Cousins....and Camping...

Miss August Carley, Mr. July Caison and Mr June Gannon..


We went camping over Fathers Day weekend. We went to one of the Forks, I cannot remember which. It was just past Big Lake. It was a beautiful area. As most of you know, I am NOT a camper. I dont like much about it at all. But I did have a good time visiting with Justins family. His brother Jeremiah, wife Tracy, kids Carley and Zach came from Colorado. Jamin and His wife Elizabeth and Gannon came and Justins mom and dad. So it was their entire immediate family. We all had a good visit. It was also the first time all the Grandkids were together at the same time. Gannon was born in June, Caison in July and Carley in Aug. They will all be 2. It was fun the see them together. Here are a few pictures from the camp out, (thanks Tracy) I forgot my camera. Dang it! Grandma has some good ones too. I will have to get copies of. Tanner, Carley, Brekyn, Hayden and GannonGannon, Carley and Tanner..... Jamin and Justin Goin Fishin!!! :)

Terrible 2's and hes not even 2!!





Caison is seriously a funny kid!! He is always up to something! He loves to wear shoes always.... Even if they dont match. (notice his shoes) He loves to play in the toy box! He takes everything out that is big, and sits on whats not...

I was making dinner tonight. I was in the kitchen a
nd could hear a muffled MEOW. I was looking every where and couldnt find the kitty. We have kittens we are getting rid of and they like to come in sometimes and eat. So I figured it was one of them. But I could not find it anywhere. I just assumed it was meowing from the front door wanting in. It was a soft meow. So I open the dishwasher to get a spatula and Cais had put the kitten in there. He was really sweet and left it a toy to play with. But he made sure the dishwasher was latched closed. I reached in and about screamed when I saw something furry moving! Once I realized, I laughed so hard. Caison came over and said Kitty in it! This kid is always doing something somewhere.... We have to be on guard always with him and hes not even 2!! :)

I LOVE This Kid!!! :)





Terra and I took all the kids (minus Preston) Swimming last night. We took them to the Show Low pool. It was nice. The kids loved it. Caison LOVES the water. He had a swimming diaper and his swimming Trunks on. I forgot to bring him some dry clothes. But I did remember a dry swim diaper. When we were done, I put the dry diaper on him and of course left off the wet trunks so he didnt freeze. He Loves hats and wears them every where. So this was the end result of our evening at the pool! He looked hilarious... but hes so dang cute!!! I love this kid!

My Daddy!


Fathers Day is coming soon! I just wanted to write a little about my sweet Dad!
He is truly the most amazing person I know. He is so kind and soft spoken. He always has been. He is so patient and funny. I love that he is really funny and he doesn't mean to be. It just makes me laugh even harder. He is always so happy to see me and my sweet kids, who love him so much. He was such a hard worker as I grew up. That was such an example to me. He worked in the horrible cold weather and never complained. He did such hard physical work, even when his knee made it miserable for him. He worked hard! He made sure the house was warm for us when we woke up every morning in the winter. We only had a wood stove. He taught me to build great fires. That I love. I love to make the house warm for my own kids now. He is a diabetic and takes such great care of himself. He is SO careful about the foods he puts into his body. He cares about himself and that's important to me. He has a fun sense of humor. He laughs easily. Or at least hes laughing inside is what he used to say. He would do anything for anyone. He is very giving and never expecting in return. He taught me to drive a stick shift when I was about 9. He let me drive in the front yard. I had to sit on the encyclopedia books. I couldn't see out the windshield with out them. He was so patient as I learned. (even when I almost hit the porcupine out by the SJ) He said never to swerve for animals in the road. SO I was not going to try to miss the porcupine. He taught me honesty. And the importance of it. He showed us love growing up, even when we weren't so easy to love! Trust me, there were lots of those times! He is a very spiritual man. He believes in Christ. He loves all of his children no matter what. He is a wonderful Grandpa. The kids always love to see him. Justin loves him, they have a good relationship. I love that! He will go shooting with him any given time. He taught me to shoot. This my kids thought I could not do. I showed them I could hit that can almost every time! They were amazed that a mom could shoot a gun! Thanks dad!! Most of all I want my Dad to know how much I honestly Love him. I love the father he was and is to me. I could not ask for better!! He is not only my father but my friend, and I love him! Thanks Dad for being the best!! I LOVE YOU!! xoxox
