Our trip to St. George
We went to St. George over the Christmas Break. My brother and Mikes brother both had sons getting baptized and my sister Misti was blessing her baby Julia so what better reason to head south. We left New Years day. We stayed in Cedar City the first night with Mike's brother Randy, and the next day we headed to St. George. That night, we had a mean game of volleyball at Pine View Jr. High. It was the old ladies (plus my brother Jeff who filled in for Misti when she left) against the young girls and Tayson and his friend. Of course you know who kicked some fanny.... That's right the old man and women. Even Jeff displayed his jump serve if you can call jumping an inch off the ground a jump serve. j/k There were many classic moments that will be forever burned in my brain. The best was Cheri taking it off the neck. I don't know how long it stayed red. But it made me fall to the ground laughing. The next day was the baptism. Mike went to Cedar and I stayed in St. George for my nephews baptism. After the baptism, we went back to my parents house and ate dinner. (even though they aren't there.) That is when the action began. Jeff became a bull and the young boys were all over that. The bull finally had to rest after Tanner though.But he was able to gain his strength again to take care of "milk shake" She rode him well.That night, I was also constantly bugged by my nephew Tayson. He kept pushing and knocking my head while I was drinking. I told him he should stop but he didn't listen. The next day we went to Misti's church for Julia's baby blessing. (She's getting so chubby) We ate dinner and again Tayson was a pain. I even heard Tiffani telling Tayson that he was going to pay because he was messing with her. So the girls got together and came up with a plan to shut that boy up. Tiffani grabbed him from behind, Kandice grabbed his arms, Misti his legs and me I had the duc tape. I never realized how strong that boy was. I was finally able to free my legs from his legs and I began taping his legs then I went to his arms. I should have done that better. Then to really shut him up, I taped his mouth. Then we tried to carry him to his truck. That wasn't working so we dropped him on the floor.Hopefully he won't mess with his aunts again. Wishful thinking. After that I was a little nervous to be around him. We soon left to go back home. It sure is a long trip to make, but it is so much fun to be around family even if they all are sick.

Sweet video footage of the bull ride. Tanner will be so excited to watch it. Lucky for you that you don't live around here, I fear for my safety next time I see Tayson.
I am sure glad that you came to visit. It was fun to be around the almost whole family. Thanks for the laughs and stop being such a bawl baby, your mommy will be home soon!
I am glad you had a good christmas, I really wanted to get in touch with you before and go have lunch (for your very late birthday), but life is crazy. I enjoy your comments on my blog. I will get with you soon, I promise. Love Ya. Tammy
Ahhh. Fun Times! You and Tiff need to learn how to spell Tason's name. Did anyone video Porter riding that bull. I really want that! It may just have to be a memory in my head instead of something on tape. Thanks for making the trek down to hang with us for a while!
