Christmas and New Years!!!

2012-01-10T13:12:00.001-08:00

We had a great Christmas this year it was more like a three day Christmas. My parents went to Green Bay for the Packers game Christmas Day so we had Christmas at their house on Friday night. Dallin and Trevin got a bunch of cute clothes and some fun toys, and of course their Christmas pj's. Then on Christmas Eve we had our party at Grandma Gladys' which was a blast like always. Lee worked Christmas Eve and Christmas day but he got off in time to go to the Christmas Eve party. Christmas morning we got up and woke both kids up at 4 a.m. because Lee had to leave for work by 5. Dallin got a Packers uniform a basketball and a leapfrog from Santa and in his stocking he had a dirt bike and some tractors. Trevin got some toys from Santa they must have been pretty good boys this year. Lee and I got the boys clothes and Dallin got a remote control 4-wheeler a cowboy hat and new shoes. Then me and the boys went to Lee's parents and had Christmas there and had breakfast. Lana got Dallin, Jette and Cash these horses that you bounce on and they all loved them that's all they did all morning and when we left dallin's head was wet from sweating so much from playing on those horses. Later that day we went to Grandma Colleens for lunch and hung out there for a little while and that sums up our Christmas it was busy and a little bit sad no having Lee or my parents around.

New years eve we went sledding with Lee's family and Dallin had a blast with all the cousins. Him and Jette would not get off the sleds and Dallin was so frozen and cried half the way home cause his feet were so cold they hurt. Trevin wasn't a big fan of being bundled up and out in the cold. He doesn't like hats and he doesn't care for being wrapped up so he can't move so his first sledding trip wasn't very fun for him. That night my parents watched the kids and Lee and I went to dinner and we came back and lit fireworks for Dallin cause he couldn't make it till midnight so we had an early celebration. Lee and I were going to go out with some friends but Trevin was not cooperating so we ended up staying home and were in bed by 10:30. Oh how things change when you have kids and can't even stay up till midnight it makes me feel old.

Christmas stuff and Trevin's 1st haircut!!!

2011-12-21T19:15:00.000-08:00

We have been very busy this month and been having a lot of fun. We went to see Santa and Dallin got to tell him what he wanted and he got a football to so he thought that was cool. We went to the light parade and thank goodness it wasn't very long because it was freezing, after the parade we went to Shane and Jessica's and had hot chocolate and the kids got to decorate cookies and they did a really good job. Then we had a Christmas dinner at Amber and Brad's this last weekend and after dinner we went on a hay ride and looked at lights and all the kids loved it. Then we went to Megan and Kellin's and played games and the kids stayed with a babysitter. We also did gingerbread houses at Lee's parents and they all turned out so cute. The kids thought it was fun for about the first 5 minutes and ate some candy then they were done so the parents had to finish them. Trevin got his first haircut on December 19th he is only 2 months old but he had the longest hair ever he looks alot more like Dallin now.

Brothers!!!

2011-11-23T20:54:00.001-08:00

Desirea Erhart took pictures of the boys for me and they turned out so cute. Dallin loved taking pictures with Trevin until he started crying then he didn't want him. Dallin is a little ham and would take pictures all day he loves it. He would pose all by himself and just smile forever he is definitely fun and easy to take pictures of. We are so lucky to have to healthy and cute little boys we love them so much.

Trevin's 1st bath and 1st Halloween

2011-11-11T13:27:00.000-08:00

Trevin is so funny he hated his sponge baths so bad he would just scream the whole time and now that he takes real baths in his little tub he loves them. Dallin loves to take baths with him and Trevin like that he does he just sits there and stares at Dallin it's so cute. Trevin also had his first Halloween we carved pumpkins at Lee's parents house and Lee did one for Dallin and Trevin. Dallin was a pretty good help this year too. When they were all done we took a few pictures and then Dallin picked Trevin's up and threw it so we ended up only having Dallin's. Other than that we have been riding the ranger and Trevin got to go on a ride before he was even 2 weeks old and Dallin and Lee have been going hunting or scouting a lot.

Trevin Wade Hamblin

2011-10-22T17:35:00.000-07:00

Trevin Wade Hamblin was born on October 11, 2011 at 3:38 a.m. He weighed 7lbs even and was 19 inches long. I can't believe our second little boy is already here. Dallin is beyond excited to have a little brother and he cannot get enough of him. Trevin looks a lot like Dallin just has a lot more hair. Lee is the proudest dad ever and has everything he ever wanted which was 2 little boys.

Dallin's 3rd Birthday!!!

2011-10-19T19:52:00.000-07:00

Dallin had his 3rd birthday party at the park this year. I can't believe he is already 3 it makes me sad. He got a bunch of toys and the whole family was there so it was fun. Dallin has been asking for a bike for probably 6 months and every time we went to wal-mart he would ride the display one around. So he was thrilled when Lee came walking over to him with the bike he has been wanting so bad it made his day and it was so cute. My mom also had a baby shower for me a few weeks ago so I had to put a picture of the cake it was so cute but those are the only pictures I got I have been horrible lately about taking them.

2011-08-31T13:42:00.001-07:00

We have been busy this month we went to the valley and Dallin had to get a set of golf clubs. Lee had taken him a couple of times and he loved it so we got him a little left handed set and he was the happiest kid ever. We have taken him a couple of times and he does really really good for a 2 year old. We finally got to go camping in New Mexico it was only a night but better than nothing and Dallin and Cash think they are so cool hanging out with their dads and going hunting. We definitely have our hands full with those 2. Lee and I went to dinner and Java's the other night and we usually bring Dallin but we left him with my parents so we could enjoy a nice quiet dinner, everyone there loves Dallin and they were all asking where he was so when they brought our check they brought a box that they wrote on and it had a cupcake in it. That kid is so spoiled and he knows it, but it;s so cute that they think of him even when he isn't there. Other than that we have gone to a few barrel races and Dallin loves that because he gets to ride Scottie which is his horse now he says so I guess I don't have one anymore. The other day he rode all the way from the rodeo grounds to my parents house I was so proud of him but it's crazy that he is already big enough to do that.

4th of July and Swim Lessons

2011-07-24T08:31:00.001-07:00

We had a crazy busy 4th. We went to a pot luck on Saturday for Uncle Tbone, then we went to the fireworks that night. I'm so glad Lee got to go cause he worked all weekend and worked the 4th night but they had the fireworks sat night so it worked out. Then my mom and I went to slack on Sunday morning and then off to Amber's for an ice cream get together. Then Monday we had the parade pot luck at Amber's then the rodeo and then Lee went to work. My mom broke her foot watering her flowers right before the rodeo and ended up getting surgery on it so we have been trying to help her a little. Then swim lessons started for 2 weeks in Show Low so that took up most of everyday. Dallin thought it was ok for the first few days and then he really didn't care much about it anymore. Well we lived through it and he didn't learn a single thing except how to not listen to your teacher but oh well he is little still. Other than that we have just been hanging out enjoying the heat cause it will be cold before long.

We got to watch the helicopters in Alpine that were fighting the fire it was pretty neat we were right by them.

The last month!!!

2011-06-17T15:59:00.000-07:00

Sorry but this kid either never has clothes on or he is so dirty he shouldn't have clothes on. We have been busy lately of course with the fire and being evacuated. We went and stayed in Pinedale at the Beshears cabin for about 10 days and it was good to get home. Other than that we have gone fishing been playing over at Grandma's and Grandpa's. Dallin got so dirty one day in Grandpa's garden he will be lucky if he has anything that grows. We went camping for about a day and the wind was so bad we came home and that was the same day the fire started so we probably won't get to go camping anymore this year. Dallin loves to shower with my dad and my dad always comes his hair and parts it right down the middle it is hilarious. We just went down to Phoenix and met up with Dru and Danelle and shopped for a few days we had a blast it was just like old times. Dallin went golfing with his dad today and he looked so cute in his outfit and Lee said he did pretty good golfing too.

Easter and fishing!!!

2011-05-03T09:10:00.001-07:00

I have not done anything on here in a while, we had a good Easter Lee was working so my mom came over and Dallin got his Easter basket. Then he hunted his two eggs that were left cause Maggie ate them all. He didn't think it was very fun anyways he was more worried about his bat and ball than anything. I didn't put very many pictures on here because he is naked the whole time so there weren't many to choice from. I swear that kid is naked 80% of the time. When my parents were in Deming a few weeks ago they found this bunny that sings a song and it says "I want candy, I want candy" so they brought it home because everytime Dallin walks in my parents that's what he says. He thought that bunny was the funniest thing ever and that was the only thing we herd for a week. We also went fishing with Grandpa and it was freezing like always but Dallin had a blast and even reeled in a fish by himself. He is so scared to touch a fish he just screams if you try and make him hold it. He better get over that quick.

Phoenix and the Zooc

2011-03-24T13:40:00.000-07:00

We went to the valley a few weeks ago for Lee's B-Day and my B-day. We took Dallin to the Zoo which he loved. He thought all the animals were so cool but I think he liked swimming in the pool the best. We went to the mall and did a lot of shopping and ate way to much food we had to get our fix of good food while we were down there so that's about all we did was eat. Dallin has to wave bye to Lee when he goes to work and in the picture you can see he has nothing on but his hat I'm glad no one drive by. Lee got me a new camera for my B-day and I love it and I think it takes really good pics.

Catching up!!!

2011-03-01T13:00:00.000-08:00

We have been very busy like always. Lee has been working a lot and we have been hanging out at my parents. Dallin loves to go to my parents and loves to go do chores with papa and ride around in the trailer behind the 4-wheeler. Dallin got to meet a guy that used to play for the Yankees and won a World Series with them, I know he has no clue now but one day he will think it's pretty cool. We have been going over to Grandma and Grandpa's a lot to and he loves to ride the ranger and play on the swing set. He has been obsessed lately with going to work like his dad so he carries around his dads lunchbox and keys. He has to go out to the truck with Lee and he has to drive him around the block so he thinks he is going to work it is so cute. Dallin loves to go shoot his bow with dad to and he actually is doing pretty good. He is a spitting image of his dad and that is pretty scary but he is definitely entertaining.

2011-01-06T08:29:00.001-08:00

Christmas and the New Year!!!

2011-01-06T08:18:00.000-08:00

We had a really good and busy Christmas. Santa Clause brought Dallin a truck and he was so excited. Poor thing hasn't rode it much cause it's to big for the house and we just got a ton of snow. He got a ton of clothes and toys from us and everyone else he is definitely spoiled. We had our Christmas Eve party at Grandma Gladys' and that was so much fun as usual. We went and ate everywhere and ate way to much. Then after the big snow New Year's Eve a few days after when it warmed up I bought Dallin a sled he calls it his "boat" and we went sledding at my parents. My dad pulled Dallin and I behind the 4 wheeler around the horse pasture and Dallin thought that was the coolest thing ever. The horses were out there with us and everytime we went by the would take off and run and he just laughed at them it was a lot of fun. We had to do that for a few days strait but now the snow is melting so the "boat" is put up for now.

Thanksgiving and Las Vegas!!!

2010-12-19T12:44:00.001-08:00

We had a really good Thanksgiving even though Lee didn't get to go cause he was guiding a hunt. Dallin and I went to Deming to the farm for a few days and hung out with everyone. We rode quads alot and went for an all day ride the day after Thanksgiving it was a lot of fun Dallin loved it. Then we just got home from Las Vegas we went to go watch the NFR. Everyone was obsessed Dallin he was so cute in his hat and buckle he got his picture taken a lot. He loved the rodeo and now all he wants to do is rope all day everyday hopefully it will pay off one day. Dallin also rode a sheep in Vegas and he hated every second of it and cried the whole time.

Saddle and Buckle

2010-11-22T12:39:00.001-08:00

We had our year end banquet for N.B.H.A. and Dallin won a buckle on Scottie. I won another saddle on Scottie and it meant so much to me to win another saddle on him. That horse is just amazing and it's so neat that Dallin gets to ride him and has won 2 buckles on him already so it's alot of fun.

Pumpkin Carving and Halloween

2010-11-02T09:24:00.001-07:00

We had a great Halloween this year and had a blast carving pumkins. We went over to Amber's to carve pumkins and the little kids got to paint a pumpkin and they loved that. Amber grew the pumkins at her house this year so it was cool getting to use the ones she grew they were good ones to. Dallin loved painting his pumpkin he painted himself just as much as the pumpkin and he thought it was so funny. All the pumpkins that we carved turned out really good they are getting better every year. Halloween day Lee was working so my parents and Dallin and I went out to lunch and then went for a drive in the mountains to see all the fall colors. When we got home it was time to get Dallin all dressed up for trick or treating. He was a cowboy imagine that, I knew his cowboy hat was the only thing he would keep on his head and I had everything for him to dress up so it was an easy call on what he was going to be. He had a blast trick or treating. We went to the trunk or treat and he was a little shy but thought it was so cool he was getting candy. Then Lee finally was home and got do go with us the rest of the night. Then we just went to Lee's Parents and my parents house and both grandma's houses and just hung out and ate alot of food at both our parents. All in all it was a good day and I think Dallin had alot of fun and now I have a ton of candy to eat which is not so good but oh well.

Hamblin Family Pictures!!!

2010-10-26T08:35:00.000-07:00

My sister-n-law took pictures for us a few weeks ago and they turned out awesome. Thank you so much Linde for doing that for us. I couldn't just pick a few cause they are all so good and I didn't even put very many on here. It was a fun day and the kids were pretty good.

Dallin's 2nd Birthday!!!

2010-10-24T20:46:00.000-07:00

Homecoming parade

Dad and Dallin watching t.v.

Dallin's birthday was on the 13th but we had a party for him on the 10th so he could have his party at the park. It was alot calmer this year than last and not near the mess so that was nice. Lee and I had a little party for him on his actual birthday we just sang happy birthday and let him blow a candle out and eat some cake. He got a ton of fun toys and tons of clothes. I still cannot believe I have a 2 year old. He definitely is all boy he never stops from the time he wakes up till he goes to bed he is busy trying to break something or playing mostly just making a mess. I love it though he keeps me very busy and I never ever have a boring day. We have been going to alot of barrel races and Dallin ran in Safford this weekend and won a little trophy and he was so proud. Other than that we have been going to all my nephews football games and just hanging out at home. Kyron and Kason have done so good in football this year they are a blast to watch.

New Kitty and 1st Belt Buckle!!!

2010-10-06T19:57:00.000-07:00

We have been very busy lately like always. Dallin got a new kitty and he loves it he carries it around like a football all day. If it survives Dallin it will be a good cat. He wakes up every morning and first thing he says is ''titty, titty" and points to the door its so cute. We went to Buckeye this last weekend for a barrel race and I entered Dallin and he ended up winning the buckle. He was so excited, he didn't know what to think of all the people clapping and taking pictures but he thought it was so cool. He loves to ride Scottie all by himself as long as we don't go very fast he just likes to walk. I think it is the neatest thing that he won his first buckle on the same horse I have run for the last 10 years it means alot to me. So good job Dallin and Scottie you guys did awesome!!! They had a little fire safety thing tonight for all the kids and Dallin got to sit in a helicopter and he thought that was really neat, I couldn't get him to get out of it. He got a fire mans hat and a balloon and a whole bag of coloring books and bouncy balls and stickers. Smokey bear and Sparky were there to and he wanted nothing to do with them he was scared to death. He was so scared I was holding him and he was trying to crawl out of my arms it was kinda sad but funny cause I don't get why kids are always so afraid of stuff like that. Any ways it was fun and I'm so glad they do things like that for the kids.

Family Pics!

2010-09-23T09:05:00.000-07:00

We got our family pictures done while we were in California. My sister-n-law did them for us and they turned out great I love them. Dallin wasn't wanting to take pictures he was to busy throwing sand but Linde still ended getting a few good ones of him. Lee and I bought aviator sunglasses for the beach and Kyron and Kason thought that Lees were so cool so they had to go buy some. They looked so handsome and they wanted to take a picture with all of them in their glasses I thought it was so cute.

The Beach!!!

2010-09-15T23:14:00.000-07:00

Well It's been a while my computer was broken for about a month and I just got it back and I'm just happy they saved all my computers. We went to San Diego at the end of July and we had a blast. It was Lee, Dallin and I and my parents and Luke, Linde and their kids. Dallin loved the beach and the sand he played all day everyday. He loves Kyron and Kason he thinks they are the coolest. I'm so glad he has them around he can learnt things from them and they are just great with him. Our trip to San Diego was not long enough but vacation never is but we had fun. We went to Sea World one day and all the kids loved it Dallin was a little scared of Shamu but we were really close and he is just huge and he really didn't liked getting splashed. We went out and ate a lot and rode bikes everywhere which I think was Dallins favorite part he loved riding around and watching everything. We got to watch the Sea World fire works every night from our balcony and they are always really good. Dallin tried to surf on the boogie boards a lot which was really cute I just can't believe he is getting so big and wanting to do everything the big kids do. he loved when Lee would walk beside him and drag the boogie boards down to the water it was so cute. He took a few naps on the beach and I loved watching him cause he would play till he just couldn't do it anymore. One day I didn't even realize it but Lee and Dallin both had camo swim trunks and a grey T shirt on so I had to get a bunch of pictures. Other than that Dallin just played in the sand a lot and chased all the birds he was obsessed that's all he did was look for birds to chase and he got pretty close to a few. I wish I had some pics of our house it was awesome and right on the water on the bay side,

Hangin with Dad!!!

2010-07-20T21:40:00.000-07:00

Dallin absolutely loves it when Lee is home, I don't even exist. He wants to do everything with his dad eat, watch TV, mow the lawn, shower and everything else. I think it is the cutest thing ever. It's the saddest thing when he does have to work because he hates it when dad leaves. When Lee works nights it's like Dallin knows when he gets home cause he wakes up at like 6 and just layes there till Lee walks in then he just looks at me and smiles cause he is so excited. Lee likes to work out and Dallin doesn't let that happen he thinks he has to do exactly what Lee is doing so cute.
I love how he is so chilled out with his legs crossed.

4th Of July

2010-07-11T22:45:00.000-07:00

We had a really good 4th it was a lot more layed back this year than it has been in a while. I ran in the slack on Friday so I didn't have to do the rodeo thing on the 4th this year. We had breakfast at my parents then we went to the parade with Lee's family. Then we went to the rodeo and then Lee had to go to work that night. I went to dinner with some of my friends that were in town that night and watched the UFC fights and went home and went to bed it was a long day but all in all another good 4th.

Family Reunion!!!

2010-07-04T08:56:00.001-07:00

We had our family reunion a few weeks ago and it was really good to see everyone. We have family all over the place so we hardly ever get to see each other, and it was good to get our kids together because they don't even know their cousins which is really sad. The kids had a blast at the farm there is a huge pond that they love to swim in and fish and the little kids had a little pool they could play in, that was nice and much easier to watch them rather than the big pond. Everyone has always loved to go to the farm because you get to swim and fish and ride 4-wheelers. The kids rode the 4-wheelers all day everyday. We went to the needles eye it's on the mountains right behind our farm and we rode the 4-wheelers to the mountains then we had to hike to the needles eye and it was much harder than it looked like it was going to be I was worn out.

Yankees Game!!!

2010-07-01T08:29:00.001-07:00

We went to a Yankees game a couple of weeks ago with some of Lee's family and some of the guys he works with. We had one of the suites and that is definitely the way to go to a game especially if you bring your kids. Dallin could run around and eat as much as he wanted. I even brought his stroller so he could sleep when he got tired so it was nice not trying to keep him in a seat cause that is impossible. Dallin and I got right behind the Yankees dug out and we were so close to them and every picture I took turned out blurry, so I think I need a new camera it made me so mad cause I could have gotten a lot of good ones. The Yankees lost that game so we didn't pick the best night but it's still fun to go watch them. My dad was swinging Dallin and he fell asleep so he taped towels to the swing so he wouldn't get sunburned.

Dallin, Jette, and Cash. Dallin is 1 year older then both of them and he is the smallest.

Emergency Room!!!

2010-06-19T20:47:00.000-07:00

My poor little Dallin was in the E.R. from 3 this morning till about 4:30. Lee was working nights and I love to cuddle my little boy when Lee is not there and I just don't like being alone so I always let Dallin come to bed with me around midnight usually. I went and got him and put him in bed with me like always and put a pillow beside him so he couldn't roll off or so I thought. A little before 3 I heard a big thud and then Dallin started screaming and I knew he had fallen off the bed. I reached down and grabbed him and layed him on me so he would stop crying, and I felt something wet on my shoulder and I touched it and could tell it was blood. I got up and went into the bathroom and his whole face was covered in blood and it freaked me out. I turned the water on in the sink and was trying to wash the blood off to see where he was bleeding from and it was bleeding so bad I couldn't tell. So I grabbed a towel and put it on his head and called my mom to see if I should take him in and she said "yes, take him down there now". So away we went to the hospital. They got us right in and were very good with him and I was so glad. It didn't take them long to get it cleaned off and put staples in his head it was the saddest thing ever. He was so scared and cold from them washing his head that his little teeth were chattering and he was just screaming and reaching for me. That was the worst cause I couldnt pick him up and hold him By the time my mom and dad got there he was already done we were just waiting to take x-rays to make sure he didn't fracture it. I finally got to call Lee and tell him what was going on and he left work right away and got to the hospital at about 4. We got home and gave him a snack and he started jumping and doing cannon balls on the bed so he was feeling just fine. Sorry for such a long story but it was the scariest and saddest thing I have ever seen I have never see that much blood before. My whole bathroom was covered in blood and me and Dallin were too. These pictures don't show anything really but it was so bad. He is doing really good just back to normal and crazy he doesn't even know he got hurt.

Grandma bought all the grandkids 4th of July sandles and the ones that were there had to put them on so I had to get a picture I thought it was so cute!

Company Picnic!

2010-06-18T21:57:00.001-07:00

We had a company picnic last weekend and it was a blast. Lee couldn't go because he was working so I went with my mom and sister-n-law and her kids. It was a little bit cold especially when we were swimming thank goodness it didn't last long. They had a ton of stuff for the kids to do slides and rock climbing and games. They has cotton candy and popcorn it was just a lot of fun for the kids. The food was really good I didn't get any pictures but Dallin was a mess of course. Dallin loves my nephews Kyron and Kason he would hang out with them all day everyday if he could he thinks they are so much fun and I love it cause they just take him and I know I don't have to worry about him. After the picnic and everything was over all the kids and us were worn out and Dallin crashed as soon as we got in the truck to go home. We have also been potty training a little bit and he is doing pretty good. I'm not getting serious until we get back from San Diego in July because it would be hard to get to a bathroom fast when were on the beach so we will see how it goes after summer. Reading a book and going potty!

Long day!

These two are so funny they either love each other or they are fighting I guess that's what cousins do.

Very Long Post!!!

2010-06-04T21:55:00.001-07:00

We just got back from Roosevelt Lake this week we had a blast. We went with Lee's boss and a few other people that he works with. It was Dallin's first time on a Boat or Jet Ski and he thought it was the coolest thing ever. He was so cute when we went on the water for the first time I think he was a little confused he kept looking at the water then looking at me and laughing it was so funny. Lee and Scott went carp fishing a lot with their bows then in the middle of the day we would go out and tube and knee board and just hang out. Dallin thought he had to drive the boat and the jet skies and of course he wanted to fish with dad and shoot his bow.

We also had to go down to the farm a few weeks ago and when we got home we had to go pick up our little Boxer puppy and Dallin was so excited he loves that dog to bad we just sold it I wanted to keep him he is so stinkin cute.

Dallin and the girls

A few weeks ago we went fishing with Lee's dad and Dallin had a blast fishing with Grandpa they were buddies all day.

Early Mother's Day!

2010-05-08T09:59:00.000-07:00

Lee has to work on Mother's Day so he took Dallin and I up to Greer. He got us a room and it was so nice because there were ponds right out the door so him and Dallin fished a lot which was fine with me because I got to sit around and relax it was really nice. We went out to a nice dinner and just hung out for a few days. Dallin loved fishing and he thought he could do it all by himself which was kinda scary. They caught a lot of fish and Dallin liked them in the water but he would not touch them he was so scared. We also found out we are having another baby so we are so excited about that and can't wait to find out what we are having.

I still have 3 puppies for sale if anyone is interested.

Puppies, Puppies and more Puppies!!!

2010-04-27T13:17:00.001-07:00

I have been very busy for the last month. I took in a Mom Boxer that had 5 puppies that were 2 weeks old. It has been a lot of work and also a lot of fun to see them grow up. They are so stinking cute and I sold one and she went home yesterday and I was a little sad. The little runt loves Dallin and he carries that dog everywhere he will pick it out of all the puppies every time, it's going to be hard on me when that one leaves for sure. The other little puppy Allie that we got in February is getting big and here and Dallin have a blast wrestling with each other. Lee was not to happy that I took all these puppies in but in the picture below you will see that he doesn't mind it near as much as he says it does. My good friends Chuck and Deanne from down in the valley gave Dallin this cool puzzle mat thing that is so soft.

Dallin and his favorite little puppy!

Easter 2010!

2010-04-08T14:11:00.000-07:00

We had a really good Easter. We colored Easter eggs a few days before Easter at Lee's parents. Then we had an Easter picnic at Brad and Amber's on Saturday and the kids got to hunt Easter eggs and just hang out and play in the yard. Then Easter morning we got up and Dallin got his Easter basket and went and hunted Easter eggs. Dallin loved hunting Easter eggs after we showed him what to do then he had a blast finding them and putting them in the basket he thought he was so big. That night we went to dinner and Luke and Linde's and got to hang out with everyone. My brother and Lee were throwing Kali and Dallin in the air it was so funny they loved it, and they were going really high.

2010-03-29T21:40:00.000-07:00

We have been pretty busy the last month that's why I haven't done anything on here in a while. Lee had a birthday in February and I had a birthday in March. Lees best friend from high school was in town so we got to see him a few times. I went to Phoenix with my mom to go do some summer shopping. Then last weekend me, Amber, Megan, Aleece, Kenzie and Ashton all went to the valley for a girls weekend even though we all had our kids. It was a blast we went shopping, alot! We took the kids to a neat play place its called Kamatsu Island and they all loved it, even the little ones. We went swimming and just enjoyed the nice weather for a few days. It was so cute Dallin and his cousin Braylen were wrestling one night in our room and they just could not quit laughing. We also have been hanging out alot at my sister n law Linde's. Dallin loves to hang out with the boys. Other than that we have just been hanging out and going to the park every nice day that we have.

The boys!!!

How cute is that.

Lee's B-day!

Oh my!!!

2010-02-25T11:00:00.001-08:00

Dallin has been feeding himself but I don't like messes so I never let him feed himself anything that is messy. Well I figured I might as well get over it cause it's only gonna get worse so here is the result of him eating yogurt.It really is so cute how big of a mess he makes and he just loves it!

New addition!!!

2010-02-18T09:16:00.001-08:00

Lee has been in Texas for a week hunting on a ranch and the owners said that Dallin needed one of these puppies so that's what Dad brought home. I really didn't want another dog Maggie and Dallin keep me busy enough but she is cute so I guess I will have to get used to having two dogs. Dallin thinks she is the greatest thing ever because he can pick her up and carry her around. Last night Dallin woke up in the middle of the night and stayed up for an hour and a half playing with his new puppy. I was so tired and just wanted him to go back to sleep but it was cute he just would hug her and love on her. She wont be little for long so I guess it's OK.
She follows him everywhere and no we don't have a name yet any ideas let me know.

He loves his new boots but they are way to big for him.

Horse of the Year!!!

2010-02-07T11:10:00.000-08:00

I went to the year end awards banquet for N.B.H.A.(National Barrel Horse Association) last night and it turned out to be a really good night. We ended up second overall for the whole year and I was out for 4 months of the year so that was awesome. My horse Scottie got voted horse of the year and that made my night. He is almost 25 years old and can still run with the 7 year old horses he is just amazing. He has won me 5 saddles and countless buckles and other awards. I have ran on him all over the country for the last 10 years and he is like my best friend. Dallin absolutely loves him and we hope he is around for a long time so Dallin can learn as much as I have from him.

The Farm

2010-02-03T17:15:00.000-08:00

We went down to the farm last weekend for my Grandmas 86th birthday. We had a lot of fun we rode 4-wheelers and ate way to much. Lee tried to kill everything that moved he caught quail in a trap and Dallin thought they were so cool. It was pretty cold so we stayed inside a lot. My Grandma was doing so good and she was very happy to get to come out to the farm and have lunch. This is how the trip started we hadn't even left our house.

Oh my gosh he was a mess. He had to be freezing it was not warm.

Snow and Movies

2010-02-01T20:26:00.000-08:00

Dallin loves to wear this cool whip tub on his head every time we go out to my parents. It's the first thing he goes and gets and he walks around saying "hat, hat" it's so funny.Dallin took a little tumble at my parents the other day they have a little hill that's drops off from their front yard into the driveway. He decided he wanted to walk off the front yard and he tumbled about half way down it was so sad. He was covered in dirt and grass and mud in his mouth and everywhere. We could not believe that he only got one little scape and it doesn't even look as bad in the pictures. I'm sure it wont be the last one because he is all boy and has no fear.

We got allot of snow and I am tired of not being able to go do anything especially riding my horses. I love when it snows how the tree looks in my front yard, I think its really pretty I just wish it would only stay around for a few days and not have the mud. I'm ready for summer already.

Lee and I took Dallin to his first movie today we went and saw The Chipmunks the squeakqual. He did really well for the first half of the movie he loved sitting with his dad eating popcorn and thought the huge screen was really neat. Half way through I think he had enough of The Chipmunks cause he did not want to sit there any more so we left but I guess for a 1 year old that was pretty good.

This kid is obsessed with this hat and I love it!

He has been obsessed with shoes lately and tries to put them on all day. If Lee or I go put our shoes on he knows were going somewhere so he gets his and sits down and tries putting them on and after a few minutes he will bring them to one of us. He is getting so big its sad.

Family Pictures!

2010-01-10T07:42:00.000-08:00

My sister-n-law took our family pictures a few weeks ago and they turned out so good. Thank you so much Linde we love them.

Christmas

2009-12-29T08:11:00.000-08:00

Christmas was so much fun this year. We were very busy trying to make all the family stuff. Dallin got to go see Santa a few weeks before Christmas and he thought he was so cool and loved his hat. We had a Christmas Eve party at lee's grandmas and we always have a blast there they play a lot of fun games. I did not get a lot of pictures cause I never think about it. Santa definitely found our house Dallin got a basketball hoop and a 4 wheeler. He loves both of them, we got him a bunch of clothes and some shoes so he did pretty good and he got very spoiled from both of the grandparents. His Nana and Papa got him a black cowboy hat and a rocking horse that sings and stuff and he is obsessed with his hat he never takes it off. I don't know if I will ever get another picture without his hat on.

Dallin was helping Nana cook!

Thanksgiving

2009-12-01T09:24:00.000-08:00

We had a great Thanksgiving except that Lee had to stay home and work. Dallin and I went to the farm in New Mexico and had Thanksgiving with my moms family and my dads family it was really good to see everyone. We rode quads a lot and went rabbit hunting so we were very busy. The food was great and I don't know if I have ever seen that much food in one place. Dallin had a blast playing with all the kids and did not want to get off the 4 wheelers. We all went on a ride on Friday and we were gone prob at least 4 hours and he loved every minute of it and never fell asleep, probably cause it was to bumpy we went in some pretty rough places.
He was obsessed with this horse and played with it for days

He loved this to his legs just weren't quite long enough to reach the pedal

He fell and hit the table the other day you can't really see it but its bad and its getting worse everyday.

Finally Walking!

2009-11-25T04:18:00.001-08:00

Dallin has finally decided to walk! I knew he could a while ago cause he would walk from me to lee all the time but never would just take off. He is 131/2 months now so it is definitely time and he every were but it is so much fun. We have been busy doing stuff and getting ready for the holidays we went and saw the Christmas tree that is going to the capitol building so that was neat that it came from the forest right by us. Dallin had bronchitis that was so sad I had to give him breathing treatments and he hated every second of it. He is much better now and we are very glad.
He thinks he is so cool!

I thought this was so cute these 3 are always together doing something.

The big tree that's going to the capitol building.

This is his new thing every time you ask him a question he puts his hands up like I don't know.

How sad is that

I made the stockings and the stocking hanger I'm very proud of myself I never thought I was the crafty type but I love doing it.

Halloween ans 1st snow

2009-11-01T11:52:00.000-08:00

We had a very busy day this Halloween we started out and went to my nephews football games in Blue Ridge. Dallin was worn out from that so he wasn't the happiest kid that night. Dallin dressed up as Derek Jeter he was so cute and he loved it. We went to Grandma's and Grandpa's, Grandma Colleen's, Grandma Gladys, and Nana and Papa's. We made smores at Nana and Papa's and watched the Yankees game and they did win which we were very happy about. Dallin fell asleep eating a sucker he was so worn out it was the cuttest thing ever.
The two little ones were not liking pictures

Happy kid!

Pumpkin Carving and Deer Hunting!

2009-10-24T17:29:00.000-07:00

We carved a pumpkin a few days ago for Halloween. Dallin played with it for a few minutes but it didn't last long. He cried the rest of the time because he kept eating big chunks of pumpkin and I would take them away. I didn't get a picture of the finished project but I will put one on later.

Him having a blast

Dallin got his first cowboy hat and he loves it and i think he looks so adorable in it.

I shot my first deer early on Friday evening and it was so exciting especially because he was big. I'm very proud of it and it was neat because it was Dallin, Lee, Maggie and me so we were all there and it was very fun to have everyone there to see me shoot my first deer.

I just thought this was cute!

Happy 1st Birthday Dallin!

2009-10-13T22:23:00.000-07:00

Our little boy is 1 today, it's exciting and kinda sad. I can't believe a year went by this fast and can't believe we have such a precious little boy. He is definitely the best thing that has ever happened to us and can't imagine life with out him. We had a fun birthday party for him and alot of people came and he got a lot of neat toys. He also loved his cake as you will see he destroyed it, it was the funniest thing ever. Dallin we love you so much!!! Some of the little things that he does that we love. He loves to cuddle after naps, loves to put on hats, loves to play peek a boo, loves to eat, loves when dad walks in the door after work, loves dads deer, loves horses, loves his dog and he loves hanging out with mom and dad. I didn't get one pic of him opening presents he wanted his mom the whole time but the cake made up for it. Only pic I got of him before his party.

His cake I made!

2009-10-13T09:26:00.000-07:00

Well we have been very busy lately, we went to a barrel race in Buckeye and it was so nice down there. We had a surprise birthday party for my mom, the grand kids thought it was fun to surprise her. There was a benefit rodeo here in town for Rory Finch and we went to that and Dallin did the little obstacle course on Scottie and loved every minute of it. Lee and I also had our 3rd anniversary already, we went up to Greer and stayed the night. It was the first night away from Dallin for me and I thought it would be so relaxing but I was wrong. I couldn't wait to get back and see him, but it was nice to get away for a little bit and hang out with Lee. Other than that we have been hanging out with Dallin's grandparents and just hanging out at home. One of Dallin's new favorite things are hats, he will sit and play with a hat forever it's so funny. He will find any hat it doesn't matter his hat, his dads any ones and he will put it on then take it off over and over, all day everyday. Another thing he has started doing is feeding his dog everything I will give him food and come back in the room a few min later and everything is gone off his high chair. He laughs the whole time he will drop something on the ground and Maggie will go eat it and he thinks it's the funniest thing ever.

Ok I know it has been a really long time since I have blogged. We have been super busy and just having fun. I don't think I can write about everyhthing but some things we have been doing are camping, hunting with Dad and Dallin was in his first rodeo and it was the cutest thing ever. He had a blast and smiled and laghed the whole time. He won 2 dollars some candy, a blue bandana thats looks so cute on him, and a badge he was thrilled! I also went to Phoenix with my parents and did some shopping for Dallin's 1st birthday which is comming up very soon. I got him his first pair of Jordans shoes and as you will see in one of the pictures his dad couldn't wait to give them to him so he got them a little early. Oh well I guess!
He loves watermelon!

Busy Busy

2009-07-12T22:31:00.000-07:00

We have been very busy lately which is a good thing i guess! First of all I'm a little late but we had a great fathers day and Dallin spoiled dad and got him all kinds of cool things. Then it was the 4th of July which is so fun up here, my best friend Dru from Yuma came up to run barrels in the rodeo with me. Our day started with going to the parade then we all went to the rodeo and Dallin watched mom barrel race then ate with the whole family and then had to go to the fireworks so it was a very busy but fun day. Today was a very special day Dallin got blessed and we were very glad everyone could make it. Lee did such a great job and Dallin and I are so lucky to have him. I could not resist putting these pictures of him in his blessing outfit he just looked so adorable i love it!!!
How cute is that outfit!

I got together with my friend Ty over the 4th, we tried to gets pics of the little ones but they weren't having any of it.

Family Pics

2009-06-21T21:27:00.001-07:00

We got family pictures taken when we went to the valley a few weeks ago and these are just a few of my favorites. My sister-n-laws good friend Wendy took them and she does a great job. The one where Dallin is crying is so cute i think. We put him on the ground to get a few with just him and he fell over in the dirt and had it everywhere and his feelings were so hurt but his face is priceless.

Family Weekend

2009-06-14T09:32:00.000-07:00

I'm really behind we went to the point with my family almost two weeks ago and i just kept forgetting so here are a few pics from our trip. We went to a diamondbacks game as soon as we got down there, they were playing the Braves. Then the rest of the week we just went to the water park and played in the water and got some sun, it was so nice and warm down there. We also went to AH-SO it's a Japanese restaurant and my nephews and niece thought it was so neat that they cooked right in front of you. Dad and Dallin at the game.
Lee on the water slide, it's a lot bigger than it looks in the pic.

Dallin loved his little floaty and when he could touch the bottom he would walk all over you could barely keep up with him.

Lee and I took my nephews golfing for their first time and they did really good.

Something new everyday

2009-05-30T17:20:00.000-07:00

Well I have not done anything on here for a while, but life definitely hasn't been boring. Dallin is doing new things everyday and I love wondering what he is going to do next. My Uncle Paul came up a couple weeks ago and we went horn hunting. We got rained on most the day and it was very cold but we had a blast. Dallin has two teeth know I can't believe it and they are so stinking cute, but of course i couldn't get a picture of them. A few more things that have been going on Dallin got his first wagon his dad just had to get it for him and Dallin loves to go for rides. One bad thing is a couple days after we got it he learned how to pull him self up so now he thinks he has to stand in it. He also loves to play patty cake so he is a very busy kid and we are loving every min of it. He loved to chew on the sticks.
