Owyhee!

Finally, her first trip to the Coyote Hilton on the Owyhee Lake!






First soak in the famous tub...her mommy and auntie and mommy's cousins spent lots of time in this little washtub!


She loved the plastic coasters!

Bibs and a onesie hanging to dry over the stove...been awhile since any of those have been up there!



She loved drinking water from the straw from Mommy and Daddy's cups!

Having a little swing with Mommy!

Rocking in the little red chair...this chair goes way back too!  All of us kids sat in it a time or two!

 Water time!


Mud time!

Our chariot to and from the water...it's way too far to walk since the water's so low this year!

Looks like a kiddo's been playing here :)

Birthday breakfast!

She loved looking at the wall of pictures!





Happy Birthday Daddy!

Naked baby on the loose!



Our watch dog!


Look at the amazing scenery behind that cute girl!  Spending time in God's country with our little family...can't be beat!

The first of many family pics on the deck!

Helping Daddy drive the tractor!

Tired, hot doggie... 

Tired, hot girls!  On the way home...


July!

Happy Fourth of July...our little firecracker!

 Playing in the mister with Papa...so much fun!

Riding the John Deere!

 She loved Mattie...and she kept "bowing" to Mattie to try to get her to lick her face, but Mattie doesn't lick!  It was comical to watch!


 Taking a ride on Nanny's walker...hang on!


 Another trip to the zoo...checking out the baby monkey and sitting on the tiger with her little friend Rowan!


Keeping her entertained while we do the dishes...she is fascinated by the suds!

Poor little face...war wounds from a board book and Bella's paw!

 Date to the zoo with Daddy!


The start of 14 months


The new garden beds that Brad built us!  Can't wait to plant a real garden in them next summer (it was too late in the year to plant much this year).




 14 month picture with Bella...getting to be nearly impossible to make her hold still and look at the camera long enough for a picture!


She got hand, foot, and mouth disease (not to be confused with hoof and mouth disease!)...a few days of miserable fevers and blisters on her hands and feet and in her mouth!  Not fun for baby or mama!


She loves helping me water the flowers outside!




 Cottage cheese face!!
