Painting Pumpkins


My wonderful husband Jerrmey painted the base coats on my pumpkins!! Thank you!
Jerrmey hates the polka dots, but Dylyn and I love them. I know I'm kind of boring with the brown and tan but I like them. Thank you Leandra for painting your pumpkins so that I would have an idea for mine!!

Sorry About All The Blogging!!

Sorry that today I posted such a wealth of information! I've been trying to slowly wean myself from the computer, and I figured the best way to do this was to go cold turkey almost. I really didn't think that I had anything to blog about until I put my pics on the computer today. So now you know what we've been up to for the past little while. An update on our life: Dylyn is now 26 lbs and 12 oz, probably 27 lbs now. She has just cut her 11th tooth through! So it has only taken her 6 months to get the teeth that she has, WOW! She is talking up a storm, and knows how to say potty and even where it is and what you do with it!! There may be hope! I have not been blogging obviously, and playing on Facebook! I also started aerobics classes a couple of weeks ago and they are kickin my butt. . . If I go to them! ; ) I've been trying to do Christmas shopping since the end of August, which is good, I'm halfway done! For those of you who are wondering, I'm STILL not pregnant, AGAIN. Hopefully soon! Jerrmey has just been working away, a little bit. . . I guess taking vacation from you job doesn't count as working. He's had almost the whole month of October off. He didn't get his bull elk or cow elk this year. And we are still waiting to see if he gets his deer. The deer I really do hope that he gets, I just don't want to have to mount another one!! And yes, after this next week of work for Jerrmey, I'm hoping I can kick him into gear and helping me finish the back bedroom!! So that's what's been going on in a nutshell!

Dylyn's New Shoes




Dylyn found this canister of cereal the other day and wanted some of them. When it was empty she was just playing with it and this is what I found. She had put it on like it was a shoe!! What a silly little girl!


Halloween!!!











As you all know Halloween is tomorrow!! Also you should know that Giraffe Print is Dylyn's favorite, next to polka dots of course, so when it came time for her to pick her costume of course it would be a giraffe!! The cutest giraffe you've ever seen too! She was kind of a corker in these pictures, but that's typical Dylyn. The giraffe costume is almost a little too short for her in the body though, and it is 18-24 months!! She's a pretty beefy baby!

Dylyn, You've Got Some Splainin' To Do!


This is what Dylyn does when our bathroom door is open. She climbs up on her little potty to the big potty and rips all of the tissues out of the box.
And no in this picture she is not sad because she got in trouble, it's because she didn't want to sit there anymore. Like Grandpa Bear says, "Tara doesn't want her to cry!" So definitely she never gets in trouble.

Building Garage W/ Grandpa Bear

This is a picture of Dylyn after a piece of metal fell on her. She was outside with Jerrmey and my Dad and Jerrmey tapped the piece of wood above his head and the brace that was just setting on it fell hitting Dylyn right above the eyebrow. Surprisingly the little gouge didn't bruise or anything. It is healing up quite nicely.

Tinkerbell!!


If any of you know me, you know that I love Tinkerbell!! Well, she has a new movie out and we bought it the other day. I am determined to make Tinkerbell Dylyn's favorite!! It was such a cute movie, and Dylyn actually liked it, not loved it yet though. She's just not that interested in sitting and watching anything yet.

Book Cliffs Hunt 2008


This is our camping/hunting trip in the Book Cliffs with Mallary and Tim. We left on Friday the 17th and came home on the 19th. Tim shot his deer on Sunday morning, just in time!

The babies loved the stairs in the camper, Mallary and I did not love them so much. Thank you again to Jeff and JoAnn for letting us borrow your rockin' awesome camper that will sleep an army!
Dylyn and Treycin were a little sick of being in the camper all weekend, so we let 'em loose outside.They also loved to ride the 4-wheelers with their Daddies!




Our lovely camp, too bad it took us 3 hours to get there!!! Yuck what a long ride!
























Fall!!

So yes I know it's been fall for quite some time, but I just haven't been in the bloggin' mood!! So today I'm playing catch up on all of the things we've been doing.

These are pictures from when Jerrmey and his cousin Josh went elk hunting! They had a really good time but unfortunately did not get their animals. It really is a shame, Jerrmey and I really need two animals for meat and yet another animal for the wall. DANG IT!! ; )

The fall leaves were beautiful so I made him take pictures for me.




This is also the weekend that me and the girls went to Gardner Village!!

Good Luck!!!


Tara, Gina, Merralee

First of all I would like to say sorry to Gina. I know that we never wanted to see this picture of you looking like an invalid again, but it was all I had of Merralee. So today my sister Merralee is going in for Gastric Bypass surgery. I am so excited for her and a little nervous. It has been our goal together to become skinny bittys!! And since I have years of child bearing ahead of me I have given up on me being the first one. Which is totally okay because Merralee deserves it and I am so happy for her. So as I type right now she is probably being prepped for surgery. I am so sad that I am not there. When I left her house yesterday I almost cried because I wanted to be there so bad. But I know that everything will go extremely well and in just a few short months she will be the first Skinny Bitty out of my sisters!! Good Luck and we LOVE you!! I will be waiting to hear how everything went!!

Girls Day Out


This is my Mom, Merralee, Shelby, Witch, Gina and Misty. Mallary and I are taking the pictures. This weekend we went to Gardner Village and Tai Pan Trading. If you haven't been either place then you need to go because they are so much fun. Tai Pan Trading is AWESOME and really pretty cheap. We've made a tradition of going every year. This year and last year it rained, and Rained, and RAINED all day!!!

Afterwards we came back down to Provo and ate at the Brick Oven!! We love that place. While we were there my niece Shelby had the balloon guy make her a Ducky! She is such a goober, but we love her!!
