Our Weekend Getaway


Last weekend we got to take a little mini trip up to the cabin with my family. Unfortunately we didn't get to go for very long, but the couple days we were there were as fun and relaxing as time spent at the cabin always is and my entire family was there which hasn't happened for quite awhile.


We did some of the usuals including ATV riding, tire swing, campfires, game playing, walks, and eating lots and lots of yummy food. This trip we also did a few new things as well. My dad set up a miniature golf course that went around the cabin, the guys brought up some paintball slingshots and had a blast shooting each other and a few helpless creatures, we also had fun playing a few games of steal the flag at night.

This next picture needs a little explaining. We happened to go up there during the Idaho Deer Hunt and so when we went on the ATV's or when the guys went paintballing we had to wear orange. Well, one day my mom and dad went on an ATV ride, and while they were gone the guys decided to go paintballing but didn't have enough vests for all of them so my brother Jared just had to make do with what he could find which just happened to be an orange life jacket. That combined with awesome yellow goggles made for a great picture!

On Sunday we went on our traditional walk to the big rock.


My dad found a little rock for Raylee and Ashlyn to sit on, but they were a lot more interested in watching everybody else on top of the big rock.

Raylee had SO MUCH FUN playing with all her cousins. It sure was nice to have some other kids around to help entertain her!












Even though we were only there for a couple of days we had tons of fun and I can't wait to go again. Hopefully it will be sooner than later!

RSL Game at Rio Tinto Stadium


One of Coreys latest obsessions is soccer. He loves to watch it, and he even tried playing it. He loves it so much that we had to upgrade our cable package just so that he could get the soccer chanel to watch his favorite teams Real Salt Lake and Liverpool. He goes to a few Real Salt Lake games every year, usually with his friends from work, and always has a blast. As soon as he found out they were building a new soccer stadium he told me he would be at the opening game so it was no surprise when he told me a few weeks ago that he had got tickets. The real surprise was that he asked me to go with him!!


The stadium is only like 10 minutes from my parents house, so my mom watched Raylee and then Corey and I met up with a bunch of friends at the stadium. It ended up being lots of fun even though it was freezing cold and the game ended in a 1-1 tie!

Our little Ray of Sunshine!

A week or so ago, we took Raylee to the doctors for her 12 month shots :(. It was so sad this time because she was much more aware, but still had no idea what was happening. Her stats are as follows:
Height: 28 1/2 inches (40th percentile)
Weight: 15 lb 4 oz (way way off the charts)
I was also looking through pictures and wanted to post a few of my favorites of Raylee from the past year. Some you've seen, some you haven't. I can't believe how big she has gotten, but I have to give her some credit because she has done her best to stay little for me!

















We love our little Ray of Sunshine!
