Look out! It's a naked slip-n-slider...

Well we had a BBQ with some friends the other night and thought it would be fun for the kids if we put up the slip-n-slide. Well to no surprise, it was so hilarious when the Tal man decided it looked fun to go naked! I hope you all enjoy this video as much as we did! haha!

4th of July



Maylie's Blessing

England girls week in Vegas! It was a blast!

Talan turns 2

Sand Dunes

This last weekend we decided we should go on a little trip with the trailer. So we ended up at the Dunes. It was my first time and now I can't wait to go back! It was so much fun!

My baby sis!

I can't believe my sis is all grown up and so beautiful! She is a senior this year and I don't want to miss anything she does, so when she got asked to the prom I was so excited to go and watch! (for you that don't know how Tooele does it, you probably are thinking I'm weird, but They have made Prom such a big deal that the whole town is involved! They hold it at the State Capitol and do this big dance thing. It is amazing!) I took my girls and Mckynlie thought she was at a princess ball!

Easter...A day with Family

Easter is always so much fun! I always look forward to my amazing mom's dinner and this year i wondered how she was going to pull of the Easter hunt with 12 grand kids! She has this thing she has done for years (she lets her grass get really long, then the day before she cuts big circles for every kid to hunt in.) This year she had 12! It is so much fun- she always out does herself:) Thanks mom for an awesome Easter that my kids will never forget!

Our 3 kids...(WoW...3!)

Our #1 Princess...Kyner-Lyner

Kynlie has been our little princess for 31/2 years now and never lets us forget it! She is so sweet with a sassy edge and we love her so much! She is the best big sister to Maylie (not so much to Tal...But come on, the kid bites her! haha) No she loves him too! Kynlie is such a big help to me, Maylie always has a binky in her mouth, even when she's not crying! But Kyn warns her that there is a Binky fairy and one day she must give them up! She keeps us laughing and we are so blessed to have her!




Oh man! #2...The Tal Monster!
He is the cutest little Monster! When he was a baby, we thought we were so lucky to have such an adorable, sweet baby, but then came his first birthday and it was like over night, someone switched me kids and took my angel baby! He is crazy! But then after all the bad crazy days, you get good days where he is sweet, and so loving...and that's why we keep him around! and plus he is so cute!


And now #3...Maylie Monkey!


We were so shocked when we found out we were getting another baby, I was not ready (but who ever is for #3?) Then when we found out it was a girl, I got so excited! I have always wanted Kynlie to have a sister! My sister Whit and I are so close and I wanted nothing more for Kyn than that! Maylie is such a good baby! And we don't know what we would do without her. Now that she is here and we fill so complete as a family! (um ok, so going to the grocery store and things like that are way out of the question, but what can ya do?) and as for now, no babies for awhile but we say that, then Oops!

Maylie Norma England


February 23rd @ 11:20 a.m.


6#'s 11Oz's and 20 inches long



Well after wanting her to come so bad and saying "I'm done" a wmillion times a day, Maylie thought she would grace us with her presence 2 weeks early! I didn't believe it when I was sitting up in bed timing my contractions and wondering, Is this real labor? I never went into labor with my other 2, so I had no idea what to expect. When I finally woke-up Dust and called my Dr. I still had a hard time thinking this was real. But when e got to the hospital and they said "you will have a baby by lunch time!" WOW...All that shot through my mind was, I'm going to be a mother of 3!


So now here we are as a family of 5 and enjoying every moment together. It is so great to have this little one finally here and to see the love that my other 2 kids have for her. They can not get enough of her. I have the best little helpers in the world. I get a little scared with the Tal monster, he brings a whole new meaning to "love her to death!" But Kynlie is so sweet and loves to give the baby eskimo and butterfly kisses. Every morning she wakes up and asks to have snuggle time with us 3 girls. It is the best feeling in the world! I couldn't be happier with the 3 most adorable kids and the best husband ever!

Crazyness! But I'm still a blogger!

So all of you probably are wondering what the heck has happened to the England bunch... Well we are all still alive and doing great! The holiday thing's have keep me so busy that I have kinda forgot that I am a blogger! Our Thanksgiving, Christmas and New year was awesome and I'm so happy to say its all over! Now we are looking forward to meeting our new baby girl, Maylie monkey(as Kynlie says) in 7 weeks! So please forgive me! I will try and keep you all posted! We love you all and hope you all had a great holiday and a happy new year!
-Also, We are going private soon so please leave me your emails.

What sis doesn't know, can't hurt!

So Mckynlie is starting to learn that her little brother wants to be just like her! She is in love with Sponge Bob and had to have these slippers, well not thinking Talan would even notice, I bought just one pair and I have regreted it! I guess he loves "Bob" too! Every time she takes them off, the fight is on! So the other night Kyn was playing at her Grandmas and here came Talan from his sis's room with this huge smile and the Bob slippers on! If Kynlie only knew!

This last week in 1 word... CRaZyFUn!

This last week for us was nuts! It all started with the first thing, "WhiTe TRaSh/REd NecK" Halloween party at the England's. It was a blast! My husband, I must say has some of the sexiest legs I have ever seen! And that MUlleT really brought out his eyes! Everyone dressed-up and that was shocking, But I think everyone would agree, that the party was a blast!

2Nd thing, Dustin's brother Brandon was in town with Megan and their little guy Maddax, so we thought it would be fun to do the PUmpKIN WaLk as a family. It was fun to have the kids together and to see how jealous Talan gets when Maddax has Papa's attention.

Then the 3rd thing, there was DAnCe! I don't know how many of you know, but I'm Back teaching at the dance studio where I took dance for 18 years. It is so much fun to be back in the swing of things and doing what I love. The Class before Halloween, everyone comes in costume and the day includes a cat walk runway show, as well as dancing in the dark with the strobe light. I think us teacher's had more fun than anyone!

Then the 4th thing...HAllOWeEn! It was so crazy, as every year is...Carving pumpkins and Talan pooping out all the seeds that my mom or I never saw him eat, Then HaLLoWeEn NiGHt, Pushing your kids to wear these silly costumes that they hate and cry about all night, family everywhere wanting to see you, candy that makes your kids bounce off the walls, and the black hair dye! Talan was so mad! But by the end of the night we are all so glad its over, but sad at the same time. A very bitter sweet feeling!

Then there was one more CrAZy thing... On Tuesday night a bunch of us friends and the kids went to dinner, well during dinner Dust says "How hard will it be for you to get a sitter for this weekend?" I looked at him and said why? And he tells me we're going to South Dakota to hunt Pheasants. As he tells me how excited he is about this little get away I started to get excited myself, so Whitnie my sis was our waitress and she said she would keep them for the weekend (thank goodness!) I couldn't believe we were going hunting so far away! But I guess that's what happens when your father-in-law is a Private piolt with a plane. And the best pilot at that! Dustin's mom, dad, brother Cody and I went and stayed at a family friends house who had their own huge field for hunting. It was so much more excitement than I ever dreamed! And I have to say, I'm kinda proud of my hunting skills!... I thought I would break down and cry the first time I ever shot and killed something alive, but i didn't and it was awesome! The first day I had no idea what I was doing and just let Dustin and Cody take down the birds I missed, but by the 2nd day I got 2 birds all by myself! My hubby was so proud of me and now I guess I'm invited to go hunting with Cody and him everytime! I can't wait cuz loved it!

Our New Home

We have been in our new home for about 9 months now and are loving every minute and every memory! Alot of our friends live far away and have never made it out to T-town and always ask me to email pictures of the house, so I thought this would be a good way to show you all, But I still do expect you to come visit! I still need to take pictures of the rest (Kids rooms) And I will shortly.






Thanks to all the help from Dustins friends, We built alot of it ourselves.

Game day at the U of U

The game was so much fun! Alot of Dustins family went and I couldn't have done it with out them! Dust was gone deer hunting so I thought I had no help. But I wasn't too worried when I found out that Uncle Cody was coming. He is such a big help! The U won, so that was awesome and as far as the half time went, Kynlie did awesome! She had so much fun and wants to be a cheerleader more than anything! Thanks Chan!

U of U Cheer Clinic "Future Cheerleader"

Last Thursday Mckynlie attended the U of U Cheer Clinic with her Aunt Chan. Chantel is a cheerleader this year at the U and she asked me if I would let Kyn come do the clinic and then have her perform at a game. I was a little nervous with how young she is, and I thought she would probably freek being out on that huge field. Well I was so wrong... She had a blast and is still talking about it! At the clinic she made little friends quickly! They were all older that her, but if you know Kyn, she is all about the older girls! They all mothered her and made sure she was doing what she needed. It made my job easy! And Talan had fun too. He was so proud of His big sis... she would be out there dancing and he would run to her and give her loves and kisses. It was so cute! He also thought it looked like so much fun, and every chance he got, he join the team! Aunt Chan and Kyn...

The little Friends...
Gotta have the U fingers!



This is all Talan wanted to do at the clinic, Join the dancers! Don't tell his Dad!

Pumpkin Patch With Grandma Carla

For the last few years my mom has had this fun family gathering at the Pumpkin Patch. We all get together for Pizza at her house, then we all head down the street to go pick a pumpkin.

Fall is here!..."Gardener Village"

So this year My mother-in-law had a great idea to take the kids to Gardener Village. She had told Mckynlie all about the witches that were there, so all morning when we were getting ready she kept asking me what they look like and what they say. I told her they had big green noses and said "hello my pretty." She thought that was the best, she just died laughing! She could hardly wait! But she had to, My sister-in-law Chantel had another good idea, to eat at the CheeseCake Factory! Kynlie was ok with this, because lets just say she takes after us girls and loves Chocolate Cake! It was the best! I'm kind-of glad the boys don't care for it as much as us girls, because we decided it would be our place from now on and I'm ok with that! So we finished up lunch and headed for the witches. And to make things so much better, we were pulling in, and we noticed they had pony rides! Kyn could hardly stand to wait, but Talan was sorta freeking (I don't think he will like santa this year!) He was a big boy and stayed on the pony, but everytime we would make the turn and he saw Grandma and Aunt Chan he would beg and reach for them to save him! It was so cute!So All in all the day was awesome and the kids loved everything! We are making this a yearly tradition!

Chicago,The Bears Game, He loves me!

This year for Dustin's birthday I did something out of the ordinary... I planned a trip. Dust has always loved football! His favorite team has been the Chicago Bears for as long as he can remember. So I thought of a great idea... a surprise trip! And thanks to the help of my brother Dusty, It was amazing! He was so surprised, but he did say "wow, how many hair cuts did this cost ya?!" And lets just say, I'm so thankful for the rule... "Whats yours is mine and whats mine is ours!" He bought most of the trip! haha. What can you do? But it was awesome! And He did say that if he would have known how much fun it would be, he would have got it himself. So I did good. And sorry girls, I guess I'm wife of the year! And now we want to go back every couple of year. Happy Birthday Babe. I love you so much!

Happy 18th Whitnie!!

SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE? (2nd ROW!!!) WOW!!!

I can't believe my baby sis is 18! It is crazy! It was just yesterday that her and I were making up bestfriend songs and playing barbies together and now I can truly say she is my very best friend! I love her so much and I don't know what I would do with out her! So with it being her 18th B-day, we had to do it up big... So I talked my mom into getting us SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE tickets. (Whit and I are crazy about the show!) And Oh my heck, we had 2nd row tickets...AMAZING! We could hear them breathing and see them sweat! It was one of the best days of my life! They kept looking at us and winking and pointing. (at Whit of course!) Happy Birthday Whit! I had a blast and I know Will Really blew you that kiss and don't worry about the midget you knocked down, she'll be fine! haha...memories!

Yes...There are others like us! We ran into Andrea and Hillary. Crazy girls!

Princess Mckynlie is 3!

I can't believe that 3 years ago we were blessed with such a beautiful little girl! These last 3 years have flown by with so many great memories!
After staying up the night before until 2:30 making the princess castle cake that only I envisioned and everyone thought I was nuts, We had a princess party with her little friends for the first time. Oh man what did I get myself into?! It was so crazy but also alot of fun. Then the princess party followed with a family party... and if any of you know my family, well lets just say very crazy! But I can't imagine anything with out them and either could Kynlie. We had a blast, but poor Papa Brad (Dust's dad), It must take him days after to get his hearing and thoughts back after our parties! haha
Thanks to everyone who was there and for making our memories of Mckynlie's 3rd Birthday great!

IT'S A GIRL!! (MAYBE NAMED MAYLIE??)

WE WENT IN ON TUESDAY AND TO OUR SURPRISE, WE ARE HAVING A GIRL! SHE IS ALREADY FULL OF SURPRISING US... STARTED WITH BEING PREGO (NOT PLANNING!) THEN KYNLIE WAS THE ONLY ONE SAYING IT'S A GIRL. EVERYONE THOUGHT A BOY WAS NEXT FOR US, INCLUDING ME! BUT I GUESS SISTER KNOWS BEST! WE ARE SO EXCITED! ALSO CONGRATS TO MY BROTHER BROCK AND HIS WIFE-AFTER 2 BOYS THEY ARE HAVING A GIRL ONE WEEK BEFORE OUR LITTLE ONE IS HERE! WHO KNOWS...MAYBE IT WILL BE THE SAME DAY?!

Talan's new FAVORITE thing

Dust has been starting his own construction company (England Construction) And his number one fan is Talan! He is crazy about all the "BROOM-BROOM'S" everytime he gets loose from the house, he heads straight out to the equipment. I swear his lips have to be numb all the time from all the "BROOM...BROOM" he does all day. He is all boy! We love it.

SUN-FUN-and PEEING in the POOL!

So this summer has been great and full of fun and surprises! I decided to put Kynlie in swimming lessons this year, but I was a little worried because she missed the dead line by a couple of months. So all the kids were older than her. I was so shocked to see her jump right in and start making new friends and having a ball! The first day I over heard them telling the kids the pool rules... The #1 rule was NO PEEING in the pool... Well lets just say she must not have heard any of that! We were out playing after lessons and i looked over at her and she had this weird face... I said "Kyn whats wrong?" She said "i'm just peein in the pool!" I look down under the water and she was pulling her swim suit to the side so she didn't pee on it! It was so funny and I didn't know what to say so I just laughed. Well I probably should have told her that that was wrong because later that day my sister in-law Heather and her boys were with us eating lunch and Heather said "oh my heck Chels, look at your daughter!" I looked over and there was my sweet little girl standing at the edge of the pool with her suit pulled to the side and had a stream coming out into the pool!! Everyone was rolling laughing! I ran out there and grabbed her and said "what are you doing? We go pee in the podie!" And she looked up at me with her big blue eyes and said "Well I not need to now! I just went in the pool!" What can you do? kids will be kids!
This is her PEE POSE!
