Roll out the Barrel

I'm starting to feel it again.

I hope things are gonna happen again. Things as in I'm gonna take the time to write it again. I'm just not sure where to pick up. It's been a year. Dang.. its been a year?! As soon as the kids go back to school in a few days I'm gonna be all over it.

My Baby is 7

7 years ago today our baby girl was born.. and we didn't even know it until 13 months later. It has been awesome! It is so amazing to me that fate, prayers and blessings can bring a family together. Happy Birthday Jasmyn. We love you so much and are so blessed to have you in our family!

Nothing Like A Good Airshow

Ahhh.. I think it was going to airshows with my dad as a kid that made me have a love for jets. I love, love, love jets! When I hear a jet coming I have to get outside or stop whatever I am doing to see it fly by. They amaze me. So we took the kids to the airshow. We got there about 20 min. before the thunderbirds performed. Five minutes into their performance it started poaring and then hailing. Ten minutes later it was sunny and the show resumed. Amazing! Watching them made me so giddy.. the goosebumps, the lump in my throat, the Patriotism.

WOW!

I love this arrangement.. it sounds so awesome! It gives me chills every single time I watch it.

Operation Mend Broken Heart

Christine (my sister from another Mother) called me saying she had found a miniature horse on ksl and was thinking about going to pick her up for Grandpa since he had just lost his beloved cow Daisy. I told her I wanted to go with. We had no way of transporting her but since she was a mini we thought she would fit perfect right in the back of my van. I got a table cloth to lay down (didn't think to grab a plastic one), took out the back seat and we were on our way.

We fell in love when we saw her. She is the sweetest thing. She was a little bigger that we were planning though. Once we got her in the back of the van we were on our way to finish our mission. She bucked, reared, hopped and neighed for about the first 10 minutes and there were a couple times we thought about turning back. I was really nervous to take her on the freeway.. especially since she did the best when we were going real slow. Chris soon realized that she was ok as long as she was being sung to.

I kept imaging the next days newpaper headlines saying : "Two dumb women trampled to death by horse in minivan on freeway". We made it though. Her name is Dixie which we thought was fitting & perfect.. Dixie (St. George) carries a lot of meaning to the Prisbrey family name. Not sure if it mended the broken heart.. in fact, I know it didn't (that will take more time) but he loves her & she loves him.

aNoThEr PeRfEcT dAy!

We loaded up the cooler, the pogo stick and of course the kids and took off. After a super busy, hectic week that is like a wonderful meal for our family.. to drive up towards the mountains or a park and just enjoy eachother. We laughed and played and loved being together.

Hayden & Kolton played on the pogo stick (both are amazing on one) so I told them whoever could make it around the whole campground without falling off would get a whole package of gummy bears (not thinking either of them would make it since it equaled almost a block).

Hayden had to start over twice but made it all the way around the campground. He was huffing & puffing & super sweaty when he got done but super proud.

The younger kids spent the time hunting frogs. What a blast

ALL I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT LIFE I LEARNED FROM THE EASTER BUNNY ..

Don't put all of your eggs in one basket.

Everyone needs a friend who is all ears.

There's no such thing as too much candy.

All work and no play can make you a basket case.

A cute little tail attracts a lot of attention.

Everyone is entitled to a bad hare day.

Let happy thoughts multiply like rabbits.

Keep your paws off other people's jellybeans.

Good things come in small sugarcoated packages.

The grass is always greener in someone else's basket.

An Easter bonnet can tame even the wildest hare.

To show your true colors you have to come out of your shell.
