New Years & Fun!!

Welcome 2010 right??
Happy late New Years....Are you surprised I am blogging again? Me too...guess I have caught the bloggin' bug again.
I love grape jelly! anywho....
Our New Years Eve was WILD & CRAZY!! We welcomed the New Year @ 8:30 pm and were all in bed by 9:00, well except for Chuckles who had to work. We did have fun though...We played pictionary, hide-n-seek, duck-duck-goose, had a few mean games of UNO (Mabry won twice) and then did our party poppers and the count down. It was seriously a fun night!
On New Years Day we headed up to Snowbasin to do some fun sleigh riding. My whole family was there and it was a lot of fun. The hills were pretty mellow and you didn't even have to walk back up - you sat in a tube and they pulled you back up to the top. Even better right!! As we got there Mabry saw her cousins and took off to go down the hill w/ them. Chuckles and I were making our way to the top when we saw that it was Mabry's turn to go down...the paranoid mother that I am kept thinking she needs some help...I mean gripes, she isn't big enough to do that on her own...is she?? :) Chuck said she will be fine...then we see a tube come down the hill w/out anyone on it... te-hee...that was Mabry's tube. So I decided to grab a tube and walk up the hill so she didn't have to wait that long. Well they had extra tubes up there - (it would have been nice if someone would have told me that) they sent Mabry down on an extra tube. So while I was hiking my outta shape behind up the hill to rescue my poor little girl who didn't have a tube - she went down laughing all the way. I got to the top before I realized she had already went down. I know...jokes on me! We rode down as many times as we could before lunch and had so much fun. Ruby was playing at the bottom the entire time w/ grandma and grandpa. They wouldn't let you ride double and I wasn't about to send my baby down in a tube by herself! We ate lunch in the parking lot on our tailgates and had fun just hanging out as a family. Thanks mom and dad for the fun day!! It was a nice way to end the holidays! Here is a few pics!


At the top of the hill


In the parking lot we found a little hill to play on. Mabry decided it would be fun to crash into me.



Being pulled up...it was a nice ride.

HaLLoWeeN 2008

Oops...Sorry, this got a little out of order! You get the idear!!
We ended up @ G-ma Julies. This is cousin Pete. What a fun and crazy night! Boo!


Here is Halloween...Mabry was a little witch and Rubes was a princess. They were both very cute. Mabry has a mean witch cackle so beware! Chuckles had to work this night so we were flying solo...We stopped @ his grandparents house and got some fun pictures...Mabry just loves GiGi and Poppy Pete! I think Poppy Pete looks pretty good in her hat!


We also stopped by my parents to see all the cousins in their costumes. Aren't they just cute!

Ruby and Faith

This is Ruby and Faith...Faith is Ruby's cousin and is only 3 weeks younger. They are such fun babies.

The Cabin

We went up to the cabin w/ my mom and dad...this was back in Sept (I know...lots of catch up). The cabin is always great fun cuz you get to be dirty all the time and moms can't care that you are!! I remember going up to the cabin when I was Mabry's age so it is so much fun to be able to take her up there. We always see moose by the pond and have loads of fun roasting dogs and mallows. Ruby even liked it as long as she had a stick to chew on. tehee BTW: Savvy tried to attack these moose...funny dog!

Photos

Found a few more!!

I think I have forgotten how to blog - it has been so long! I have got massive amounts of pics to put on here so I am just going to get started!

Mabes, Gramma Betty and Pappa Diggs...this was for a 24th of July (yes, I have pics from that far back) parade in our neighborhood. We decorated Mabry's scooter w/ balloons and streamers. She decided she wanted to walk so I had errrr...I mean got to ride her scooter.

Just Relaxing

this is random I know but I thought it was cute. Chuckles and his little girls relaxing.

Chuckles and Rubes @ the rodeo

This was a fun family night for us. We actually stayed for the whole thing and had a great time.

Rodeo - July 2008

Mabes loves to pose for the camera.

This is Mabes checking out the bulls @ the Rodeo...She wore her Halloween costume from last year because well...she was a cowgirl and it was the perfect outfit to wear to the rodeo. Everyone made comments about her. She looked darling as usual!

Austin and Sabrinia

Thought I would try to put a video on my blog. This one is in my little sis' backyard. It is of my older sis' kids - Aust and Bean. How much fun is this!! Cute kids!!

Meet Fischer - "Fishes"

This is Fishes...Lover of dump trucks, snow cones and yes...the color pink (who doesn't love the color pink). He is my little sis' cute boy and is 3 years old. Look at those blue eyes. We love you fishes!

This is Fischer running around w/ unders on his head! Silly guy.

Fishcer and his daddy...Bobber

This is my little (yes, she is really that little) sis and her cute family. Fischer and Bobber.

Fishes @ Lake Powell. "I get you Chi-Chi" June 2008

4th of July

This was our 4th of July. Not sure who had more fun Chuckles or Mabes??

Mabry and the men in her life!

I consider Mabes a pretty lucky girl to have these men in her life. They all adore her and her "sassy pants" attitude.

I'm sorry but I just don't know how to rotate these...help!
This is Mabes and Chuckles after doing some hard cement work. Mabry loves helping her Daddy.

This is Mabry and Pappa Boone. She was teaching him how to golf. Nobody else matters when Pappa Boone is around.

Mabry and Pappa Diggs cooling off in the h2o @ Pineview. She forgave him even after he made her fall off the tube!

Lake Powell

This was probably the funnest day. Being the horrible parents we are...we made all the little kids ride the infamous "water weenie". You can see the parents are laughing and most of the kids are crying. The parents in the boat were also laughing while trying to film. AAHHHH.... the joy of parenthood.

Mabry and Sabrinia (cousin) playing fish and being fish! So cute!

I'm alive!

Yes I know it has been a month...I have a list of excuses but I will just throw the LAZY card in and call it good. We went to Lake Powell. It was a fun trip and we were able to enjoy the water and just being together! fun pictures comin' at ya!!
