GOD GAVE ME YOU....

The best little Mama's man was born three years ago today. Okay, he might be a little cranky and far from perfect but...GOD gave me Tripp...right when I needed him. He and I have been two peas in a pod. Not that I love him more ..he just needed me right when I needed some distraction from myself. This last year has been a whirlwind of emotions and excitment..moving,new job and Dad being around a lot more and he has been a little trooper. He went from being home with me most of the time to having to go to day care three days a week for 10 hours...but fortunately we have both 'lived' through it. What would I have done with out my ear infection having, binki usein', funny little man...well the last three years would have been boring without you! Love you! Here are some pictures from the last year....

Jett is 7

Happy Birthday to our first born -- special cowboy!!! You are so awesome...you have changed our lives for the better...LOVE YOU!!!!

Tripp Allen is TWO!

Happy Birthday to my little man! He has been such a joy in our life. He is absolutely hilarious! He is our lil laid back, fun lovin, kind, sweet little guy that everyday wants to just have fun and enjoy life. He is a big Mama's boy but I am NOT complaining. He has been asking everyday for a baby sister...hmmmmm..I have a feeling Jett Henry put him up to that. I look forward to watching you grow my sweet baby, just try to grow up a little slower!:)

Holidays

Our family felt the true Holiday spirit -- Jason and Jett were in a terrible wreck...they were lucky to walk away alive. Jett had a big, ol' shiner on his face and since the wreck he has had nightmares. In the wreck was our new colt...'Lil Jake' his back was broken and had to be put down. That was an eye opening experience and makes you appreciate every moment that you have with your kids.

The rest of the Holidays were fabulous! Best Christmas ever! We had our first Christmas in Mom's new house. It was fun for each of us to have our own room and bathroom and a place for my kids to play. The New Year's Eve was so fun Aunt Shannon, Uncle Donny, Kaylee and Coy all came over. Jason bought the boys party hats, pop-its and kazoos! It was really fun! Here are the pictures!!!

Month worth of fun

Haven't posted in awhile finishing up pro-cert for teaching...trying to keep my horse going, driving back and forth between here and Lagrande....sick kids.....so here are the pictures..

Pendleton Round Up 100 Years

We went to Pendleton and my boys had the best time. It was soooo busy with my Dad and all of his parties for the out going pres...of PLC. It was so fun, but I am still tired from all the moving and shaking we had to do. Jason always loves Pendleton and so do I...it the place we both went to college...so it kinda will always feel like home. My boys LOVE Happy Canyon Jett loved it last year...Tripp thought it was a movie this year...which he calls 'moovie.'

First Day of First Grade

First day of school -- apparently is a killer for me! Am I going to cry every year? I bawled during Kindergarten on the first day -- thought, " Oh, this year I will be much better." Not, so much but at least make-up wasn't rolling down my face. Geez! Jett was pumped loves his teacher Mr.C! Who wouldn't love him? He had to wear full on belt and buckle to the first day of school. This way he's ready in case a rodeo breaks out at school? I don't know but really funny!!! Jett's brother thinks that it is some sorta punishment that he can't go to school.......so here are the first day of school pictures....oh notice the Pendleton Roundup T-shirt...it was a compromise between that and a full on button-up shirt.
