My BIG Helpers!!!!

So last week I decided that I wanted to Paint My Laundry Room....I really hated that color blue. I went and bought paint and when I started painting it on the wall I hated it. The first color I picked out was I thought a really suttle taupe color. When I started to paint it, It was like a pinky Mauve color. I hated it so I went back to Home Depot to see if they could mix it alittle darker, less pink. They really couldn't do the color I wanted to so I completely switched gears...I picked a Plum color. Dylan wanted to help me paint it and then Hayden wanted to help too. They did a pretty good job....Hayden got tired, but Dylan stayed up until about 11:30 Sat night to help me finish. We then got up early the next day to finish it. Greg even put in new track lighting for me so I have more light in there to do my Hair clients. I really like the color. The funny thing is, Dylan liked painting so much that on Monday, he painted the downstairs bathroom too...He was able to pass off a Merit badge for scouting for helping me. We had a fun time together!

Breaking Dawn Premier Party!

I went with Trina to take Some of our Friends girls to the Breaking Dawn Premier Party. Trina and the girls all made t-shirts. Trinas shirt said on the front: Im Edwards Type....on the back it said A positive. The girls shirts said: If Bella Choose Edward, Im first in line for Jacob or If Bella chooses Jacob, Im first in line for Edward! The Little girls in the front Sydnee, Trinas Daughters shirt said: My mom is a Twilight Freak. Halles shirt said: My sisters are Twilight Freaks.
The funny thing is Dylan wanted to go with me and the girls, which I thought was really funny. Syd and Halle had a ball chasing him around the store. I think he was loving it too though.
My Sister In Law Hailie went with us too.

Layci's Band....Just kiddin Colton!

At the Park, The same Park as the water toys they had these cool music toys... they really made noise. It was cute to watch the kids playing on them. Zack really liked the Marimba. I think he is going to follow in Uncle Marks footsteps.

A Day At The Park! Fun In The Sun!

For Our Weekly visit With Rylee. Brad and Jamie and I met her and Her Aunt Marilyn at Settlers Park here in Meridian. (We call it the Pirate Park) This year they added some pretty cool stuff. All of the Water Feature stuff is new. The kids kept cooled off. They would run from the Water park to the real park to play on the toys and back. It was really good to see Rylee. She was soooo excited to see Layci. She was even more excited to see Jamie. When Jamie got there, she went for a bee line to her screaming her name and jumped into her arms. She has really missed her! They had sooo Much fun. At the end of the time,
She asked if I could bring Layci next
Week again too. These Pictures turned
out soo cute. As you can see Rylee
was anticipating the Water to fall on them
It was fun watching them. I think this was Thier
favorite thing at the park. They would then
Lay on the warm cement to dry off! soo Cute.

My Brother Blake!!!!

Ok...So this is my younger brother Blake. I know, I know, He looks older than me huh! (just kiddin) Anyway. He entered this contest to go to Ozzfest in Dallas awhile ago. Well he won! Out of like 20,000 people. He gets two round trip airfare tickets, A Limo ride to and from the concert. He gets VIP passes to see some of the bands not to mention an autographed guitar and Amp from the lead guitarist from Metallica. He also gets a bunch of clothes, they feed him etc....and a bunch more stuff I can't remember. He was approved for a press pass so he can get on stage and take pictures of some of the bands. He is so lucky. He has decided to take my youngest brother Chris with him. I think it is really cool. I wouldn't want to go see Ozzfest, but he likes that kind of music. This will be his 4th time seeing it. Have fun Blake and Chris!

CARDS ANYONE!

This summer we have been playing cards with our friends. We play a game called Nerts. It is sooo much fun. Trina and I ALWAYS beat Greg and Jeff. They get sooo mad. I think the only time they beat us, we caught them cheating!









Me and Trina! We are Awesome


















Greg and Jeff: Nerts or NERDS!
You Be the Judge!

Dylan

Colton....here is your picture of Dylan. He wanted to grow his hair out long, since that is the style. I told him he could until he turned 12 in Oct. So he has been growing it out since like March. Well he was outside the other day when it was 103 and came in and said, "Mom, Cut my hair! It is too Hot outside for long hair!" I will be cutting it pretty soon. I don't think he will like to wear a football helmet with that mop!
