Teag's baby

this is Teag's new pride and joy...

I have been hearing about Traeger Smoker's

(and how bad Teag needs/wants one) for a few years now.

Teag's friend Dylan in Boise has one and we borrowed it a few Thanksgiving's ago and had THE BEST turkey I have ever had! Teag hasn't stopped talking about the Traeger and finally gave in and got one for himself.

Needless to say, there has been A LOT of meat purchased and smoked at our house since he picked up this bad boy...

everything from ribs to brisket, pork shoulders to steaks, and more.

And I don't really eat meat...good thing we know a few big guys that can eat a lot!

I tried telling him that if he really wanted one he had to get the pig...he didn't go for it :(

Newport 2010

our CHAMPION!

just had to give a shout out to my cute dad...

last Saturday he won the

Willow Creek Senior Club Championship!

This is the second time he has won it and we are so proud of him!

He is almost as good of golfer as he is a dad and grandpa :)

(which is saying a lot because he is an incredible golfer!)

Good thing he had all 3 of his daughters in town,

we made him get a picture by the scoreboard and celebrated afterward with one of his favorite's - banana meringue pie.

Nice work dad! We love you!

O-Line Breakfast

Training camp started last Sunday, so Saturday morning we had the offensive line

over for breakfast. Dallas was beyond excited that the "football guys" were coming to his house!

We had quite the spread...just to give you an idea of the amount of food:

12 loaves of french bread for stuffed french toast

10 dozen eggs...yes 10!

8 loaves of Great Harvest apple crumble bread

8 cartons each of strawberries and blueberries

8 bunches of bananas
2 ENORMOUS smoked pork shoulders

4 gallons of milk

4 gallons of OJ

We wanted to give the guys some good food before they have to eat dorm food for 2 weeks!

Schauerhammer, Steve and Brock

Gavin, Russ, Greg, Big D andBrandon

Trevor playing with Dallas.

Dallas is getting pretty good at knowing all the guys names,

but it is by far the FUNNIEST thing to hear him say 'Schauerhammer'!!!

Teag is a total slave-driver so he had Russ on the elliptical after breakfast ;)

Brandon and Greg

Steve, Big D and Gavin

These guys are all so great and they are all so cute to Dallas! We are so excited for football season and can't wait for the first game in just a few weeks. Hopefully all the hard work pays off and the T-birds have a winning season!

Whiting Reunion

King's Birthday!

Our little buddy Kingston turned 2 a few weeks back and had such a fun jungle party!

King is Dallie's little friend whose dad is Coach Walterscheid and mom is my friend Shauna.

There were tons of kids and tons of fun things to do...
