DALIN HOME FOR 10 DAYS~

FYI...VERY LONG POST AND LOTS OF PICS!
HAVING DALIN HOME FOR 10 DAYS WAS THE BEST!!!!! It was so much fun seeing a lot of family and friends and relaxing and getting last minute stuff done before he took off again. Taelin loved having his daddy home and loved having a great wrestling buddy. Taelin would love to play peek a boo, and go crazy before bed time with Dalin. He would love to sit on Dalin's shoulders and play basketball....every time Taelin would make a basket he would keep a hold of the rim like he was dunking it. It was so much fun hearing story after story after story from boot camp, learning more and more about guns, cuddling, playing outside, going on walks, playing pool, looking at pictures, eating meals together, going to see INCEPTION, praying as a family, watching the BSU game, playing with macie, making each other lunch, wedding crashing and then out to ice cream, looking at and learning about all of Dalin's honors that he received at Recruit training, meeting Beckett John for the 1st time, and the best was being able to BE WITH HIM and SEE HIS FACE and LISTEN to his voice. I love Dalin so much and am so proud of him. I will do family day and graduation day on another post...so don't you worry.
BSU GAME SEPT 7th. BSU vs VIRGINA TECH

Taelin LOVES to play with Macie's crate


We went to Ty and Heidi's apt for the game, and had some GREAT food!

Even though i don't have pics from our date, Thursday night my parents gave us $ to go see INCEPTION at the majestic theater. Thanks for the fun date mom & dad! Before the movie started Dalin wanted to of course play a $25 shooting game. We took turns, and I BEAT him. I got EXCELLENT on shooting, and Dalin just got Good. I was super proud of myself since he did just come home from boot camp where he got an EXPERT on rifle shooting, so I got to brag that I was better.....at least for a sec:)
SATURDAY SEPT 11, 2010
WEDDING CRASHING....not on purpose.....


Since we couldn't stay at this wedding, i decided it would be fun to go to a park that I love that was close by...and THEY WERE HAVING A WEDDING AT THE PARK!! I couldn't believe it!
So then Dalin decided that we should just go out to ice cream since no one wanted to give us food!



He wanted more!!!!


Hey give me some of that!

Dalin stuck his spoon on his nose, and Taelin thought it was the coolest thing ever. Taelin tried to stick it on his nose..and realized it wouldn't stick, so Taelin would grab the spoon and put it on Dalin's nose...it was so funny.




After Ice Cream we went and saw Grant, Becky, Brodie, and Mikayla at the Nelson's home. It was so much fun to see them. That night when Taelin was in bed, Grandma and Grandpa were so kind to stay home and watch him, so Dalin and I could go on another date and see Knight & Day at the $1. That movie is so HILARIOUS! Ty & Heidi and Wes and ReNea all came along as well. ReNea says that she totally see's Dalin and I in that movie. haha
SUNDAY SEPT 12, 2010
We went to my parents Stake Conference where not only did my dad speak and give an amazing talk about the BOM, but Brother Bowman was there from the quorum of the 70 and spoke as well. It was a great Conference!!! And it was nice having Dalin here to be able to take turns with Taelin in the hallway, so I could at least here some of the stuff that was being said.
John, Ashlie, and Beckett surprised everyone and came into town to see Dalin before he took off again. We got to meet Beckett for the very first time. He is so cute and is so small, drowning in preemie clothes. I forget how small babies can really be. Taelin is not so much a baby anymore:(

Monday Sept 13, 2010 was Dalin's BIG honoring party at his parents home . It turned out so great and it was so awesome to see 70+ people come out to honor him and tell him how proud they are of him and to let him know that he is an inspiration to so many people's kids. Wes and ReNea did an amazing job with decorating the house and providing the good food and AMAZING cake! I made a slide-show of family day and graduation day that people could watch as well. All in All it was A GREAT PARTY! Thank you everyone for coming to support my husband and our little family. It meant A LOT to us.
