Riley & My Dad


This picture is in Tiajuana...I believe they got stuck there for a while going through customs. I wonder what they did to pass time? By the looks of both their smiles, they were up to no good. They have such awesome SMILES. It amazes me! Soon I will post a pic of My dad and me in Mexico too, we both have huge sunglasses and I like to say...We have matching smiles in the pic. We had soooo much fun together. Always! He is so goofy and believed we were all so Blessed. I do believe that! I was blessed to have such a GREAT Dad that loved us so much & would do anything for me! One day my Mom and Dad were in the living room hangin out and I was joking around that Taylor (my lil brother) bugs my dad about buy him a jeep and he not only gets one old jeep, but 3! I just remember Taylor saying, "Dad, Dad, Daaad, Dad....look at this jeep we should go buy it. Then he did. As we were discussing this and laughing about Taylor having this control, LOL my Mom says, "Hmm...Mindy, maybe all you gotta do is Bug Dad?!" I thought well it was worth a shot.... I said, "Ok, Dad....you listening? I thinkin I would look good driving a Black Jetta. I think that would be super cool!" He didn't say one thing and continued to watch t.v. So we went on doing whatever we were doing and just left it at that. Well, about 5-6 days later I had a Chemeketa softball game @ Wallace Marine park. It is a Huge softball complex out in West Salem. You have to drive all the way around the park to get to the parking lot. I remember warming up with all the outfielders, when I heard a horn honking like crazy going right by our field. I look up and take a double take. There was my dad with the window rolled down waving @ me....IN A DARK SNAZZY JETTA!
That is just one of millions of stories I could tell of how MY dad always listens to you, How he LOVES his KIDS and Family and how genuinely Awesome and totally RAD he is and always will BE!

Hope > Something You can ALWAYS hold onto!

My Dad ---> My HERO


Here is Caleb & Connor with "Pa"...They loved to wrestle around on the floor or ride him like a donkey. I miss him soooo MuCH! He was the Best Dad in the World. Never mad angry or grouchy. Always smiling, happy and saying how beautiful I was. Every day, didn't matter what I was wearing or how my hair looked he'd always say, You are a pretty Girl ~ or you sure are Beautiful!
He would always want to be where his family, kids & grandkids were. Playing with them around the house and would always say, "Man, look @ us...Aren't we Blessed?" And make you look and agree with him. He is so So Awesome! And will always Be my HERO!

Baby Blues!



This is my Little (15 year old)/BIG brother....Taylor Jay. Thought I would add him to my blog and show off his Cute lil Smile. (I say cute alot, just if you haven't noticed.) Taylor has a Big Heart and Fun personality! I like to give him facials and wax his eyebrows when he lets me. And that isn't very often anymore. Tear. haha But it makes his big blue eyes pop out way more, and I think because of my help doing that, he was able to get a really Wonderful GIRLFRIEND! Your welcome Big T!

Fancy Stuff ~


I love this picture! The reason why I am posting it is that the green and pink represent the beautiful colors I have choosen for my wedding { plus chocolate brown } And the dresses/skirts are simple but adorable; looks like they are made out of tool....and the tops look like tank tops! Cute CUTE cuuuuute!
