Baby!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------a very content baby!

Ash had her in for her check up yesterday every thing was really good no jaundice, and almost back to her birth weight

Elizabeth!

Elizabeth got to go home yesterday! the swelling in her nose finally went down enough for her to breath without any help, Ash was very happy, both seem to be doing good at home?
I have been printing pictures all morning had 560 saved, Haven't printed any since our trip to Durango in March, I did go though them and ended up with about 190 keepers. Changed out my Picture boards so have a whole new wall to look at. Plus freed up a whole lot of room on the puter. Guess that give me more room for Elizabeth pic!

An Introduction!

Here she is!

Introducing!

Elizabeth Katherine

Born On September 5Th, 2007 at 5:18 pm

She weighed 7lbs 15oz and is 20 inches long

She is pretty bruised as you can see from coming nose up instead of nose down, and they have been giving her oxygen because she's having a hard time breathing through her nose, (due to the bruising and swelling) There keeping her a extra day or two til the swelling goes down, but other than that she's wonderful. as you can see she likes being spread out and with no blanket and she already sucks her thumb, I hope to have new pics tomorrow as a lot of the bruising has went away. oh mom and dad are doing great also!

The waiting game!

So here's how far the garage has come,

We have been home the last two weekends as we are awaiting the arrival of Ashley's baby, so as you can see we have got a lot done.

I am having serious Yellowstone with drawls, as everybody knows this is the time we are there and have been for the last 8 yrs, were kinda talking maybe going up around the 20Th even if its just for a few days. but we will have to wait and see.

We left again on the 7th

We had no sooner got home and turned around on the 7th and went to flaming gorge! All of the girls went up and stayed on Wed and the guys came up on Friday till Sunday.

Jack found a really great spot right on the water and they even launched the boats right there.

We took baby Chelle with us and she had a ball, she's a little fish and would stay in the water till her little teeth chattered, then she'd cry when we made her get out and warm up, as you can see all of the kids had a ball in the water, oh and the fishing was pretty good also Jason caught the big fish of the weekend at 33lbs.

We came home on Sunday and I took mom to mesquite on Monday, uncle Ray, my cousins Lisa, Vicki, and Cathy (she's visiting from Wisconsin) all went down so we drove down and met them. We had a great visit, other than it was 114 degrees there which was way to hot, but as long as you stayed in the casinos you were OK!

Sat Kolby, Ashley, and I drove to Grand Junction and took Kolby school shopping (probably the last time as she is planning on graduating in Jan) she found some really cute stuff and Ash and I got some last minute things for the new baby.

So to sum it all up in the last month I have been clear across Wyoming, into Montana, down through Idaho, clear across Utah, into Nevada, and finally to Colorado! cant wait to start planning out next trip!

July 25th

We landed in West Yellowstone on the 25th and stayed trough the 30th,
We had a wonderful time the weather was perfect with rain showers every afternoon and high about 66 degrees, what more could you ask for after coming through 104 degree days, anyways the trip ended to soon, but were hoping to go back the middle of Sept, depending on when Ashes baby gets here,

top of the world

This is the top of Beartooth pass, very beautiful drive a bit steep to take the trailer but we did!
