FIELD TRIP

D10 Dozer





Pipe...HUGE. 6Ft. 8 inches


Tower The walls are 4 ft thick and they are raising it ummm....Can't remember

That crane was HUGE too. Notice how small Garrett and the Kids are (including the truck.)



Scrapers...I think there were like 40. Couldn't fit them all in one pic. It was amazing

What a fun day! Garrett took us to Reuter Hess! We had a good tour from the "Pro"! Tylie loved looking at all of the scrapers and the dozers. It was great. Not many people can say they have been at the bottom of a reservoir. (Empty-of course) And the D10 was Awesome too! It was huge. I really can't believe how big that Dam is going to be. The pic's don't do justice. Anyway, I am so proud of Garrett! He LOVES his job!



Thanksgiving at Country Buffet


Country Buffet was actually pretty nice. Garrett had a steak...Never done that before on Thanksgiving.

Giraffe and a Horse...What a mix.









TYLIE scored big with the treats! She was so cute. Saying "Trick or Treat...Have a nice night" What a Bug! So Polite!








Oh...Just pullin' out the Good Ol' Bronco's Cheerleader. Couldn't find the Chaps or the Bikini Top. (Out of season) But I tried to Pull out the "Hip-Pop" Can't tell. The shirt is way to big. Garrett's
Shorts don't help me either. Ah Well, I tried. I look redic.

Feeling a little left out!

Poor Tylie. Feeling left out! Just because Slade got a hair cut we had to pretend to "cut" Tylie's. And She had to have "2 pretty tails". She made me take her pic too! Boy is she high maintenance. What a cute little girl I must say myself. And NOTE: The big bruise on the Mellon! Orange on a tooth pick anyone?!?


Slades 1st Hair Cut!

He LOVED it. NOT! He cried like a little girl the whole time.







Drool and some more drool!


















and the final result! Not much hair but he looks so much better!

Who's Hot!

That's Right SLADE! You got it! Ms. Jeni gave this shirt to Slade. And I am quite embarassed to let him wear it in public. (No offense Jeni) But he sure looks cute in it! Thanks Jeni for the Shirt! It makes me feel good anyway!

Cutest Witch on the Block!

Glitter anyone?!?










Check her out! What a Cutie Patootie!









What's up G?

Shrek is in the HOUSE!




Look what I found...I turn away for a minute and SILENCE! Then a BURST of laughter!

On a much lighter note...





What a cute little terd! He is such a good baby! Don't we all wish we could fall asleep like this: Any where, Any time, Drool like this, and it still be as cute as this! Too bad we get embarassed if we do this. I think some of us are guilty and do this at church. Ummm definately not the right place!





I am the BLUBBERING IDIOT today!

I just thought I would share a few feelings that I have had today!
Where to start...Here it goes.
  • Anxiety
  • Stress
  • Sadness
  • Happy
  • Hungry
  • Full
  • Sick
  • Worried
  • Numb
  • Angry
  • Dirty
  • Judged

So many feelings...and what is pathetic is I could probably list a few more. I have been overwhelmed with things lately. Not necessarily my own issues but issues with my dearest friends, family, the economy, reality, etc. I know we ALL have our imperfections and down falls. No body is perfect. Somedays I wonder about life. It is supposed to be wonderful and a learning experience for all. And that it is. Sometimes it takes us screwing up once and for others it takes several times before they figure things out.

But, Heavenly Father knew what he was doing. How sad he must be right now?? Looking at his creations and wondering why we are treating each other this way and why there is countless children who have forgotten what Jesus Christ did for us.

LIFE is hard. It wasn't EVER meant to be easy. People hurt us and we hurt others. Sometimes not intentional-But it does happen. I have hurt many in my life time. Really some I haven't hurt on purpose and lets be honest some I have. What a stinker I am...And I have a lot to work on.

But I do know this...Throughout my life I have learned:

  • Christ lives
  • To Love
  • Service
  • Acceptance
  • hardships
  • Strength
  • Finding good
  • life
  • Pain
  • Clean
  • Motherhood
  • Follow Promptings

Again I could go on and on with the list! Just felt compelled to share this with all of you wonderful people who seem to care about me and my wonderful family! And Hats off to our wonderful PARENTS who taught us how to LIVE and LOVE! Much love to all of you! We would have a group hug but kinda hard through the computer! I hope with the upcoming Holidays that we all rememer who we truly are and what we stand for! Loves!
