WE HEADED TO WYOMING

It was stinkin cold up in Wyoming, but we still had a blast!

The day before Christmas Eve I couldn't find Bridger anywhere, and then I look in my parents room and I see a big hump under there blankets and this is what I found! We had to keep a good eye on him after this. Little Stinker!

A kid in Heaven!

A dog in Heaven! This is my parents new cute basset hound!Her name is Sophie, but Bridge calls her SoapE!

So we left the guys to watch the kids, and this is what I come home too. Look what's in Foster's hand!

My brother law Eric plays the guitar and sings, and he's awesome. He sang some great songs and Bridger couldn't get enough of it. He kept saying more songs more songs!

OUR CHIRSTMAS MORNING DRIVE BACK TO UTAH!

The weather was awful! People all over the road.

We spent Christmas day with Mike's Fam. We had some great Korean food and lots of fun!

This is Mike's sister Brook. We had Brook for Christmas and Mike decided to give her a leatherman for Christmas. He went and picked out the present without me, I about died giving it to her!

COUSIN CLARKS WEDDING One of my favorite cousins got married on the 27th. He married a great girl named Michelle.

This was at the luncheon. If you look across the table you'll see my cousin Al doing peek a boo to Bridger. Bridger laughed so hard everytime he would do it. Look at the sweet pic below!

Al doing peek a boo to Bridge. I love this kid! Sweet Foster!

I love these boys!

Foster 4 Months!

Sweet Foster just turned 4 months. The doc said he is defiantly quite healthy. He's almost 19 pounds and is in the 99% for weight and height. My Grandma Parker claims he looks just like my Dad.. He really has been a pretty darn good baby. He's always content just hanging out, and he loves when Bridger comes around and talks to him and holds him. I look back to the time we spent in the hospital, and I am very greatful he recovered so quickly and is a healthy happy baby. We love you buddy!

Cali Trip in 24 Hours!

My Mom and I and the 2 boys headed to Cali to go see Eric my brother in laws graduation.(Mike and my Dad had to work) Eric is now a Chiropractor Doctor! We left Friday night and came back Saturday night.. It was a little crazy with the 2 chillens because we forgot the stroller, my Mom has a broken arm, and we had to carry Chubba the Hut in his carseat and all our crap! Bridger was sooooo excited to fly on the airplane. The whole plane ride he kept saying. "Oooooh we so high and uh oh are we going to fall?"

For some reason we all woke up at 4:30 in the morning, and we were stuck in a little room because everyone else was sleeping all over the house. So we had to come up with some great entertainment for 3 hours in a little room.

Congrats Eric and Tagen! We are so excited for you guys, and we can't wait for you to be so close to us.

This is what happens when you try and fly with a 2 year old in less then 24 hour period of flying there.. He did pretty good though, and of course Foster was our perfect baby.

Bridger layed in the middle of the airport floor for an hour..(are plane was delayed) He was pretty wiped out.

It was worth it though, we had a great time spending time with Eric's family, shopping, and eating at Inn & Out, and seeing Eric's hardwork and dedication through school finally come to an end, so he can do what he loves.

MOTHERHOOD!

I feel like being a Mom I always have a whilrwind of emotions! Most of the time it's happiness. I feel so excited when Bridger remembers to say his peese and thank you's, when he snuggles and hugs me just because, when he runs down a big field kicking the ball, and when he learns new words, AND, when Foster gives me his big smiles and laughs, when he poops after 2 weeks!, and when he cuddles against me and falls asleep...

BUT it's not always easy.. Sometimes you get days where you feel like screaming! Like when: Bridger is hitting Foster with a plastic bat, or telling me "Nooooooope Stay here" and pushes me away, or when Foster is up all night. I guess if it was always perfect then we wouldn't be as grateful for the good stuff, right? I'm just needing to get this all out because I'm running on no sleep with Bridger and Foster both being up ALL last night, and being sick at the same time.. So on days that I just feel like screaming(like today:) I just have to remember how blessed I am to have these little stinkers in my life!

T'is the Season!

We headed up to Wyoming to take care of the animals, and we decided it was a good time to pick out our Christmas Tree. I love this time of year! Bridge had a blast picking out the perfect tree with Mike..

We had a fun day relaxing together as a fam.

Back in the saddle again! Ahhh it felt so good to get back on my boy Jack again. It has been waaay to long.

When we got Jack 5 years ago he was really scared and would spook at everything. We're pretty sure the owners before us abused him. I started riding him everyday and we got this bond that is unexplainable.

This is where Bridge wants to be the whole day.

or Else.....

Bridger these last few weeks has been obsessed with playing sports. He tells me everyday "Mom play soccer, Fooball, or Bat Ball" It's fun that he is wanting to do all these sports all of a sudden. Too bad Winter is coming now!

I love these boys, even though I have days where I'm surrounded by big farts, catching Bridger peeing in the refrigerator, poop on the floor, puke on everything I own, no sleep, and many more fun stuff. It's all worth it, and I'm greatful and know I'm very blessed to have them as my family! I hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Can you say- BooYah!

What a sweet game we had. I was surrounded by BYU fans(including my husband) the whole game. Bridger was on my side though. He now says "GO UTES" and that's all I have to say!
