Jesse - Brooke - Reese - Roxie - Aniston - Torah

This year Jesse's Edward Jones Summer Regional was in beautiful Sun Valley! We were really excited to go and had a wonderful relaxing three days. Our stay at the Lodge and all our meals were taken care of by Jesse work so it made it just that much easier to relax and enjoy the weekend to it's fullest. It was so nice to sleep in (while Jesse was a meeting Saturday morning), wonder through the ski shops in town and well just do anything we wanted. Jesse would kill me if he knew I was posting this picture. Ha Ha I just think he looks really good. Sunday I took engagement pictures for his little sister Jordanne and well I was trying to get an idea of where I would like to take them so Saturday afternoon I made him be my model. He was a good sport and helped me alot . We got really great photos of Jordanne and Jordan Sunday and had fun cruising around Sun Valley with them. Reese stayed home with my parents while we were in Sun Valley. We missed her but I know she had fun playin...

Last week we got to celebrate alot of birthdays! Liam's is the 3rd, mine is the 4th, Andrew's is the 5th (he is still in Bolivia so he wasn't home to celebrate with but we were thinking of him) and Logan's is the 6th! Ha Ha So it is a pretty fun week for us. On Sunday we meet up with Bre and Lincoln in Malad to kinda celebrate everyones birthdays. We had lunch and let the kids play at the park for a bit. Reese was having such a great time with the boys! She is getting so big. I really can't believe it. Liam giving Reese a big hug! Love it! We have started our busy summer, but wish the weather would be a bit nicer! We havn't even pulled the boat out of the shop yet!! Hopefully this next weekend it will warm up. Reese is going to love the boat even more this year but will be a bit of a challange I think. She is so active and loves to climb on everything. I am just excited to take her out. This is our little accessories girl! This picture is not very good becaus...

Last Monday was Jesse's birthday. Reese and I bought him riding gear. He will finally be legit and when Chase gets home he won't be able to make fun of Jesse for not having it. Unfortunately he didn't have much a birthday weekend. I got the flu Saturday night and was down for the count til about Monday afternoon. So needless to say he spent the weekend taking care of me. (I'm not a good sick person) Hopefully he will be able to get out and ride here soon. Reese is doing great and is full of surprises . Can't believe some of the stuff she will do and come up with. She keeps it interesting. She is trying to figure out the whole jumping thing right now. She can get one foot off the ground. Pretty funny to watch her. She now will throw just about anything she can get her hands on and usually it is directed at one of the dogs. We are so lucky to have such a fun and happy little girl! This weekend hasn't been much better for the flu at our house. Reese got sick Frida...

For the past 2 weeks our house has had Easter Eggs everywhere! I had to stuff a little over 2,000 eggs for my works Annual Easter Egg Hunt. Reese loved making a mess with them and playing with them. She made stuffing them very difficult. She would actually help put the candy in the eggs for about 15 minutes or so and then just wanted to eat the candy, and play with the eggs and made it impossible to get them done. Saturday was the Easter Egg Hunt and after all that stuffing Reese didn't even get to come and enjoy it. It was way to cold to have her out. It has snowed Friday night and we had like 30 mph winds that morning. It was almost impossible to scatter over 20,000 eggs in the park with the wind. The wind was blowing the eggs and our prizes all over. But despite the freezing cold we had just as good of turn out as usual. I was shocked! People are serious about their Easter Egg Hunts... haha . BreAna , Lincoln and the boys were in town for the weekend. Reese went and hung out...

Reese is loving the warmer weather here in Pocatello . I took her to the park behind where we live Thursday and she couldn't have been happier. She smiled and laughed the whole time we were out. We went down the slide a couple times, played in the dirt and I let her just cruise around where ever she wanted. It was fun to just follow her around and watch her explore. We have a hill in the back yard and she loves to run down it. She would fall down.....try to get back up....end up falling forward....and roll about 3 times and get up. Big old grin on her face the whole time and come up with leaves and branches all over her. This is the look Reese gets on her face with she sees the dogs and watches them chase around the yard. She just wants to follow them everywhere they go and gets a big kick out it when they come barreling by her. I'm always afraid Sage is going to take her out but manages to barely miss her and she will just laugh. We are going to have so much fun with her t...

Well it has been a while since I posted anything. We had a little camera trouble and now we are all fixed up so time for a update. We have been keeping busy with Reese, work and skiing. Reese is now 14 months and is busy as ever. She has to climb on everything, run everywhere she goes and loves to chase the dogs around the house. Pu- pu - pu -puppies, bye, hi, Dad and Mom are words she says most the time right now. My favorite is when she says ' yesssss ' and raises her fist up in the air. She learned that one from me while we were watching the Olympics. You have to be careful with her if she doesn't like how something is going she will tell you off. You can't understand what she is saying but you know you are getting the word. We need to be a little more careful when leaving the door open. She will make a straight shot for the yard and cries when be bring her back in and shut the door. It is so fun to watch her learn new things everyday. We are so lucky to have such a...

For our 6 th and final day in California we were back to Disney Land for Round 3. It was raining all day long so we got there a little late and only stayed for a couple hours. We did however get to get a picture with Tinkerbell and ride a couple more rides. We took Reese on It's A Small World and she seemed to like it. We bought her a little Minnie Mouse poncho that she looked pretty cute in and kept her dry from the rain. Really wish it hadn't been raining so we could have enjoyed the full day at Disney Land but I guess we were pretty lucky that Friday was the only day we had rain. We had absolutely beautiful weather the rest or the week and it was so nice to get some sun shine! I think it did us all some good. It was alright though that we were back to the Condo early Friday night so Jesse and I could get a good nights rest to get ready for our full day of driving that we had ahead of us. We got up around 5am and hit the road. It was a down poor of rain as we headed out o...
