Dress Up

I keep hearing Ashlynn tell Cruise to hold still. You could tell that he was not to happy with what she was doing so I thought I would go check on them to see what all the fuss was about. When I opened the door I saw Ashlynn trying to put her GO Go dress that my Grams got her for Christmas on him. He was already so decked out that he had had enough. What would a Big Sister do if she didn't have a little brother to dress up?

Uncle Jeremy

We were able to see my bother for a couple days over in Colorado. He was home on leave from Iraq and he came to Colorado to see my dad so we headed over there. Jeremy got a hotel room at the Sky Ute Casino, so everyone was able to go swimming and bowling. We all had so much fun, we can wait for him to come home for good.

Ashlynn's Christmas Recital

Our little Ashlynn had her first dance recital.. Everyone at San Juan School of Dance does such a great job. Its nice to see that my little girl likes something that is girly. I was thinking she was going to turn out like cha! She loves all the things that boys do, she even loves bugs. People around the neighborhood call her the bug girl..... lol I laughed so hard when I heard that was he nickname it so fits.

Our Little Ryker

We got to meet Little Ryker for the first time and boy was he happy to see Cruise. He would get so happy and just attack Cruise. Ryker is such a sweet little boy. We are so happy that Tanner and Maggie came to visit!

Toy Room

I love that Ashlynn has a little play partner. They made a huge mess but they were having the time of there lives.

Bath Time*

Ashlynn and Cruise have so much fun at bath time! I was sitting in the living room when I could hear Aaron and Ashlynn laughing really hard, so of course I had to take a peak. This is what I Found, my very own little Santa.

Let It Snow!!!

So here are a few pictures of the best snow storm ever! I love the Snow! Aaron hates when it snows but to me it is so peaceful and it reminds me of being a kid and getting all bundled up and sledding down the hill behind Emilee's house. Isn't it a Winter Wonderland!!

Here is my cool picture I took while flying to Staff Meetings. I really like to fly it is so cool to see places from a different angle.

Here is our little Cruizer thinking he is so big cause we are pushing him around on his little car. He was being so silly I just wish that the pictures would of turned out a little better. But you can kinda get the idea.

So we were getting ready for church and I could not resist taking a picture. They look so Christmasy and I am loving it. Aaron was so mad cause here it is November and I have them all dressed up for a Christmas party. lol MEN! they know nothing. lol My grandma also got Ashlynn the dress. She loves it so much every Sunday she wants to wear it, she calls it her santa dress. My little Cruizer is turning into quite the little man. He is so studly in his church clothes. I also had to take a picture of Ashlynn pouting, She looks just like Chelby used to.

This is one of the cutest little skirts I have seen in a long time. My grandma went up to Salt Lake and brought this surprise back for Ashlynn. She was so happy and could not wait for the next dance class too wear it. It is reversible so you can flip it over and it is purple with a pink bow. So Thank you Grandma you are the best and I love everything you do for me and my family!

Halloween

Well its sad to say but Halloween is Over! Aaron and I took the kids out Trick or Treating for awhile but Cruise was not loving it all that much. So I dropped Aaron and Cruise off and Ashlynn and I hit the town! We ran as fast as we could to all the house! By the time we were worn out Ash had to big bags of candy! I cant believe how much she had! But there are no complaint, we wont have to buy treats for church for a long time. lol

Our Little Cheerleader

Here is our little tomboy all dressed up. Aaron and I thought she might enjoy doing the mini cheer camp but boy were we wrong!!!! She kicked and screamed everytime it was time for her to go to practice! But of course she has a mom who wants a little girly girl, so I made her go! lol So we got to the game and she would not stay down with the little girls. So Chelby and I had to bribe her with kids Coffee (Hot Chocolate) and a sleep over at Chelbys. So she went out at half time and did very well! She is so cute and she made Aaron and I very proud!!! But I told Aaron that since he made Ash into a tom boy he better make me another Girl! lol lol

Witch Costume

Well as we all know it is time for the Costume fashion show! My little ash is so excited to be a witch! By the look Cruise gave me when I took his picture wearing Ashlynns witch hat he is not to pleased! lol Oh well what would our boys do if there moms weren't here to embarrass them. Karly and I went out to the yard sales an found Cruise a Lion Costume! I wanted him to be a pumpkin since he is overly plump! hee hee, But the cutest costume I could find was 70 dollars! NOT HAPPENING!!

School

Ashlynn Went To Lana Lathams Preschool Yesterday! It is really amazing how fast she is growing up! She does something new everyday that makes me feel like I am missing so much while working! I love my job but What about my kids?

Lost

Well Here we go on another post! We have had quite the busy last few weeks! A couple Sundays ago I let Ashlynn go play over at the apartments while we were waiting to head up to my grandmas house for dinner! The little girl that Ashlynn likes to go play with, her mother came over and was telling me that she has not seen them for awhile! we all started looking for them but after not finding them for about an hour I got really scared and went to Corey Workman's house to see if he could help me find Ash! He called out a amber alert and we gathered everyone we could to help find the two girls! About an hour later I just had a huge urge to go over to this man Georges house! HE lives over at the apartments! So I ran over there and knocked on the door! I could hear Ashlynn so I just walked in! There was Ashlynn and the little girl! I was so mad but SOOO grateful at the same time! It really makes you stop and realize how unsafe our town really is! There are two child molesters that live at the apartments. Those apartments are for families why are those sick people living in a family environment its like putting a kid in a candy store and saying don't touch! Eventually they DO!

The Shumways

Hey we have finally discovered the blogspot, lol. Aaron called me today and told me to get on here and create a account.
Anyways, Aaron and I have been married since June 2005. I cant say it has all been pretty, but we are happy now and have two beautiful children. Ashlynn is the oldest and she is such a handful. She wants to see everything and everyone. She is also a huge daddys girl. They love to watch scary movies together it is there bonding time. lol Next we have Cruise, he has just turned six months and is such a fatty. At first when I found out we were have a boy I was really upset. Now I feel bad I ever had such feelings. This little boy is the icing on the cake. He is so calm and has the cutest smile. We love this little boy so very much, he is such a great addition to our family.
Aaron works out on the oil rigs, currently he is working up in Kamas, Ut. So I get really lonely while he is gone, Thanks goodness for cell phones. I am working back down at Eagle Air Med as a Admin Asst. I really love being back down there but also miss my children.
