ANOTHER GREAT NIGHT!

Dalin called me around 930 last night to check travel arrangements for after he graduates and IT WAS THE BEST NIGHT EVER!!!! He got his orders and will be graduating the 3rd of Sept and then will come home for a little bit and then leave to go back to MCT training on the 14th of Sept. It was SO GREAT hearing his voice. I love him and cannot wait to see him! 2 weeks from tomorrow:) TIME GO BY FAST PLEASE!

Christian is home....

Christian got home last night around 8:00 pm and Mel and the boys were SO HAPPY! They went on a bike ride and wrestled! Now that means only 2.5 weeks until we get to see Dalin!!!!! I CAN'T WAIT!

BEAR LAKE...FINALLY

Taelin and I went to the Bradshaw Family Reunion up at Bear Lake July 23 & 24th. It was a lot of fun. My dad surprised everyone on the 24th and that was AWESOME! Taelin really missed his grandpa! We had a great time down at the 'beach' in the sand, playing in the lake, riding on the jet skies and boat, and of course eating way good food up at the cabin! We drove with Mel and her 2 boys and we all stayed in a tent. IT WAS FREEZING!!!! Like seriously SOOOOO cold, it was ridiculous! I grabbed Taelin out of his pack n play and cuddled him so we could share body heat. I think Mel and I got 2 hours of sleep....so saturday we each took about an hour nap....that was VERY much needed! It was so much fun seeing family that I hadn't seen in a VERY long time! I love family reunions!

Taelin LOVED to stare at the horse, and could have probably all day long! he LOVES animals.

All of us with Grandma Bradshaw

Getting ready to have some fun in the water

that's what we rode in to go down to the beach.

I love my baby boy!

Taelin LOVED playin' in the mud!!! what a messy boy

Jaden and Kyler were so nice and made this little 'bath' for Taelin to play in. He had the time of his life!




Taelin wasn't a huge fan of the boat ride because he HATED his life jacket. But once the boat was going he was fine and fell right to sleep.


Kyler, Jaden, and Taelin looking so cute in there life jackets!

All tuckered out

He didn't like the sun on his face, so we shaded his face with this shirt.


Taelin and Grandpa Bradshaw. Grandpa was our driver on the boat:)
Back at the cabin Taelin LOVED to play with this monkey friend. He loved to give it hugs and take it for a piggy back ride.


He is our little monkey.
We also played the funnest game ever....MINUTE TO WIN IT!


jaden had to hold these nylons that were filled with a baseball on his forehead and knock down the water-bottles..he did AWESOME!

Mindy had the challenge of holding the end of a roll of crate paper in each hand and had to get it all unwound before the minute was up!



We then noticed a fire from across the lake. hope everyone was okay

Taelin had a lot of fun 'riding' this big dump truck

And he was a big helper when we were packing up

Melissa's wedding!

One of my most favorite cousins, Melissa Soderberg, got married to an amazing guy, Doug Oldham on July 30, 2010. It was an amazing sealing and such a pretty day. The Luncheon and reception were also wonderful! Thanks Melissa for letting us share your special day with you! You looked GORGEOUS!

Grandma McIntosh, Me, Taelin, and Debbie Bradshaw!:)

I love this fountain


Taelin loved looking at the water. He was so fascinated by it!

The Luncheon was at the LION HOUSE, and it was so good. Salad, Rolls, Parmesan Chicken with veggies, and apple pie with ice cream. SO amazing! Melissa even sang her hunny a song! how cute!


Love my sister and my mom!

Look at this awesome high chair made out of wood. Taelin loved it.

Her reception was in Doug's backyard, which was BEAUTIFUL! I love how Taelin is just starring at Melissa.

We blew bubbles to say goodbye to them, and taelin LOVED the bubbles! That was super fun.


The car was decorated so cute! and off they go

We stayed around for a little bit to help clean up, and Taelin and Annette had a great time playing with their awesome toys!!!!!! Taelin could have stayed at that home all night long!
