A DAY AT THE DESERT

My boys! It was such a beautiful day to go and recreate! We jumped up early on Saturday morning packed a few things up and went on our way. It was so much fun. It is the perfect time to go it's not to hot and you still have some grass in the "desert". We picked a perfect spot to go...

Our lady...

Our little family in the desert...looks like a "real desert" huh?

" big guy on a little bike"...those who watch snl will know what I'm talking about!

so dang cute! so young, so free...

Our little ones... beautiful Saturday morning...

SPOILED? Yes!

So, I had to take a picture of this...My sweet husband did this for me the night before my birthday. He had the candles lit and soft classical music playing. He knows how much I love MY alone time! He bought me some great decorating/design books to read.It was so lovily!!

Happy Birthday NYCOLE!!!!!!

Gangsta [ made me take it down...this one was good too]

"Happy Birthday to ma ma", as I heard it this morning from Cole, Alayda, and Meryn... What a wonderful mother they have. She always, always, always has a clean house not only clean but sanitized (she uses this steam machine on everything two times a day). I like to tease her by saying she has OCD therefore I need to test her by leaving my cereal bowl, cloths, keys, and various other things out just to see if she will pick it up(my excuse to be lazy)! Nycole is special to us to because she has the patience and stamina to care for 5 little ones and me too! She is always spending one on one with the kids reading, dance, baseball, school, homework, walks, park time, and she has still has time for her church calling and being my personal secretary! Wow I'm getting tired from just talking about all that she does. Luckily she has me to help her with all that stuff! If you notice there are no pictures of Nycole on her blog! I get mad at her cause she always posts the ugliest pictures of me... you know pictures of me sleeping, or in my G's half dead, postings of my teeth and all kinds of weird stuff! So here is Nyc at her finest! Don't get mad at me Nyc I just think your cute all the time! Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Bryce!

Ahh...such a beautiful smile! Happy Birthday Booa, boo, Howie, Howa, love, lover, babe and baby. How many names can I have for this handsome wonderful man? A lot. He turns 35 and amazingly he is still alive! I want to gloat on him for a minute...Bryce would do anything for anyone and he is always trying to help others. He is a source of knowledge and has a huge heart. He is an excellent husband and a wonderful father. He ALWAYS wants to be with the children and I am always making him take me out on a date!:) He can do anything and if he can't he will read about how to do something and get it done. He is a mover. He is my energizer bunny. He keeps going and going. I am grateful to have Bryce in my life. He is a great example to me. I love you Booa!(please don't hate me for going off on you!)

He is a NATURAL leader...he always leads the way. (thanks Booa!)

He teaches the kids young...He is an EXCELLENT rider. Too scary for me to see...especially when he gets together with his brother!

Ahh...this is his little "mini me". Alayda is a daddy's girl. She is the first to wake up and say good morning to daddy, to hug and kiss him, to scratch his back, to bring him treats, to stay up until 12am and talk to him!(she wakes up to come and sleep with us in the middle of the night). She is always glad to see him.

Bryce loves the "outdoors". This is where he is free and belongs. ( I love this picture of him doesn't he look handsome?!!)

Those who KNOW Bryce knows that this is what he does in his spare time. Always researching and reading a book on line.

Bryce ALWAYS has helping hands...

Bryce and Cole out shooting. Being the great father that he is!
