Chicago Concert

Travis and I went to see Chicago last night. It was a rainy night and we didn't get there early enough so we had to sit clear back up on the hill and it was very hard to see the concert. The person who opened for Chicago was awful so awful that Travis fell a sleep.

While we were at the concert I saw three shooting stars and a pretty rainbow.

Even though we couldn't see the concert we had fun and the music was great!

Happy Birthday Jenn!

Jennifer I hope you have the best birthday ever! It is sad that I can't be with you on your birthday. I really enjoyed having you live in Oregon with us. We had lots of fun together and shared many wonderful memories. I love you!

LonePine Park

We went to the water park for family night. We were the only ones there so it was lots of fun! Bryson was a little scared at first and soon enough he was laughing and having a fun time getting wet. Travis went through a couple time but not enough to get soaked like we did.

Another Day at Nana's

Lexie jumping for joy because she gets to spend an extra day with her Nana before going to California.

Pretty girl!

Lexie Helping Nana with Yard Work

Lexie loves helping Nana mow her lawn. Nana sits in the back while Lexie sits in the front and drives the riding lawn mower. I wish I had one! Lucky!

What a nice backyard!

Lexie is bringing me home some zucchini from Nana's garden, so I can make Anja's yummy zucchini bread.

Our Fun Day Together

Here we are at the Train Park

Travis has our son addicted to milk duds. This is Bryson enjoying one.

Bryson's friend Cameron turned one today.

Byson was caught getting into the baby wipes. He is such a cutie. I have so much fun with him!

This close up pictures is of Bryson trying to wipe my face with a baby wipe.

Fall is Here at Our House!

Every year at our house around July our tree's start losing their leaves. In August there is no hope for our yard nor our grass! This is what my yard looks like in the middle of August. Pretty sad huh? I guess it will give me an excuse to put my fall decor up early!

Bryson at Nine Months

When Travis is home he carries Bryson around in this backpack and Bryson just loves it!

Bryson is our little water baby! He loves to play and splash in the tub and water gets all over the place.

Bryson is now standing up to furniture. He tries to walk around while holding onto the furniture but he is still a little shaky.

Eight Facts About Myself

1. Out of all the girls in my family I'm the only one who loves being a brunette.
2. I'm like the cartoon character Elmira. "I want to hug you, love you and keep you for my very own." I'm a kisser! Travis and my kids are always getting attacked with kisses.
3. I absolutely love to laugh. Laughing lowers stress and helps work your stomach muscles.
4. I can sense things. I know somethings going to happen before it actually does.
5. I'm an optimist. Travis thinks that I'm a little too positive sometimes but like I said I can sense things and I know that everything happens for a reason and it will all work out in the end.
6. Say Cheese! I love taking pictures. If I didn't have a camera with me all the time I would be lost.
7. One of my favorite quotes; People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care.
8. I love having a big family! Growing up we had something called buddies. We would pair up and that one person we paired up with was our buddy. When there was a fight we would do everything we could to protect our buddy. I'm so blessed to have grown up in a big family. Even though there were times I didn't get a long with some of my siblings, in the end they were always there when I needed someone.

Brunettes Have More Fun!

We went to Carrie's house for a girls night at 7:00pm last night and we had dinner and makeovers. We first cleaned our make-up off and did a face mask and then took our before pictures. We wanted to get our before picture with no smile and that was very hard for me to do! After our mug shots we painted our nails and started the makeovers . We got finished with our makeovers and 3:00am just in time to go home and go to sleep.

I was so happy that my friend Lissa was able to come and hang out with us! I think this is the first picture of Lissa and Me together. We all had fun together last night and we plan to have another girls night soon!

Myth Busters

I was watching Myth Busters last night and this was the question the viewers had. " If I sneeze with my eyes open will my eye balls pop out?" The answer is no. It was very funny watching them on the show holding their eye's open while sneezing. The myth was busted! Your eye balls will not pop out if you sneeze with your eyes open.

My Friend Holly

Today my friend Holly and I went out in our yards and took pictures of ourselves. Someday I hope to get pictures of us taken together. I miss you Holly!

Lexie and Conner at Lagoon

Grandma took Lexie and Conner to Lagoon, here are some of their pictures. I was talking to Lexie and she said she had lots of fun until she started getting sick. A day or two after Lagoon Lexie got a fever of 101 and Grandma took her to the Doctor. The Doctor said she was sick with a sinus infection and gave her a prescription for antibiotics. Sounds like she is feeling much better. I can't wait to see her at the end of the month!
