We are going to miss this place..

We are home in the mountains now. It's raining and blowing like a son of a B. DANG...

Beach bums

Seems like yesterday Melissa and I were begging my dad to buy us bathing suits and let us go on MTV Jams. It was not exactly yesterday.But,this is how we roll these days. We are official moms now. Melissa has a whole beach toy-chair system. She has these chairs that turn in to backpacks. They also have pockets for towels and toys.(Costco Rocks)! The kids and the moms had such a great day at the beach. We will be back for more soon. There's nothing in the whole world like a good day at the beach.

And I thought I was cool

This was a couple months ago but when I saw the pictures I knew I had to document this night and share a few pictures of my new B.F.F with you all. These girls took me out for a mellow night of listening to the band and a cocktail or two. And then... out of nowhere...things got much more entertaining...

Out of nowhere comes this awesome lady. The outfit was amazing. The dance moves were legendary. Her love of life was simply contagious.

Just when I thought this lady could'nt get any cooler. She seriously hopped on a pink razor scooter and headed off into the sunset.

Closing Time

Whityn turned the big one.

Ivy manhandled chickens


Summer is closing in on us way to quick. We haven't exactly been on a bunch of tropical vacations this summer, but we have spent it with the people we love the most. My mom always said, "Only boring people get bored". We are never bored and here's some picture evidence to back it up. Hey, I didn't say, "exciting"... Just not boring.


Zya< Jaxon> Breslynn... chased around some chickens at Whit's 1st Birthday party..

When the four of us get together I think people wish were were more boring.....

Jaxon makes a splash at the Judo picnic...

Ivy peeps out of the bouncy TeePee... She was taking a quick break from yelling the word, NO at every other kid in the thing.

Ivy latched on to Jazzy. Anyone that knows Ivy knows that thats a rarity.

Yep, we still have spa nights at the Carson house. I have stepped it up a notch lately and have been giving my spa treatments in a "scary slime mask" (as Jaxy calls it).

It's so crazy to me to think that if wasn't for these two men... Jax and I would not be in this picture. My grandpas share the same birthdays and the same love for sexy women and big fish....

So this is the face I got when I told my dad to, "make a sexy face". I'm not sure if its sexy or scary. You decide.

Oh, how I just love a good round pregnant belly. Especially one that I don't have to carry around. My littlest sister in due in a few weeks and looking so adorable. Even her ankles have been good to her this pregnancy. Last time she was this pregnant, I was too. This time the little sister braved it on her own. I can't wait to love on this little girl that she has already named, LAYNIE...............

What a great weekend we had. My cousin Allie got married. That means all sorts of characters were in town to wish her well. I love it when my dad and his crew come to visit us here.

I sometimes think that my kids look so alike, and then I see a picture like this and for some reason they look so different to me.

My grandpa Dan.... Doing what he does best. Napping only comes in second to drawing, playing the harmonica,and copping feels on unsuspecting grand daughters.

Blayke is such a hit with with the little girls. They love playing "mama" to her and Ivy both.

Cousin Allison got married last weekend and was such a gorgeous bride. Jax thought she was a real live princess and was too scared to go near her. Sophie wanted to know, "Why that lady wear a tutu to church"?

Here's proof that we were all there. In all our glory.

This little belly button is so funny to me for some reason.
