Another Catch Up...

Where does the time go?!? 

In my last post I was talking about things that are happening now or that have happened. Normally that would be ok, but... not when NOW is 7 months later! So we get to play catch up AGAIN! 

To start out, Tyson finished two semesters at BYU-I this past winter and spring. Since he hasn't and wouldn't I am going to go ahead and brag for him for a second!

Spring Semester Final Grades:

7 A's, 1 B

GPA 3.8

21 credits and did amazing!

So happy for him that he did such a great job, he worked hard and that hard work definitely paid off! :) 

Speaking of spring and knowing spring is baby time, we welcomed Miss Fancy into our herd family!

This was just hours after being born 

but now she looks like this...

She is a Bay Roan

Taylee loves her horse!

We are waiting to hear back from AQHA to see what name they approve for her registered name. We hope it ends up being Dun Been Frosted! She is by my Aunt Tammy's stud Tiger Dun It.  We are pretty happy with this cute little girl! We can't wait for baby (horsey) #2 next spring!:)  

We added one horse to the herd and sold another..

I had a hard time even putting Jazzy up for sale, but I had an even harder time watching her just stand out in the corral.  She has so many more years left in her and we were lucky to have such a fun family find her.  This is Rayley and she fell in love with Jazzy, just like I did! What a blessing it was to find such a loving family that Jazz could go be apart of.  They still keep in touch and give me updates on all her rodeos and barrel races. Ray and Jazz won their first buckle just 3 weeks after they bought her! Knowing Jazz is making another little girls dreams come true makes it all worth it in the end!

We also were so lucky to spend another week with Bishop McMullin and his family at DL&L in July.  What a blessing that was, what an amazing group of people.

Well back to schooling, after Ty finished up his finals we shuffled horses around, packed up and headed to Utah to visit with family for a few weeks.  Middle of August came and we headed to California! We made it a two day trip to let Taylee rest and get out of her car seat.

  She was such a good girl the entire trip here! We finally pulled into South Valley Farms here in Wasco where we live ON the processing plant.  Makes for a noisy day and night, 24-6! But hey our little house here is great so we can't complain there. We have been here for just over a month now and time is flying by.  We were called as the Valiant 11-12 year old Primary teachers, we team teach them so one can teach while the other entertains Taylee.  It is Pistachio harvest right now on top of the Almond harvest. Just last week Tyson had to work the graveyard shift (all week)... yeah nothing good to say about that other than the 12 hour shifts bring in good money. Taylee and I really hope he doesn't have to go back to them ever again!:) We don't like them in case you couldn't tell! (haha) Tyson didn't seem to mind since he got to work when it wasn't so hot. We are hoping once harvest slows down in October we'll be able to go play at the beach! All in all we really enjoy it here so far. We have a great ward and a lot of amazing families here on the farm that we are having fun with.  

Now for Taylee's catch up...

She will be 8 months old tomorrow, it seems like just yesterday I was still counting down the days till her due date.  She loves her horses, her dog Dalley, yogurt snacks, green beans, squash, pears, babbling away and being crazy!  She can sit and stand by herself, isn't to thrilled about crawling yet but.. I am just fine with that! She is going to be into EVERYTHING once she figures that out! Tyson on the other hand is encouraging her almost everyday.:/  Ready or not... Here she comes!:) 

She also has one tooth with the another trying to poke its way through. We love our teething baby!:)  I haven't taken her 8 month pictures yet but here is some of the last few months pictures:

7 months

6 months

5 months

Just a few recent ones of her..

She is our little princess who we love so much! What a blessing she is!  

Hopefully that was a good catch up, sorry if I jumped around a lot.  Hopefully next post won't be another 7 months, I will try even harder this time to do better.

Till Next Time...
