...

It's been a while. And I have no excuses. Maybe there isn't enough time in the day? I am not quite sure. I will just start going down the list...




JD and Tawni got married and she was beautiful and he looked alright...Both their receptions where awesome. I helped my mom and aunt make their cake it and helped with painting the decorations and cutting quilt pieces out. It felt like my kid was getting married. They live in Show Low and I love having them so close.




got to help brand out at the ranch (and by help I mean I stood there and squealed when a cow looked at me haha.)

Britt and Brook watching Brian and Ira Lynn chase a wild calf.



Brook's first solo ride. She did better then I did!




For memorial day Pops took Jake, myself, Tawni and Jd out on a "scooter" ride.

Awesome caves we found





Lloyd, Molly, Jake, Jd, and TK

My dad kept calling us banditos. We are totally awesome. Did I already say how much I love having them so close??

This guy had his 26th birthday on June 20th. He just wanted a chill day so we stayed in bed all day, went to church etc. He was working in the valley the whole week before, so I went and bought him a grill to surprise him with. Now he is grill crazy. I love it! Hardly any dishes.

A few other things that have happened. Our little Marissa moved out! She had been living with us since October and moved out a few weeks ago to the valley. It was really weird the first few weeks We didn't know what to do with ourselves. We sold our expedition and Jake's 4 door ford and are down to only 1 car :( I am not a big fan of having only one car for both of us, but I want Jake to find the perfect truck, so I just have to be patient. We are currently digging trenches for our sprinkler system so we can finally put in grass. We have to keep reminding each other that it's going to be worth it. It is a lot of work! I am glad we are finally getting it done though. That's it for now :)
