Deb's gals


Breanne and I had a great time in SLC on Saturday night! Calyn is knocked up so her and my mom stayed in the hotel room and watched a movie while Bre and I met up with Cousin Brogan and went downtown.

We are having such a good time I can't even keep my eyes open!!!!!

On the way down we made a quick stop at Uncle Dell's house and were served a delicious sandwich on Dell's famous homeade bread.

My mom drove all three of her rowdy girls to SLC for a great weekend of shopping and dining that we all loved so much..... The husbands watched the kids and mine even had our house sparkling clean upon my arrival! Thanks Roscoe..

Thanks again Ross for doing such a great job keeping down the fort while I got to spend time with my mom and sisters! Love you

Protests and shopping!!!

So saturday Blayke and I headed to Jackson in search of some dresses for Lauryn. Not an easy task when the dress hunter is a statuesque blond that stands 6 feet and 3 inches tall. We found one keeper and gave up on the dress hunt to do more important things.

We stopped in JH Clothiers so Blaykers could squeeze in a quickie snuggle with her mommy who was busy hustling tourists into buying coats and boots with big price tags.

Then I almost forgot the REAL reason we came to town... (wolf protesting), of course. We snuck a photo with this wolf hater under the antler arches and I dared Lauryn to yell obsenities to some wolf lovers, but she refused. I threatned to embarrass my sweet little teacher friend by joining in on the protest a few times but she somehow kept me under control.

Then I almost bought this sheared beaver/fox fur coat that cost just a mere 6,000 bucks. I really thought about it! Then I remembered that my poor kids would have to starve for the next year and I would be quickly served divorce papers from my sweet Roscoe. What? They don't take layaway?. I just had to settle for this picture of me in my 6 grand coat instead. This is so the face I would make everytime I wore this coat if it was really mine to wear. I would have no choice!!!

Greenie day!!!


Papa Leo not only was in the circus, he is also trained in the field of "bunny handling".


I sometimes wish I could just eat his sweet little face for breakfast...

So we had a raging St. Patty's day party at our place. It was wild.. So wild that I had to bust out aunt Cindy's real life 1970 something jazzercise gear and perform some killer moves to really get the party started. We had pot roast and blondies! The whole party consisted of 3 adults and 4 kids.... My kind of party for sure..

I kinda want to eat her for lunch! Just look at that toothy grin........

Not such big news!


My new playroom project is a real hit with the kiddos...

Bubba came to visit and gave Ivy an old fashioned scrub down.

Now I have some time to vacuum like the OCD nightmare I have become. The kids stay upstairs and run wild wild, while I savor the sweet humming noise of my beloved Kirby Vacuum that I am way too proud of.

Summer's coming!!! We at least pretend by breaking out the Popsicles! When it hits 46 degrees I may even put a few shrimp on the barbie.......

The other day I was in my room and I heard Jaxon say, "Ladies and gentleman, for your entertaining pleasure I will play the homdonnika! I quickly grabbed my camera to snap a picture of his captive and approving audience....

The Clampett's drive to Utah


Don't mind my super appropriate/see thru baptism attire! We changed clothes on the fly and in seriously 2 minutes. Half of the changing was done in the car.

We made it to Dallins baptism with one minute to spare! I had been driving for 5 hours and made it to the big event in just the nick of time.

This is Renee! She was my co pilot for the trip...........

Words cannot explain what a monster Jax was on the way home. Poor Tori Jo had to sit in the back and listen to his constant whining and crying. It was so bad that at one point Aunt Tori had to even threaten a spanking............... I guess you get the point that we were in a hurry! Such a hurry that that Del Taco cup Jax is nestled up against was used for more than quenching his thirst. Renne was the genius who finally convinced Jax to pee in the cup so we didn't have to stop by telling him that that's what astronauts do. He was sold on the idea and I can't wait to try the, "Astronauts go to bed at 7:30 trick"......

Blayke gets a gold star for the best behavior on the trek home..........

We stayed with Tasha, John, and crew in their new house. As always she was the best hostess ever. Can I please live in their house when I grow up?

Sweet little Ivy was asleep for only about 30 minutes........DANG!

Jaxon had such a great time playing with Carson! They are the cutest little cousins/friends.......

Who knew that Tori Jo and I would both be sporting super sexy Christmas socks on March 5th. Great minds think alike and this is just a little photo evidence...

Camry wanted to show me her cool party trick! She was so surprised that I have the same special trick up my sleeve. She said, " I had no idea that a mom could do that"! Please excuse the photo but it really is my only trick and I'm kinda proud.

I love that these two little girls enjoy having drinks together just as much as their mommies do. Cheers!

The good news is we are home and happy!!!!

This is what I call service...

So I have this really amazing hairdresser! I go to her house, we watch "The Bachelor", have drinks and I get beautified all on the comfort of her couch. How much does a service like this cost you may be wondering? Well, let's just say I get the free99 discount! She's all mine and I could'nt be more grateful for this wonderful service she provides me and my golden locks.....

life or something like it


What is going on here? I think she is telling me stories about marathons and organic baby food.. Or maybe she is telling me all about her hot # she will be wearing for her 30th disco inspired bash. I still remember what she wore to my 25th bday party. It reminds me just how long we've been friends and how much she loves me....
Anyone want to come hang out with us for spring break? This will be the view from your bedroom window. Just think of it as an adventure. You will be risking your life everytime you leave the house. You won't even have to worry about how you look in your bathing suit either. Come on over! I heard MTV is putting the beach house here next year! Or an igloo... It's where all the cool kids are coming these days. Victor, Id is the new spring breaker's paradise............................May be a bit nipply, but we will be sure to show you a good time............


I have no idea if this is even allowed on the internet. I just thought she looked so cute I had to throw it on here............

Are there peacocks in Nepal?

Oh Kelli,how can I I even begin to explain our frienship? It's impossible so I wont even try. She knows my soul. I love her and hate her guts all at the same time. I worry about her all the time. I wake up with dreams of her still in my head.

We have really grown up together in so many ways.... UNEXPLAINABLE but beautiful.....

This is a picture that she sent me at 3 am yesterday. It is her and I riding peacocks in Nepal. No, I am not kidding! Some of the best things in life need no explanation at all.

porn for women

How do you know a man loves you? I just figured this one out for sure... My husband cleaned out our closet and made it mycloset. Now I know for sure he really loves me. I tried to get a picture of him beside his handiwork and he denied me. So enjoy these tasy pics instead!




I just had to document this massive act of love! I've never been more turned on!

My Crew

THIS IS MY CREW....AND THIS IS WHAT WE DO


We enjoy delicious meals of "fried everything" and lots of dips to choose from

We sometimes even take baths in the kitchen sink

Ivy sneaks on the kitchen table while her BFF bathes in the kitchen sink. She then proceeds to put diaper cream in her freshly washed hair and then screams when she has to get down.

we dress up in random things we find in the coat closet.

We have beach blanket parties where we pretend like it's summer. We listen to surf music, wear our bathing suits, and have picnics on our beach blanket.

Ivy dresses up up Blayke as a Playboy Bunny

Jaxon pretends he's a an archaeologist with a grimm reaper tattoo. He looks long and hard for fossils in the cake pan that I filled with moon sand.

Ivy plays fire chief and blows at the fire place and whispers the word, H-o-t a million times in a row. We clap and she continues.....PROUDLY
