House still for sale!!




So our house is still up for sale! So if any one know someone who would like to buy a 1100 square foot townhome ours would be a good one to buy. It has two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. All the kitchen appliances are included so are the washer and dryer. We will have the carpets cleaned before anyone moves in. We will also change the water filters. It has a one car garage and guest parking around the homes. We are asking $187,000.00.

Family Reunion

This is Dave. Yup, Hollie is making me write again. So, we had a reunion for my mom's side of the family. Its a pretty good reunion. We have an auction for white elephant gifts that everyone brings and they sell raffle tickets for a home-made quilt. The games were a little disorganized for the kids, but they didn't seem to mind. They just wanted the water balloons.

This is my sister Jamie and her son Brady. He's a balloon fan.
This is my neice, Sophie. She is really cute and always nice as long as you don't let her within biting distance of her brother.
This is where we set up giant volleyball.

Its not as easy as regular volleyball.
My dad with Brady and Sophie. ( I have 5 other niece/nephews, but they didn't hold still long enough to be photographed )
Ring toss with my nephew Parker
I think Hollie takes pictures of babies a lot. Is she trying to tell me something?
Me on the left, sister Jamie in the middle, brother Kelly on the right.
Hollie was pretty excited about the white elephant gift she got in the auction. She has been wanting a nice wooden cutting board and got one and later found out that it was made by one of my relatives. We also got an alarm clock. You see, the gifts are all wrapped so you don't know what its going to be. We didn't need an alarm clock, but luckily my mom needed one for the cabin, so she took it.

Spanish Fork!

For the Stalder Family Reunion we went to Diamond Fork, which is up Spanish Fork Canyon. We went for 3 days and 2 nights. We always go somewhere different which is fun. This place was nice and shady and it had a stream to fish and lots of open space to play games.

My Dad let me follow him around Friday morning to watch him fish. I like to do it cause not only am I spending time with him but he is the only one that catches anything. Though I did catch one this trip.

My Dad and one the several fish he caught.

My Grandma, she is the cutest Grandma.


We retired my Grandparents flag. It was flown during my Grandpa's furneral.

The scissors my aunt used were my Grandpa's work scissors. My Grandma pulled them out just for this.






We played some games that my Mom brought. We played a game with the hula hoops and then a racing game. Tyler and Coby were really getting into the games which made it even more fun.
Dave and I
The HUGE spider that was behind Tyler around the camp fire. This picture doesn't do it justice. They saw an even bigger one the next morning on a tent. Dave made me check the sleep bag to make sure there were no spiders in his bed.

Shalyee feeding Grandpa his breakfast.

This was a fun camping trip, I am excited to find out where we go next year.

Cosmo's nose!




So the other day I took Cosmo to go get his shots, we went at 8 in the morning. He did really well when the nurse gave him the shots. We came home and around 3 Cosmo and I decided to take a little nap. Dave woke us up around 5:30 and when Cosmo came out from underneath the blanket his nose had swelled from the shots!! It was huge!! So I hurried and called the vet back and made it over there before they closed to get another shot to make the swelling go down. It took about 2 days for it to go back to normal. Poor little guy.

Happy Birthday Dad!

Today is my Father's birthday. I just wanted to let him know that I love him so much! And I am so glad and proud that he is my Dad. Not only is my Dad he is my best friend. We have had a very great relationship from the start. I have always been a Daddy's girl and always will be. I love spending time with my Dad and have learned so much from him. He is a great example of a man who loves the gospel with all his heart. Always putting God first. I love his sense of humor, he can always make me laugh. I love that he will call me to tease me or just to say "Hi", and "I love you". He loves my mother dearly, his family, the outdoors, fishing mostly, a good book, a nice nap, a good western movie, gardening, spending time with friends, making people laugh, and learning more about the gospel. I love you Dad and I am so glad to say that you are my Father.

Our Weekend

Ok first I need to wish my sister in-law Stacey a Happy Birthday. It was on July 17, I'm a little late at posting it. So Happy Birthday Stacey!! So glad you are in our family!
Ha ha this last Friday we went to Wal Mart with Lindsey and Ranie to go see all the people that were waiting in line for the "Breaking Dawn" book. Man there was a lot and I am so glad we weren't waiting in line. Since we were there of course we had to ride the bikes. I accidently deleted the one where Dave was facing me but Ranie said she had one so she would send it to me. The tire was completely squished to the ground.

Lindsey wasn't feeling well so she decided to sit on the lovely Wal Mart floor.

And this is Ranie waiting while we goofed around

Ha ha ah Tubby with the fashionable life jacket on. It looked even more hilarious on Dave but once again I deleted that photo as well, once again Ranie has one! So I will post it when she emails it to me.

This is Cosmo! I tried to get a picture of him with both ears up, but I wasn't quick enough. I took this picture to show you what he looks like before he is shaved. I am sick of his nasty dog hair all over the place. SO.....
This is what he looks like when he is shaved! I told them to shave off as much hair as possible. I about cried when I had to leave him there. I don't know what I am going to do when we go to Canada for ten days. And I am going to have a very hard time when we have kids and have to leave them.

My father's birthday isn't until the 5th so I will do another post about him then too. We had his birthday dinner on Saturday night at my parent's house.

Ha ha him and his crazy expressions! I made the cookie dessert

Caden pulled out the old ab wheel. Sadly my Dad could do more than I could. I could only manage one.

Ha ha Caden had fun trying to do it. His Dad was the one who could do the most. He did it like it was nothing.

It was the most fun to see Shaylee try it. She just stuck it underneath her chin and would roll it back and forth.

We also went to Dave's old missionary buddy's house. His wife is having a baby and he threw her a baby shower. It makes me very baby hungry. I can wait though. :)
