St.George 2011

The thing that amazes me the most about having children is the unconditional LoVe you have for them. It's a LoVe that words can't express how much LoVe you feel towards them! You can't get enough of them, you think everything they do is stink in cute and funny, you try to capture every moment so you can savor it forever! We just LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these boys SO... much!!! xoxo

Like father like son...watch out!

Our little family:)  I'm so glad that we do things that create memories that we can treasure forever!  I love you babe and am so thankful for everything we have become together!:) xoxo

There's my smile I like to see:)

K- so their is water between the mountains of rock and their was this rope you had to hold onto in order to climb around this bend...  I was having a bit of an anxiety attack because my sweet, sweet husband decided it would be a great idea to hold one kid at a time and take them across the mountain to the other side; never mind the fact that their is freezing water below and if he made one mistake and slipped, the babies could have drowned.  I think this was seriously The SCARIEST thing I've ever done, only because of the "what if's and danger factor that came into play"  Never again will I take my babies on a hike that you have to climb over water and hang onto a rope to get around a bend on a mountain.  Ah.............Everything was fine and everyone was safe and sound so all is well, but even writing about it now gives me a bit of anxiety:)

Dallas sure does love his Grandpa Speakman!

Thanks for carrying me the whole time Gramps:)

Hey little man, can I get a smile???:)

Welcome home uncle Presto!  It sure was fun to hang out with you on this trip:) 

Hey Ty, Ty:)  You are so sweet!  Mommy and Daddy love you so much!  We love that you have such determination but yet you have such a sweet, pleasant presence.  Kisses!

The whole Speakman gang...except C-man; we missed you!

Hey mom, just chiln in the back by the scooter:)

So stinkin cute!

Round 1 for the CO2 Lazer

January 2012

Dallas had to have surgery for his little "rash" on his leg today.  He was such a great patient for the sweet nurses and Doctor!  

We love you so much little buckaroo!!!

We are so proud of you!

And after he came out of surgery the nurses said that he guzzled down 2 full sippy cups of apple juice and to their surprise kept it down.  I'm thinking he drank so much juice because his sweet mother doesn't buy him juice so he probably wanted to drink as much as he could before he had to go home:)  I did buy him juice for his recovery!  I'm not that strict:)  This little boy is the sweetest thing in the world!

And then he got to go for a ride in a wagon!  So fun, considering he had never been in a wagon before.

We sure do love you pal!!!  

Christmas 2011

Dallas:  "All I want for Christmas is a big gun!"

Looks like someone was on Santa's Nice list:)

Shane and I got new cowboy boot stockings:)  "Thanks Grandma and Grandpa, we love them.  They do look like the real thing when hung right." 

Austin and Tyler were so excited to get their very own 4-wheeler!

Cutest thing ever!  Dallas got a guitar and he and Shane were jamin out to Chilin On A Dirt Road and Easy...

I finally got a vacuum that actually sucks; in a good way:)

Thanks babe!

Merry Christmas!!!

Austin and Tyler are 1

I can't believe our cute little monkeys are already 1! The time has been going by so fast as of late, it makes me nervous for when we really get busy... We love these two little guys so much and have so much fun with them! Tyler is a determined little squirt who CAN and WILL get to anything he wants! He also has this new high high high, did I say HIGH? pitched scream that he's been doing when he's excited. So funny, except when you're in a crowd where everyone else is being quite:) Austin is MR. FUN! He's so easily entertained and full of life and will always give you a smile:) We are absolutely loving every second we get with these little guys and want them to know that we love them SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much! Ah, it's crazy the amount of love one can have for their children!

Las Vegas Ragnar

This was my second relay race. I only knew Aubrey on our team but met some really wonderful people that I now consider great friends! We had such a fun time and everyone was very supportive:) I would love to do the oregon coast Ragnar next! We'll see:)

Pumpkin Patch 2011

We went to the cutest little pumpkin patch, took a little hay ride behind the big tractor, got to pick out a pumpkin, took some fun pictures, walked through a cute little maze, rode back to the farm house, enjoyed some ice cream, bought some honey crisp apples and delicious raspberries to make jam! What a fun day!!! :)

ELK HUNT 2011
