I sometimes find myself checking other peoples blogs or sites more often then keeping mine up to date but I wanted to share this great blog called The Pioneer Woman (I have a link to the site on my side bar). The name isn't what you think, it is amazing listening to her stories, and trying out her great recipies (I made the Crash Potatoes last night and they were a keeper!). She also does alot of photography and gives hints and tips on how to make photos just right. Anyways this site became my very favorite when I read her Love story about her husband Marbol Man and herself called Black Heels to Tractor Wheels. I got lost in this story for like 2 hours because it is so real and a great love story that actually made me laugh out loud!!

The Weekend!
We had a great family weekend Trevor was off of work so we just hung around the house and cleaned. Avinlee is getting closer and closer to turning 1 she is 11 Months and 3 Weeks. The in-laws went to a rabbit show and brought home 2 English Floppy Eared Rabbits while visiting they just couldn't resist giving her this yummy popcicle....

We have officially bloomed!
I have officially finished planting my flower beds!! We live in a great neighbor hood that someone takes care of our lawns and we only have to do flower beds. So for my in-laws gave me a bunch of different flowers and plus while father's day shopping I just had to pick up more. Today when I got home from work with Avinlee I was so excited to see one of my lilly's had bloomed!!! I totally thought this moment was blog worthy. I just hope my green thumb improves but so far so good!!! Sorry the picture is the greatest.

One of a Kind!
It has been so fun to watch Avinlee get bigger. Everyday I get to laugh about the new things she has learned. She loves to pull hair now and honestly when she pulls mine I pull her's back! It really hasn't helped and I give up before she does. Over the weekend we went to Grand Junction, CO to visit family and see Trevor's friend get married. We had a great time seeing everyone. We found out that Avinlee really is one of a kind, she found a new love, the suit case (See Pics)

60th Wedding Anniversary Party
Over the weekend Trevor's Grandparents celebrated their 60th Wedding Anniversary. We had some family pictures and of course Trevor showed up late like usual from work. We had a great time watching everyone dance and eating the yummy treats. Lib and I both made gifts for them I made the quilt and she made scrap book type book for Grandpa Bell and one for Grandma Bell. Each family member wrote about their fondest memories and Lib put their family picture with them. I didn't get a lot good pics so hopefully she will post some on her Blog.
