We decided it was high time we had a current family photo taken, so one afternoon we rushed to get ready and march down the street to the beautiful Stack Park in Redmond. Here is the end result, we got some cute ones but not without much drama in between. So, really people stress about family picture day??? I couldn’t possibly imagine why ??? Considering we returned home exhausted after 20 minutes with one with wet pants and the other with poopy pants (that wasn’t kyle or I , I know you went there!) Needless to say, we felt your pain

Check out the parental abuse! What a stinker!!!

I just wanted to share this image I took last weekend while spending some time with my family. My Mother and Aunt Rylee are two women that I look up to often and hold so dear to my heart. I know it’s common for kids to love their mamas but I know not everyone is as lucky as I am to have such a wonderful Auntie. She has always been a part of my life and our bond is great because of it. The real person I’d like to thank is my Grandma D, she is the one who brought these two sisters into the world and raised them so well. She is truly a matriarch in our family and is always thought of so dearly by us all. Grandma has since passed away but I see bits of her every day through out our family and in particular these two smiles below! Love you both so much! Miss you already Aunt Rylee…

Well, Several weeks ago, before we got super busy we decided to go on a camping trip. Our family has a cabin and cattle ranch over in the Steens Mountain, so that is were we headed. We went for walks, fishing, and ate and drank real well. No canned food in this camp, as you will see. We are going to make this a yearly thing. Family is so important, and what better way to spend some time together. Enjoy the pictures.

So lets start with the food!
