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!

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!
