TRUE or FALSE!!

My lovely daughter Rylee has told some people that I am expecting two babies.... If you are one of the lucky few that have heard this, it is False! I am not even expecting just yet. I was showing her some pictures of my friend Crystals babies that she just had and now she keeps telling me that I have two babies in my tummy. I try and try to tell her that this isn't true, but I had to tell people today that I wasn't. So, if she happens to tell you that I am expecting, would you kindly tell her, "NO, YOUR MOMMY ISN'T HAVING ANY BABIES JUST YET!!!" ? (: Thanks!

Weekend fun with family and such...

A week ago, Owen the kids and I all went to the Lake to get the wave runners working. Right before we headed to the lake, Rylee tripped and fell head first in the dirt, leaving this lovely scrape on her forehead.
Over this past weekend, some of Owen's family along with my sister Erika, came into town to enjoy the last warm weather at Powell. Most of them showed up Thursday evening really late. The kids and Owen all passed out waiting for everyone to show up.
My niece Elena kept covering her hair with the wet sand.

Bridger buried Rylee, Alora and Erika in the sand.
Tubing fun...

Our boat ride to see some fun cliffs.

We drove the boat down a really narrow slit canyon. The boat couldn't fit further down the canyon, so half our group decided to jump in the water to see what was around the corner. It ended up just ending about 20 feet back.


We hiked to the view of "Horseshoe bend" it was so beautiful!

kids pictures...

I took all three of our kids pictures this morning. I was sick of looking at the ones that we took over a year and a half ago of the kids.... Kodi isn't a baby anymore and BO and Rylee look totally different now!!! Anyway, I know I'm no professional, but I think they will do. What do you think?

This made my head hurt just watching!!!

Kodi has done this for as long as I can remember, she is such a silly kid! At the end of the video, I asked Kodi if she was getting sick and for some reason, it cut the part out when she stops, grabs her stomach and said, "ya!!" What a goofball! BO has to try it as well. (:

Just a few random things...

Josh & Laura's family visit
Owen's Brother Josh and his family all stayed with us for a few days after Labor Day. During that time, we went to the lake and swam did some kayaking and just had a good time catching up.


Kids Soccer
Rylee and BO had their first soccer games on Saturday. They have since then had 2 other games a piece and I think they are really starting to like soccer. Bo especially loves it, but I don't think that I was really worried about BO, soccer has a lot to do with BALLS!!! (:


BO's soccer team is called the "Tigers"

Rylee's team is called the "Tinker bells"

Kodi's hair cut
I just cut Kodi's hair for the very first time. It already looks thicker and so stinkin cute! I was really nervous to cut her hair since she really doesn't have any, but I only trimmed the bottom to make it look less like a mullet! (:

Rylee and BO had to have their picture taken too, so here they are! (:

Grand Canyon & Lake Powell.. What a weekend!

First off... Thanks Jana and Brad for such a great weekend again, you guys are awesome!

We started our weekend fun on Saturday when we headed to the Grand Canyon. We got DUMPED (rained) on for a good portion of the trip, but it made for a beautiful trip anyway.




This squirrel would let you get really close and it would sit still and pose for pictures.

This was actually a full double rainbow that was so bright and beautiful that we couldn't resist taking a few pictures of it!

All the kids, Brad and Owen would get really dirty, then run as fast as they could from the beach to the water. It was funny to watch!

Our little fish.
The guys worked to hard and long on this sand castle. I think they were more into it than the kids were! lol
