REPELLING:Nick had to do something he had never done before for his english class and write about it, so i told him he was going to go repelling with me, well nick is DEATHLY afriad of hights, really he wont ever go to the edge of anything. so this was perfect for him to "Sieze the day" as his teacher said to do. So i told him he could let is wife show him up and that he had to go, i have been a few times with my brothers and i love it, i knew nick would to if i could just get him to go over the edge since thats the hardest part.
We started the day at Chuckawalla cliffs since they are the smallest and are for beginners...I went down first.
over i go!
down down down (this one was a little boring for me..hehehe)
Nick went down after me, he did really good better then i thought he was going to, but he had to do cause there was a 5 yr old girl who was going down the same spot so he knew he had too.
After Chuckawalla cliffs we headed over to the Dixie cliffs which are twice as high, i had never done these ones before and they were pretty fun, a little nerve racking with all the cars driving by right under you and people all over watching you.
I was funny hearing and seeing nick do these cause he was kinda freaking out, if you know nick he is one that doesn't swear, well looking over the edge and walking him self over made some bad words come out of his mouth, it was funny cause you will never hear him say that so he must have been pretty freaked, but he did it, twice i might add!
Hanging on the side of the cliff with one little rope was freaking him out but once he got moving down the cliff he said he was having fun...im so proud of him.
I was belaying nick at the bottom cause i had gone down before him, i told him that he better not mess up cause i didnt know if i could hold him if something did go wrong and it was along drop..hehehe i know im mean!
Really though he did great and at the end even said..."honey i may have found a new sport"!!!
Next cliff stop is going to be Cugar Cliffs those are about 170+ feet, nick will really love those...watch for those pictuers around spring break!
I love this picture of kaylin on his quad, he finally is really liking going out and ridding his quad now, is was fun to see him just drive all around. He still has some work to do before he gets to just go off on his own though, he forgets to look where he is going so nick ties a rope to the back just in cause he needs to stop him!
I love that kaylin LOVES his little brother, he is always wanting to give him hugs and kisses, these two are from valentines day!
Kiptin has just started the past few weeks getting such a fun personality, he smiles and laughs now when you talk to him, he really focuses on you and sometimes try's to do what you are doing to him. i love it. this was a cute picture of the boys all laughing together one morning.
Kaylin couldn't be more like his dad, i woke up one day and looked over and kaylin and nick were sleeping the exact same way, and yes kaylin does sleep with his eys open sometimes its a little creepy but cute!
I love moments like this one...it got really quiet in kaylins room so nick went in to check on him and this is how he found him, he was reading a mario game book and fell asleep!!
Im such a daddy's girl...this past month and for the next few months forward, have been and will be pretty hard on me..my dad has had one major surgery so far getting the arty in one side of his neck cleaned out, then this next week he goes in for a qaudruple heart bypass surgery and after he heals enough from that he has to get the other artery on the other side of his neck done as well. Im pretty close to my dad so this is really scary for me to think something might go wrong and him not be here anymore, but thats the good thing about faith it has comforted me and i feel like everthing will go fine.
My dad and me after his first surgery.
This is our Family Valentines Day picture!
Nick and I at the Anizazi Resturant (sooo yummy) for our Valentines Date Night!
We got a new addition to our Family, this is Jaida, she is a 5 month old great dane (yes that means we will have two big beautiful danes), and im so happy that sampson has a friend to play with now, he is much happier!
This is such a cute picture i got of kaylin hugging on sampson, kaylin loves him and is always wanting to love on him and sammy is so good about letting him do what ever he wants, he really is the BEST dog ever.
