Catching up!

Its been awhile since I last posted. Just a few things that I am going to share with everybody. This Friday is my last day at work, so I am excited to stay home with Tyler for awhile. I also have a test coming up, so I need to study for that. This last weekend we went back to Dan's parents place for a bridal shower and then later that day we headed to Huron to see my mom. We haven't been to Huron, since Christmas. My mom just got back from a cruise with a bunch of friends, so I wanted to hear about her trip and see her pictures. I was jealous that I didn't get to go and be in a sunny warm place.
Tyler is sure growing fast and I can't believe what he does some days. He is sure a character!

Last night I had to give Sammy (our dog) some medicine, so she didn't want anything do with me. She went to her next best friend, which I am amazed that she went to him because Tyler is so mean to her. Here are some pictures of them. I hope everybody has a great rest of the week and weekend!

Toddlers will be Toddlers!

I know it seems like forever since I last posted. Things have interesting around here. I think Tyler is entering the terrible two stage. This last week he has been so cranky and just the little things will throw him off and he will lay on the floor and start kicking and screaming. Throwing a tantrum. When he has his moments he will also find a corner and just stand there and cry. I did find him in things that he knows he shouldn't be into. I did take some pictures of him when he was caught in action and when he left his mess for his mommy to clean up.


Garbage Sacks Anyone?



Starting early.....toilet papering!!

Lately Tyler's favorite game is Peek-a-boo. When I got the camera out the other day he was playing peek-a-boo with me! Here are some pictures! Some of them may be blurry its because my camera and I don't get along.

Weekend Celebration!!

This last weekend on Saturday evening we headed to Dan's parents to go to a family function. Dan's grandparents had a party at a bar for there anniversary and Dan's brothers 21st birthday. Tyler had fun dancing to the band, he was busy dancing or running around he didn't want to sit down and eat. Then later that night I was a designated driver for Dan's brother and everybody else that went out for his birthday. It was pretty fun. Needless to say it was quite interesting. We didn't get much sleep that night!

Then Sunday we hung out at Dan's parents place. Tyler played and wanted to go see his cows! He is all about cows! He see's a window or a door he always points and says Cow's. We stayed for supper and then came home. I hope everybody enjoyed the warm weather this weekend! I hope everybody has a great week.

Blizzard-Fun in the Snow

This last week and weekend we were snowed in for the second time this year. This time the weather was so bad that it closed down the main interstates. My family and I were snowed in starting half of the day on Wednesday through Saturday. My husband was sick of being stuck in the house, so he thought he would be fun to go drive in the blizzard on Friday. We left in the afternoon to go to his friends where he has cows at. The drive usually only takes 20 minutes and it took us about 30-45 minutes. The snow drifts that we were going through were 3 feet high. The snow plows that they didn't have to come out until Saturday. Tyler had a great time watching and petting the baby calves. Then our friends asked us to stay for supper and Dan said it was up to me and I said I really wanted to get home before dark. Well, we stayed for supper and on our way home there were two people that were stuck in the middle of the road. The roads were awful from Dell Rapids to our place, which is Hwy 34. One guy helped the one person get out and then we helped another person get out because they were buried in the middle of the road. The funny thing was they were driving a car and thinking they were going to make it. Hehehehe :) remember 3 feet drifts. We finally made it home an hour later! Here is some pictures of the weather on Friday night and Saturday!

I know this picture is hard to see, but you can see the big snowflakes coming down.


Let it snow!








All the snow we got! We ended up getting between a foot and half to 2 feet.
On Saturday we took Tyler out to play in the snow for a little bit. He didn't know what to think. He didn't like it if he fell in it and he definitely didn't like it when he had snow on his glove. Lately when he gets his hands dirty or something is on them he goes and gets a towel or has Dan or me clean it off. We didn't have sled, but we made a home made sled. He liked it for a little bit, but that was it. Here are some pictures of Tyler playing in the snow!

What do I have on my hand? Gloves!!!
Help !!! I have fallen and I can't get up!

What is this stuff! Its snow!
Wee!!! Tyler didn't know what to think!

Get it off! What is on my glove?

On Sunday we went to church in Sioux Falls and then finally got some grocery's and ran some errands. We also went to the home show, which wasn't too bad. It seems like we seen the same thing last year. I think we will save our money and not go next year. We finally came home after making our usual trip to Wal-Mart. Hope everybody has a great week and is dug out! Hopefully most of the snow melts this week, but then we have to deal with mud and a big mess.

Icky Weather

Today, we are having some bad weather. I am not a fan of snow and really don't like it when it makes the roads bad. Dan and I both got off work at 1:00. We had to go to our favorite store or should we say our only store that we go to a lot, which is Wal-Mart! We spend lots of money there. Today, we needed to get milk for Tyler otherwise he would of been a crabby child. While we were there we picked up some other grocery's just in case we are snowed in. We finally got home around 2:30. The interstate was snow packed and icy according to my opinion, but if you ask my husband he would say it wasn't that bad. I have included some pictures of what it looks outside our place.

Snowed In Weekend!

This past weekend we were snowed in, which wasn't fun for me. I don't like to be snowed in. I like to go places or know that I can go somewhere if I wanted to. Dan was suppose to go to a cattle show in Brookings, but couldn't due to the weather. He wasn't a happy camper when he couldn't show. Dan's sister and grandma came for the show on Friday night, but were stuck here until Sunday morning when they were able to go home. All weekend we took naps and played games. I have been fighting some really bad headaches, so that is not fun. That is what we did this last weekend.


Just the other day I was getting ready to go take a shower. Tyler decided he needed to drag his football pillow in the bathroom so he could lay down. When he is sick I also put his pillow by the door way so he can lay down on it. If he wasn't in the same room as me or anybody he will freak out. I just thought it was cute that he thought he needed his pillow in bathroom. I took a picture of it. Lately he has been climbing on everything and not listening at all. I have notice that he is getting taller and is able to reach a lot more things, which I really don't like because I have nowhere to put things. Well, that is all I have for now. I just thought I would fill you in on some things. We live boring lives.
