She was a wonderful dog who met an unexpected end due to a truck. We will miss her dearly. I will miss the "jingle-jangle" of her collar when she got out of bed, the howling she did when the baby would cry, running like the wind with her ears blowed back, the snuggling under the covers behind my legs, the beautiful dog she was. RIP in Vixen our Dooder Doos! I know you are running like the wind up there.</div>tanfrcklshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03520533757798246664noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4243469591991667124.post-76100673522933347502009-08-18T09:32:00.011-06:002009-08-18T10:07:10.601-06:00So, my brother Kai informed me I hadn't updated my blog in awhile. I guess I better do it before I start school on Monday. Thanks, Kai!<br />So, Summer has been busy. We went camping to Northern Idaho near Lowell. Beautiful country. JJ and Jace both had fun in the water and enjoying the weather. We were able to bring Bud's niece Jordan, who I think enjoyed herself as well.<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371328232390797650" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk2bGqB1mRCcrGf5EZ7kB6ziFc8uLRAy8yLIUJPraAw1Rs8pTslS15KxKlx4pvWR4DeNtiGwSL0giDj0vBADkgc0FypWZQdhK27YHQaFqsQayqOqGjvtQ7hQCPAZ4mTL7pMzztfB3Eyw3S/s320/5295_1202438421540_1245963898_581442_5192305_n.jpg" /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371334619008837730" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUWttOZkUzt8qKtFlL0wiTcDOi-7Y9kPEYryMEdOEqbgv5fPBduJ9RdGLc_bQPNB7FHS8OfYwQWZTObGnNsnEPte1Ycz65QQjWUgUHDBBJgzen-gVQIfcQKMYeANeGmcP9hhOaEm9qU5Nk/s320/100_1722.jpg" /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371328431289911122" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqqYwfdJUDDTGUKuUYTb3vdoWKJNy4pVlk0oScgIfUmYlRdoY4l0GT2YAi_YUN9YCiRwZYMeDvcJUAIhkyMRJoHbQWxuOBePeYDbW1MNnWL8Uqz33X5KV0SKpv0HZVEYa4dhf9IW4c5hJw/s320/5295_1202439221560_1245963898_581462_2397048_n.jpg" /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371334082247994482" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbhgSvd0YdZRtwoXeOn_VUDPcYpAFf-mezwEiujAOExppI8u7FPbsDetKClImOpdfr52BlNOKguO_fjgVDj46e3i2EOGUhk6wRSL6Mmf8kW-QEHvOHNxSUh3BvHodx5SnsZuoBiHIo5Geh/s320/100_1756.jpg" /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 237px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 177px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371328067816166930" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3MUSHmTtgnBSzYJUNYCKthBw1-NQuIeieE3GVwndrus-CW8n6rm-2dIi5z5Riez3fE6Al3AT9Gy1Z8byJ8YFgAtSS1R00_F6MqG55gqkgJHlXkqYY5Z7I5H8cSylCWdbJ1WvjNPn_xEeK/s320/5295_1202437941528_1245963898_581430_8025946_n.jpg" /> <div><div><div><div>It was a wonderful camping trip and was very enjoyable despite the 7 hour drive and a dead battery in our Suburban.

I can't believe my baby boy is that old now. Pretty soon he will start school. He is growing up fast. We had a birthday party for him on Saturday and it turned out great. We had so much fun.

I even made a Spongebob cake and I think it turned out cute. We had Krabby Patties, Barnacle Dogs, Choral Chips, Seaweed Salad and Fish Eggs. All the food was wonderful. We had Jellyfish hanging from the ceiling.

I went down to the fabric store and bought some kits. I am going to make a quilt for my friend Marsha and one for my mother in law as well. I love the colors in both quilts and am looking forward to making them. It's not like I have other projects to work on...Ha Ha.

It should be fun. I really enjoy it. Thanks to my mom for giving me the talent and love to do these kinds of things. It runs in the family. Grandma Hitchcock was always quilting and I remember her letting us do little stitches on the quilt she had on the frames. Grandma was so talented and I love the quilt I have that she made for me. It is a treasured piece. Mom is the same way and the quilts she makes are treasured as well. I am so thankful for the talent and love mom and Grandma...</div></div></div>tanfrcklshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03520533757798246664noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4243469591991667124.post-75246515257430454362009-05-06T14:19:00.007-06:002009-05-06T14:40:10.413-06:00<div><br /><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIBjtY59DuYeGl6KlwJOyadazU3VlK6muXcl7JY1Gn7ScdKz1Wt9OC2WLTFuyMfrx7pDMhOHBrt3CTUA-hHU1kiver6Q9Z2i-GupvPS2JPWO-T7Sd864Gd20jYBboiyUz-1RdHbhE1Gxcy/s1600-h/100_0516.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5332811110728629586" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 238px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIBjtY59DuYeGl6KlwJOyadazU3VlK6muXcl7JY1Gn7ScdKz1Wt9OC2WLTFuyMfrx7pDMhOHBrt3CTUA-hHU1kiver6Q9Z2i-GupvPS2JPWO-T7Sd864Gd20jYBboiyUz-1RdHbhE1Gxcy/s320/100_0516.jpg" border="0" /></a>We blessed Baby Jace on Sunday at my parents house. My brother Kai did the blessing for us. It was great to have the whole family there except Rhubin, my brother in law, who was working. We missed you there, Rhubin. The blessing was wonderful. I am an inactive member but I do still believe in the teachings of what I was taught growing up. I loved the blessing my brother gave to the baby. It was wonderful to have the opportunity to share this with my parents, siblings and all nieces and nephews.<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5332811535804513522" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqdN-KvwXF1XAfhB2N0vz5oErHPZkxQAehAuRcj7_H0EVIDpdaMRumQGVJ7eFI6FTS1WFlRgWozoy3VSYaHFII6gvocQ2o6Oide8lB7UU4umPfNlLM_YNtGCFFC-ZhzX4Seo-wwOgkORUi/s320/100_0519.jpg" border="0" /> My mom made a wonderful meal and the kids enjoyed playing outside. I love spending time with my family and I don't get there nearly as much as I would like. JJ loves playing with Shaleen.

I always have to have her put him in the car or we have a fight and crying fit for miles. He is ready to visit again already. I can't wait to visit again either.<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5332812440263279170" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhppEyNktLTKol9royg3-f74WQCyg5iWX0uaQd0kzi9GtBkCjzGbsPqy_JTlvmyJBXXrEfrsrporzayGS7okjB35fCdxKy23DSuDCB-vNoydxlpc-7uine7e4x-RMkMyeplH07o4UYo8AHx/s320/100_0512.jpg" border="0" /></div></div></div></div><br /><p align="center">Mindy, Me, Darwin, Kai, JoLynn</p>tanfrcklshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03520533757798246664noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4243469591991667124.post-65760608712794505462009-05-05T20:16:00.002-06:002009-05-06T07:21:51.451-06:00These are some black and whites of my two boys.

His birthday is coming up and he is so excited for a birthday party. I guess I will have to plan one. He keeps telling me things he needs...cake, punch, candy and don't forget presents are what orders I have currently. He currently likes watching Imagination Movers and of course Spongebob. He makes me laugh everyday and his imagination is amazing. The things he thinks of to play.</div><br /><br /><div>Baby Jace is 6 weeks old now. He eats, sleeps, poops and occasionally cries.
