A Much Needed Update!!

The Osborne Family

has been very busy these last few months. We never seem to loose momentum in life. Being an active and outdoor family keeps us all happy and smiling! The pictures below are just a few of the adventures we have been on lately!! Enjoy

Box Canyon

My little man.....he makes me smile

Daddy and the kids looking at a Big Horn Sheep! (seriously)

My Handsome Hubby!!

Boys, Guns and Animals....need I say more? (Rob, Chris and Bryan)


Bryan and his Jeep climbin away



Chris' Jeep. There is NO stoppin this one!


The sign says Do Not Enter for a reason. Do you think we entered?? Of course we did....all 8 of us. The pack of skunks let us know inside that we should not have went in!

Bryan going down

Totally normal for our group...dont worry!!

Cinders Trip


Chloe kept us all entertained all weekend. She always does!

Makenna and Dad watchin the cinder drags

Kim and Chloe playing in the Cinders

My sweet sweet children!!!

This pic is my favorite!!

All 6 of the kids had a blast on this tree that had fallen over.

So we got stuck....big deal, right?? It only took an hour and 800 different ideas coming from 11 different people to get us out without rolling down the hill.

Our friends that we go on all these trips with are some of the most genuine people we have ever known. It would not be the same experiences without them. Thanks Chris, Bryan, Kim, Mario, Jessica and all the kiddos!!!!

Our trip to San Diego

was way to short. We got there Thursday afternoon and left Sunday morning. I am lucky enough to have parents that have a beach house right on the beach. (hence the "beach" in beach house)

We were joined by my mom, my brother, his wife and their little angel, Rynn.

Enjoy the pictures below...(in absolutly no order)

Chloe climbing a palm tree. She did not reach the top....she must have a fear of heights like me :)

Kelby attempting the climb
Makenna and Kelby on a free-fall ride (the little boy on the left is not part of our group...??)

What would a trip to San Diego be without going to eat at Luigi's??

Makenna admiring the dolphins

The only family shot I got

Waiting for Shamu!!

Poor Chloe is stuck and can't move...Rynn loved it!

My brother and Rynn

Trust me...the smile is all fake. She was terrified that she couldn't move

Chloe could hardly pretend to smile...she was soooo scared

Makenna and Kelby building masterpieces

Thats most of the pictures! The sun did not come out the entire time we were there.

There is a reason

for my lack of posts here on my blog....I have made the switch to facebook! (and love it) If you have not yet started a facebook, you should. Really.

Funny Remark

To make an extremley long story short.....

Makenna's thumb has been really swollen, green, pussy (i know, gross) and a line started going up her arm. When I took her to the doctor, he said she had paronychia (do not google that word, you will be discusted). He gave her a shot right in it, cut it open, and drained it. He said to keep it wrapped up when she went to school until it started looking better.

After a week or so of wrapping, I decided to send her to school with no wrap. Halfway throught the day, she went to the nurses office and asked to get it wrapped because it was bothering her. "No." the nurse said..."Go back to class." As a mother you can imagine how mad I was that the nurse just blew her off, this is the conversation I had with Makenna when she got home...

Me: "There are two nurses, which one was it? '

Makenna: "I don't know, the one with braces."

Me: "I didn't know either one of them had braces, was she kind of heavy?"

Makenna: "I don't know, I have never carried her."

LOL. If you know Makenna, you know that she is extremley wise and logical, so to hear something so funny come out of her mouth is suprising!!!!

Update to come....eventually!

I promise I will update soon....been busy with the holidays, moving, being sick, PTO....so on and so forth.

December in AZ

Yes, Chloe is in shorts! I am beginning to think it will never get cold cold during the day. It may cool off at night, but it just doesnt feel like December. I guess this is what I get for living in the Valley of the Sun Aka...HELL!!!
