July

Ok so this is getting just pathetic, and I really need to get my tushy is gear and get some things posted on here. So here is a start....
The middle of July we went down to CO to see some of Chas' family. We had such a great time and the kids LOVED playing with their cousins. They swam most of the day in the ditch across the street from Vovo's house and the rest of the day at riding their bikes in the church parking lot right beside the ditch. Talk about a fun place to visit! Chas built a chicken coop for his Mom and Dad and it is a pretty posh(sp?) chicken coop! He did a great job on it. I just hung out and watched the kids play, it was such a nice break.



One of the nights we went out to Cord and Mandy's cabin in NM, talk about beautiful!! WE loved going out there. Cord takes his cows out there for summer pasture, I told Chas that we might have to go there every spring and help him, it was awesome!


Chas and Beckett loving the fresh air and wide open spaces!

All the cousins who went with us out there

Isn't he the cutest little cowboy you have ever seen?

Here is the cabin and it really is a cabin, no electricity, running water or any conveniences like that. They have a propane water heater so they can shower and propane lanterns. Cord comes up here and works during the week, what a nice getaway!






Here is our other little nephew Casen, he is the happiest little guy and adorable too.

The kids sure loved riding on the 4 wheeler with Vovo. They can ride their ATV's in town! What a treat! So we rode all over!


WE drove down through Utah and got to see some of our good friends from our school days in Provo, it was soooo wonder ful to see them again. WE had a great time catching up and enjoying each others company. Thanks everyone for coming! (We are coming down again in Nov for my sisters wedding so we will have to get together again!)

Brooklyn or Emree?

Brooklyn or Emree?
Just thought you all might like to see how much Brooklyn and Emree look alike, its kind of scary actually! Especially that Emree wears all the clothes that Brooklyn used to wear, I better make sure I get the right name to the right picture in the scrapbooks...well photo albums anyway. This is Brooklyn when she was 10 months old!

First day of School!

Next to my kids this is my pride and joy, I love working in the garden! Chas likes it too, he doesn't have to weed! Actually he always takes care of the kids while I spend time there. It's so nice!

Funny Story 1

Well I haveto share this funny story about Brooklyn. There is a little girl in our primary who got her appendix out shortly after she was baptized and showed Brooklyn her scar, so here is Brooklyn's conversation with me the other day. Brooklyn: "Mom I don't think I want to get baptized." Me: "Why not?" Brook: "It's too scary." And I'm thinking she loves the water, what is the problem? Me: "Whats scary about it?" Brook: "I don't want to go to the hospital and be cut open after I am baptized." I started laughing!!! "You think everyone has to be cut open after they get baptized?" Brook: yes, Jenny did and she even showed me her scar. So I had to explain to her that that was not part of getting baptized, it just happened that it was close to the same time with Jenny. I thought it was so hilarious, you never know what your kids are actually thinking!!

What a handsome boy!
