Our Fall 2010

As usual I am playing catch up! There are lots of fun pics of our family and our adventures in which we have enjoyed. We went to my sisters house for Thanksgiving and had a very enojoyable day. The kids has so much fun we decided to stay the weekend and play some more. I didn't take any pics, they are on Mollie's camera, so hopefully I can get them posted before baby Quincie makes her arrival!

Riker enjoying the first real snow fall of the season. He has a blast playing while Paislee was at school. He really wants to make a "humphrey" aka a snowman! We have yet to make one, but hopefully real soon.

Riker trying out his new gogs (bogs!)

Riker broke his arm on November 16. He was attempting to get off of my bed after quiet time and lost his footing and did a front flip right off my bed. Since this picture he has a bright, neon green hard cast on that has been wonderful. From the time that he had nothing on his arm and a splint, Riker was unable to sleep for nap time and bedtime, since the cast he has slept all night every night! The pics of his new cast are on Mollie's camera as well and Riker is being stubborn about me taking more pics!

Riker getting really good with his left hand!

The kids and I were fortunate to go to Texas to see Heath the first part of November. We decided to stay in the hotel on base, which ended up being heaven sent. They put us in the temporary housing. We were able to stay in a town house for a week. It was great, it definately beat staying a tiny little hotel room and it was even cheaper then you would pay for a cheap hotel! The kids called it "the house"!

We had a blast playing at the playground every day

Having some fun play time with daddy on his day off

While in Texas, we decided to go down to Ft Worth. The kids had a blast. We were also able to meet up with Uncle Benny and his family in Ft Worth. The kids really enjoyed seeing their cousin Parker. Oh how we wish he lived closer.

Daddy riding the mechanical bull, Uncle Benny insisted a real cowboy show us how its done!

My cautious cowgirl. She says she is never going to ride bulls.

I am a little worried that Riker already has the right form for riding a bull. I am really hoping that he will decide that another rodeo sport is his thing, but I am not going to keep my fingers crossed!

Our little family

Uncle Benny, Aunt Amberlie, Parker, Amberlie's brother Mark, Daddy, Riker and Paislee, waiting for the long horns to run down the middle of the road.

Happy Halloween! This year we decided to stay home and celebrate by ourselves. We had a great time, although it was a little chilly.

The kids and I went to Disneyland with a friend of mine from work when Heath left for Texas. We had a blast and are already trying to talk daddy in to taking us next year.

Paislee and I waiting to see Tinkerbell.

Riker enjoying his ice cream sandwhich.

All of these adventures started when we went to Kansas in September to see our Papa. The kids had such a fun time with Papa. We found a frog and had many fun ventures. This is just a couple months before Papa left to go back to Iraq. Pnut and Riker really love Papa and miss him tons already.

We hope you enjoyed seeing our many fun adventures. We hope that you enjoyed the fall of 2010 as well. Our next update, will probably include a little addition, one that we are very anxious and excited about. We wish you a very merry holiday season.

IT'S A BOY???? IT'S A GIRL????

Yesterday, after a long extra week of waiting for an ultrasound we were finally off to see what this little munchkin is. Paislee reminded me before I went to the doc that it better be a girl! I had to nicely remind her that I am not the one that makes the decision, it is up to our Heavenly Father.

Paislee and Riker were very open about us seeing what sex they were at their ultrasounds, as for this baby, I caught an idea real quick that we may not find out during our scheduled ultrasound and it may be more waiting for me. From the get go, baby was tucked into a little ball with its feet right up against its rump so there was no showing of parts. Baby was also fast asleep, without hope of waking up.

After taking lots of measurements and trying to push on my belly, baby finally decided to move, just enough to get a glimpse!

This is baby all curled up in a ball. The ultrasound tech was very impressed of how curled up baby was. This is the best profile picture we could get. This little one was not about to let us see what we wanted to!

Once we finally got baby to move, it first crossed its ankles and then layed in this position, still making it impossible to see what sex.

After lots of other pics, we finally saw the one we wanted to.

IT'S A GIRL!!!!!

Summer Fun

Our summer has been filled full of adventures already! A week ago I held a baby shower for my friend Emily at our house. About 20 min after the guest left Paislee pulled a bar stool on to her and cut her forehead. Heath was at work, so the kids and I packed up and drove to Utah Valley Emergency Room. Once we got there the doctor told me that he would need to do conscious sedation on Paislee to make sure he gets the least visible scar possible. Thank you so much to my sister, Mollie, for taking Riker during the procedure and then bringing him back with plenty of treats and a new activity book. He sure is a monster and had he been there I would have been in serious trouble! Paislee did great for the procedure and was quite hilarious coming out of the sedation.

This is the next day. She was pretty proud of her stitches. It looks really small, but they managed to fit 7 stitches in it!


This is Riker's new found treasure. We have had this bummer bottle sitting around since Spit Fire was a colt and we had to bottle feed him after Splash died. Riker likes to try and feed M&M out of it, who does not want anything to do with it.


Paislee and Riker have also been taking swimming lessons. Daddy swims with Riker and both did very well the first session! Riker is a natural fish in the water. Paislee on the other hand, is more into play than in to learning how to swim.

Paislee sitting on the sidelines while her stitches were in. Thanks heavens they were only in for 5 days. She did not like sitting on the sidelines.

We hope to continue to have a fun filled summer. Riker will be 2 next month! I can't believe our little monkey is that big! Heath is almost done building his round pen and once it is done he will be able to start working on his colt. We also have many fun fishing, camping, and dirt biking trips planned. I am hoping with all of our fun activities that we have planned that we can make time to work on the basement. I am hoping that we can have the basement finished by the end of the year since we will be welcoming 2 more little feet into our home then!

We hope you have a fun filled summer!

Devils Race Track

One of our favorite hobbies is to ride dirt bikes and 4-wheelers. Papa and grandma came down for Mother's Day and then stayed the night so we could go on a dirt biking "adventure" on Monday. Heath and my dad had gone riding the week before out to the Devils race track and had such a good time that we all decided to do it.

I am sure that I am going to be being some 50cc dirt bikes in the near future. My kids, are addicted to motorcycles!

Riker doesn't have all the gear yet, so he wears a bicycle helmet and sun glasses. He is so patient when his glasses (that are too big) slide down, he just waits for someone to notice and push them back up!

This is us on top of Dutchmans Arch. It was amazing. You could see for miles.

This is papa and grandma! We stopped to have lunch by Swayze's cabin and found this cool little cubby in the rock. What better place to have a picnic.

This is inside the Ice Box. I can see how the pioneers kept things cool. It was a little chilly in there!

The kids eating there sandwhiches in the little cubby. They thought this was the neatest thing.

Heath and my dad standing in front of Swayze's Cabin. I am not sure how the pioneers did it, but I am sure thankful for my house and all my worldy possesions.
Riker also found himself a furry little friend. A MOUSE! It was dead and he picked it up, so I screamed and he screamed for about 10 minutes. I scared him half to death.

This is our little Pnut and her riding get up! She couldn't part with her blanket, so grandma decied to improvise and put it up under her helmet so she could suck it while she rode. She is sure the 4-wheelin princess in this seat.

This is Eagles Canyon, it is under I-70. These bridges are about 300ft above us.

It was so amazingly beautiful.

This is our latest adventure! I hope that we soon have more to share with you and that I can get them posted as soon as our next adventure arrives.

VIVA "Next" Vegas

Heath had a few extra days off work, so we decided to take the kids to "next" Vegas. We had a really fun time and Paislee is still talking about all the exciting adventures we had while in "next" Vegas, as she calls it. We also had a really fun suprise when we arrived in Vegas, grandpa and grandma decided to go down for a few days too. The weather was a little chilly, but that didn't stop my munchkins from wanting ice cream. They enjoyed their ice cream and people watched!

Heath had this brilliant idea that we weren't staying too far from the main strip. After our first night of walking the strip, Heath decided that it would be just as fast to walk back to the condo as it would be to wait for the shuttle. After walking 8 miles and 2 hours later, we finally made it back to the condo. We did get to see the famous Las Vegas sign on our walk!

We walked passed this mime about a dozen times and half the time Riker thought he was cool and the other half he was scared to death of him. He was probably the coolest mime I have ever seen.

We visited the Harley Davidson restaurant with grandma and grandpa!

We also went to the Tournament of Kings. It was alot of fun. That was the nicest meal out with kids we have ever had. The munchkins didn't make a peep and they ate all there food.

Welcome Spring!

I can't believe how fast the time goes. I knew it has been a while since I blogged, but didn't realize it has been this LONG! So there will be a few post tonight to catch up on the fun we have been having at the Weber Ranch!

On one of the few and far between nice days, our kids enjoyed a nice horse back ride on Skeeter. Horse back riding turns into a day long excersion at our house. Once the kids get on the horse, we have to pry them off!

Paislee has taken on the task of being our gardner. She gets very upset when she forgets to go out and water first thing in the morning.

Riker helping water the garden. So far, we have our onions, peas, radishes, and carrots planted. This year we are going to try and plant our corn in front of the pasture. Hopefully it grows and we have lots of it!

Riker loves to help water my flowers and bushes, although they do have sprinklers to them. It is alot more fun to water them by hand and take lots of drinks from the hose.

We have been very busy and having lots of fun. We hope you are having fun too!

Our January!

Since our family is feeling better, we have had many fun filled days. Our friends own a farm and invited us down to see their brand new baby calves. Our kids had so much fun, Riker wanted to stay and love on the babies!

Riker enjoying the sunshine and opportunity to play outside.

We have been lucky enough to have our cousin FiFi at our house to play for a few days, they girls enjoyed grooming our newest family member M&M.

I love this pic of Riker, but have tried multiple times to rotate it and can't get it to, sorry. I think he is going to be our next extreme adventurist.

This is Paislee enjoying being pulled in the sleigh. We really wish that the winter was warmer, so that we can stay outside and play longer!

The two special men in my life. Aren't they so stinkin cute!

Paislee and I in front of Grandpa and Grandma Webers'.

We hope you are having a great start to the New Year. Hope to have new and exciting pics up soon.
