Two New Nephews

Mom and Dad (Kiersten and Kreg Shelby)

proud Aunt and Uncle

Here's me holding Baby Tysen. He was so cute!!

Blair holding Tysen. Tysen got the hiccups while Blair was holding him.

Tysen Blaine was born on Sunday and weighed 8lbs. I'm not sure how long he was, but he's a good looking baby.
We weren't sure what he was going to look like, but he doesn't have red hair like his sister, his hair is more like Kreg's. We are really excited for them!!!

Jared and Becky had their second on Monday! Becky gave birth in like 2 hours, she's a freakin stud! They named their little guy Hunter Indiana Hanson. He was 7lbs 14oz and 20in long. we can't wait for pictures of him!!!

Bob the Builder and Skiing

so blair and I were at Lowes and saw these cool planter boxes. They wanted 40$ per box, so blair and I looked at eachother and he said "we can make that!" so we bought the wood and put our newly purchased router to the test. Blair did most of the work, I was more of a "construction" helper. blair stained the 2 boxes when he was done so I will take some pics of them with my tomato plants (once I get a tomato!!!)

Blair loves handy-man work, and he's pretty good at it!!!

Me and My Ski

you see that chop!? I got hosed on the water selection :)

this is my first ski this year, with my new ski that Blair got me for our anniversary.
the water was really cold (the water was 58 degrees), so I wore my shorty. the water is great now though! Blair's really excited that I'm enjoying something he loves to do.

The Fourth!!! I'm 22!!

the manly sport of rubberband-airplane flying

Man she's cute, both mom and baby!

Me, Sarah, and Becky....o yeah Becky's pregant :). She's due in a few weeks! Go baby Hunter!

Jared and Beck got me some mike and ikes for my birthday, so I was gladly sharing with the kids who thought they would look really good all over my white frosted cake

Blair was on sparkler duty and the kids were keeping him busy asking "can I have two uncle blair?"!

Nomi and her sparkler

you see that taffy in Eden's hand? Well, being the aunt I am, I fed it to her piece by piece. of course she's got to have some taffy, its the fourth of July parade!!! psst... don't tell Katie

Baby Eden enjoying the fire works. Apparently she wanted to sit alone

This is Veronica's newest addition, Benjamin, who Tavie kindly named "Bean". He really liked Blair. He would back into him to have Blair pick him up. it was pretty cute.

Aunt Donna rocks, of course, and got us all sorts of fun things to play with. Here is Evan and Jared trying to teach Britton how to use the rubber band airplane. I tagged Sarah with it 3 times ( I have great aim)

Tavie and Naomi with sparklers. We started early with the fireworks. We had a lot of sparklers to burn through!!!

This is Thank you in sign language from our cute niece, Eden


we hope everyone is having a great summer, I know we are.
not the best picture, but a fun one!!

Pre-anniversary and James

My best friend James came to visit for one day and stayed for three! She lives in Seattle right now, which isn't too far, but she might come and stay the summer here in Spokane which would be fabulous!!! We had such a good time together.

HO Siren Gloves

Our Anniversary (2yr) is on June 16th, but Blair couldn't hide my present from me, so he gave it to me early. He was so excited to give me the ski gloves and the Ski. he said "Its a great ski, and its girly, just for you" it was really cute. He is so excited for me to ski in the mornings with him. He's really good, and I'm just learning. I rode on Kariann's ski last year and just loved it. So now I'm a ski"er"!

Wakeboarding and Water Skiing on Memorial Day

The wake is HUGE! Here are some pictures of Blair and Kevin. We all went to Lake Roosevelt and froze in 58 degree water on memorial day. Although there are no pictures of me (because I was playing photographer), I did wakeboard and I did freeze my butt off. burrrr

Here's Blair's best friend Kevin (he and Blair toughed out the freezin water)

Here's Kevin Again

Here's some serious air

Here's Blair's first attempt at a tantrum this season. Good form, but didn't get enough pop!

3 Wheelin

Alec riding with Connie (Grandma meme)

Here's Alec, He loved to ride that little 70. RC kept helping him

get over the little hill behind him.

Blair, Chad, Aaron, and Alec made the back property of the cabin a race way and had a lot of fun. It was fun to watch them, but Blair almost hit the shed (that twist throttle will get cha!)

Chad and Kariann's Cabin

Alec rode around for hours, it was great. He was very independent, but really loved racing around with the "big guys"
get ready!

Kyndra- she took out the pepsi can!

Kariann's first shooting experience and she tore it apart with the 357

Blair helped her a little, but she did just great by herself!

Reese helping me out. He also helped find clays that didn't get shot! saved probably 15 of them.

Here I go, I was kickin trash until round 2, then Blair caught up and beat me
