Wool Festival

Every year, the first weekend in June, we go to Flagstaff for the wool festival. You might be thinking "Why?", well I will tell you! Brian has a little known talent, Sheep Sheering! It's not his favorite thing to do, but they make it worth it to come every year. It's actually a very interesting place to be too. There are many Different people there! Madi had a blast! They had two 6 day old black lambs right by us and she sat there all day petting them! She wants one so bad, but I don't think so!

Gone Fishing!

We went to Show Low Lake one evening and had a blast! We took Brian's dad's boat, which Madi thought was so cool, and caught 6 fish! We had more bites but didn't quite get them in the boat! It was so fun though and the weather was perfect!



Madi's first fish! Caught with the awesome Princess pole!



Proud Dad with his girl!


Brian graduated his Fire Fighter class a couple weeks ago and he could not be happier it's over!! Me too, it's nice to have him home on Monday and Thursday nights! He is still going to be Show Low's mechanic, but now if they need him too he can go on fires or cover shifts.


Proud Dad!

It's a GIRL!!!!!! We went in for our ultrasound today and right off the bat she said it's a girl. The more and more she looked she said she was sure. So girl number 2 is on the way! Madi is so excited to have a little sis! She's been telling us all along that it is a girl. She was right! Brian and I are so excited too! Brian says he's going to make her his hunting buddy, but we'll see about that with a girly, girl big sister like Madi!

Dad Update

Easter Sunday my dad was put in the hospital for chest pains. Monday they did an angiogram and found out he needed a triple bypass!!!! We were in California when all of this happened, so I flew home for a day to see him right before surgery. He made me promise to fly back and go to Disneyland with my family, so I did but was worried the whole time! Anyways he ended up having 5 clogged arteries!!!!! He is doing great though, and the doctors say he will feel like a new man when he heals! We are just so blessed and thankful that the doctors were able to find out what was going on before he had a heart attack. The doctors said if he were to have a heart attack before the arteries were fixed he would have died. He is still in the hospital but should be out sometime this week!

Disneyland Pictures








She fell asleep in line to meet the princesses! I think we waited 2 hours to meet them! Seriously! But It made it so worth it to see Madi's face light up! She kept saying she couldn't believe it!



Dizzy?

California Vacation!

This last week we went to California for a little family vacation! We had so much fun! We stayed in San Diego for a couple days and went to Sea World, and then went to Lavern and went to Disneyland! Brian has family that lives in both places and they were so kind enough to let us stay with them.

Disneyland was a zoo though! I couldn't believe how many people were there on a Wednesday! So we didn't get to go on that many rides because each one we had to wait at least 45 min or longer!! All in all it was a good trip and Madi can't stop talking about it!


Us at the beach by Brian's aunt and uncle's house! Literally across the street from their house! It was awesome!
