Family Reunion

2008-10-27T15:21:00.000-07:00

We took a trip up to Washington with my Mom and Dad for the Panter/Daley family reunion. It was a very long drive, but fun to spend time with the old family. My sister Nina and her family attended as well. Aunt Kit came along with us and we were a snug fit! It was great to see family from so far away. So much changes in two years, people have more kids, get married and unfortunately pass away! Cherish the times we spend together, who knows whose time on earth is limited! We attended an amusement park/water park, that the kids absolutely loved! Great times~ thanks Moma and Dad for having us tag along :)

Childrens Treehouse Museum

2008-10-24T09:38:00.001-07:00

We took a trip down to the museum in Ogden with our friends and neighbors, the Streets! The kids had a great time discovering and playing with new toys. It's fun to see their imagination and their world of make beleive! Sometimes I wish I lived in that world....or do I?

2008-10-24T09:35:00.000-07:00

Bryce couldn't sleep all night! She was in and out of our room with pee stops and tummy aches. I really think she was just excited for her big day! She is just like her dad - antsy pantsy! Miss princess had a party with lots of friends and family! It was great fun....and of course there was dancing! Princess style! She got some fun toys and clothes! Thanks guys - we appreciate the support! Loves!

And there must be dancing......

2008-10-24T09:33:00.001-07:00

We have started Bryce into some dance classes this fall! She deffinately has some boogy in her! She loves to get down and shake that booty :) I'm not sure ballet and tap is what she was looking for, but thats whats going on for now. She seems to really like it - and it gets her outta the house!

Family Reunion

2008-08-04T10:44:00.000-07:00

We attended a family reunion up in Athol, Idaho. Which is about 60 miles from the Canadian border. So, long drive! But we got to see some distant family that we see every other year. It was fun to hang out and catch up. We went to a Silverwood amusement park with a water park attached. Bryce went on her first big waterslide which was a family tube of 5 people. She was so brave, didnt even cry! It was hilarious to see her face! We stayed in Grandma and Grandpa's motorhome, and it was such a beautiful drive!

7 year Anniversary

2008-08-04T10:32:00.000-07:00

So, we have reached our 7 year itch! Ya, I know.... its totally crazy. We took the kids up to my moms and Brandon had a suprise day planned out for me. All he told me was to wear closed toe shoes and Jeans. (ones that can get dirty) So I packed a over night bag, and we were off. He thought he was so funny and sneaky and was throwing out all these random things trying to scare me, but we ended up at the Heber Creeper in Midway. We rode the train down the beautiful canyon and veered off to a corral where we went horse back riding in the mountains. Brandon is alergic to horses, so it was a real effort on his part. He had popped a few allergy pills a ways back so that he could manage. It was so nice.... very pretty scenery and peaceful! After riding we had a picnic. We headed back to Park City, and I was assuming that we had some time to kill, so I asked Brandon if he wanted to take a look at where I had sang the weekend before and how beautiful it was up there! We headed up to Stein Ericksons Lodge at the top of Deer Valley and I was kind of narrating the drive and we came up to the gentlemen that was mandating the cars. I told Brandon just to tell him we were lost and we would turn arround. Brandon goes on to tell him we have reservations there - and I hit him and said "don't lie to him, just tell him we are lost!" And he looked and me and said "No - we have reservations here tonight!" Yikes, it was so funny. I was totally taken back. If you've ever been up there, it is absolutely gorgeous! So crazy as it was, we got our room, enjoyed swimming in the outside pool with catered fruit as we basked in the sunshine! We took the shuttle down to main street and looked around - did dinner and such! It was a great anniversary! I will have a tough time planning our anniversary next year to even compare! Have any great ideas?

4th Of July

2008-07-12T10:01:00.000-07:00

This year Bandits Hauling was to join in the Kaysville parade along with the Burbidge Brothers. After a long week of preparation the boys got up early to start the water fights. They waited about 2 hours in line and then the parade was stopped right in front of their floats, due to an accident that occured during the parade. The boys were way bummed to say the least. In the mean time, the kids and I watched most of the parade! Nanna, Ashlee, Jazzy and some friends of Ashlee's caught up with us as well. The kids got a little wet, and had a good time! We packed up our things and headed home. Just to pack up more things and head out to Starvation Lake in the motorhome.

Memorial at the Dunes

2008-05-29T14:54:00.000-07:00

We went to the dunes for Memorial and there were a couple of crashes, some bad weather, and little fun in between. Bryce fell into the motorhome and knocked her front tooth in and cut up her lips pretty bad. It was trama. And of course when she sees the blood, then we're are really in for it! Poor thing. I was almost as upset as her! We've since taken her to the dentist and she is going to have to get that tooth pulled. So, that means shes going to be toothless for years, well until her other tooth comes in. Ugh, it was so upsetting though. I just felt so bad! There were a couple of bad crashes in our group. Nat was picked up by the emergency sand rail. She ended up fracturing her spine- Ouch! And Nina's son Jimmy brought a friend out who happened to crash and broke his arm and sprained his wrist! It was awful! Lesson be... watch what type of hill your coming up to, the way down on the other side could be a doozy!

Mothers Day Outting

2008-05-29T14:27:00.000-07:00

For Mothers Day, My mom and all 5 sisters went out. We started at a cousins wedding shower, then we all went off to a tarot card reading. It was a very strange experience. Not sure if we got much out of our forture or future, but there was a lot of laughs. We all ended up at Olive Garden for some yummy dinner! It was a really fun day. Love spending time with my family!

Lake Havasuu

2008-05-07T12:47:00.000-07:00

As a very last minute decision, Brandon and I had the oppertunity to go down to Lake Havasuu with my sister and her husband, along with my cousin and her friends! It was like taking a trip to the islands, but we were here in the US. The water is a greenish blue, the weather was very nice, and the fun free lifestyle was abroad! We hung out in the boat, baking in the sun, but the water a little bit cool! By the Naked Turtle there was a blow up playground.... and yes I did get in the water! It was a lot of fun!

Bad News Blues

2008-04-30T12:52:00.000-07:00

So Bryce and I were playing around and she shut her finger in the car door! Eeekkk - she absolutely hates band aids. Thank goodness she didnt break it, but it was pretty banged up! Then on Friday night I had a gig up in PC with my sister and on my way down Parley's canyon I got a flat tire! So, I called my brother in law to come help me, because Brandon was home with the kids already in bed!(It was like 11:30pm) He drove down from Heber with my sister to help. He changed the tire, put on the spare... we drove off and poof! I pulled over and the spare had blew! Ahhh - so Andy called my dad, dad called Belchers towing to pick up my car for me, and they ended up driving me home! Huge inconvenience, way out of their way from HEBER to LAYTON! But.... I am so greatful they were able to help me out! So, we got up early and headed down to Brandon's football game. The kids and I were watching the game, and somehow Boston dug me right in the eye. Ggrrrrrr - and normally it would have just hurt for a minute and then it would go away....but no! I immediately took the kids to the car because I couldnt see. My eyes were weeping so badly! I literally couldnt open my eye for like a day and a half! It swelled up all big, and I wore sunglasses to hide behind! WE headed up to PC to get my tire fixed on my car, and I wasnt able to drive home because of my eye! It was awful - Kind of a crummy weekend!

Dunes for Mikey T

2008-04-14T12:38:00.000-07:00

Our friend Mikey turned 30, and the whole crew packed up and went down to the dunes for the weekend! It was pretty nice weather - starting to finally feel like spring! Boston was sick, feels like he has been sick for weeks, and Bryce loved playing with her friends!

Playing out Back

2008-04-09T12:41:00.000-07:00

We have had an extra round our house the last few weeks! Our neice Jazmine is with us, as her normal care taker has been out of town! The kids have enjoyed the company, but it deffinately has made me think twice about having anothern. It has been quite challenging at times, finding her in places my kids have not yet discovered - but we love her dearly!

San Diego

2008-03-19T13:20:00.000-07:00

Just a week after our trip to Mexico, we were off to take a trip for our children. We ventured down in our big burtha motorhome to Mission Bay's Campland on the Bay with my whole family. My mother and father and all the girls and their kids. All together there was 26 of us. Oh my goodness did these kids have fun! It was outisde everyday- all day. Bike rides, playing on the beach in the sand, swimming in the pool, playing with all our cousins! Boston cried every time we entered the camper, he was determined to be outside all day! With the help of my neices, the kids we entertained every moment! We drove up to Disneyland - "To see the Princesses"! Bryce was very distracted by the fact that the princesses were there somewhere, that she wasn't interested in any rides. After an hour in line we met a few, and they talked with her, in which we had accomplished what we had come for! Boston did NOT like the loud music on the rides. He clung to my sleeve whenever we entered darkness! The trip was so nice! We couldnt have asked for better weather! And our motorhome did great!

Mexican Riviera

2008-03-19T12:41:00.000-07:00

Brandon and I had the time of our lives cruising along with 34 friends to the Mexican Riviera! We were completely content just enjoying eachothers company. The girls basked in the sunshine, while the boys played shuffle board on deck. Our daily outings were taken at the casino, hot tub, solarium grill for some burgers, dining in the dining room, and ending the night in the Viking Lounge for a whole lot of fun - and dancing! The trip was so laid back and care free. Soooo much fun! We stopped at Cabo and went Jeeping and zip-lining. Mazatlan - we kicked it at the beach and the boys played some football. Puerto Vallarta, we were ridin' dirty in some mechanically challanged dune buggy's through some chilling rivers and muddy puddles. It was so nice to be able to get out in the sunshine and away from our snowy homestead! The trip will be forever memorable!

Happy Birthday Our Baby Boy!

2008-03-17T14:54:00.000-07:00

Little Boston boo turned 1 years old! How time does fly! We had quite the party for the little guy with all our close friends and family. He wasnt sure about the whole cake idea, but soon discovered how yummy it was! Every one was staring and laughing as he licked cake off of his fingers! We later had another party at the Daley home, with the other side of the family, with more cake and gifts! Wow, this kids was a spoiled boy! Thanks to all who came and contributed to our special day!

Jazzy's B-day

2008-02-10T13:12:00.000-08:00

Jazzy was born one week to the day before our little Boston. We have enjoyed watching them grow this past year, as Jaz has taken off running and left Boston in the dust. She is such an active little thing, very busy ~ and extremely adorible!

Curt's birthday party

2008-02-09T18:50:00.000-08:00

January 18th was my nephew's sweet 16 birthday party! He was so nervous - but we were more than happy to put out the effort for the Indian, witch, princess party! It was a lot of fun!

Merry Christmas to All

2008-01-16T14:04:00.001-08:00

This Christmas was a lot of fun with our little Bryce boop! She was alittle overwhelmed with stuff and therefore could not focus, but it was fun! Boston really didn't care about the gifts. but as always enjoyed watching his sister be hyper and crazy! We went out on Christmas Eve to see the lights and go to graves with Brandon's family! We set out our cookies and milk for Santa and off to bed we went! In the morning we woke up to a Jeep and lots of presents under the tree! I need to work on being alittle more secretive next year - most of the gifts were wrapped and under the tree long before the big day! Hey - I'm new at this stuff! And then, of course the big day was filled with lots of food and family around! We are so blessed to have such wonderful families! We are so very grateful for the lives that we are able to live!

Thanksgiving Day

2007-11-28T20:04:00.000-08:00

Thanksgiving Day consisted of a long drive out to Riverton to see my family, a short visit, and then a dinner with Brandon's side of the family in Layton! Then we had Thanksgiving back at home with my family for Sunday dinner!

Since Thanksgiving is a time for thanks, we are most thankful for our children! Our little Bryce is such a sweetheart at times. And can be very motherly and protective of her little brother! The funny things that she says can always keep us laughing! And for our little Boston, he is so gentile and shy. He is most loving and easy going. We are so truely blessed!

Utah Utes vs BYU Cougars

Halloween 2007

2007-11-07T08:24:00.000-08:00

Our little actress was snow white this year. And it was almost instantanious to when she put on her dress, she was to act like a lady and a true princess. She is very good at role playing and loves to make believe. It was more than just a dress! Boston was a dragon fly. And other than he look adorible, he wasnt too into the whole halloween event! Daddy was David Bowey from the movie the Labrinth. And Brycey loved calling him Goblin King. To her.... he was her master! Mom was pretty darn boring - A dead stuartist of some sort.
