We spent the weekend camping up by Riggs Lake. It was a blast, and much needed break from all the chaos. Chris and the kids fished every day, and other than that we just relaxed. Becca caught her 1st fish, and they even got to see a bear by the lake.

Hell Week!!
Then on Thurs am Macie and I were taking a nap. I woke up in a panic thinking I had slept for hours and practically ran into the living room. Becca was sitting on the couch and as soon as she saw me started babbling on and on about a snake. I found Chris in Colby's room and he said that he heard Daisy barking like crazy so he opened up the front door and there was a dang rattle snake all coiled up in the grass. He was able to kill it before it struck at him or the dogs- thank goodness. Now every time I look out the front window, Daisy is walking around the yard sniffing it like she is making sure there is no more out there. Magnum has trained her well!! I am so bummed that we have already found them in the yard. Usually it's not until the end of July that we find them out here by our house. Hope this isn't a sign for what the rest of the summer is going to be like!!

Vacation Pictures
Brother Bear walk thru- we watched a show with Koda and Keni, the kids LOVED it.
Mickey's House- the kids were amazed at all the character's house's in Toontown. We got early admission one day to Toontown, and it was so cool. It was one of their favorite things in Disneyland.

Macie is 6 months!!
Well our little one is growing up so fast, I think we might be missing some of it!! She is now 6 months old. All the sudden she is eating food, rolling and scooting around on the floor, yelling, laughing really good, and trying to sit up. Where did the time go??? Anyways here are a few recent pic's of her.
Mr. & Mrs. Cleve Claridge
My brother and Misty got married over the weekend--finally!! It was so pretty, and I wish them all the happiness in the world. They did it real simple at her partents house, but it was decorated just perfect. Chris had the honor of marrying them, yes he is officially a minister. He got online and got his minister licence. Crazy, but cool, he was honored that they asked him to do it. I'm posting a few pic's for Callie since she couldn't be there.
Congrats guys, we love you!!

My Poor Boy
Well my boy had yet another surgery yesterday. They put the ear tubes back in and took the anenoids out. He was pretty mad when we got there, which we expected. He is mad because he has to wear ear plugs again. So I had to go back with him, which I knew was going to be really hard to watch him be put under again, so I just didn't look at his face and held his hand while talking to him. Those of you who have been there, know what I'm talking about- those of you who don't, just trust me and don't watch. When they came to get me when he woke up, he was pretty upset. He just kept crying, and was trying to rip the iv out of his arm. I finally got him calmed down and we got him to drink some water so they could take the iv out. Then he was upset about the pulse ox that was on his finger. He kept saying that the red light was burning his finger and it hurt. He was also refusing to take the pain meds that they had for him. He said he couldn't do it because he didn't know how it would taste. Those of you that know just how picky he is are probably laughing, because that is totally Colby!! So after about an hr of begging, bargaining, and then threatening with him he still refused to take it so they called in a rx for it and let us go. The poor thing was pretty upset from the anesthesia and demerol. I really hate seeing him go thru that, and pray that it doesn't have to happen again. As soon as we got the rx I bribed him with a new monster truck to get him to take the meds. Hey gotta do what you gotta do- I didn't want him to be in pain on the way home!! Well he is doing great now. You wouldn't even know that anything happened. I guess I was worrying because I didn't know what to expect with the anenoids, but all is well.





I had to post this because she does it all the time! She is constantly chewing on her fingers, and when she first puts her fingers in, one always goes in her nose!! It's to funny.
