Wild Rodeo

We made the brave journey to the town of Weippe this Saturday to enjoy the rodeo. Addyson loved the horses there, and said she wanted to ride a sheep. I think not! She would have flipped. Her attitude towards the half way point was terrible but then it got better towards the end. I got to see a lot of my old classmates, and enjoy some friendly chitchat with some new ones. I don't think we will be attending the one next year, I think we will stick to the Lewiston Round-Up (rodeo) in September. I haven't got much accomplished this weekend besides some cleaning, laundry, and Addyson and I made Zucchini bread. She decided to stir the dry ingredients. I am ready to tackle this week, and Thursday we will be heading up to stay with my Grandma. She is having a tumor in her breast removed. Yes, my grandma was diagnosed with fast growing cancer. I feel like I am in a dream. Hopefully this surgery will help her onto the road of being cancer free!

Dux

I can't believe I haven't put DUX in our family blog.  We recently bought, yes bought, a chocolate lab for Addyson. We picked him out in February and in March he came to live with us. He is a big guy. I am pretty sure he is 70 lbs. He is almost seven months old.

She picked... and he became DUX

Our Home

I've finally have internet to keep up with my blog instead of my iphone.  We love our little house. When I say little its only 1200 square feet, with a huge yard. We want to one day build a shop/garage. Eventually that would be where we would gather if we had a big gathering. (Thanks to Darcy and Gerry for the idea!)

Here are pictures of our house. We still have some updating, to make it ours, and our yard is HORRIBLE. See Peck use to just be one big river here, once it all dried up, it eventually just has a small creek running through it. So our yards are rocky, and we're going to have to landscape this fall or early spring.

Addyson's Third Birthday!

I can't believe I have a three year old. Addyson loves princess anything, so we decided to just go with an overall theme of princess. I had to make her cake because it was over memorial weekend and everything was closed. In Idaho, they all seem to close down and go out camping. We had a small turn out, which Addyson was just excited for her new horses that she got from her grandma and my aunt Gina. She also got her first archery bow and arrow. She tells me she is going to shoot a deer with her bow and arrow. I wonder where she gets that from. She loves to twirl and watch her pony shows, and princess movies. She loves her puppy DUX and tried to love on Paco. She tried dance class one day and was to shy. She has a smile that would melt your heart. Loves to eat. I think she gets that from me. She says the funniest little things. One time she said that she doesn't want a sister she wants a brother. Maybe one day. She loves going to play at the park across our new house, and her place set she calls her play house. Camping is fun for her because she can play anywhere without getting into to much trouble. Addyson is a little swim baby. She just loves swimming, I am glad we live closer to the Clearwater River where she can swim and float in  her little boat. She has a big heart, but she has issues with sharing when we are around certain kids. I can't believe how much she loves her horses. She wants a real one. My once five pound baby is now a big 28 pounds. We haven't got to go to her three year appointment yet because her Doctor has been out of town.
