A little family get together for Baileys Birthday.


Ayden and Brenden

All of the adults decided to play football and have a little fun.


Kadie so cute!

Boys still trying to get Aydens water balloons.

Ayden running from the kids because he is the only one with water balloons left!

I filled an entire icechest with water balloons for them to throw and get cooled off.

Bailey just turned eleven and wow has time flown by! We can't believe he is already this old. Seven more years until he graduates! That is scary, it makes me feel that time has flown by and how did it happen so fast. I am so thankful he was our first child he has always been the most loving and genuinely caring. He is a great big brother and role model to all of his siblings. We asked him what he wanted to do for his birthday and he decided go carts would be a fun idea. He invited Walker and away we went to the F 1 Race Factory in Phoenix for the day! We had never been to this one but it was a blast!! The go carts were really fast for the adult about 45 mph and kids were 25 mph I believe. It doesn't seem fast but on a curvy inside track it is. We raced, ate and played arcade games. As you can see in the pictures everyone had such a good time. I would suggest this to anyone that has kids about this age you can't go wrong when its 120 degrees out side and you can race in an air conditioned building.

The 24th of July

In the photo Bailey Dallas, Gavin, Tammy(in the back),Kadie and Ayden. Jeremy's cousins Rick and Tammy pierce let us stay with them for the weekend. We took the truck up to St. Johns for there 24th of July parade our cousin Kent asked Jeremy if he would put the truck in the parade. It is tradition that there is usually water on floats to get the crowd wet and the people in the crowd get the people on the floats wet. All of the kids on the float had such a good time. Everyone was soaked by the end and the kids enjoyed throwing water balloons into the crowds of people. We also ran into Jeremy's uncle Dick, what a surprise. He was just as surprised to see us, expected to see us up north in a parade. I am sure we will be back next year.

Gavin squirtin people!

My beautiful daughter! Some girls wake up the same as they went to sleep, hair not messed up. Not my daughter, every morning and after every nap we are in wonder of how crazy her hair will be! This day was one of the Craziest! I had to take a picture, she has just woken up as you can guess by the confused look on her face. I hope that it gets better the older she gets. This might limit the future boyfriends......but then again Jer will be ok with that.

4th of July in Springerville and Luna.


So, I am the worst at keeping up with pictures and stories but I am trying, it feels as though there is not enough time in the day to do all the things I need to do! With Jeremy working in St. Johns I am a single mother during the week and boy is it exhausting! We did get to spend the weekend of July 4th in Springerville with some friends of ours and we had so much fun. The parade there is awesome we loved it! The kids couldn't get enough candy, there pockets were bulging and in Safford they don't allow you to throw candy so our kids thought it was the best. There was a float that was the statue of liberty and it was HUGE, they made it so that it would fold down when it went over the power lines. It was the hit of the parade the crowd loved it. Our friends Wayne and Roxanne Clifford have land in Luna so we were able to camp for the weekend. The only thing I didn't plan for was getting sun burned. Who thinks of sunscreen when you go camping? I guess I should have as we all got really sunburned. We brought our kids four wheelers and they were able to ride around during the day. Jerry and Julie Rojas came with us and there kids. Jobi had not ridden one alone before and I think we all had a heart attack every time he rode! He was so tiny on this four wheeler and I think it was a little hard to get the hang of it. I think all we said to the poor kid was STOP and SLOW DOWN! He eventually got it so it was a little easier for him to ride.

What cute kids!
