We had a great Halloween! We carved pumpkins and made candy apples with the Collettes, went trunk or treating at our ward party and went Trick or Treating with the Clarks. We dressed up for our ward Trunk or Treat, Bailey was the Tooth Fairy, David was tooth paste, I was a tooth brush and Steven was Dental Floss.

BaiLeY bABy
I thought it was about time to give a run-down on Bailey, so here we go.
- She just turned 14 months old yesterday.
- She has 10 teeth and 2 more on the way.
- She starting walking 2 months ago, about a week after her birthday.
- She can sign: please, more, all done, thank you.
- She calls David "ga ga" for "da da".
- She calls me "ma ma" but, only when she is crying.
- She loves books. She brings them to us so we can read them to her.
- She loves her necklaces, she takes them on and off and caries them around all day.
- She throws her diapers away, and now all her toys.
- She loves to dig in the garbage (David said she gets that from her aunts ;).
- She has started to climb on everything.
- She likes to sit on things that are just her size.
- She likes to squeeze into small places.
- She likes to pull all of my shoes out, put them on and try to walk.
- She loves to cuddle.
I did a little photo shoot after church today.

We are in!
We got a call Monday afternoon from UT San Antonio, they offered David one of the three spots avalible in their Endodontic program. We are so excited! This means that we will be staying here in San Antonio amongst our friends for two more years. All of David's hard work is paying off!

Florida
David has been flying all over the country these past two weeks interviewing at schools for an endodontic residency. I was the lucky girl that got to meet up with him in Florida over the weekend. I dropped Bailey off at David's parents house. It was the fist time I have ever left her over night. It was a great vacation! We flew in Thursday night, Friday David had his interviews so I explored a little on my own then ended up getting my hair highlighted on a whim. Saturday we drove to Clearwater Beach on the gulf side. It was really pretty. It was stormy all day long so we ended up driving across the state to St. Augstine, the oldest city in the US. It was really cute, it reminded me of Fredricksburg. The next morning we checked out the Jacksonville beach before we had to head to the airport.
Jacksonville Beach
This poor bird had string caught around his leg.

We had to go see what people were catching off the piers. One guy caught this little shark so David wanted to hold it, weird I know.

Hip Hip Hooray, It's Bailey's 1st Birthday!
As hard as it is to believe Bailey turned one this week! We did a lot of celebrating. First we went down to the coast over the weekend for a little sun and sand. Then we had a Birthday party with some friends. The next day Bailey and I went to the zoo with Grandma and Grandpa Martin and Sherri and Leann. We had a great time.
Bailey's Cake
I made the top two layers chocolate and the bottom one was a yellow cake. Then I frosted them with homemade butter cream frosting then decorated with homemade fondant. It took all day but it sure was fun!
Waiting for the party...

Utah
We had a great summer vacation. We took three weeks and went to Utah. We split our time up between my sisters houses in Provo, my parents house in Emery County and a couple days in Wyoming. It was so fun to see a lot of my family and David's sisters and our friends. The time flew by. David said I'm no longer allowed to visit Utah in the summer because then I don't want to leave. We took a lot of pictures and they are not in order but at least I'm posting them. :)

Adventure
Bailey loves riding in her backpack. She scratches Davids neck for him and tugs on his hair for entertainment. We took her to Ceiblo Creek. It was very pretty. We got in the river and fished and when we got out I looked down at my feet and thought I had leaves on them but they were LEACHES! There had to be over 5o all over my feet and up my legs. I was wearing crocks and they got inside too. David had to pull them off and then I got the rest out of my shoes with a stick. It was horrible! Needless to say I didn't get back in.

Lake Travis at it's BEST!!!
This was the first and the biggest one. Lindsey named him Norman because he is fat. I should have weighed him. I guess 15lbs, he was 30 inches.
We caught 6 big cats, 4 over 27 inches.
Everyone caught whites. We kept 49!
Took us till 4am to clean them all.

Girls Just Want to Have Fun!
Another school year is coming to an end and that means a lot of our friends are going to be moving away. It's sad for us, and we are going miss all those that are leaving. At least it gave us an excuse to get together for a party!

Cute Cousins
Jenny and Ryleigh came to visit from Utah. Bailey and I were able to go up to Austin and play with them for a couple of days. It was so fun to get the little girls together. They love the Blue Bonnets, that is they loved to eat them!
Bailey started choking and then threw up a 2 inch Blue Bonnet stem.

Delaina Came to Texas!
We attempted boggie boarding, sometimes we got lucky.
What is that thing?
The Collettes came down with us, we stayed in a hotel Friday night and played on the beach the next day.
Caught red handed!
Bailey loved the sand. I couldn't even get her to look up for a picture!
I don't know what kind of tree this is, but I love it!!
Thursday Delaina and I went and got makeovers at La Cantera then we went shopping in San Marcos while David shadowed and endodontist. We ate at one of our favorite BBQ places, Coopers. After we all went to the cute little town of Gruene. It's almost like a smaller version of Fredricksburg.

Fredricksburg
Last weekend we decided it would be fun to go to Fredricksburg. If you have never been there before, you definitely should check it out some time. David's Parents met up with us there and we did a little shopping in the adorable little shops and had lunch. Rachael Orem had told me of a farm out is just outside of Fredricksburg, where you can go and pick fresh fruits and veggies. We went and picked strawberries. It was so fun! Then we went on a little tour of an old school house. It was a great weekend!

4th year wedding anniversary
Our Anniversary is December 28th, and as a consequence every year it gets kind of pushed back because of all the Holiday hustle and bustle. So once we got home from Christmas vacation, David took me out to one of our favorite restaurants for some sushi and other delicious Japanese food.

Baby Bliss
I always loved playing house when I was younger. Now I get to play the real thing every day! It's so fun, I love being able to stay home and play with my own new, little, doll. One of my favorite things to do is dress her up and take her picture, she is just so cute!
Bailey lays on my lap while I do my make up in the morning. One day I just couldn't resit seeing what she would look like with a little mascara on her long lashes!

I've been wanting to post these pictures for along time now.
David's sister Leann came from Utah and we all went for pizza in celebration of her birthday. I had Bailey the next day!


Of corse we had to go to Bass Pro Shop. Travis wanted to buy one of these chairs so he could dress up in his camo and sleep on the chair with out his kids knowing where he was.
This is my last profile belly shot.

Bullet!
Last weekend David's family came to visit. His sister Jennie was sleeping in the living room with her husband Nathan and new baby Ryleigh. Around 5:00 am we all heard a really loud noise that woke us up. David went out side to see what was going on and our neighbor was out there drunk as can be. He shook David's hand and was saying something over and over that David couldn't understand. Not long after David came inside we heard someone just start shooting. We grabbed the babies and ran into our room and huddled on the floor. David called 911 and we waited for them to come. Nathan went out into the living room and found a big bullet hole through our wall! Come to find out it was our neighbor that had shot the gun through his door. The first noise that woke us up was the first shot. Then he fired 6 others out into the parking lot. We found the bullet in between where the air mattress that Jennie and Nathan were on and the couch, about a yard away from where their baby was sleeping. The cops confiscated around 15 other guns they found in his apartment. The guy who shot said someone was trying to break into his apartment and he told them he would shoot if they didn't leave. Who knows if he was telling the truth or not, needless to say the guy and his girl friend were evicted from the complex.

Baby Blessings
Last Sunday we had a combined baby blessing for Bailey and her new little cousin Ryleigh, who was born Sept. 11th. It was really nice. We did it at David's parents house and had a couple of family friends come. My parents had come down for the week so both sets of grand parents were there. Sister Morris made Bailey's dress, it turned out really pretty.

I'm finally getting around to posting some of the many pictures that we have been taking lately. Bailey is so fun and cute. I love watching David get sucked in by her charm.
It's a good thing I couldn't feel any of these, I love epidurals!
Bailey had jaundice so she had to be under these blue light for 24hrs. She got to wear some cool shades!

Watch out!
It's about time for me to catch up with the blogging world. I can't believe that David's summer vacation is already over! We have been able to do a lot of fun things though. Most of which consisted of fishing poles and guns.
Friday night we went up to David's parents house after fishing Travis. Saturday we went and shot some scary assault rifles! It was pretty fun though. Sunday we went to church with Jennie and Puj and then went and watched David's friend Joseph baptise his little girl Angle. And I believed them when they said it didn't kick!

Pig Hunt!
Over the forth of July, David, Puj, Emory (David's Dad), Brian and I all went down to Brian's Ranch. We had a great time. David shot his first pig with his new gun! He cleaned and skinned it and we have had some great pork dinners. It tastes awesome! We also did some arrow head hunting and found some nice pieces and scrapers. All in all it was a very successful trip!

My BIG (6'6")brother Mervin got married on June 7th to Aron. David and I were able to fly up to Utah for the wedding. It was a quick trip, but we had a great time.

South Padre Party!
Wow! David is completely done with his second year of dental school! He did awesome this year and still has a 4.0! He has worked so hard and has done a great job. So, to celebrate we went down to South Padre with his sister and her husband (Jennie and Nathan). None of us have ever been there so we thought it would be a fun adventure. We got there Thursday night and stayed until Saturday. We had a great time. However, we were disappointed in the lack of fishing options. They only had one pier/jetty on the whole island and it closed at 11pm. That might not sound so bad, but when your a dedicated fisherman who likes to stay up all night fishing, it's almost enough to spoil the trip. We even thought about leaving early and driving up to Corpus Christi. Friday we went shopping and then went and played on the beach. It was overcast and we all got super sun burned. Saturday we left early and drove to Choke Canyon and fished and saw a lot of scary alligators!

Lake Travis
The past two weekends in row we went up to our favorite fishing spot on Lake Travis. We took Linsey, Brandon and Steven with us the fist trip. We all stayed the night at David's sister's house. We went to Ikea the next morning and made it back in time for me to go to work.
The next weekend we met Clinton, Brittany, Cliff and John there. We caught a lot of fish. It was kind of scary because there was a tornado warning for the surrounding area and it started raining and lightening so much that David made me run in the rain and go sit in the car so I wouldn't get electrocuted. Even though I missed about an hour of fishing before the rain let up I still caught just as many fish as the boys!

We Found Out!
We went in for another ultra sound last Thursday and we are having a baby GIRL! Wow that was a surprise! I totally expected it to be a boy, however, I told David I was secretly hoping it was a girl. He is also excited for a girl now. It was so fun to see how much she has grown. We got it all recorded on DVD. How fun! Let the shopping begin!

Twilight
I've been swept away by the Twilight tide! After hearing so much about these books I decided I was not going to miss out any longer and see for my self if they were as good as everyone has talked them up to be. Needless to say I've been missing from the blogging world and every thing else for the last week and a half. I finished the fist two book in 6 days and I'm now half way through the 3rd. David has hid them from me multiple time now! I think it is great pay back for all the Halo nights. I'm getting sad that I'm almost done but I'm also a little grateful because I will be able to get something done with out wishing I was lost in the world of vampires!

Black's Ranch
Last week was David's spring break. I was able to get a couple days off of work so David, Steven, Brian and I all went down to Brian's ranch. We left Sunday night and stayed until Tuesday night. I even hunted all by myself, in my own blind. I didn't shoot a turkey like I wanted but I did get a rabbit, and then I felt bad. David shot a pig but it got back up and ran away. We all fished and caught around 50 or more little Sun fish and Large Mouth Bass, but we threw them all back. David found 4 arrow heads and we both each found a scraper. We had a great time. Next time I'll get a turkey!

Bastrop
David's Dad went on a scout camp out in Bastrop last Friday. We thought it would be fun to surprise him and already be at his sight when they arrived. Little did we know it involved their whole Stake and no girls were allowed. So I did my best to look like a twelve year old boy by wearing my hood and not talking. Luckily it was dark so we didn't get caught. We ended up camping at a different park near by and then went back in the morning to eat breakfast with them. It was so pretty up there. All the wild flowers were blooming and It was so green. They even had pine trees! It was almost like we were in the mountains again. We took a lot of pictures and of course fished. It was just so nice to be out side and smell the fresh air. I Love camping!

The Phantom of the Opera
Thursday David and I were able to go with some of our friends to the Phantom of the Opera! It was awesome! I've been wanting to see it ever since I can remember. When the movie came out we had to buy it and the sound track. So when I heard the play was coming to San Antonio I was so excited! We all went out to dinner at the Huston Street Bistro (which was very fancy) and got done just in time for the play. Steven was the one who got the whole thing together and it turned out great. Dinner before the show.

Exciting News!
We are PREGNANT! I'm 3 months along and my due date is Sept. 3rd. We are very excited! I went to the doctor for the fist time on Monday and they did an ultra sound. I was surprised to see that it already looks like a baby. We could see its heart beat and the brain, it was really neat. Hopefully we will be able to tell if it's a boy or a girl at my next appointment in 4 weeks. David is already convinced that it is a boy. I haven't really had any morning sickness, which I'm told is a blessing. I get a little queasy at night sometimes but other than that I've been doing great! Here are some pictures of the ultra sound.This is a profile shot of the baby. Its head is on the right and its legs on the left. Wow!
This is the baby looking at the camera strait on. You can see its eyes and nose. I think this one is a little scary looking though :)

Canyon Lake
David finally had a free weekend and I only had to work until 1:00 on Saturday so we took advantage of the great weather we've been having and went camping at Canyon Lake. We had a great time. We loaded Dave's canoe on top of his truck and spent the rest of day light out on the lake. We only caught one fish, a big large mouth, but it was so nice to be out side! When we got back to camp I set the tent up in the dark while David made us a fire so we could tried out our new cowboy cooker the Steven made for us. It worked great we made pineapple pork chops with Onions, peppers and mushrooms, it was so delicious! After dinner we watched part of a movie in the tent until the computer batteries died but that was ok because we had to wake up at 6:00 to be home and ready for church at 9:00.

David had Monday off in celebration of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. He put a lot of good hours in of studying at the library and then came home early! He took me to Bracken Ridge Park. It was so pretty! We fished for a little bit and then walked around and took some fun pictures. There was hardly anyone else there. It was really foggy but not cold. After we met up with Jamiee and Brian at PF Changs for some yummy dinner.

3rd Year Wedding Anniversary
David and I decided to celebrate our anniversary a little early instead of waiting until the 28th of December when there is allot of family around other things going on. Thursday we drove out to Llano and ate at Coopers (The best bbq ever!). Then we fished alittle in the Llano River and then we drove out to Fredricksburg. We looked through all the cute little shops and stay at an adorable bed and breakfast. It was so nice to get away and not have to worry about anything!

Finals Finished, Fishing Trip!
After two weeks of finals, it was finally time to fish. Clinton, Quinton, Paul, Brandon, Nathan, Jennie, David and I all went to the coast Thursday night. We got down there around 1:00am and fished off Copano Bay Bridge until 6:00am! The boys were going to go bay fishing on a boat at 8:00, but the boat wasn't running so we all went to the jetties to fish. There was an old man there that was reeling in big sheeps head one after another. He gave us some pointers and some of his ghost shrimp for bait. It wasn't till after his help that we started to catch them. We caught all different kinds of fish: speckled sea trout, hard head catfish, sculpin, stingray, black drum, sheeps head, flounder, blue crab, sand trout, pompano, whiting, piggy perch, croaker, and a couple unidentified fish. Clinton even managed to catch a muscle, although we can't figure out just how. Quinton, Clinton, Brandon and Paul went home after that and the rest of us stayed and went out to lunch at the Big Fisherman with David's Aunt and then we drove home. We had a great Trip! 

















Jennie told Brandon to see if he could feed the pelican by hand.... that probably wasn't the smartest idea!

Doing what we do best!
Last weekend we were able to go fish Lake Travis, which we haven't had the chance to do in a long time. It was a lot of fun. Steven came and brought the Wildung kids and we met Clinton, Quinton and Jill there. It was a pretty successful trip and our freezer in now restocked with fish.
Bradley Wildung outfished all his sisters and even David 3 to 1!

Steven, Kiyomi, David and I went to a monster truck rally on Friday. They had a little bit of free style motorcycles, some four wheeler races and some really big, loud, scary, monster trucks! It was allot of fun. The best part was we all got in for $2.50 compared to the regular $20 a ticket due to the charm of Kiyomi and Steven.

David was really excited!

Willie Nelson graced us with his presence last Thursday night at the Floore Country Store in Helotes. Steven was able to secure David and I the last of the limited number of tickets. There were 2500 Willie fans that showed up. It was quite the party!
This store is where Willie use to play when he first began.

We were all decked out in our "cowboy getup", boots and all.
We had some great seats right in front of the outhouses!
What a handsome cowboy!

After a long wait Willie finally came on stage.

He is really good on the guitar!

This is a painting on the back of his bus.

And the winner is...
The results are in and short and dark are the winners! However I do believe there was a little bit of bribery that went on. Sneaky David started paying people off to vote for the short and dark, but I guess if it really means that much to him then I should do it. It took me two hair cuts to get brave enough to go this short but I'm glad I did. I put some low lights through the top and around my hair line but I'm going to go even darker.

Dark or Light? Which Length is Right?
I'm getting really tired of my hair and I'm not sure what I want to do with it. I've been wanting to grow it out but then I see a lot of cute short cuts and it makes me want to cut mine. Then comes the question of which color. I want to stick with blondes and browns. (Red is not for me). Right now I am at an awkward stage with both color and length, so I thought 'why not get some more opinions'. I'm going to run a poll. You can vote for: long or short, and blonde or brown. I have some pictures to help you decide.

TGF Hair Salon
I got my first job as a hair stylist! I'm working at TGF Haircutters. It's a Regis full service salon. It's located up Bandera Road on the out side of 1604 right next to the new Golds Gym. I've been working there for a little over three weeks. I really enjoy it for the most part. It's a lot of fun to meet all different kinds of people. I'm learning a lot of new techniques and trying to get my speed up. We are usually busy, which is a big change from hair school. It can get kind of stressful at times but it makes the time go by a lot faster when we are busy. I'm working full time. I get Sundays off and one other random day throughout the week. My boss is pretty nice. When I went to interview I took my portfolio and resume with me, she looked through them and hired me on the spot! I get paid 40% commission on all services 10% on retail plus tips. Men's cut are $13.95 and $10.00 on Tuesdays, Women's are $15.95 and kids are $9.95. It's fun to finally be paid! So if anyone is tired of their hair and wants a change just let me know. I'm still doing services from home for cheap, so if you want to come over just let me know.

A couple of weeks ago we went down to Brian Black's ranch. Although we go to hunt for hogs we also get to spend time doing allot of other fun things like taking pictures, hiking, and looking for Indian artifacts.

UTAH










David sent me to visit my family while he started his first week of school. I'm having a great time! We've been camping, and arrow head hunting. We found some pretty cool pottery! Then we had a girls party with six of my seven sisters and my mom. My camera has stopped working so I only have pictures from the Beginning of this week.

Here are some more fishing pictures. Some are from Ciblo Creek and some are from Lake Travis. This is what we spend most of our free time doing.
