Ukiah


ok like i said in our last post. we went camping! it was a lot of fun but a bit cold. here are pictures


this is how we woke up our first morning:


this is where we stayed. our little fam strayed in the green tent. brrrr

tom and D on the four wheeler.



in the truck looking for Elk.


the morning before we left, tom's uncle had a flat and couldn't get the spare out. I thought this was pretty funny seeing all the men under the truck trying to see what they could do.

these pictures i just thought were too cute. Just hanging out in the warm trailer while it was quite cold outside.


grandma with the grandbabies that came. D was loving Ayla that day x 100. She was pinching her cheeks, giving kisses and bear hugs. it was too cute!





it was a really fun trip and im glad we got our tent! we're excited to go camping again this summer when its actually WARM!

Gone Camping


we went camping this memorial day weekend like the Roberts clan always does. We take the 5th wheel and the 4 wheeler and all the family and take the 5 hours to Ukiah Oregon (on the east side). Ive been 3 out of 4 times since being married to Tom. We weren't going to go this year thinking there were too many people to stay in the trailer and we didnt want to get a tent and stay in the freezing rain. But we decided why not. It was a really fun trip.. and yes. we stayed in a tent and it snowed on us the first night. I don't believe it got over 40 degrees at night but it was fun. We've never been in a tent before as a family and D loved it saying Ohh wow tent!

i took some pictures but of course the battery is dead but is charging right now. So i will post pictures hopefully tomorrow.

ps. We missed having Bonnie, Jason, Adam and Niccole with us!! wish you guys were here!

Family Pictures

yesterday we did family pictures since its the first time in 3 years we've all been together. Here are just the one of our family and the whole roberts fam.
(thanks to bonnie/betsy for taking them and editing them)and letting me steal them from you.



the only way we could get D to stay still was give her a dum dum... and the wind was insane as well. But luckily we got some good ones!

Mommy Dearest.

HAPPY Mothers DAY!



(this is a horrible picture... but it was the only one i could find of both of our moms. )

Just wanted to say Happy Mothers Day to all the mothers out there.

to my step-mom, Pam. She married my dad when i was 5. She didn't have any children but took all 4 of us kids in accepted us. I think it took me a good while to realize how hard that must've been. So this is a BIG thank you to her and all she has done for our family!

to my mother in law, mom, tom's mom - all of the above. - She is one of the most selfless, nicest people i have ever met! I was almost overwhelmed with how nice she was when i first met her. She welcomed be with open arms (ok, i think her and tom's dad wanted me to marry tom before we even started dating!) and let me be part of their family right away. Thank YOU!

and to both, I am so glad that Dulany has such great grandma's to look up to. You both are such great examples to me and my family. Love you both and hope you have a wonderful mothers day!

ps. this is what Dulany made for me in church. How cute?!
sorry its dark, but there is a picture of her face from like september in the flower and she looks so different already!

Beach Trip 2011

We took a trip to the oregon coast (to the beach) with the whole family. This is the first time in 3 years that we have all been together. We lucked out too. We got 3 straight days of Sun and about 50-60 degree weather! There was a pool/hot tub outside (that was warm), we went and had a bon fire and saw a gorgeous sunset (my first one) and even went whale watching (where we saw 1 whale). I guess i can now say i've been on a boat in the ocean (i didnt realize ive only been in bays and lakes on a boat) Anywho i got a TON of pictures. I already put them up on facebook but here is a slide show of the pictures.



here are just a few of my favorites though:
