Ok so I was looking in my documents again and came upon these poems by Jaylyn. Now I have to brag but my kids can write. They did not get that from their Mama! I really thought that at one time that Janica was going to write children books. She writes well. And Jaylyn does poems really well to. I just love to read what they write. So in one of these poems it says's how old she is 16 going om 17. I just love these poems and wanted to share a little about her. She is a beautiful person and she writes so well about herself.
What Do You See?
My life isn’t extraordinary and it’s not plain
My life changes like the seasons,
Which never run out of personality
At times I may rain, I may fail, and blow off hot steam, and even at times blossom to full color
I am unique though you may not see it
If you truly cared and knew me
You would know me and love me for whom I am
As if I were a sweet lemon growing up
Always trying to show the sweet and not the bitter
For we all don’t have one flavor
Life to me feels like a tumbleweed
Always chasing and catching up
It’s on going until my last breath of wind stops blowing
Until then you will be running to get to know me
Forever running
But if one day you catch up to me
And see through the hearts as I do
Only then you will know me
For a rose may be beautiful with her little pricks
She does no harm
For truly you surpass those thorns
And begin to see the rose of everyone’s soul
Life no matter what will be bittersweet
Its what you believe and see
Is exactly what you will perceive
The Partially Perfect Me
I live where it never rains
And sometimes that gets lame
And sometimes a glass of water doesn’t last
Could you guess I live in the southwest?
I am six-teen going on seven-teen
And far from being lean
I like to eat beans and tease
And smile all the while
Even though I have my moments of doubt
I would rather be optimistic
I enjoy going camping and boating with my family
Dancing, and spinning my saber
I enjoy all kinds of music except rap
I like to read and most of all, have my space
I live in a dangerous yet exciting world
That flashes and zooms before my eyes
And like me, ever evolving and changing
I am not perfect, as you can see
Yet striving to be
While the boys that make my eye lids flutter,
Into a wonderland of day dreams
The ones who lie can’t help but stutter!
As you can see
I am my own me
Who lives, loves, and laughs at life
Like any one human being
Just trying to get by
For I only have one life to live
And I am giving it my best shot

A Funny Letter From The Past
I came across this letter the other day that was in my documents. I seriously remember this letter. It was done back when Jory just came home from his mission. So that was May of 2006. And Jory knew this girl from California. A really nice girl I believe he met from EFY. So this is what boys do when they get home from a mission and they have his brother in law and his little brother and a mission companion they are up way way late like 1 am in the morning playing around and just getting reacquainted with each other. I think this letter is a hoot. I really don't know what she thought of it. But I wanted to share! And I did not edit the spelling at all. They boys never did so I left as is!!
hey jenn, just got back from swimming its like 1 in the morning. today was my, well yesterday was my homecoming talk. it was pretty awesome if you ask me. my mission buddy, lil bro., brother-in-law and me are just stayin up late talking and hangin out. I was just thinking about ya and wanted to give ya a little e-mailetje.
hey we're just gonna have some fun, so bare with us aight!!?
have you ever gone to the zoo with a spiked belt and tight red straps wandering around like a pregnant kangaroo carrying a big fat...never mind all that. down to business, your going to see me in the slap fest with a green thumb growing grass. what I was going to tell you was that there was this one time back when I ate the most rancid moldy sour cream that looked like it had been sitting in the cow pasterzation system that broke down a week ago. the moral of eating sour cream while sitting on the cow's hein end is you might want to retrace your birth certificate and find out if your nurse has polio disease that transferred to you. my sweet grandma has the funniest looking feet that rashed up when she walked thru that same sour cream and I cried that I would understand the true meaning of the cat and the dog that could end when he fights with his under wear tied to his legs. after that stupid incident I scratched my bum and then I smelled a bar which always smells like sandy pooh. have you ever had the same feeling of a sandy toilet on your bum? it always feels like paper rubbing on rough skin. in the last year I experienced the most horrifying accident in my sandbox. I found a piece of long hairy dog beef. itcame to me in my toes and felt just like some squishy cream that melts in the microwave oven at high temperatures. when I was going to my microwave, my nose could feel something very unique running down in the bottom part of my lip. you always start a fus over the enlarged substance in the bottom shelf which looks like a hot piece of squeege. aren't they going to the mall to find a long brown pair of shoes. the creature was in the bottom of my bed room closet when it attacked me at bed time. I frieked out of control but when I ran to my mom's house she snuggled next to me. if she could see me now I would prolly go running to the bottom of the stairs because I am not a fraid of my sister's pet when it runs to my toes I look like a girl that doesn't dress in drag. so if I could see you again it would go according to plan. lets jumnp out of my tree onto a pig under the sewage pipes...oh I forgopt to mention I love to pick up berries with mexicans. about the same time that uncle rico threw crumbs at my kruis. after I took my bicycle chain back to the vending machine, gum got stuck on to my shoe. help me rescue my poor frog that also has a rashed foot from moldy sour cream. what the frik are you going to do when I pee in my carpeted lavender bedroom? try to stop me because I now am really under estamating the size of my diarea puddle problem imagine if you swam in the puddle. take off your socks that smell like long b s. if you could take me home right after we make cookies, could you also plant some weeds. take with cherrries covered with rice particles that have many sorts of colors that shin like a rainbow. but all I can say is don't ever date a dirty mexican like jory but if you want no other burritos just make me a happy man sorry I totally should have said cat there. what more can I say it is a ride that never ends, but don't ever stop taking pills because who would notice you ever again. thanks for being unnoticed, buthhhh sorry I am totally retarded. finally I am making nonsense from 3 amigos that eat ice cream from pasterized sour milk. really I don't think you look at other midjets talking what!!! we micky and mouse club on the crack shack vanilla elephant trip. hopefully my dad will give us the permission to see rated Geeeee films. that’s the end of the story!
wow, ok that was from the boys, we played a game to make a story for you saying one word at a time one by one. each of us took turns and that’s what it turned out to be. I really hope it’s a little funny to you, cuz it hilarious to us. we got into that stage of tiredness where we were rolling around on the floor laughing at the stupidest things. read it noe word at a time and see how it all came together.

January Javelina Month
After Christmas and New Years bring on the hunt for the pig they call Javelina. Dave and the boys get soo excited to get their bows and and go to the desert and hunt those ugly critters (that's my opinion) down. Dave asked me if I wanted to go. NO......lol!! I'm not to keen about camping in the desert anyways and I don't really like being in a tent out in the desert to. So Dave was a lucky hunter and got his Javelina this year. The boys are still going out hunting on the weekends till they can find one. Dave is going to eat the meat he had his butcher put it into sausage. Yuck!!! I won't eat it!
Now in the midst of hunting Jaren came across a Fox! He really has never seen one and he pulled out his bow and got it. I was sad for the fox. But that little boy was happy. Its a skill I suppose if you can kill it with a bow. They are very fast so it was a lucky shot that he got it.

Easton~
Aww this new little one is a sweetie! He still sleeps a lot so when I get to see his eyes....its wonderful!! It's so fun to kiss and smooch those cute little cheeks and I love his little nose to! He looks a lot like Jory at the moment but time will change. He is a joy to have in our family!
Uncle Phil
One day I was running errands with Breken and just stopped by work to see David. Well Jaren just said Ohhh I was needing to see this little guy. He was soo happy to see the "B" So we took some pictures with them together. Jaren will make a good daddy one day!!
Breken And A Haircut!
Ha Breken was waiting for me to get ready so he was watching Mickey Mouse Club House show and he just decided he was getting tired. We were planning on going to see Uncle Jory and Easton before we got his haircut. This happened about 11:30 he was falling asleep. I called Jaylyn and she said just let him sleep. I laughed and said noooo!! Its to early for a nap. So I woke him up, he slept about 20 minutes, got his shoes on him and he woke up in a good mood, visted with Uncle Jory, Easton was sleeping....went to McDonald's had lunch and then got our hair cut. He does not like to get his haircut. That's why I was taking him. Jaylyn has a hard time with him crying and putting up a big fit. I on the other hand does not bother me, I had 2 boys Jory, Jaren and they threw fits just like Breken does so I said I can do it. Breken is one strong little boy!! At the end of his haircut I got my phone out and let him watch videos of himself. That worked wonders so the lady got a really good cut on him. He looks sooo cute when he gets his haircut!! And when it was all done he got down and forgot the whole thing till next time!!
This is him after his haircut he loves to play in the jeep!
What a handsome dude he is!

Christmas Eve, New Years Eve
Well this year for Christmas we had the best present ever. Easton being born. So we had Christmas Eve at Jory and Brittney home. Cam and Janica were in Utah this year with his family so Jay and Jacob and Breken and Jaren went to Jory's. We had fun. We did opened our Christmas Eve presents which were pajamas and we decided to let the kids open their gifts together since Jaylyn and Jacob was spending Christmas with his family in Coolidge.
Uncle Phil and Easton
Dave and I got the boys a toy. Really he got it for Breken. REALLY??? The age group was for 3 and up, so really that is for the boys ages 20 and up!! Nerf gun.....Breken can't even shoot it!!
Then we went out side and did our traditional reading of Twas The Night Before Christmas by fire drinking hot chocolate and roasting marshmallow's
Dave is wearing his hat from Jory and Brittney. Fits him well!!
Breken really enjoyed the night of playing and having fun with our Christmas traditions
Then we headed back home to our house to let Breken open up his presents from us cause we would not see him on Christmas Day. Dave and I was sooo excited to give him his present
I think this was Christmas Eve Jaren all tuckered out from playing
It's Christmas Day now, It was only Jaren, Dave and I. Small group for Christmas morning. But all good. So Dave ended up putting Breken's present together.
Ya Jaren it don't fit you!! But Christmas Day was quite. We went to Jory's house to visit then we came home and was planning on doing our traditional movie before 6 pm and Jaren wanted his dad to help him with his car to put his big woofer speakers in his car because he found out that it was all wired for it. So they started to work on it and it took like 3 hrs. So we went to the 10 pm showing and saw War Horse! Excellent movie. I told Jaren that I was thankful that he was not a high maintenance boy because I did not make our Christmas dinner that day. I promised I would make it the next day and I did!! We just had a very relaxing day just enjoying being with one another.
Now Janica and Cam came into town for the New Years weekend and to see Mr. Easton to.
We went to Jory's and Britt's home to take some family pictures to please mom. Its not to often when we are all together so I have to take memory moment pictures. Easton is new to our family so I have to take them.....
Ok so after all the picture taking and having fun with that, we went to Barrows pizza to celebrate New Years Eve. Breken had fun. Pizza and wings! YUMMMM!
This was so fun, our neighbors had fireworks and it was so fun to see them outside lighting up the sky. I was so surprised that it did not wake up Breken. They were so fabulous!! I talked to our neighbor at church the next day and she said they got the fireworks from Utah. I said Really?? They seemed so more professional like from Mexico or something. Great firework show for the neighborhood!
So bring on the drinks (sparkling cider!) and lets bring the New Year in!! We had Jaren's Missionary friend Josh Redmon, which we call him Red and he just got married to Tiffany which we call her Ms Red, they were with us.
WOW Dave that sparkling drink really effects you! Hahaha
