Hunting Season is upon us. LAME. It means that I become a single mother again. It means that my husband isn't around to make me laugh until I want to puke or take over when I'm at my wits end with a one year old and a two year old. It means that Travis misses out on EVERYTHING we do, fun or not so fun. This weekend, he missed out on a blast. I took the girls up north for Granny Bev's 85th Birthday party. Best Rhodes party ever. Why? Because of this:
The Slip N Slide was a huge hit thanks to Aunt Nelly. It was so much fun! And my little brother Randy was pretty entertaining to watch. He got some major air!
Taylee loved it too. Brielle is too much of a chicken to participate, but Taylee is still young enough to be pretty near fearless!
Hayley was the best little babysitter and kept offering to take my girls down the slide. My girls love her!
I know it's blurry, but this is where Brielle parked her cute little booty for the night. I don't think Grandma was complaining either.
Aunt Nelly and I took the plunge too, we just didn't do it as gracefully as some of the others!
Here's Jason, Granny Bev, and Tay bug. Jason's SUPER jealous that I live in Richfield and he doesn't, so that's probably what he was talking about right here!
Playin' at the Park:
Taylee wants that Popsicle SO badly!
My cute little family minus Heavy, Ry, Misty, & Cayson:
Anyway, it sure was fun to see everyone and enjoy the night together. Happy Birthday Granny!
ZOO TIME:
We also made a trip to the Zoo. Thanks Grandma & Grandpa! It was super hot and crowded, but it was still a lot of fun & Brielle keeps talking about all the cute animals.
Although I still think her favorite part was the little playground area.
For some reason, Brielle is obsessed with "monkey jars". She always has to attempt them at every playground.
Brielle and her cousin Cayson. Unfortunately I didn't get any pics of Ryan and Misty. Cayson sure is a cutie though.
The grandkids:
Today:
Playing in the neighbors pool.
Although I miss Trav a lot when he's gone, I've got to give him some credit for surprising me with a gift the other day. In addition to a sympathy card from the elk who's taking him away from me so much (it was seriously hilarious), he also went to the work of printing my blog so it's now officially my journal / photo album! I was so excited and it was very sweet because he didn't have to do any of that, he just wanted me to know how much he appreciates what I do while he's gone. Love you babe! Good luck!
PS: This is for you Bren:

This is so cute! I just remembered that your brother was down here at SUU, where is he living? I'd love to meet him sometime!
haha oh my goodness robyn! Okay so first of all, I would LOVE to paint for you! I honestly would! Just let me know :) and also... the funniest thing happened. So just a few days ago I received a text from somebody that said "Hey do you want to be SUU buddies?" Come to find out it's your brother! ha ha it was funny, I wasn't expecting that at all. So how did you get my number though!? Anyways, later that night I went to one of the events that SUU was holding, and I ended up meeting your brother because he was sitting like four seats away from me! It was crazy! So now we've met and we've seen each other around quite often haha. He's way funny & he's a cute kid, so everything I've heard about him is true ha!
You have the such a cute little family! Taylee is getting so big, and she looks just like her big sister. They are both adorable!
