Update

Ok so sorry its been forever! I have no pictures becasue I lost my camera charger and so i cant use my dead camera. Sad! Well Cord and i went to Vegas a few weeks ago to attend the sealing of my brother and his wife. I almost didn't get to go because of course I forgot my recommend. How do you ask? I have no idea. But luckily I got ahold of the bishop and he called the temple to vouch for me. The weekend was fun though, cord and i hit up a casino, we had a BBQ, and hung out with the fam.
Avery is getting so big! She is 9 months now and is standing and walking along everything. She gets into everything now too! She makes a new sound too, can you guess what it is? Dadadadada! She doesnt know she is saying da-da but it sounds like it. =)
Cord and i FINALLY finished the cabinets, and our backyad has some semblence of a lawn. More weeds than lawn though. lol Cord takes his CNA test this week, I hope he passes so he can become a CNA. That would be nice.
Roniboob was down here this week. He came for a few days and we had a BBQ at Johnny's after swimming at a public pool. The guys did dives and crazy flips off the high dive, while Melina and I hung out with Raylin and Avery. It was fun! Then on Wednesday, Cord, Roni, Willis and I went to see The Dark Night! It was great! I liked it alot. After that my mom came in to meet me and we went shopping. We got Ave some toys and stuff it was nice! Ave likes her big girl toys too. =)
My mom stayed til Friday and then had to go back for megans shower. i wish I could have gone but sadly I had to work. Thanks for coming MOM!!!
Today was fun. I woke up and made cookies and cleaned then we went to church. Ave gets real loud in church so I spent most of it walking around, lol. But I have finally made some friends so it was cool.
Well thats my update. How is everyone else summer going?

Vegas

So as you saw below my little sister had her baby. He is soo adorable as babies are. I am so proud of her. I can tel she will be a great mom! We had a good time in Vegas. Cord was sick and then I got sick for about a day with some 24 hour stomache flu. Now we all have coughs (wierd to go with a stomache flu buyt there ya have it) but are feeling better. We got to visit with everyone and swim. Ave loves the water! Im glad for that since we do live in a desert lol. Well other than that we didnt do much. On our way out of town Cord and I ate with CC and Donald and I got a tray of waters dumped on me, but other than that it wasnt too crazy. How is everyone else?

Tyson Kai

My little sister Cecily had her little boy Tyson Kai yesterday!! He is 6 lbs 15 oz and 19.5 inches long. Is he just soo cute!

Our week in Eagar

So this past week Cord and I went to eagar to visit. The first night we all went camping at Brown sawmill. it was a little chilly but not too bad. We girls went on a walk, and then we all just hung out by the fire and talked. Velda made us hobo-dinners which we cooked very slowly in the fire, but it was worth the wait! Thanks Velda!

The next morning it was really windy so we got up at like 430 and packed up. Then we had breakfast at Velda and Steve's. It was Alex's birthday so we made a cake and then Brando grilled up some pork chops! Then Alex blew out her candles and opened her presents. She got some good stuff if I do say so myself. =) Then we all watched some Brian Reagan.

The next day we went over to see Mike and Ash and Cord helped the guys put in a new door at their grandmas. Then we went shooting! The guys were so funny with their pups running around after them. Then we went in to town and ate at Brando's. Soooo good!

That night Cord and I went and played some basketball with Mike, Ash, Trist, and Steve Tucker. We won some and lost some but it was a blast!

The next day it was time to leave but we snuck in a little early morning walk and then sunshine smoothies at Sonic with Mike and ash. Thank you to Mike, Ash, Velda, and Steve for a very fun week!!!

Welts (Is that how you spell it?)

Ok so here are the welts Cord got from Nate Nicholl. They look horrible! Nate an Cord were both already out when Nate shot him but its ok, Cord got some revenge...

Family Reunion

SO this weekend was the Allred family reunion. We had it here in Mesa and it was soo much fun! I don't think we got much sleep, it was kinda non-stop action. For us anyway. That first day we all woke up and went to meet at Jen and Nates to head out to the lake. We got out alittle later than planned but we did get out there. It was cold and rainy so the lake was empty but it didnt stop us from tubing!


Here is Cord and Mike getting ready to go out on the very cold lake! They are so funny together. I dont know why but when you see them together you cant help but laugh lol.



G-ma mary and Doug and Caroline came down too!






Take a look at those faces! Pure glee....










Ash and I went out together


Here we are getting ready. Nate is not very nice when he is driving the boat. I flew off everytime...Maybe i just stink at holding on....

On Sunday we all went to the temple for family pics and to see the Joseph Smith movie. It is a great film, and we were able to get some good pics.
Cord and Ave look so cute together dont they!?




Here is Emily and Ave! SHe was

having blast even though she had not taken a nap at all really.
Im glad she did so good.

On MOnday Morning a bunch of us went out to paintball again. The Trist was ready for some action. He won the night before when it was only him and I. I could barely see it was soo dark and I was checking to see if he was where I was getting ready to shoot and Wham! He shot me right in the facemask. Quick little bugger...

Mike was ready to get out there and hurt somebody. He got beat up pretty bad during the game. He got shot in the neck and it startd bleeding and fell over and twisted his ankle too, poor guy. Cord got shot many times too. Nate got him a couple times int he side. His welts are almost black, its nasty but worth it. After that game, Nate and Cord attacked Mike Ryan and Trist as they came back in. Lol it was a free for all and "some people" got hurt pretty bad...

Nate and Emily put off the drive home to paintball with us. EMily got it in the face. She looks soo sad lol. Im glad they stayed though! They ended up leaving after and then coming back again for breakfast, they just couldnt stay away. =)


After everyone left Nate, Jen, Cord, Weston and I all went 4-wheeling. We had soo much fun running through mud puddles and over rocks! Nate and Jen almost got stuck in a huge puddle lol. Thanks to Jenna, G-ma mary and Velda for babysitting even though it got a little nuts! You guys are great!

Here is Cord and I out in the sun four wheeling!

Well it was a fun reunion! I had a great time and so did Cord. Im glad to get some sleep again though but I cant wait for the next one. Thank you to everyone for the great food, fun and company! I hope to see you all soon!
