LIFE...

~~~LIFE IS NOT MEASURED BY THE NUMBER OF BREATHS WE TAKE, BUT BY THE NUMBER OF MOMENTS THAT TAKE OUR BREATH AWAY~~~

Naughty Nora....




The pictures say it all....she is INCREDIBLY NAUGHTY....and now she is sporting a mullet!

All I want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth!!!!




So Alyssa had a little bit of an accident on the trampoline and knocked back her two front teeth which I had to force back into place (this was lovely)! It was so painful that she wouldn't eat, talk, or even close her mouth...so we eventually ended up in the hospital due to dehydration...which was quickly resolved with a little IV therapy! My poor little baby! It has been a about a month and she is doing much better now, although one of the teeth are turning a little bit grey...thank goodness they are just her baby teeth.

Redfish Vacation...


~Redfish Vacation~

Brandon, Ange, myself, Dustin, Lyssie, Sayer, Amy, Adam
Chillin at the beach...keepin up on all the latest gossip:)
My beautiful girls.....Ains and Lyss
Dustin soaking up some rays....
Mom and Ainslee trying to avoid the water fight...not gonna happen!

We went on our annual Lake Redfish trip at the beginning of August, it was a blast! There is just something about being out in nature that allows you to forget all the hustle and bustle that daily life can bring. Once we got there we did pretty much nothing but RELAX! The weather was absolutely beautiful for playing at the beach and being in the ice cold water! Oh and getting an awesome tan-one of my three goals for the vaca...:)

Just a few more pics of Colty's Alaska Trip!!!






Alaska!!!






Colty went to Alaska to visit his Grandpa Tom and had a wonderful time! They did so many fun things...they panned for gold, camped, fished (and caught lots of them), went clam digging, took a float plane to an island, went on a high adventure trip, went on a deep sea fishing trip (on a glass bottom boat), saw tons of amazing scenery and lots of wildlife! He sures loves his grandpa...and misses him already!

Nantucket Trip for Ains!

Grandma, Ainslee, and baby Jackers on the airplane...


Aunt Katie and baby Jack...oh and the two supermodels showing off their rental car:)

Ainslee worked all summer long babysitting here and there to save money for her long awaited trip to Nantucket Island! She has wanted to go for the past three summers and was finally able to do so this year. She made the trip with her Aunt Katie, cousin Jack and Grandma Rosie. They all had so much fun just seeing the sites and hangin with each other at the beach....! They took lots of wonderful pictures so that they could have great memories and then the day before they left to come home, they lost their camera....bummer...oh well, they still have the memories and a few photos that Aunt Shawnae took and gave to them! My kiddos are growing up so fast...and becoming quite the little travelers...I am excited for them that they are able to have such great oppurtunities! (Although I do have to say I'm a little jealous....I wish I could go traveling!)

Clinicals End for Summer Semester:)

I know it's been forever since I've updated the blog....so I thought that I would fill you in on our insanely crazy-busy lives!



I completed my clinical rotation at St. Lukes in August. I learned so many things from all the amazing techs there...and had an all-together AWESOME experience! These are just a few of my new friends!
