VeRnOn ReSeRvOiR

We desperately needed a break from the yard work so we decided to take advantage of the long 24th of July weekend and head out camping somewhere different. Chris has been wanting to fish and I wanted to be up in the mountains to ride the four-wheelers so we tried out Vernon reservoir. My sister and her family came along to camp with us and we had some really great friends come out to ride and hang out with us. Let me tell you we had a BLAST and will be going back soon.

There was so many fish jumping but there was also A LOT of bugs they were eating too so we only caught 2 the whole weekend but basically that was fishing at dusk.

Briggs caught a BIG fish!

Ryker's Cars fishing pole only lasted about two casts out but he was happy

Briggs was quite the fisherman

First time for Ryker to go out on the boat and he LOVED it

He loved to put his pole in the water and watch it

but then again he is 2 and gets bored quickly!

It was HOT during the day so Briggs and Ryker wanted to go swimming

LOVE how dirty he was!

They were both little fishies

Hotdog.... I think YES!

We took a long ride on Sunday with Dusty, Angie, Gage, Joee and John. It was so much FUN! We had to play in the water and get cooled off!

Gage was not scared one bit and went through the water more than anybody

Ryker had to have a partner in crime

I am so happy that Gage came out to play with Ryker. They had so much fun playing ring around the rosie!

Pile up!

More fun in the water!

Look Daddy caught a fish

This boy was BEYOND dirty and tired!

I think the last picture explains it ALL we had one hell of a good time!

4 years old?

Dear Ryker, How in the world are you 4 years old? I remember your Daddy handing me this tiny precious lovie like it was yesterday. I don't care how old or big you get you will ALWAYS be my baby, my first born that taught me so much. I never knew true, pure, deep love until I had you! This has been a BIG year for you.... you are FINALLY "poop" potty trained. Oh my Ryker I cannot believe how INCREDIBLY hard you were to potty train. Although we still have some pee accidents all in all you do great, I think you are just to on the go to take the time out from playing. You started preschool and you love it! Your best friends are Cash and Beckham (Bear). Some mornings you do not want to go and whine that you want me to go with you but you always go and come back home with the biggest smile and tell me how much fun you had. You are learning so much and it amazes me, I will listen and watch you play or watch a tv cartoon and you can usually answer all the questions correctl...

Happy MOTHER'S Day!

I LOVE Mother's Day. I love being a Mommy.... Ryker is truly the BEST thing that has ever happened to me and I am so extremely blessed that he is my baby! I woke up to Ryker saying "Happy Mom" and Chris and Ryker making me breakfast. I got a hand made card from Chris and Ryker and it melted my heart and made me cry like a baby. Chris and I talked before Mother's day and I asked him not to get me any gifts which he was disappointed in but we are in the process for buying a toy hauler and I wanted to make sure that was cut and dried before spending any money. Chris wanted to get me and promised me a seat to go on the back of my four-wheeler.... he spoils me! I love my two lovies so very much! Thank you for making my day so incredibly SPECIAL! I cherish every moment I have with the two men in my life! I've been called a lot of things in my life, but my favorite of all is Mommy! As Dora and I went the cemetery yesterday to decorate Mom's and Grandma'...

My poor baby boy

Ryker had a few bumps on his back that I noticed on Sunday. I figured it was his sensitive skin from us out camping and from me not putting an lotion on him. I hate to put lotion on him when we are camping because I feel like all the dust sticks to him and makes him even more dirty. Anyways on Monday he was so whiny and running a fever so we packed up and came home. Ryker struggled with the fever all night M onday and even actually slept with Chris and I which has never happened. I figured the fever was from two more of his teeth coming through. Anyway Tuesday when he woke up Ryker was normal again happy as can be so we went about our day. Well Wednesday I needed to go to work so I packed Ryker up to take him to Grandma Irene and I was telling her about these bumps on his legs that you could feel but barley see and she said her other granddaughter gets bumps all the time and it's no big deal. She agreed it was probable from camping and his sensitive skin. When Chris brought ...
