Happy 14th Birthday Taylor

Happy Birthday to my beautiful daughter. I can not believe that she is 14.  Wow how the time flys. 





The cake did not turn out the way I wanted it to.

Halloween 2010

We had alot of fun this year for Halloween.  I thought that maybe I could get out of Trick or Treating.  I know what a sucky mom.  So I asked the kids hey instead of trick or treating why dont we just get candy and make carmal popcorn and stay home and watch scary movies.  They got excited and said ya lets do that.  Well the day before Halloween they said mom where are our costums?  I said well I thought we were just going to stay in and watch a movie?  They said yes but after we go trick or treating. lol

My Nephew monkey Breken



 My Nephew the Dragon Carver.

 Haegen the Boxer.  Now does that just not suit him or not? lol

 I think I did a good job on his make up, and no his brother did not give him that black eye. lol

 Bryce wanted to be the killer.

 Taylor wanted to be a rocker chick.  So I kept thinking of the movie Girls just wanna Have fun.

 Taylor's BFF's Dacie and Nichelle.

Now tell me that that wouldn't be a great albem cover. 

Haegen 2010

Haegen is growing into such a young man. He was baptised this year and he started scouts. He is the best little helper around and he always wants to help who ever he can.

Bryce 2010

Oh my baby Bryce, (aka Whooby). I can't believe that my little guy is in kindergarten. He is such a hard worker when it comes to school. He is the funniest kid! He has a nick name for me....babe. Ya this kid is a nut. He is a big daddy's boy lately, he will come up to me and say babe where's Rhett B? We love this kid.

Taylor turns 14

Wow I so can not believe that I have a 14 year old. That is so crazy to me. Taylor had a fun day I hope. She had all the family over for cake and Ice Cream. She got clothes and Money. What 14 year old doesn't like that for their birthday. She is such a good girl, she makes good choices and has good friends. I know that she will be a great young woman. Happy Birthday Taylor Janessa

Haegen's Baptism

Haegen had his birthday on Friday the 15th and we Baptized him the next day. We decided to do it this way because Rhett would be working for the Stake Baptisms and we didn't want to wait to long.

It was a really nice day. Most of our family was there. Haegen was not nervous or scared at all. He was really cute about the whole thing. My little brother Dillon Baptized him and My dad Confirmed him. Dillon bought him a suite for his big day and he looked like a handsome little missionary. It was so funny to watch the little cousins faces when they opened the curtain to the fount. They were in awe. Dillon has a 2 year old and he thought it was really neat. The spirit was really strong. I'm always so grateful when we have these opportunities and when the spirit is strong, because Rhett doesn't go to church every week and I love it when he can feel the spirit like that. He knows that the church is true and everything and he promotes Family Home Evening and Family prayer but he would rather go hunting or fishing then to Sunday church. So this day was good on all accounts. Rhett went into the dressing room to help Haegen and we had a good day. One person that was greatly missed was my grandpa Mecham. But I know that he was there in spirit and that he is truly happy that Haegen choose to get Baptized. I also know that my grandpa is thankful that I was diligent in getting my children to church so that they can learn and make the right decisions.

The Sunday before all this Rhett was gone working and the boys were not in the mood to sit through Sacrament and I had to get after them. When I was sitting in class thinking oh my heck why do I even bother, (doing the pity pot thing) it came to me so strong, I pictured Haegen getting Baptized and a voice said "this is why you bother."

I know that the church is true and I have faith that if I keep doing the things that I need to do and if I am diligent in teaching my children the right paths then eventually Rhett will join me in church and then in the temple.

Well I sort of got off on Haegen's day. So any way he has been going to scouts now and loves it so much. He got his book and was doing all the things he could to pass them off.

I will post pictures of his big day when I get them from my brother. Of course I couldn't find my camera that day, come to find out it got kicked under my couch and we found it two days later.

Haegen Turns 8

Wow I can not believe that my little guy is eight years old. He is such a cutie pie. Well his birthday was on a Friday, so he had a friend party that day. Thank goodness he has alot of cousins because it was fall break week end and only 2 friends from school showed up to his party. But I don't even think that he noticed because he had all his cousins there.

So he partied it up on Friday and he got a new bmx bike from us and lots of fun things from everyone else. He had lots of fun.
