Vegas

This past weekend we went to Las Vegas with the whole family, which included: Chasta, Slade; Christa, Annie, James; Aaron, Linkin, Lucas and myself. Good times. The first night we arrived, Christa decided to take Aaron out on the town. They definately had a good time.

The next morning, still a little groggy, we headed to the Omelet house. That is good stuff. (My boys even eat there.)

Lucas and Linkin had so much fun. I think it was more of a trip for the youngsters. There was no fighting, YES!!

Being a mom

I sure enjoy my boys.

Linkin & Lucas

Linkin is a great photographer. He always gets my best side. That kid is wonderful. He is in 1st grade. He reads on a 3rd grade level. His new favorite series, or chapter books are: Junie B. Jones. That is just the right kind of book for him. Right now we are working toward 650 minutes of reading, from now til April. It is a reading program for the kite festival, put on in St. George to encourage reading. There are prises to win, like a kite or an ipod. Linkin really wants the ipod, so he is reading up a storm. We already have about 60 minutes. He is doing excellent.

Linkin will go far in life. He is that type of kid that is always doing his best. He is life of the party, center of attention and just dang cute..

It seems like there is always something crazy I am doing. But what is new. I always help Lucas with photo taking. Lucas is 2 years old. He looks just like his dad. You will be able to see that, cause he has no part of me at all. (Linkin got all my genes.) So that Luke kid, he is pretty cool.

He is so independent. He is so much fun to hang out with. Right now we are potty training. He is doing so well. He wears his big boy underware all day and at night I put a pull-up on him. He still wakes up dry. I think I just get nervous. It is amazing how quick children learn. I am very glad that he is such a fast learner.

One of his favorite things right now is Kung Fu Panda. That is what he is doing in this picture. He is so cute, great personailty. He must of got that little bit from me.

My family

This is me with Linkin and Lucas..


This is my husband Aaron and our son, Lucas.


These two kids are the cutest ones I have.

My dog is like Marley..

What fun we had this weekend. We got to play with our dog Rocky. (He is a black lab.) If anyone has seen Marley & me, that is our dog to a "T". We got Rocky when he was 6 weeks old. He was so cute and didn't want to be alone. We played with him alot. He started growing and growing, now everytime the kids try to play with him, he jumps all over them. He is a very large dog. My boys are 6 and 2. So when Rocky jumps on them, they fall down.
Rocky got Parvo about 3 months ago. We took him to Emergency care and had to be in the hospital for 1 week. We almost lost him.

He is a strong dog.
When we brought him home we let him come inside to stay with us. BIG MISTAKE.. That dog is crazy! We let him stay in our garage, another big mistake. He has chewed up everything we own. (4) Sleeping bags, a suitcase, all my saved baby clothes, pretty much anything that we had saved outside. So we started leaving him outside in our backyard. He started to dig under our fence to the neighbor dog's yard. I swear this dog is up to no good. My husband even fixed the fence. He found a way out everytime, so this time my husband chained him up. We came home after work, Rocky was over the fence and still chained up, just happy to see us. Well I could probably go on and on about our dog, but I will save it for another day.
