Here are some recent pics of Skylee. Grandma Cowdell brought back this cute hula skirt from Hawaii.

Skylee

I thought these were some cute pictures of Skylee. So I thought I would share.
For some reason she likes to sit with Tank in his bed and put a blanket on him. I guess he looks cold.

Grandpa Van's Birthday

January 19th was my grandpa Van's birthday. So that Sunday grandma invited us up for dinner. It was a wonderful dinner as usual!! Grandma is a pretty amazing cook.
I love going up there and spending time with them. Grandpa Van is very special to me. He is one of the toughest men I know but in the same hand one of the kindest!! I love him so much and so honored every time I get to visit him. He has a special place in my heart!! I love you Grandpa!! Happy Birthday

The Chatter

Oh no we have another cutting horse fan!! Look out Grandpa's

Skylee

So for Christmas Skylee received this vacuum and she goes around the house vacuuming. It cracks me up I just wished it really worked!!

Happy New Year

Bring it on 2009!!!
I'm so excited about the New Year and what it will bring to everyone. So far so good!!
On New Years Eve we asked everyone what was the best thing of 2008. I was thinking about this and I realize I have so many things to be greatful for and realize how pretty damn lucky I am.
I have the best husband in the world. He works hard everyday to make sure I'm able to stay home with Skylee, and we get a long so well. He always put his family over what he wants or needs. He is probably the most unselfish person I know.
Then my family I love them so much and so greatful everyday that I have them. I know they are always there for me.
And probably the best thing that every happened to me would be Skylee. She is a little angel.
I never wanted to be a mom and I realize that is the best job in the world and would never want to trade that for anything. I can't wait to teach her everything that I was taught by my parents and grandparents.
So anyways I'm wishing everyone a Happy and Healthy New Year!!!

Sledding

So Josh Skylee and I thought it would be fun to hook Rooster up to the sled and pull her around the yard. Sky had a better time riding the horse then the sled. So dad and I took turns.

Christmas Day

Christmas 2008 was pretty awesome!!
Christmas Eve we went over to my mom and dad's for Christmas Dinner and to open gifts. Skylee thought it was great to help open gifts!!
Then Christmas morning Josh woke everyone up at 6:00am to open gifts. He is worse then a little kid!! And after that went to Lisa's to open gifts and have breakfast with everyone. It was really nice!!
Skylee recieved a couple of dolls but she has no intrest in them what so ever. She got a 4-wheeler from unlce Cody and she loves that. But I think her favorite toy was her Dyson vacuum!! She has to takes that everywhere!!
Then after we went down to Lisa's game room played pool and sang Karaoke!! Sky loved the microphone and the dancing!! I'm wondering if I have the next Solid Gold Dancer on my hands!!

Christmas Glitter



Yeah Christmas is almost here!!! Its seems like yesterday I was putting the tree up and begging Skylee not to pull the ornaments off of it!!
I think Josh and I are more excited to have Skylee open gifts then she is!!

Anyways Josh, Skylee and I are wishing everyone a safe and Merry Christmas!!!

NFR

So we just got back from the NFR. And what a time we had. Thursday night we went to the rodeo and we had awesome seats thanks to Wes. And the rest of the time we were shopping. I can't believe it but I actually got tired of shopping. Josh said that he was going write that one down. I wanted to buy everything for Skylee but Josh told me no!!
It was nice to get away and not be parents for a weekend. We forgot what that was like!!
My cute dad watched Skylee during the days we were gone. It sounds like they had a great time watching cartoons and playing!! Now everytime I say "Grandpa" she gets so excited.
But I'm so happy to be back home. I was so homesick for Skylee that I wanted to come home early. Nothing compares to your home and family!!!
