Baby Lambs

Every year my mom gets some baby lambs to bottle feed. They are always so stinkin' cute! I love these pics of Bill and TessaLee with them. Sometimes they are just too far gone when she gets the lambs that they die. One of these two died. Of course she got another one to replace it. Then a few weeks later the guy called and had been out to the range where the sheep were and had 4 more that were starving. He asked if she would take them as well. Sadly one of those died too. She's feeding 5 baby lambs 3x a day... WOW!

Womens Conference @ BYU

I know it's been a while... Things get so busy when it gets warm. About a month ago several of us went to the BYU Womens Conference. I look forward to this weekend every year! I truly fills my spiritual reservoir! Its so fun to see all the family and listen to the talks that have been prepared for us! Also there is plenty of shopping at the BYU bookstore and good brownies and Kettle Corn! I hope we will continue this tradition for many years to come! I know I will keep going no matter what and take my girls when they are old enough!

Bert Reynolds, the bird!

A long time ago my dad gave me this bird for like Christmas or my birthday or something. He's been a good bird but we haven't really taken a whole lot of interest in him until just recently. Jeff and the kids got him out the other day and clipped his wings. These pics were taken on the same day as Josh's birthday party! At first Tessa really wanted to hold Bert but as soon as you put him on her arm she would freak out. It was sooo funny! Now she must be used to it or something because she loves it! I was really surprised that Sydnee and Brooke did so well! They were very brave. They didn't even freak out or cry! What cutie cousins! :)

Cutie Cousins

Seriously, Look at these two girls. Sydnee and TessaLee truly are the BEST of friends. I really just get the feeling that they've known each other for a long time. There's no doubt in my mind that they were close friends just a short time ago in heaven. They just have such a close bond at such a young age. It's really something to see! They play really well together. They are always huggin' and laughing together. They have another cousin in Cedar city that Tessa doesn't get to see very often. Her name is Brooke and she's Brett's little girl. I really need to get a picture of them all together. They even kinda look alike! I just can't say it enough... They are so cute with each other. Can you imagine them as teenagers..... Holy Crap, that's all I have to say!

Happy Birthday JOSH!!

Happy Birthday to my oldest child, Josh!! It's a little crazy to think that I have a 9 yr old son! WOW!! He is such a good boy, and we love him to pieces! He got tons of money. Norita brought over a really small cup filled to the top with change. No big deal right... it had like $29 in it. Then my mom gave him a twenty dollar bill and Great Gramma Amy gave him 5 bucks! Crap that's a lot of money. We made him put half of it in his missionary fund! I just got him 2 Bionicles and some clothes! Also we celebrated on Monday because Jeff was off work. All in all I think he had a great day! Love you Joshie!!

4-Wheel Sledding

Here's the funny story about this 4-wheeler (I know Teresa will be able to understand this): Jeff has an uncle that is handicapped. His name is Randy. He lives next door to us. He can't drive a car, and we live way out in the fields so they bought him a 4 wheeler to get around. Well it's been several years and he's gotten quite comfortable driving it. A few months ago Scott, Jeffs dad, started getting phone calls about Randy driving way too fast and darting into traffic and almost hitting another car. So Scott disabled the 4 wheeler and told him it broke and that he got rid of it. Meanwhile, they bought him a little John Deere tractor thing that only goes like 15 miles per hour tops. Well, Scott didn't junk it and it still runs, but no one wants Randy to know its still around because it would cause a lot of problems. We decided to paint it a different color to cover up our lie, but it still looks the same. So Scott took Randy to Cedar City and the kids and I got to play on it for a few hours. It was very fun! Even TessaLee went for a ride!

Family pictures

We had family pictures taken in November. My cousin Tatum always does them for us. She is so fun and good with our kids, we always give her a challenge. These are a few of my favorites! We took some here at our house and then we drove to Jack Holts barn a few miles down the road. They turned out so cute! TessaLee was a monster. She hardly looked at the camera, but I guess that happens when you have a one year old. Tate wants to do some retakes for our family pic because she doesn't just love the ones we have now but Jeff said that's just who we are right now, a family with a little one year old monster (whom we all love and adore)! You know Jeff and his trucks. This is our Land Cruiser. It is our favorite summer vehicle! We love ridin' around with the top and doors off.
