a few things...

Here is a quick update for ya'll on whats been goin on...
1. Tyson played in a mesquite softball tournament so i slept over with mom and gained 20 lbs after making coconut, peppermint and orange cream homemade ice cream all weekend.
2. Dad accepted a job in New Mexico laying fiber-optic cable (boy do i sound smart) for a little while...so we get to hear about lots of cool tarantula and scorpion stories, along with stories about the towns he . Wow is all i can say.
3. The boys have been become obsessed with "3 ninjas" and wrestle ALL DAY LONG.
4. Tysons grandpa Gilbert passed away quickly and so the Mackays took a trip to Washington for the funeral and braved the "Blizzard of 2010". I know i know...they survived no worries. So....while he was gone, i kept the boys home to avoid annoying everyone to death in a 12 hr car ride and we chilled with Haley and her kiddos. Those babies are too cute right now. Owen is overly motherly to them. Its cute.
5. We saw "tangled" Thanksgiving weekend, had a wonderful dinner with Gma Patty's side, saw the festival of lights already, and got all my Christmas shopping done....
ALL WHILE BATTLING THE WORST MORNING/ALL DAY SICKNESS...
Yes folks, baby #3 is causing me grief already but will all be worth it right? June will be a good month in Vegas to have a baby right? Speaking of Vegas, we go soon to house hunt as we will be moving in January.
So forgive me if i have been missing lately...once i am over this yucky part of pregnancy...and moving, ill be much better.
Happy Holidays all!

since im too tired and lazy to make up my own posts, i still them from sisters blog

My parents bought a home down in gorgeous Southern Utah earlier this year and have decided to rent it out to anyone who is clean and fun and loves St George. :) My dad has recently taken a temporary job out of state and so they won't be able to spend as much time down here as they'd like.. The home is located in Desert Hills, St George, UT. It has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and is brand spankin new. There is a community pool as well as a fun park and splash pad within walking distance. They are charging $75 per night
Soooooo, for all 2 of you who look at my blog, contact me if you're interested...or know anyone interested or have any questions! lindslee@hotmail.com.

halloween

So im a terrible mom and didn't get any pics of my kiddos on halloween (mostly because my camera is MIA) so i stole these pics off of Kylee's blog. Thanks Ky!
Here I am making up a little witches brew for the kids.
They were captivated but too scared to drink it because me story was pure A.W.E.S.O.M.E.
Owen decided on a football player after debating between a robot and a superhero. Good choice...since i already had the seahawks getup from christmas last year!
Reg was a super awesome super hero. He really got into character.
And here are all the Mackay cousin + Courtney.
Trick or treating was pretty eventful this year seeing that we got stuck in the hale storm and had to get a ride home from a perfect stranger. The boys were bauling because "rocks" were hitting them.
Well..we were determined to get back out there so we jumped in the car and trick or treated old school. They would jump out in the rain, run to the door, collect their goodies and jump back in. I had the easy job...driving.
Overall, it was a success and the boys eat their candy for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I figure the faster it is gone, the faster i can stop worrying about it laying around.

"Dweam come twue"

For 1 year we have saved up our money jar to visit Disneyland. We finally talked some friends in going with us (well...told them they were coming) and we went for Owen's 5th birthday. Bridger is Owens buddy and born on the same day! We spent 2 days in the magical kingdom and the boys were in heaven!
All the boys. ive never seen so much wrestling and teasing....in a nice way. They are good buds.
Owen and Reg got to pick out a toy with their change they saved. Buzz guns and huge suckers were the choice.

Classic right? Who doesn't have a picture with Mickey? He was gettin fresh with the girls, in fact he gave Jenn a kiss and pretty sure he grazed my bum. But its mickey, he can get away with anything. The birthday boys! 5 is treating them very good so far!

My kind of pet...

Im not going to lie...one of my favorite parts of summer is raising our little pet and setting it free.
It starts mid august when we go search for milk weed leaves that have little teeny tiny caterpillar eggs on the back of them.
Its like finding gold in a bunch of weeds.
Then we bring it home, keep it wet and soon it hatches into a little caterpillar who then eats the milk weeds.
Unfortunately i didn't get a picture of mr fuzzy pants ( the catepillar that owen named). But soon after a few weeks, he gets bigger and bigger and then spins a cocoon.
Then that cocoon hatches after a week or so and out comes a beautiful butterfly.
Here we are just minutes before setting our pet free. (don't mind Owens awesome 3 sizes too small t-rex costume).
And here's our baby free on its own out in the wild. tear.
We all said what we loved about him before we set him free.
The boys loved it.
I loved it.
now i can check off that we have had a pet.
