Koosherm Cabin



Let me just tell you this Weekend was one to remember......


We headed up to Ryan's Dads Cabin in Koosherm and the weather was overcast and rainy the whole entire time... But we found some things to keep up busy.... The boys ABSOLUTELY loved the horses! So we decided that Paul, Jace, Briggs and I would take a little horse ride up the mountain. Briggs rode with me and Jace with Paul. So we start up the trail and Paul takes me through 2 dang rivers with my little babe Briggs on board. We get through that and I am thinking "What the Hell am I doing!" We head up a little further and let me just tell you what we found... A FREAKING Rattle Snake!

Paul and Jace did not see it in the road, and I hear this RATTLING noise and there it is staring right at Me in the middle of the road...I almost died!

I am picturing in my mind, the horse going crazy and bucking me and Briggs off. Both of us falling to the ground and then we get eaten by the Big Scary Snake.
But No that's no what happened...
Cowboy Paul gets off the horse and like no big deal kills it with a stick of all things. I was so glad he was not scared because to tell you the truth I was a little nervous.

Stop Growing


I cant believe that my two boys are growing up so FAST!!!!
Today my Briggs turned 18 months old and I cant get over it.... It seems just like yesterday I was in the hospital on bed rest trying to keep him in my tummy. (glad that's over)

My Briggs is a Mama's Boy.... He also is a screamer, He understands everything that you say but communicates with a high pitched scream or (SCHREEAL).... Okay he says a few words Mama, Da Da, Jaaace, Whoof WHoof, Ball, Tickle Tickle Tickle, Pop-A Pop-A, He loves to make truck sounds BBBBBBBBBBB......... He has his four teeth on the bottom and only 3 teeth on the top and his left top is on its way in..... This past week all 4 molars started to peek through.... I am telling you his body is a major battle field... I swear every week it is something new, a bruise on his head from his brother hitting him in the head with a metal bat or a scraped knee from running into the wall.... Briggs still takes one nap a day and sleeps a good 2 hours every day... He loves to ride in Jaces Truck and gets mad when anyone else takes over his passenger seat...

Briggs loves to be outside... I change his clothes at least 2-3 times a day because he is constantly spilling, drooling, and making a mess.... I thinks that his most favorite thing to do is eat... (He never stops) and he is a great chocolate milk schooser he swished it back and forth back and forth.... He also loves to store all of his food in his cheeks... He might be part squirl......The other night I fed him a hot dog and like 30 minutes later Jace is crying because he spit it all over Jaces stomach in bed...(I had no idea he was still chewing on that dang dogger)

Briggs is a sweetheart that idolizes his big brother!! I have noticed lately that Jace is having a harder time doing the old Bate and Switch with Briggs... Jace use to just take any old toy from Briggs and give him something else..... Not anymore!

Game Time

This was my mans first professional Baseball Game and he was stoked for the big
GAME NIGHT!
(As you can see the kids not so much into it)
I seriously thought that I was going to kill Briggs.....The first 5 innings I spent walking around the Stadium. I know it didn't help that we had our kids jacked up on Cotton Candy and Soda Pop... It was about 1:00 in the morning when we finally got to the room and OOOH yes you guessed it my Briggs was awake the whole game.....
Ryan said "Never Again"

Disneyland 2010

This was our first official Disneyland Trip!!! And let me tell you "It was a lot of work!"

We headed down to Cali Thursday night and it took us about 6 hrs to get to the hotel. I was a little worried about the long drive for my Briggers but both of my boys were Angles on the way down.Ryan's brothers Michael and Chris showed up around 10 or 11 that night and Jace and Briggs could have not been more excited. Friday morning we were up and running we were at Disneyland by 10am. I think that the uncles were more excited then my two boys..... I was so mad because I had my camera the first hour and my battery went dead
(AHHHHHWWWWWW NEVER AGAIN!)
I was so upset I had Mikey and Chris taking pictures crazy with there phones. I think they could not have been more sick of me saying TAKE ANOTHER ONE!!! We left around 5 because we had baseball tickets to see the
ANGLES VS YANKEES
Needless to say I got to a Target to buy a new charger before round two at California Adventure.. Saturday we were dragging we got back from the game around 1:00 am. and my boys were tired!!!!! Saturday we were at California Adventure and Jace was only 1"to short for all the big boy rides Dang it i knew I should have bought him some high heels...LOL
We were out of there at 7 and let me tell you I was spent.

What a great Weekend!
