~~~GO MELISSA~~~

Gold's Gym made a huge mistake for not giving Melissa a killer deal on a new membership.. But we are glad Melissa got us set up for a tour and 1 week free pass to Lifetime fitness in South Jordan... It is the bomb!!! The cleanist, nicest gym I have ever seen.. Here's the story behind these Pic's. Melissa challange the sales rep (Rusty) to a rock climbing contest to win us both an additional free week. It was awesome... without hesitation she jumped right into the action, got her harness on and the ropes hooked. Rusty went 1st and went up to the top bell in 14.21 seconds and Melissa was right on his tail coming in @ 16 something all I know is I bet her never challanges her to anything... Afterwards a few of the employees that were spectating with me informed us that Rusty use to work the rock climbing pit when he first started @ the gym as an employee. In my eyes MELISSA spanked him since she had never done it before... Even though she come in second we didn't leave without getting a good deal, she was able to get some of the sign up fees dropped and 2 free nice, gym bags.. We were both able to get Brian and Seth to sign up and the kids can go as well and either play in the kids center or we can take they swimming and down the water slides, Brian is really excited to go start working out @ nights and playing some B-Ball. He says he is going to take a few sessions with Melissa so he can get Chizzled Abs like her's.

~~~~~Pre-School~~~~

Brilyn started pre-school with Meilssa again yesterday, she looked so cute in her new pink and tan camo, but was a little on the mean side and wouldn't pose for a quick pitcure so we got one today... On sunday Taylor went to church with Mykelle and Brian and I took Bripie to get a few things she got new shoes & a BACK-A-PACK-A which she is so proud of.... She is so full of non-sense most of the time. I hope she learns as good as Taylor did in pre-school, if not I am sure that she will hold the record for longest TIMEOUT..

DOING GREAT

Taylor is doing so well... And so is Dad and Mom we have realized that she is fine. I drop off Brilyn and pickup Alex, Melissa's neighbor boy who is so kind to walk Taylor to her door and they picks her up from her teacher after school and Stacy Alex's mom picks them up and takes Taylor to Melissa's for us. Taylor has loved every mintue of her new class, she has been pretty good about waking up for school and the past 2 nights has been GREAT at going to bed early....

Such a Cutie

......Our Baby isn't a Baby ANYMORE......

Today was a very emotional day for mom and dad.. Tater started school today and to be honest was HORRIBLE for us, she was more than excited. We both took off the morning @ work got Brilyn dropped off @ Melissa's and headed over to East Midvale Elementary. Taylor was very excited and just kept saying she was going to get 20 new friends today.. We found her class and got her in line for when the bell rang, Ms. Lund her teacher came out to the line and before you knew it we were both in tears and Taylor wasn't even looking back for us or looks as if she was scared or concerned about anything. We were able to get a few pictures of her before class and after she got sat down @ her chair.. She peeked @ us and smiled but with no sadness on her face.. We then raced outside to catch some clean air (too clear the tears). It was so cute to see her be so independant but breaks are hearts that she is growing up too fast... This girl is going to be so busy fighting off the boys....

Rachel on Vacation @ Lake Creek Ranch...

Rachel is in love with riding horses and as often as I get a chance I invite her to come along with me and the girls ( we all know how much I get to go and ride being that my husband is not a horse person ) So my dad, my mom, Brittany and I took Rachel on a 3 mile ride @ the ranch, she loved every mintue of it including the part where I was riding my dad's knew spolied rope horse STICH who apparently hasn't been in much water before, decided to take me for a short swim while dad and I were crossing the river side even though it was just a little laugh and I was soked from neck down. She was so thrilled to have witness it and even though she was sore and the rain had come out she didn't even hesitate on the next days worth the ridding, Makayla, Rachel and I went out again where we saw a huge elk. Atleast huge to us those pictures are on Rachels camera so I will have to Blog them later... Rachel we were so glad to have you come, sure makes my 5 1/2 hr drive seem like nothing and you fit in perfectly with our family.

*****Free Daycare*****

This past weekend the girls, Rachel and I headed to Jackson Hole to visit mom and dad. Dad had paid to have a handmade kids saddle for his grandkids which is so small and cute. The kids had so much fun ridding Hollywood, he is such a good horse. I told my dad he should invest in like 5 more they we could all come home and drop the grandkids in the arena and they would be fine and not much mess to clean up after. Teegan, Mckenna, Brilyn and Taylor all took their turns showing grandma and grandpa how cool they were.

Brilyn wants to be like BRIDGER so Bad!!!

Ever since Brandi and Jason watched the girls for us when I had surgery,if Brilyn is outside she trys to pee on the fence or by the trees. But if she is inside she will push her stool up to the toilet, take off all clothing and climb on the the toliet backwards to use the potty. Thanks Bridger.... We love you and she is so cute doing it.

Ryker & Parker

We had so much fun visiting with the new babies. Ryker is a couples months old now and looks exactly like his big brother Carter he is so cute and little miss BRILYN wanted nothing more than to just hold the babies. Parker is only a few weeks old and is very loved by all his brothers and sistes.

FINALLY..........

I am so excited that FINALLY this weekend I get to go home to IDAHO and see my 2 new nephews RYKER(Josh and Halley's little boy) and PARKER (Cody and Sammy's little boy).. I am doing nothing but holding babies on saturday, I am going to LOVE every mintue of it... We are also going to get to see Matt and Katie Clay who we haven't see since Brilyn was a newborn. Brian is in need of some MATT time, they have been best buds for along time and NOTHING would ever chanage that. Matt is a great friend...... Plus I want to see if me and Taylor can ride the horses for a mintue or as Brilyn would say AMPA ROPN ICH... That is short for Grandpa got a new horse for roping its name is Stich. so so cute...

SPENDING DADDY'S MONEY

These outfits are what DADDY'S LITTLE GIRLS spent his money on.... Taylor was so excited to try on all of her new school clothes, we tried to do it while Bripie was in the bath but we were sucessful. Brilyn has plenty of clothes but I got feeling guilty buying only clothes for Taylor so she got a few sale items. Brilyn didn't want to miss out on the photo shoot..

SPOLIED LITTLE ONES

BRILYN JOLENE

SHOP TILL THEY DROP

Brittany and I had our 1st lesson on school shopping with Kenna and Tater. It went pretty good. We only had one episode where they began throwing FITS and it was over the Hanna Montana shirts that they wanted 4 of... however these girls can shop after firday night and saturday day they were mad to go home.. Brittany & I told them well if you can get Grandpa or Grandma to give you their VISA's numbers we can go but as for now our BUDGETS are already spent... I can't belive that this is really happening they are going to kindergarten... WOW how time flys

On sunday we took Mckenna, Taylor, Teegan and Brilyn to the monster trucks for the most part they had a blast........ A little tired towards the end... But it was fun
