Watching the Snow Fall.......

Brielle and Matthew.

My brother Devin, was able to bring his baby matt to the christmas party on saturday. I was very happy because, we don't see him that often. He is now 7 months old today. Matt and Brielle have the same birthday.

Christmas Party.

On saturday, We had my family christmas party. It was a blast, Brielle was a busy bee running around playing with all her second cousins. Ian even caught her giving them huges it was super cute. It was good to see everyone.

Baby Bottle Damage....

Yesterday afternoon I was cleaning my up stairs when I heard a BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! like if someone was on my roof pounding.I headed down stairs as my dog kinsie came running up totally freaked out. When I got down stairs I could smell a wet burnt smell that I could not figure out where it was coming from. So I called ian on the phone and he came home to investigate. Let's just say it did'nt take him long to find the problem. We have a surround sound system hooked up to our tv down stairs with a sub woolfer. I don't know if you know what a sub woofer looks like but, it has a perfect hole in front of it for a baby's bottle. In our case the bottle still had milk in it and slowly leaked onto our amp and fried it.Hopefully we will be able to find someone to fix it. So next time you have a bottle missing don't forget to check your sub woolfer lol.

Brielle and Ander in their winter wear.....

Going to the lights with my cousin Ander.....

Over the weekend we went to temple square to see the christmas lights. It is amazing all the lights they have there.

Going to dinner with mom and dad.....

We decided to go to the Old Spaghetti Factory for dinner.

"Wow" They grow up so fast...

This is brielle's 1st and 2nd Halloween. There is a big size difference.

Its been awhile.......

Well, I thought I would get back in the mode of blogging again. I see all my friends and family and how good they are on keeping up on their blogs. So I guess I felt a little guilty.
A lot has gone on since May(my last post).Well for starters, Brielle is 18 months old and is a walking, talking, bundle.
It seems summer just comes and goes so fast lately. Maybe it's because I hate winter so bad. The thought of having to clean off your car windows in the morning of pure ice!!! You are probaly thinking just park in your garage!!
It seems lately contractors build garages for compact mini cars because the last two places we have lived, our cars haven't fit inside, they are to long, so our garage right now has become a storage unit. Winter is just plain old- being cold and stuck in your house all winter just seems depressing to me. But I am going to try and make the best of it. It's not even Thanksgiving yet and already I have put my Christmas tree up, which hasn't been the easiest. Brielle and "Mo-Jo"(our newest edition) keep taking the bulbs off. Luckily only three have broken so far. We are also the only house in our neighborhood with Christmas lights on our house.
If you are thinking who's "Mo Jo"? He is our new little doggie, so trying to watch a puppy and an 18 month old, and an 8 year old dog who thinks she's a puppy, is so so so very hard- let's just say I have my hands full "lol". And I don't know what The H@#$!! I was thinking when i decided to keep him.
We haven't been up to a whole lot lately, Brielle was piglet for halloween (she was so dang cute!) We even took her trick or treating and she loved it!(we loved it too we got some yummy candy out of it.)
We took Brielle to Disney on Ice, it was so cute to see her. She just lit-up with excitment. We were a little worried at first about taking her, thinking she would get bored and want to run around, but she was a trooper and loved every minute of it (her dad on the other hand fell asleep half way through it). It's crazy how much they think they need to rip you off, their snow cones and cotton candy were $10.00. Pretty much everything there costed an arm and a leg.
I'm exicited for Thanksgiving. My sister and I made a pact saying "okay we will be good for two weeks and try to lose five pounds before and then eat whatever we want on turkey day." Yeah right, it never works that way. I swear when I tell myself I'm going to diet, for some reason, I eat worst than before I was dieting.
I went and saw Twilight last weekend, (LOVED IT!!!!!!!) if you have not seen it yet you need to asap. It is so good and if you are a sucker for love stories, like I am, you'll love it too. I promise.

Well, I will try and get better at blogging.
(oh the black friday ads are on the internet and there are some great deals esp at Wal-Mart if you are crazy like I am to get up at 3 in the morning to go shopping and get those deals lol.)


I Will get some new pic posted too.

Bats / Caves / Cliffs / and Sweaty Tourists

Bats / Caves / Cliffs / and Sweaty Tourists

Another day, another adventure. Little Brielle and family decided to take an outing into the sub-terrainian underworld called Timpanogos Cave. The cave is situated not far from the NOT SO EXCITING Utah Valley, in a the little oasis, American Fork Canyon. As many of you blog readers know, Timpanogos Cave is a hotspot for bored BYU alumni that have remained trapped in the bubble with no hope for escape. While daddy was hopping to see some wild cougars, our luck was against us, and we only saw a few 240+ lb cougar co-eds, all of whom looked as though they were needing a life-flight to rescue them from the 3 mile round trip hike. Little Brielle chugged up the mountain with little effort, she cheerfully waved and greeted the weary travelers as they rolled down the path. Brielle was so exhausted from all of the waving and clapping, that she decided to take a snooze as we entered the cave. Daddy was forced to haul the little sac of potatoes through the winding rock tunnel. We saw plenty of things we wanted to touch, but unfortunately "YOU CAN'T TOUCH THE PETRAFIDE FISH POO" (thats what timp is made of). Well, long story short, Daddy's hip started acting up, Grandma Bosley's heart nearly gave out, and Kirstin decided to hike down in record time, thus ends our story.

Road Trip to West Yellowstone.

Last minute we decided we wanted to get out. So we pulled out the map and decided to head out to West Yellowstone and visit Bear World. The drive wasn't bad and Brielle was pretty easy going for most of the drive. We made a few stops on the way, we stopped in Idaho Falls, Blackfoot and of course Bear world. Bear world was exciting, you drive into a park with black bears and grizzly bears that roam free, of course you have to stay in your car with all windows rolled up. We actually saw one black bear jump on a car hood. The people in the car thought it was funny until they saw their hood and the three big dents on it from the bear's feet. They also have a pettting zoo where they have lots of friendly deer, goats, ducks and of course the pot bellie pig. (Brielle was frightend by the piggy for pictures.) We stayed in a hotel in Island Park right along the river. It was very pretty. Over all it was a really fun road trip it was good to get out for the weekend.

Brielle's first birthday!

Well, It's the big 1 year and Brielle is learning all about fairy princesses and the joy that come from being spoiled rotten. Her mama Kirstin spent all day prepping for the big event. With Brats, Chips, Cake, and ice cream, we had all sorts of guest show up. Brielle was packed around all day without nap time so she was a little cranky at first but brightend up after stuffing a whole cake in her tummy. She got tonz of presents including a remote controlled Hummer compliments of Papa Bosley. Brielle was happy to have all of her grandparents, some great grandparents, and even some uncles aunts and of course, her only cousin Ander to celebrate with her.

The Easter Bunny Came Early

Amid a thousand awnry kids and hundreds of anxious parents, little Brielle was anxious to find the winning egg that could be redeemed for a stuffed animal. Kaysville was never know to draw Nascar type crowds, but this year was different. Thousands of plastic non-biodegradable eggs littered the baseball diamonds and the voice over the loud speaker attempting to keep control of the wave of people, did very little to prevent riotous behavior. Several egg hunters jumped the gun while others prefered trampling the leaders in order to claim the prize. Little Brielle and family were lucky to have spotted a distant part of the field that was ripe for the picking. Brielle found one of the special eggs, and the rest is history. Well, not quite...Brielle found so many eggs that when she spotted another little girl from church without any eggs, she wanted to share- SO SYVIE, you better be nice to Brielle in elementary school. After a short friendship with her new stuffed animal. Brielle gave that away as well...to her sister Kinsey who quickly ripped out the eyes and left it for dead. In anycase, Brielle had a great easter...Oh...and lets not forget all of the PEEPs that Grandma Bosley fed her.

Aloha from Kauai

Brielle earned her wings at only 8 months old. Soaring thousands of miles across the Pacific Ocean, Brielle and Family found their new home (we wish) among the sea turtles and schools of tropical fish. 8 days and 7 nights of pure island bliss accompanied by evenings of Pina Colada sipping and shooting the breeze on the North Coast of paradise. Adventure was on the agenda, and having never been in the ocean, that was Brielle's top priority. Tunnel's beach was the prefered location for dipping the toes and swimming with daddy, even though sharks have been known to eat little girls legs in that area. Occasional trips to the south side's Poipu beach, allowed Brielle to make friends with a big Monk Seal and hundreds of hungry birds and chickens. A Luao at Smith's paradise allowed Brielle to take part in her other favorite activity (after swimming of course) STUFFING her little 17 lbs body with luao pork and tropical fruit.
