My other half!!

Melissa urged me to brag on my husband so here it goes!! I love my husband for MANY reasons but I thought I would try to narrow it down to 10!!




1. First and foremost... I find my husband VERY sexy! Whether he's just wearing a t-shirt, shorts and flip flops or dressed up to go out, he's equally sexy!



2. He's constantly making me laugh! On MANY occasions we have both laughed so hard that we were both in tears!




3. He is an AMAZING father and our kids totally adore him! They are always playing and running around the house making noise and I love it!




4. He lets me sleep in everyday on his weekends!! He gets up with the kids and feeds them breakfast and usually has a plate waiting for me!




5. He helps me out A LOT with the house work! He will wash clothes, sweep, mop and change poopy diapers... just to name a few!




6. He is all about family. He will just call his sisters, mom or dad and just chat about nothing but keeps great relationships with all of them! He lost his little sister when he was in the 8th grade and made a promise to himself to always let family know he loves them because once they're gone he wants to know that they knew that he loved them.

(this picture is missing Amy, but he loves her too!)



7. He is a die-hard BOISE STATE fan! Win or Lose, he stands behind them!



8. He gives us a great life by risking his life everyday.




9. He LOVES the Holidays and gets almost as excited as I do to put out the Christmas decorations!

10. He loves me for me.(and it's a good thing cuz he's stuck with me for ETERNITY!!)
Even when I'm cranky he's always there to cheer me up. I love you babe!!

Boise State Football!

So it's football season again! My husband is from Idaho and has always been a huge Boise State Broncos fan! So naturally we had to get the kids new shirts to go along with the new season!

Bowler Reunion!

We spent Labor Day at a Bowler Reunion! This year it was held at Tresa and Raoul Leavitt's (my mom's sisters). It was a lot of fun to get to see some of my cousins that I haven't seen in years! The day was spent swimming, eating and visiting! With the Bowler bunch you are bound to have a good time! Me, Christopher, Nino, Gma
Davis, Alex, Allie, Keeks, Camerdoodle

Ma's new house and Hank!

I keep thinking that I need to post something, but I'm just getting around to it! With my mom moving, a new puppy and 3 very active kids, my time is limited! My moms new house!
This is our new dog Hank! He's a Boxer and the kids really love him! Chris and I have mixed emotions about him! He's super cute, we're just trying to get him trained!

6 months!

It has been a whole 6 months since I had little Christopher! I can't believe how fast time flies! I think with every kid time just flies faster and faster! Christopher is still huge! He's wearing 12 month clothes and eating and sleeping a lot! He's a very sweet baby and loves to give kisses, open mouth and all! He tries really hard to crawl, just hasn't figured out that he needs to get up on his hands and knees at the same time in order for it to work! So he rolls everywhere, but I'm sure the crawling won't be too far away! He's been teething for like a good month and drools like crazy! We like to call him slimmer!


He also loves to take baths and splash with Davis and Allie!

a VERY long day!

On the 11th our plan was to go into Vegas and go to the Shark Reef, eat lunch at the Rain Forest Cafe, then come home! SSOOO didn't happen that way!

We were on our way to Vegas, just past the speedway when our back right tire blew! I was SSOOO scared because it was so loud and there were pieces flying everywhere! A piece of rubber even hit the side view mirror and it went flying! Luckily Chris was driving and calmly put the car in neutral and slowly got to the side of the road. So my car was pretty tore up but everything fixable. After Chris put the spare on we drove really slow to Pilot and topped off the gas tank then headed to discount tire. Luckily they had all the tires and rims that we wanted in stock so we walked down the block and grabbed lunch. It only took them about 1 hr 45mins to get it all done.. So we were super excited and headed to the Shark Reef. The kids really enjoyed seeing all the fish, but when we were done Davis really wanted to go somewhere that he could play games. So we decided we would head to Chuckee Cheese. We got out to our car and started loading the kids when we noticed one of our tires was flat and you could just hear the air pouring out! We were furious! Chris called discount tire and they said they could send a tow truck, but we had 3 adults and 3 babies.. I'm pretty sure there's not room in a tow truck! So once again we drove really slow to a gas station to put just enough air to get us to the nearest discount tire.. Well of course the one that we stop at, the air machine isn't working. So driving slow again we go to another gas station, put air in then head to discount tire. They immediately starting taking the wheels off to see why our tires were going flat and found that they put the wrong thing in for our tire monitoring system (I guess there's a little thing that goes in the stem and it was just letting all the air out). So after about another hour we headed to Chuckee Cheese! They kids had TONS of fun and didn't want to leave, but by this time it was like 7:30 PM. Our last stop for the night was babiesrus to get a better car seat for Davis then we were on our way home! So what was supposed to be like a 3 hour trip was ALL day! The kids were really good through it all and slept really good that night!


P.S. If that story doesn't really make sense, I'm sorry! It's late!

Catching up!

A few weekends ago my sister-in-law called me and invited me and the kids to come up to Cedar while chris stayed home and worked! I was glad to get out of the house and enjoy a little cooler weather! April's husband and 4 boys are really into horses and all that stuff so Davis gets into it! We went to a little buckaroo rodeo and Davis was super stoked to do the muttin bustin! He was such a stud and stayed on the sheep pretty well! Davis standing with Aunt April and Uncle Burke waiting to ride!
