I'm A Slacker

I know i know i am so behind but from now on I'm making it my goal to keep up. It has been a busy summer, so i will try my best to sum it all up for you. i had thought two kids was busy until the third, and now i know what losing your mind is all about. it seems i have no time to myself but you know i wouldn't have it any other way. bare with me as i tell you just a little that's been going on in our crazy life.

On the 14th Tyrell was out riding his horse and it slipped and fell on him, yes he was stubborn and walked a long ways before calling anyone. Me and the kids were already in bed when i herd him stumbling through the house, as he was still trying to walk on it we took him into the ER. He was so stubborn that he drove me and the girls there, what good was i to even go.lol. yes it is broken, in a boot and on crutches for a while.

I was hoping that would have been the only ER rush for a long time, nope wrong again. On Monday the 20th we was doing chores just like every other day, The girls play while we feed. It was just me feeding this time as there is not much tyrell can do on crutches. Just as i was getting done i heard Brentlee screaming. O great here we go what now. She was holding her hand out with blood just dripping everywhere, i rapped her hand tight in a sock (the only thing i could find) and ran home to wash it off to see what exactly we were dealing with and o my hell was it disgusting. There was stuff hanging out of her battle wound which we found later was from a piece of metal. So we made another run to the ER. I was so embarrassed to find it was the same dr as the week before. All i could say was ya I'm back again. Brentlee is so dang tough and proud of her three stitches. It was so funny to watch her after they had numbed her hand and give her pain medicine, she wouldn't shut up. She talked non stop all the was home, and was so so funny that night at the house, Tyrell couldn't stop laughing at her. I was to busy watching her i never recorded it. danget. it was good watching.

It doesn't look like a very big wound but I'll tell you that was a lot of blood. She amazes me, and hasn't complained one bit.

It was a very happy Birthday for both Jazyln on the 16th and Brentlee on the 17th. I know they wont like to share there birthdays on the same day when they get older, so while we can get away with it we are going to do them together. I cant believe where the time goes, my last little baby is one, and my monster that i have to watch at all times with both eyes is now three. its so much fun to watch them grow and learn. as i was thinking back with Taylor we pushed her more to walk and talk, but now with Jazlyn i find myself holding her back and not wanting her to grow up. It has been hard for me to realize that she is my last little baby and i wont watch another grow like i have watched my three perfect angels, but i am also very blessed to have my girls by my side and to see them smile. Happy Birthday Girls!

All Brentlee would tell me she wanted was a longhorn cake, so that is what we came up with. Nothing fancy, but so loved it.

Jazlyn's Ladybug kind of turned out scary, but it was fun to try something new. After all she didn't mind one bit as she dug right in. she loved every bite.

Tyrell had went on one of his crazy fast trips to pick up a bull in Oklahoma, so me and the girls just hung out at the house and had a fun movie night. Me and Taylor also got board and decided to give her a hair cut. She has been asking for over a year now to have her hair cut short, and she finally talked her dad into saying whatever. I dont think he was to happy about it, but i thought it turned out cute.

Her hair is so much easier to take care of.

The 4th of July was fun even thou we didn't do anything. They don't do a big celebration in Altamont until the week of the 24th. I had Kolbi and Braxton and so we just hung out at the house and played in the water witch i learned mud was much more fun. They had a blast, it truly wasn't on purpose, but when you have a kid like Braxton that acts just like his dad(Trent)and a monster like Brentlee bad things just happen. As i had looked out the door Brentlee was on her hands and knees in the mud and Braxton was just in the process of putting mud on his head. I was to late so i just let them have a mud fight. Here are the results.

Braxton, Kolbi, Taylor and Brentlee

We left for Oregon on the 18th of June for a Texas Longhorn Sale. What an adventure we had driving straight 14 hours with three kids. What was we thinking! No it wasn't to bad i must say they did very well. So we got there late that night and all i wanted to do was go to bed, but Jazlyn had other plans. The next morning the guys had to be with the cows and do whatever it is that they do. haha, I'm not totally sure what goes on all day as they sit there and wait for all the cattle to arrive. us girls had other plans. we took the kids to see the Beach, had lunch and stopped at a bunch of fruit stands along the road it was great. We met up with the guys later that night for a BBQ and the view of the cattle. That night we took the kids swimming which Jazlyn absolutely hated. i would barely stick her feet in and she would scream for a couple of minutes. The next day was the big sell. They had raffles that i had put in for and i won the raffle with the longhorn skull. Yes people think I'm crazy but i was so excited for winning. The sell went good, we sold two and yes came home with one. i guess i should be glad that it was just one we came home with. lol. By that night i definitely need some kind of sleep. The next morning we loaded up and headed back home. I still don't understand how we made it all the way there in one day, but it took us two full days to make it back home.lol. We had all had enough driving by the time we got to Twin Falls Idaho. so we stayed the night and went the rest of the way the next day. What an adventure. it was great, i enjoyed and loved all the amazing sights. here is lots of pictures from our trip.

The drive was so pretty and green i loved it.

We drove along the Columbia river. the girls just loved to stare at the water and watch the boats. it made me very nervous at first to drive right next to it but it was so neat to see.

Taylor is so happy and loves life. Brentlee is so grumpy all the time, Where did she come from?

It wasn't the best day to be at the beach. but Taylor loved every minute of it. She had so much fun with McKenzie and Bailey.They loved to wait for the tied to come in and try to out run it.
