it or fix it. But of course to decide that, we need x-rays....Before the x-rays we are leaning towards pulling it so she doesn't have to do the gas etc. After x-rays he finds that she is behind in her dental development and that bad little tooth isn't going anywhere. SO, we fill it. I had Breezy with me and he asks if she has lost any teeth yet cause she is getting close. "Oh, No" I say "they are in there tight" "Cody's too" I check his often cause all his friends are losing them left and right. So last night we are having apples and Breezy says mom I have a loose tooth. YEAH RIGHT, I think but go to feel just to make her feel special. HOLY CRAP!! Her bottom tooth is hangin on my a thread. Okay now how did I miss that one??? So of course I have to check Cody's again. They are going to be there till he is in 5th grade I've decided. Poor kid his little sister is going to loose a tooth before him......
I would be willing to bet her getting hit in the mouth with his bat this summer has helped this process along so it's Codys fault she is losing one before him!!! LOL!! Anyway I'll post some pics as soon as she loses it. YIPEE I get to play tooth fairy again!!

Thanksgiving

I guess I should add some pics from Thanksgiving
We did the family photos again this year and I am always amazed how large our family is. It has grown alot in the last 12 years!!


Also, I took a pic of my mom and dad and thier dogs and what they do best. You can find them here any night of the week. What did they ever do before the garage??

Lastly, Here is my adorable honey and my cute little boy!! Aren't they HANDSOME?


I took over a hundred pics on Thanksgiving with my family. The sad thing...I took my camera to the inlaws and never took it out of the bag...I AM SO BAD!!

Well, another holiday down about another dozen or so to go, including the birthdays and our Luau! Deep breaths...in...out...in...out..........

TWILIGHT MANIA!!

Ok not since Titanic have I gone to see a movie twice but I went on opening night with my baby sister and friends and the following Weds. I took Kayedin and Kayelene.
I must say the first time was a blast because of all the build up but the second time I actually got to see the movie. It is not as good as I had hoped but it was good enough. I know it will never measure up to what I have created in my own mind.
I hope they stop at the 3rd book tho cuz short of porn I don't think they could do the 4th.... What would they do with all the teenyboppers then???!!!

Well I am off to the dentist with Kayedin, she busted off a very large chunk of one of her molars on Thanksgiving. I guess she thought I didn't have enough stuff to spend my money on this month. I hope she enjoys her fixed tooth cuz that might be all she is getting from me this year!! (J/K) I am done Christmas shopping. (for the kids, now Cody, thats another story!!) Any ideas would be nice!

Happy Birthday Bubba!!

Happy 7th Birthday Bubba!! I cannot believe my little boy is 7!! Thats just crazy!!! Anyway we celebrated for a week with various parties and get togethers. We like to drag this stuff out forever you know!!! I think he enjoyed himself and he got some fun 'boy' toys so maybe he will leave Breezy's Barbies alone for awhile!!

Wendover baby!!

Last weekend we went to Wendover to see the Bellamy Bros with my mom dad aunt and uncle. It was Nov 8th my grandpas bday so me and dad played 8 on the roulette table all night I came home about 200 up and so did Cody. I can't say the same for my dad though. But it was alot of fun!! Hopefully we can go again really soon. I love spending time with my folks and uncle and aunt!!......The concert was AWESOME!! I highly recommend going to the concert hall if ever you get the chance!!!

Brantley Dawn

I finally got to see my great niece last week. Isn't she adorable. I just love chubby little baby toes.......Now NO laughing just cause I'm a great aunt doesn't make me old!!! I'm only 25 you know!!

Any given Saturday in the Fall

This is my aunt and cousin doin the grass drags in Malad November 1st. I love the fact that my aunt races. She is AWESOME!!

WOOOOHOOOO Skidoo!!!

Another Halloween over

Here is my rug rats for Halloween.....
Kayedin is a genie(I made her costume)
Kayelene is Pooh ( I made hers too)
Cody is Iron Man (bought cuz I am lazy)
Kayebree storybook witch ( same as previous)

I was SO behind this year I was sewin costumes Halloween morning. It is mainly because I was making pumpkins!!

I think Im a photographer now

I got 'hired' to take pics of my sister and her boyfriend for Christmas this year. We went to Petersen park in Tremonton. (I didn't know that place exsisted) Here is my favs of them and I like the park so much I took my kids back there 2 days later to take thier pics. It is so pretty down there I highly recommend it. Just don't take the high trail...poor Korbee (my sis's dog) was covered in burrs and had to go to the vet and the groomer. Needless to say I will photoshop my dog into our pics!

Look what I did!

I hosted Bunco this month and you know me I can't just go buy the gifts like everone else I have to torture myself and make them. But of course if I am going to make them for bunco I am going to make some for my mom and grandma and and aunt so I made 20. I hoped to never see orange paint again!!! As soon and my aunts sister and my sister saw them they wanted some so the following week I made 10 more.......Did I mention I don't like orange paint anymore???

I don't live in Cache Valley anymore.....im in the witness protection program!!

Hey everyone wanna see what my mother in law does while the guys are hunting???
Nice knowin ya cuz as soon as she sees this she is going to kill me!!

RUUUNNNNN!!!!!

Franklin basin 2008

We went up Franklin Basin for the Muzzleloader deer hunt this year and while the guys were hunting my sis in law and I decided to take the kids for a walk to keep them entertained. I took a TON of pics of the kids (they are so photogenic) One small problem we didn't wash their faces before we left. Who are their mothers???? They had a blast though and this is how they look when they are camping so here ya go!!
Also, The day we were going to leave to come home Cody shot this buck. He had been hunting everyday with his dad and bro and decided to go off on his own in the morning just really quick before breakfast. Not far from camp he shot this monster. Way to go Honey!! This is the first big buck he has shot with his muzzleloader. (you can thank me anytime for buying it for you!!!lol)

SLOW

Ok so I am really slow at keeping an update blog... But I have a good excuse I have started to scrap finally!!! I don't know how good of a thing this really is though. I have been to Hobby Lobby 3 times this week and spent an ungodly amount. I have attended a scrap club and had a stampin up party all this week as well! If they wouldnt have so much darn cute stuff for this hobby I would be alot better off. I tole paint too and once you have paint and wood you basically have it all but NO not for scrapbooking.
Anyway enough ranting on and on I have to get ready to go to the church for SUPER SATURDAY. They are making Halloween/Thanksgiving/Christmas cards and I just have to go I haven't done enough scrapping this week and I need my fix! HaHa!

School Pics

Kayedin 5th grade
Kayelene 4th grade
Cody Jr. 1st grade
Kayebree Kindergarten

I am too cheap to order pictures from the school. I know I know it benefits the pTA but I just cannot justify the prices it is ridiculous! So I took some pics of the kids myself this morning before they got on the bus...Here is my handy work..

Papa's truck

Yeah Peach Days!
I think the whole state of Utah comes to this parade and celebration

This is my dads truck at the car show isn't it purty?
He worked so hard to get it all shined up for this so I thought I would post some pics of it on my blog so you can enjoy it like we do!!

There was over 800 cars in the show!!

I have been really bad about taking pics the last few weeks but we really haven't gone anywhere lately. However we will be camping this weekend for the muzzleloader deer hunt so I will post some pics when we get back.

Cody has been gone though hauling deer hunters into the back country in Wyoming and he has taken alot of pics. His camera is being a huge pain in the rear so we will see if we ever get to download those pics! Guess I know what he needs for Christmas huh!!

Lippizaner Stallions

Last night we went to see the Lippizaner Stallions at the spectrum here in Logan.
I am the most unlucky person in the world but I actually won the tickets off the radio! All I had to do was be caller 4.
The only thing I seem to win is A&W combo meals when I know the country classic challenge!
These horses were amazing and I highly recommend seeing them if you ever get the chance. However you'll probably have to win the tickets they are a little pricey.....

Morning Glory

FINALLY!!

It has taken me years to get something to grow around here and now the morning glory plants are taking over! I love these flowers I had them all over my old place in Honeyville and haven't been able to get them to grow here! They are finally blooming. Hopefully they last a lil while because we could get a frost anyday in Newton!

1st day of school

Well it is official I am a stay at home mom with no kids to stay at home with!!
This is the kids at the bus the first day minus one. She is really not supposed to get on the bus at our stop but she rides her bike down here to get on with Kayelene. Its hard to believe only 5 years ago there was only 2 on this stop now there is 11 total!

Kayden, Cambrey, Kylee, Kayebree, Austin, Cody, Dallin, Britney, Kayelene, Kayedin and Kaitlyn is missing. Next Year it will be cut by 3 because they go to middle school. That is an even scarier thought. I am too young to have a middle schooler!!!!!!

BE rodeo

I finally made it to the rodeo again. It has been 8 years since I have been out there. It's kinda sad cuz I used to be out there everynite for Trail Trotters. When I was younger.
My family sponsers a chute and I was taking pictures for my dad. I thought this looked really neat with all the cowboys holding onto it. It was the only one they were doing it to.

Lava!! 08-19 & 20 2008

A few days before school started we (grandma and I) took the kids to Lava to the cabin and with everything there is to do up there they were mostly excited to play with the dominoes

We took the kids to town to play and go shopping we went by the river to see the people tubing. Cody kept getting too close so I had to get after him.. He was mad at me here and was 'trying' not to smile!!

This is by the pavillion that was named after me and Kelbys grandpa and my kids great grandpa. I love having the kids get their pics nest to this to help them remember what a great guy he was! Breakfast in the cabin....Food always tastes better in Lava!

Hopefully we can make it back up before snow flies!
