Labor Day Weekend

Labor Day weekend was a lot of fun. Everyone got up there Friday night other than mom and dad. They had a couple of set backs (dad in charge of a funeral Friday afternoon and then grandma Beryl taking a trip to the hospital unexpected). Jon didn't join us this weekend cause he went out with his family elk hunting to try and help them get their elk. But the kids had a lot of fun playing in the sand box. We missed seeing Annie and her family as well. Rulon & Tam came up Saturday morning to tell the family their sad news of them getting a divorce. Hope all goes well with both of them. But we just visited and enjoyed the fall air up there. It was a great weekend and was a blast. Thanks everyone for making it enjoyable.

Girl Weekend Out July 29 & 30th

I have no pictures to go with this post but my mom, her two sisters, and all the girl kids and grandkids came to cedar to spend the night at Cozy's and have a girls night out. It was so much fun. Mostly everyone was able to make it. We had an enjoyable time. Some of us got up early Saturday morning and went yard saleing. Then we just sat around and kept visiting. Everyone went home early afternoonish. It was a great memorable weekend that we need to keep doing every once in awhile. But that night when i got home we got the EXCITING news that MEG IS PREGNANT!!!!! WHOO HOOO!!! we are super thrilled and can't wait.

24th of july

The 24th of July was great. I am sorry i am now just blogging about it, but hey, least I'm doing it. The girls loved the parade. Mylee loved the rodeos too. They had a lot of fun playing with the cousins. It was a fun weekend.

4th of July Weekend

The first picture was taken memorial weekend showing all the damage and trees that came down from the moisture this last winter. We had over 50 trees down on my dad's property. So we all went up the 4th of july weekend to clean up. WOW!! was it a work out. We stayed up playing cards late at night. Yes COZY WON JON!!! we always have to keep playing one more round just to see if Jon can pull ahead. He hates when he loses to her. It's quite funny. But the cabin looks good again other than there is no shade anymore cause of all the trees that came down. Love all of you and it was a fun weekend with everyone.

catch up

So after we had the birthday party in march, came Easter. We went out to Hamlin Valley. We met Russ and his family out there and also there was mom & dad and Trav & Meg. The kids had a blast playing and the Easter Bunny found all the kids. We had a fun Easter Egg hunt for the kids. It was a good time. Next came Mother's Day. Just want to say thanks to all the wonderful MOM'S in my life especially my MOM. She is the APPLE to my kid's eye. She is such a wonderful example in my life and I love her very much. Thanks to all you do for us mom, we appreciate it. And to Nancy, I wished you were here more and more. Mylee is always asking me if we could go to heaven and bisit (thats how she says visit:) Grandma Platt and Jesus. I wished we could. Anyways after Mother's Day I had girls camp the middle of June. It was fun. The girls tried pranking us but didn't get us very good:) Next was Father's Day. Just want to tell Jon how much i love and appreciate everything he does for us. He is the best husband anyone could ask for. I look up to him a lot and appreciate the example he sets for me and my kids. Our Anniversary was the weekend after Father's Day. We didn't do anything other than we did go out to dinner. It was nice. It has been a good 5 years together. Lots of good memories. I LOVE YOU JONNY CAT!!!

Nancy 1st Birthday!!

I know I am only 4 months past but least i am trying to catch up. Nancy turned 1 on March 20th. She was so cute. She took her first step the night before her birthday. Her birthday fell on a Sunday so we had her party that night. We had all the family over for dinner and cake and ice cream. The cake was Jon's favorite part. I put him in charge of it. I made the cake and he was in charge of decoratiing it. Well he goes in the girls room and gets in the barn and gets some puppies and a bear. He makes it look like the puppies are chasing the bear. WOW!!! Leave it to Jon to think of decorating a 1 year old's cake like that. We had a fun time getting together and visiting. Nancy thought the money was the best. Look at her face:)

Catch Up!!

So i really need to play catch up to what has been going on in our lives. Christmas came and gone. Mylee got what she wanted - a toy box and play dough. Nancy got a dolly and a turtle with balls, which she loves. Jonny got what he wanted - a GPS tracking unit for the hound dogs, and i got surprised with a new video camera. It was a pretty good day. We spent it in Newcastle until christmas evening and then we went home. It was nice to visit all the family. We sent Leon on a scavenger hunt for his new bow all of us kids went in together and bought him. It was quite comical. He pretended like he didn't like the scavenger hunt but i think he really did. We are now into the new year and are grateful for what the last year has brought us. We have all stayed pretty healthy and cant complain. We recently had Teque and Carter's birthday on the 12th of January and then Jon's birthday on the 15th. Nancy started crawling a couple of weeks ago and is into EVERYTHING!! gosh i forgot what it is like having to keep an eye on a little one CONSTANTLY! Mylee is still in preschool and is loving it. At the first of this year she moved upstairs to the big kid primary which she loves singing the HELLO song. She misses playing in the nursery but she thinks she is a big kid. We have been very blessed. I love my family:)
