I promise she will play with you all day until its hers and your nap time...

I can't promise you she'll always know quite how to hold and play nice with you...

But I can promise she'll love you more then any little girl ever could!

YEAH YEAH MAYBE THAT WAS A LITTLE CORNY, BUT I CAN'T HELP BUT BE EXCITED THAT THANKS TO OUR FRIEND HEATHER WE HAVE FOUND A REPLACEMENT FOR SIGGY! WE ASKED RYLEE WHAT SHE WANTED TO NAME HIM AND SHE SAID MR. THEN SHE KEPT CALLING HIM MR. NEW KITTY BUT IT SOUNDED LIKE MR NEWKi SO THATS HOW HE GOT HIS NAME! HE'S SUPER SWEET AND AS YA CAN TELL LETS RY LOVE ON HIM THE WHOLE TIME SHE'S AT GRANDMAS PLAYIN! THANKS MOM FOR LETTING OUR PETS HAVE SUCH A NICE HOME IN YOUR BACK YARD! WE OWE YA! I ALWAYS LOVED GROWING UP WITH KITTENS SO THANKS FOR LETTING US KEEP OURS AT YOUR PLACE SO RYLEE CAN GROW UP WITH THEM TOO!

pretty pretty!

I'M PRETTY SURE I LOVE THESE PRETTY LITTLE GIRLS WAY MORE THEN THEIR PRETTY LITTLE SELVES WILL EVER BE ABLE TO KNOW!

SUMMER FUN ANYONE?

THIS HAS TO BE ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE PICTURES!

WE'VE BEEN HAVING A FUN FUN SUMMER! WE'VE SPENT TONS OF TIME AT PALISADES...

TAYA AND WHITNEY DENTONS LITTLE BOY RYDER ARE 2 DAYS APART. THEY'RE BOTH SUCH STINKING GOOD BABIES!

WE'VE GONE A LOT OF TIMES WITH WHITNEY AND HER KIDS OAKLEY AND RYDER, AND THEN WE WENT ONCE WITH MY SISTER AMY AND HER BOYS TOO. WHOEVER WE GO WITH THOUGH RYLEE HAS TONS AND TONS OF FUN!

WE'VE HAD FUN GOING ON WALKS TO SUBWAY WITH PA PA,

WE'VE MADE A FUN TRIP UP THE MOUNTAIN TO LOOK AT THE FISH IN THE BIG WATER!

WE WENT TO THE POOL ONCE BUT RYLEE WOULDN'T WEAR A LIFE JACKET AND WANTED TO RUN INTO THE DEEP BY HERSELF SO IT WAS MORE WORK THEN FUN. PALISADES IS EASIER CAUSE SHE'LL ONLY WADE OUT A LITTLE WAYS.

WE'VE MET NEW COUSIN MAKAYLA,

WE'VE PLAYED IN THE RAIN...WHICH WAS NEVER ENDING IN JUNE!

AND WE'VE HUNG OUT AT HOME WITH OUR BUDDIES!

SO FAR ITS BEEN A FUN RELAXED SUMMER! DEREKS ALMOST DONE WITH HIS LAST PRE REQ CLASS AND THEN IN SEPTEMBER WE'LL START APPLYING TO RN PROGRAMS! THE GIRLS ARE DOING GOOD RYLEES SUPER BUSY ALL THE TIME AS USUAL. SHE'S SUCH A SMART LITTLE GIRL! SHE LOVES READING AND SINGING, AND EATING POPCYCLES! I'LL BE EXCITED WHEN SHE FINALLY LEARNS THAT BEING A BULLY SUCKS THOUGH! SHE'LL BE SUPER SWEET TO KIDS SHE'S PLAYING WITH THEN OUT OF NO WHERE SHE'LL JUST WHOP THEM OR TAKE THEIR TOYS...THEY DON'T CALL THEM TERRIBLE 2'S FOR NOTHING I GUESS! AS FOR TAYA, SHE IS HONESTLY THE SWEETEST BABY AND IS STILL HAVING NO PROBLEMS GROWING AT ALL! :) THERE YA HAVE IT THE FIRST HALF OF SUMMER! :)

YAY FOR AMERICA...& BIG FIREWORKS!

HAPPY 4th FROM OUR LITTLE PYRO!


WE HAD A FUN 4TH SPENT HERE AT HOME! WE DIDN'T DO MUCH BUT ITS ALWAYS A BREATH OF FRESH AIR TO CELEBRATE A HOLIDAY AND HAVE A DAY DIFFERENT FROM THE REST!






WE WENT TO MANTI'S LITTLE FESTIVAL WHICH FOR MOST OF IT RY WAS A GRUMP...BUT LEAVE IT TO UNCLE TONY TO SHOW HER THE ROCKETS! ONCE HE SHOWED HER THOSE SHE HAD A BLAST! HE'S SUCH A FUN UNCLE AND SHE ABSOLUTELY LOVES HIM! I ALWAYS LOVE HOW HE'LL PLAY WITH HER JUST LIKE HE'S A 2 YEAR OLD TOO! SERIOUSLY THE BOTTOM LEFT PICTURE SAYS IT ALL! THEY WERE BOTH RUNNING BACK TO SHOOT OFF THE ROCKET AGAIN AND HE MADE SURE TO RUN JUST LIKE HER! :) THEN OF COURSE WE ATE WHERE ELSE BUT FREDS!

LATER THAT NIGHT AFTER MUCH NEEDED NAPS FOR THE GIRLS WE WENT TO MANTI HIGHSCHOOLS FOOTBALL FIELD AND WATCHED FIREWORKS! I LOVED LISTENING TO THE SONGS WATCHING THE FIREWORKS SHOOT OFF IN THE SKY WITH THE TEMPLE BELOW. IT MIGHT SOUND FUNNY BUT THERE WAS AN AWESOME SPIRIT THERE I KEPT GETTING THE CHILLS AS I SAT WITH MY FAMILY AND WATCHED MY GIRLS FACES LIGHT UP AT THE FIRWORKS. I FEEL SO LUCKY AND BLESSED TO LIVE IN THIS COUNTRY!

I LOVE TAKING PICTURES WITH DAD ESPECIALLY ON HOLIDAYS...IN THE BACK OF MY MIND I COULDN'T HELP BUT THINK THIS WILL PROBABLY BE MY LAST 4TH OF JULY WITH DAD SO IT WAS FUN TO HAVE HIM THERE WITH US WATCHING FIREWORKS EATING JUNK FOOD AND LISTENING TO PATRIOTIC SONGS!

AUNT TONYA CAME AND SPENT THE 4TH WEEK WITH US WHICH WAS SO FUN...AT LEAST FOR US! ;) THEY'RE FUN BUT SUCH A ARM AND LEG FULL...NOT JUST A HAND FULL!

I CAUGHT RY OUTSIDE PRACTINCING WALKING IN TONYAS HIGH HEALS SHE'S SO CUTE WHEN SHE WANTS TO BE!...AND THERE YA HAVE IT OUR 4TH OF JULY WEEKEND 2009! YAY FOR AMERICA!

bye Siggy

I'VE ALWAYS BEEN SUCH A SOFTY FOR ANIMALS AND ABOUT A YEAR AGO, WHEN A TINY BLACK KITTY SHOWED UP AT OUR APT DOOR MEOWING THERE WAS NO EXCEPTION! RYLEE FELL IN LOVE IMMEDIATLY AND LUGGED THE POOR THING EVERYWHERE...AND HE LET HER! WE DECIDED TO NAME HIM SIGGY. AFTER A FEW MONTHS OF SIGGY LIVING IN OUR LITTLE APT WE DECIDED TO MOVE HIM TO BIGGER AND BETTER PLACES...BONKAS HOUSE! THAT WAY RYLEE COULD STILL SEE HIM BUT HE'D HAVE MUCH MORE ROOM TO PLAY, PLUS THE LAST STRAY KITTY I BROUGHT HOME IN HIGH SCHOOL, BALOO, STILL LIVED AT MY MOMS AND NEEDED A FRIEND! SIGGY ENDED UP BEING ONE OF THE BEST AND SWEETEST CATS EVER, AND WE'VE HAD A TON OF CATS GROING UP IN THE BLAUER HOUSE! ALL THE GRANDKIDS LOVED HIM AND HE'D LET THEM ALL CARRY HIM AROUND EVEN WHEN HE WAS WAY TOO BIG FOR THEM TO HOLD. EVERYTIME RYLEE CAME TO GRANDMAS SHE'D ASK FOR SIGGY. WELL LONG STORY SHORT MY MOM CALLED ME YESTERDAY TO TELL ME THAT SHE HAD FOUND SIGGY HIT BY A CAR EARLIER IN THE MORNING. I KNOW IT MIGHT SOUND SILLY BUT I HAD TO GO FOR A NICE LONG DRIVE TO CRY CAUSE I DIDN'T WANT RYLEE TO KNOW. I'M GLAD RYLEE IS TOO YOUNG TO COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENED BUT I'M STILL SO SAD FOR HER. IF ANYONE HAS OR KNOWS SOMEONE WHO HAS KITTENS THAT NEED A HOME, WE'RE ON THE HUNT FOR A SIGGY JR! SORRY FOR SUCH A LONG POST ABOUT A CAT IT WAS RYLEES FIRST LITTLE PET, I NEEDED TO ADD IN THE POST FOR MEMORIES :)

hey mr...um turkey sandwich!

OK SO I JUST HAD TO POST MY FAVORITE THING RY DID THIS WEEK. I USUALLY JUST PUT HER FUNNY LITTLE QUOTES ON THE SIDE OF MY BLOG BUT THIS ONE IS MAIN POST WORTHY...AT LEAST IT IS TO ME, HER DOTING MOMMY! :)

SO WE'RE EATING AT FREDS OUR FAVORITE SANPETE RESTARAUNT. WE'RE EATING OUR FOOD AND RY'S JUST RUNNING AROUND THEN I LOOK OVER AND SHE'S STANDING ON A LEDGE THING THAT PUTS HER HIGH ENOUGH TO SEE OVER THE ORDERING COUNTER...OUT OF NO WHERE SHE SAYS TO THE BOY BEHIND THE COUNTER "HEY MR. (SHE PUTS HER FINGER ON HER CHIN LIKE SHE'S PONDERING SOMETHING REALLY IMPORTANT) THEN SAYS "UM TURKEY SANDWICH!" THEN SHE TURNS AND YELLS TO ME "MOM, YOU WANT TURKEY SANDWICH!? WELL BETTER WAIT, UM ITS KINDA HOTT!" I ONLY WISH YOU COULD'VE HEARD HOW SHE SAID IT AND SEEN HER FUNNY FACIAL EXPRESSIONS! MAN DOES THIS KID CRACK ME UP!
