This is my sister Senica, the bride. Presley was helping her smell a flower. too cute.



I thought I better get my butt in gear and update my blog. If I died today no one would know what has happened the last two months! Such a slacker. Summer is a super busy time for me. We had a wedding in my family this month and I traveled down to Utah to attend. It was so fun to see all my family. I have not seen some of my family members for years! Everyone is growing up so fast.

This is me and my brother James. A lot of people have asked me if we're twins, wish we were, but we're not. He is handsome.
I was able to meet my new neice and nephew also.

Eden

Hunter

This is a shot of my sisters and I, excluding the bride, and my two cousins, ashlee and heidi. It was fun to get together and catch up on everyone.

I made hair bows for all the little girls. This is Taylor's. One of the colors was lavendar. I thought they turned out really cute.

This is Conner just being a ham. He took a flower from a center piece decoration and was dancing around on the dance floor. He looks good in lavendar and blue! My little prince, always makes me smile.

Me and my two girls outside the Bountiful temple. It was really windy. We had a good trip. Saw lots of family. Good food, Good friends, Good fun.

And We're Back

Well, I have basically fallen off the blog lately. I've been busy busy and super frustrated with my computer and getting pics to upload. So here is a re-cap of the last little while. First, I had a birthday. One year older, and I have to say wiser too. It was fabulous. Good food, good friends, good times.

This is me showing the kids I'm ready for some candle blowing, kinda a scary face, sorry.

Then I'm here sporting a new lip gloss Mary gave me, fabulous color. Thanks to everyone who supplied me with new items to add to my ward robe, as well as all the birthday wishes. It was great.

Next we have our super duper uncle Marlo, and his willingness to spoil his grand kids. And with us having no immediate family around, he lets our kids mooch off of all the fun stuff he has. Welcome to The Tree House Water park. It is so much fun. The weather has finally warmed up, we all have bathing suits, and now we have a waterpark, fabulous.

The first time we set it up our kids played for four hours! definitely fun. The waterpark is equipt with three water slides, a tree house in the middle, a rock wall, a basketball hoop, and a pool area for the little ones.

Presley had a blast with a bucket and everett.

We are so glad summer is finally here, feels like we have waited soooo long. Now hopefully it lasts as long as the winter did. Lots of sun, heat, tans, popsicles, kids, suits, and water! My kind of livin' We country goers live for the summer time, and I have to say, this year we are doing it in style.

And don't we all wish we could still wear our pony tails this high?

Baptism

Eight is Great! Our handsome little guy was Baptized April 18, 2009 at 6pm. We had a great turn out for his big night. Grandpa and Grandma Beyeler drove up from Utah along with great grandpa and grandma, and Grandpa Vance also was able to come up. Conner had family from othello as well as moses lake attend; and some good friends. We appreciate them all for traveling such a ways to support Conner. It was a special night for him and he was so excited to have his grandparents there. I think I was more nervous than him!
They do baptisms by stake here, and there were quite a few kids, but it went smoothly, and Conner did great. He even made everyone laugh when he came up out of the water and shook his head like a fish and blubbered on about the water. He always seems to make everyone laugh one way or another. We have so many pictures from when grandparents were here and will be posting them soon. We love Conner and are greatful he has made this decision in his life.

Every time April Fool's day rolls around, we have a birthday party. My computer has been down in the picture department until now, so this post is late, but better late than never! Conner has had a birthday, yeah! Our big boy is now 8! Yikes, that makes me feel really old. I feel bad for the guy cause his birthday always falls on spring break, so it's hard to find party goers that are in town, but we kinda had a birthday week instead! We went to a movie, Monsters vs. Aliens. I have to admit when they changed Susan's name to Ginormica, I kinda looked around like someone was looking at me, kinda is like my name. Conner had not been to the new McDonald's since it had opened, so we headed there for lunch and play time, yeah for all those clean toys! After lunch we went to pick up Conner's present. He got bunnies, ti's the season! They are fun. Since the bunnies were such a hit, we decided to make his birthday cake a bunny. I tried my best.It was really yummy. I made little ones too so everyone could have their own little cake! We had a few friends and family over and it was a fun little party. We love you Conner!

Anna

This is Anna. Conner got two bunnies for his birthday, One needed a friend so that's how we ended up with two! My camera is still not loading my precious pics, so I took some more. I only got pictures of Anna though. We only have one leash, yes I bet you did not know you could walk a bunny did you? So any way I will take new pics of Theodore later. Anna is a cute little thing, and Taylor's buddy. She loves me of course, I am the one who makes sure she is taken care of. I caught this sweet pic of her meeting the dog.
At first The dogs would just chase them, of course, but after making the dog sit, the bunny actually came up to the dog to check her out. I think the dog was soooo scared she came up to her that she just froze. Intimidation. It was funny cause the first day we had them I brought them in the house because it was raining and Brandon was trying to put a roof over their cage, anyway, we were playing with them on the floor and Brandon came in he said " has the cat seen the bunnies yet?" I said no, and just as I did, the cat came walking around the corner, he only comes in to get his food at night, and as soon as he saw that bunny take a hop, he crouched and sprinted. Brandon chased the cat, I caught the bunny, and the kids almost saw the cat have bunny for dinner! It was traumatic for me. I had no idea the cat would try to catch the bunny, but then again i do forget he is a farm cat, and a good one. We don't bring the bunnies in anymore in fear that the cat might waltz in unnoticed and seize his lunch.

The bunnies are getting so big now, and they eat like humans, a lot. I am constantly feeding them. They are cute though, and little Anna likes to eat my Dandylions out of my lawn, so a plus for me.

I just wanted to let everyone know I have fallen off the blog earth. My camera has had problems scanning my pictures, and now i finally got it fixed last night, but now the font on my computer is all messed up and after two hours and an aching back I gave up. I have pictures of birthday, bunnies, cows, and so much more and blogging without them would not do justice, so I will wait till my computer decides to get his act together, yes it's a he. no way a women would be having all these blogging problems right? so until i get it fixed, i will not be gracing you with all my personal journaling. I know I know, it'll be o.k. hopefully i'll be back soon.

SPIRIT WEEK

I have always been a fan of spirit week. Partly because I was a cheerleader, therefore you are kind of in charge of the spirit, and partly just because I think it is fun to see all the kids express their selves. They have all sorts of fun things each day during the week; sports day, pajama day, school shirt day, backwards/inside out day, and of course my favorite, wacky hair day! I am a super fan of this because I also participated in wacky hair day when I was a youngin' I actually won 50 dollars, first prize for the wackiest hair. wish I had a pic, but I don't.

Basically I had really long hair, I put a braid on each side of my head, attached a hanger to my head and threaded the hair through, so I had a "Pippy long stocking" do. It was awesome. My hair stuck straight out and up off my head.

So today was wacky day, and our clothes we wear are already wacky, so I decided we would go with the hair. Poor Conner always wants to do spikes or something, but his hair is soooo stinking coarse, it won't budge. We call him our little Brillo pad, seriously, it's rough. A buz cut will always be his signature do, poor thing. Anyway, Dad saved the night last night by searching for hair dye, and came home with Hannah Montana blue.

It was a hit, and showed up perfectly. Taylor had to get in on the hairdo too, who could not if Hannah Montana was sporting it?Conner said the kids at school loved his hair, and Taylor loved showing hers off too. All in all wacky hair day was a success, I even put a few streaks in my hair, per request of the blue haired kids. At the end of the day; Wacky hair, Wacky kids, Happy mom.
