Kids are to fast!!!

Even when you think you are right on top of what you child is doing, they seem to still be faster then you!!! Talmadge got down the markers and dumped them all out on the floor. As I was putting them away and he was sitting literally right next to me I look up and this is what I see........Just thought I would give you all a little laugh, I sure had to laugh!!!!!!!

Happy 4th of July


The 4th of July was quite fun for us this year. We got to have Matt's family down from Vancouver for a visit. His brother and sister in law also came over from Ricks to spend it with us. We got to do lots of fun things like going to the water park "Roaring Springs". Were a storm starting brewing while we were there. But it worked out perfect because everyone cleared out and it was nice and warm still with zero lines on any of the rides. The boys went golfing and us girls got pedicures.Talmadge got a little lawn mower and blows bubbles, from Nanna that he just loves. The boys got to play lots of video games, which is always so fun for them.On 4th of July we had a great BBQ. Matt and I blew up Talmadges little pool, but he wanted nothing to do with it, so it became everyones wading pool to keep cool.The boys took out Talmadges little basketball and had a little competition to see who could make the basket from far away. It was quite funny we all had to laugh!Setting off fireworks was quite fun. Talmadge was a little more scared of them this year but still had a great time.Talmadge was completly tuckerd out by the end of it all and was asleep on our lap not even 5 minutes after fire works ended. It was a great weekend. So glad the Stevens could come down and visit, it was great seeing you all!!!

Summer water fun!!!!

It is finally starting to feel like summer around here!!!! Yeah!!!! We had a hot spell for a while but then it went back to spring for way to long. So, Talmadge, Grandma and I finally got to take advantage of the warm day and our passes to the water park here and have some fun.Ok first this is such a cute picture of Talmadge in Grandma's back yard before we left for Roaring Springs!Doesn't he just look like such a stud in his little swim suit!!!!! Talmadge was even brave enough to go downt the slide with me. He thought it was pretty cool!!!He is starting to think sunglasses are pretty cool to bad most of the time he will only keep mine on, instead of his!!

Memorial Weekened!!!!

Matt, Talmadge and I had a great Memorial Day weekend. We got to spend lots of family time together, and for those that know Matt schedule it is a great thing when we get to spend lots of time together. We started off Saturday taking Talmadge to the zoo. This was his first trip and a lot of fun. He was almost more interested in people watching then he was looking at the animals, but either way he really enjoyed himself.Next Matt was such an awesome husband and installed pendulum lights over our bar. They look so awesome.On Saturday we went down to feed the ducks with our friends the Meldrums, it was a great sunny day and lots of ducks!!!Is this not the cutest little boy you have ever seen!!!!!!
We then got to finish off the weekend by going out to my Daddy's grave and decorating it. All the grand kids made a little chain to go around the headstone and we brought flowers and spent time and chatted and played.

Family Time

Ok I know I have been posting a lot. But since we couldn't for so long, I wanted to post some of these great pictures of things we have been doing for family and friends to see.........This is Talmadge last week. The poor little boy, ran a fever of 102 and above for more then 3 days. at night it would hover around 103. This is him at 11pm one night when he couldn't sleep and finally fell asleep in my arms. He was such a trooper. The Dr.'s couldn't figure out what was going on, so we all chalked it up to maybe him breaking his back molars. Poor boy!!!!








Finally decided it was time to cut off the hair. Have fun for the summer and just enjoying doing things instead of being so hot wiht all my hair!!! I love it shorter!!!!!!










Went over to Grandma's to help her get he house on the market. The men were so good about helping around the yard. Even my little boy!!!Talmadge helped Matt make breakfast for me on Mothers day, they did a great job making my favorite Crepes!

Then that weekend Matt took me out for a Mothers day weekend. We went to a couples massage, dinner, movie and last a awesome night at the Anniversary Inn, the Romeo and Juliet room it was so awsome, such a great place to stay and man did I ever come back home relaxed.

It has been a fun little time around the Stevens house hold.
Talmadge is a major BBQ freak he wants to do it every night and help Matt with every step of it. It is the first thing he wants when we go on the porch.
He also loves loves loves bubbles.

Ducks at the Park!!

The other week, we had a wonderfully warm day out. I decided to take Talmadge down town to feed the ducks and have a pick nick lunch. Grandma decided to come with us, which made it even that much more perfect. It was one of those great mom days. Where you get to spend quality time with your child and share new experiences with them. Talmadge thought the Ducks were so awesome, and man once you start feeding them, they come in swarms.
