Go Fish!




Addyson got a Go Fish! game from Grammy and she is so funny to watch. Actually, I am not sure if she is the funniest, Kate got pretty into it too. Anyway, it ended up entertaining them for a hour or so.

Camping Trip

Mommy and Addyson
This is so Addy...ornery!!!!
Beautiful and Precious!
Daddy and Addyson

God do I love my new camera! It takes incredible pics, doesn't it!!

We went to camp 14 for 4 days and it was so nice! We had great weather and the best part was that it was quiet and just us. We took off on the 4-wheelers and went on some great rides, went to see the red fish and enjoyed the fire and watched a couple of movies. Phil spent time with Ticker, training him and just doing some bonding. Both Ticker and Tycee loved it. The last night is started to pour and was still raining when we came home. If we didn't have Addy we would have taken off and done some riding in the rain, but I didn't want her to get sick. My mom came up on Saturday and spent some time with us as well. I wish it didn't have to end.

My parents took Addyson to the fair when we got home. They said that she loved the rides. My mom said that when she rode the roller coaster she thought she was laughing so hard that she wasn't breathing. She had her picture taken on the pony and got to go through the petting zoo. And of coarse you all know that my mom didn't have a camera for any of it.

Also, we have more exciting news! Phil made Captain!! I am so very proud of him. When we got to camp on Wednesday night he was like a little kid on crack he was so excited!! It was pretty cute actually. So now it sounds like he will be going to B shift. It will be a change, but that is how it works.

Saturday

Well...Ticker is here. Phil and Nick drove all day yesterday, a total of 821 miles and sat in 3 hours of block up traffice due to a wildfire that had jumped the highway, got home at 5am. Ticker is really good so far. He is adjusting well and is the friendliest little thing. Him and Tycee are getting along well so far too.

Addyson went camping with my parents on Thursday and won't be home until Sunday. I missing her so much. I was by myself the last two nights and I wished so much that she would have been here. My Parents called and said that she was having a blast, but it doesn't make me miss her less. I will be so happy when I see those brown eyes and big smile running to me.

Kate had a game today against Lakeland (Rathdrum). LHS lost 2-1. The girls played pretty well and as usual, I think Kate played great. They are playing CHS on Monday night, so I will take my camera and get some pics at that one.

Well...not alot of anything else going on here. I will take some pics of Ticker and of our soccer game on Monday and them posted.

Addyson Project







I picked up a little project from Crop Paper Scissors, thanks to
Jan and Kristi they turned out so wonderful. They were tons of fun to do. Now, I just need to get them mounted on the wall. I love how there are so many colors that I will have so much to choose from when we finallly build and I get to decorate a room for her. I am now addicted and am going to go pick up letters to do all of the girls names. That is going to be alot of work, but so much fun to see the final product.
