Just the weekend!!

Well this weekend was spring break for the boys. It is a good thing the weather wasn't to bad. Mike had a sleep over at his friend Brandon's house. They said they stayed up all night playing video games. Brandon and his brother Jessy walked mike home that next day (late afternoon). Later that evening Mike and I played a little kick ball. Colten was on both of our teams and Carson just ran when ever on of us took off. It was a lot of fun, even though mike kicked my but!!Taylor got to go Skiing with the scouts up at Brian head on Friday. He has never been. I had him take my camera so I could have some pictures, but he didn't take any pictures. He said he tried snowboarding first but it was to hard dragging that big board around. He did like skiing even though he ate it a few times. He said he fell one time and his skies went down hill and his poles went up hill and of course he landed in the middle of it all. He was all pumped up when he got home that night (11:00 pm ) I couldn't get him to go to bed. That next morning which was Saturday, We all got up and cleaned the house. Robert went for a horse back ride all day!! Me and the boys played outside a little until the stupid wind started to blow, it was a long day!! Sunday afternoon Roberts parents came up for a early dinner. They try to get up here once a month. It is always fun when we get together. Robert and his dad played golf on the WII. They get into it and it is so dam funny, Shauna and I just laugh and tease them when they miss. They left around five or so. I bought the movie Twilight so we all sat down and watched it, in mom and dads room on our bed. We all curled up and hung out. The movie was ok not as good as it was hyped up to be but not bad. After the movie I looked outside and it was snowing. What the hell, I thought it was spring!! So today which is Monday I am doing a post and the boys are playing Medal of Honor. It is freaking cold outside and at least a inch of snow. HAHA happy spring break!! That's ok it was a good weekend. As soon as it gets warmer we are going to start hiking and doing more outside and I just cant wait. I have the worst case of spring fever!!! I am ready for green grass and planting my garden and lots of flowers.

Michael Turns Ten


Mike had a Friday the 13th Birthday, so I tried to make it as much fun as possible for him. Mike invited a few of his friends over for a party, unfortunately only one showed up. Brandon is mikes best friend and I swear they should have been twins! We started the party out with Video Games, presents, and playing with balloons. The balloons were so huge and of course they all POPPED!! HAHAHA. While the kids were playing I made mikes cake. They heard what I was doing and had to come help. We added some food coloring and the kids mixed it all in.



At this point we started the experiments for the party. The first one we did was vinegar, baking soda, and water in a plastic bottle. The bottle I used was to tall so it didn't blow up like it was suppose to but it was still fun. We next took some milk, dish soap, and food coloring. The soap makes the food coloring move away from it and makes for some pretty neat designs. As you can see I think they got more color on there hands then anything.





The cake was done by this point and Taylor and Brandon wanted to decorate it so I let them do there worst! It turned out really cute. They used two large lemon heads for eyes and a mint for a nose, they then added licorice for a mouth and a fruit roll up for a tough. When I served it up with ice cream I think they were more excited about eating the candy! Brandon was able to stay the night and they played Video Games tell midnight. I had to make them go to bed cause Brandon had a wrestling match at eight in the morning. They had so much fun. Mike is turning into such a great kid and has such a big heart. I am so proud to say I am his MOM. Robert and I have watched him go from a shy kid to a out going full of life young man. He loves wearing his cowboy boots and hanging out with his dad. He wants to be able to ride a horse by the time he is eleven so Robert is working on helping him get over his fear of horses. I love that all my kids look up to there dad so much. So this time next year I hope to do a post of Mike on a horse. Happy Birthday mike and I hope this next year brings you everything you want. We love you MOM and DAD!!!!

Mike playing with Rex

Well while Taylor was working with the horse, Mike decided to build a hut out of the hay and pallets. He had one of our dogs (REX) with him. This kids loves his dogs!! I took a few other pictures but they all turned out blurry, I hate when that happens! He is so funny, he would rather build a hut then ride a horse. One of these days I will get him to get on a horse with out his dad being on it with him. Oh mike you are my silly little boy and you will always be my mycola!!!

**Taylor back on a horse**

Well the weather was so nice this weekend we decided to get Taylor back on a horse. Monday when Robert got home from work he grabbed Taylor and the saddle and headed out. Taylor carried the saddle out to the pasture, that thing weighs for than he does LOL!!! Robert worked with him on catching our horse and putting the bridle on her, then he showed him how to walk behind a horse. Taylor was so excited to do this. Taylor is finally getting tall enough to put the saddle on all by himself. This was the first time we had him put the the headstall on by himself. After all this hard work he was ready to get on and ride.


We had Taylor wear his bull ridding gear just to help boost his confidence. Also because Girl can have a big attitude sometimes. I asked if it helped and he said yes. Taylor said he wasn't worried about falling off as much. Taylor needs to work on raining but other than that he did really well.




Taylor did so good and Girl listened really well. He rode for about a hour or so. Girl started to get a little attitude there at the end of the ride. She started to kick a little towards the end of the ride. But Taylor rode it out. He said it helped having his Dad right by his side. Taylor's Dad and I are so proud of him and cant believe how big he is getting. This deer season, if Taylor is doing good, his Dad and him might take the horses out on the hunt.
