Long arm of the law

July was rodeo time.
My boys have played cowboys & robbers for the last couple of months.
Too little bandits held me captive for a short period of time, until they were hungry enough to have there lunch..

ouch

I'm not to sure what I was thinking but I did it!! Yes thats right I went and got myself a tattoo. I even talked my husband into getting one so we went together!! Neither of us have one and I have always wanted one and at 30yrs old the time was right(i guess).
I got my tattoo on my foot, the artist says are you sure thats the worst spot to have one done.. I said yes I'm very sure thats where I want it I have given natural birth to 3 almost 10 lbs babies I can handle it!! YA well I almost cried like a big baby, that pain is so different than any other. Three month later my foot is still sore. My husband on the other hand had NO problems. I still have 2 (each of my children) more to do so I will choose wisely

I don't recommend doing it on your feet!!!

Summertime fun

Summer has came and almost gone. And like most of you we have had our share of fun times. Although we were so busy we had NO time for camping:( (that has never happend) Vacations, Mountain drives for the day, kid activities, sleepovers, birthday parties, Rodeo's, Lawn remodeling, and of course work has taken most of our time this year!! But we know we have more years to come..

Sleepy head

Kaden likes to read to his self before nap time. This is what I found when I went to cover him up

A little history

I have brought 3 amazing children into this world since our high school days.

Cheyanne almost 10yrs old, is a very active girl scout, she will try her hand at a week long camp far from home by herself this August. (When she feels how heavy her suitcase is she won't be wondering where mom is anymore!!) Cheyanne will be going into the 5th grade this year, time is going so fast.

Dawson just turned 6yrs old this past march, and has just graduated kindergarten. He has been very active in a few little things (ya know boys they have to try things for a bit to see if they are going to like it.) He's known as our cowboy he did mutton busting( for those of you that are city folk that's riding a sheep) at the Snake River Stampede last year!! Boy does he like his boots and cowboy hat!!! He has tried wrestling, ice hockey and graduated a karate class along with his sister...


Kaden soon to be 4 yrs old is my little rough tuff cream puff. He's 100% daddy's boy. As for him he's really into hockey!! He eats,& sleeps hockey. At 2yrs old he was all ready on the ice skating. Thanks to daddy cause he's a hockey player.

As for me I have just recently got re-married, and enjoying our lives.
I started my own cleaning business back in 05'. Along with becoming a meat cutter for the past 6 years for a local company that is one of the main suppliers to the restaurant industry around the treasure valley. I have just quite the meat cutting job to be with my kids and not have to pay those darn daycare costs.. At the same time I have a Idaho Statesman Route every morning 7 days a week 365 days a year. (It's early morning so I'm home before my husband has to leave for work)
My family also owns a local restaurant that I try and help out with when need be, my mom does the dutch oven catering for the train from Horseshoe Bend to Cascade so I'm one to be there helping for those fireside dinners. I'm very active with my kids in everything that they do, so I try to be... So for me there is little or NO down time. A mother of 3 takes it all...
