Avery is 9 years old

Avery is so funny. She always makes us laugh. Her hair is getting Blonder and has more waves. She had her 1st stage of braces on. She loved them. Avery was always happy to go see Dr. Young and to see the staff. She really likes to mess with Spencer. She told Dr. Young that she gets to be the babysitter for them when she is 11 years old. He told her he was waiting for her to be old enough to sit for them. LOL

Avery is always giving hugs. She gives the best hugs ever. She always remembers those in need in her prayers. Avery will ask questions about her Heavenly Father a lot. She will tell us how happy she is that she picked Steve and I for her Parents. I take her to the Bus every morning. I park so that I can wave goodbye to her. On one day I could not park at my spot. So I could not wave goodbye to her. I started to tear up "SAP"

I love that she loves to be outside. She is not afraid to get dirty or to do hard work. If you ask her to go get a tool you need, She can go get it. She loves to help her dad with anything he is doing.



This year she had horses at her birthday. She loves to ride and hopes to do Barrel Racing and to be a Rodeo queen one day.


It seems as if I was just planning her 8th Birthday. Avery is so LOVING. All of her teachers love her and even the staff at the school tell me how much they love miss Avery.




She loves animals. When she was in Kinder she wrote about what she wanted to be when she grew up, it said " wen i gro up i want to be a vet and a momy" I really like that she is not afraid to catch a chicken, ride a horse or be with the goats.

She hopes to have an office in her house so she can still be at home with the kids like her mommy. She does want to train Dolphins too.
Happy 9th Birthday SWEETIE!

Times are a changing

Ty and Kylie moved to Georgia. They are doing so good. I love them and miss them so much. It is so nice to have a great daughter-in-law. I can not wait for them to have kids. They are going to be soooooo cute.. Good luck to you both XOXOXO!!!

Shelby is working for Dr. Brown and loves it! She is growing up to be a great adult. She will soon start school to be a dental asst. She paid off her car and has savings in the bank... She loves to babysit now and makes good money doing it. Steve and I are so happy that she loves her life and job.

Aaron will be a Junior this year. He wants to go to Texas state. They have a good football team, well that's what he thinks. I hope he will get his drivers licenses, it will make my life a better. Aaron went to the church prom this year. He looked so handsome and his date was beautiful inside and out.

Travis will be a Freshman this year. He is always working out. LOL!! I had to put my foot down and txt some girls that txt him. I don't think they new about MAMA BEAR.. Travis- mom I don't know how they get my number? MOM- ok! I still don't want that girl to txt you. Travis- ok! but mom when they see a hot Mormon boy they got to have him.. MOM- sure trav sure. LOL

Avery will be in the fourth grade this year. She is growing up so fast. Wait that means I am getting older too. Ave loves to ride horses, playing softball and playing outside. She asked me the other day, MOM will Heavenly Father not let my friends move anymore. MOM- well ave it is hard for mommy and daddy's to find jobs. Ave- why? MOM- well, it just is. Ave- ok mom. I will pray that if daddy or Nick needs a job we will live together and you and Elizabeth can cook and clean.. That way Ky does not have to move. AWWWW I just love that big heart of hers.

School starts in two weeks. This Summer we went on MINI VACATIONS. We spent lots of time with family and got cheep hotels. We even stayed in a VILA-- always in the pool and playing games. We did the Summer movies and went to the Library. Ave did the Summer reading challenge. She is doing so great with reading. I have a hard time getting her to read, this was the best way. She had to pick a reading goal and every week she gets a prize. She picked 19 books but has read much more WAHOOOO!! We planted A garden and grass in front and back yard and Built a chicken coop. Steve and I went to girls camp and had a fabulous time. Aaron and Travis went on a High Adventure with the church. They had a great time. They hiked, camped, went to the temple. did a service project, swam in the lake and loved seeing all the cute girls..

So as this Summer comes to an end and school starts, we look to the future. We hope to read are scriptures more, attend the temple more, have lots of fun and get closer as a family.

How long will it last?

Every morning I take Avery to school. She always gives me a kiss. Then she says " Love you MOM" I always say " Make it a great day " So know she says " Make your day a great day mom". She is so loving.

So the other day I was in her class room. She ran up to me gave me a hug and a kiss. She always does this and it makes me so happy. So I went to leave the school and at this time Avery was in the Reading class. I went in and said hi to a teacher then said goodbye to Ave. She sat up to give me a kiss and a hug. A girl in the Reading class said EWWWW. I got sad. I thought " No! know she won't do this anymore " and then another girl said " Don't say that. That's her mom" WAHOOOOOOOO!!!! After Ave got home I asked her what she thought about what happened. She looked at me grabbed my checks and said " I WILL ALWAYS KISS YOU MOMMY ". AHHHH I just wanted to cry with happy tears..

I am sure that day will come when she won't kiss me in front of others. I am just happy it has not happened yet.... :)
