Looking back at the good times!







































Well, its been a long time since Ive posted. Sorry about that!

Anyways, in the months since Ive been gone, lots has happened.

First off, summer was great. Got to visit family and friends for a few days. Kylie stayed with Grandmas Hinton and Miller. The economy has hit us too. We are still living OK. Just cant do the extras like going to Vegas and things of that nature. Lynn still has his job, thanks to Mom and her business. Its been a little slow but glad for the work. We went up to Swiss Days over Labor Day. Was the first time for me, but I will definitely be there next year. Dad and Linda finally got to come up and see where we live. They stayed awhile and we got to know them again. We really enjoyed having them here.

School started and Kylie is in the 8th grade now. She is doing Ok and working hard. She will be 14 in February. Tyler is now 20, Taylor 19, Kylie 13, and Bekalynn just turned 2.

Tyler just broke his shin jumping over a wall. Boys will be boys. He is doing good, at home with his Dad and working for Dominos. Taty started Cosmotology School and is doing great. She also works full time at IFA. She is gone from home from 7:30am to 10:30pm. Long days and short nights for her. We very rarely see her. Sometimes for days at a time.

Bekalynn just turned 2. We had her birthday party at Grandma Vissers and she got lots of presents and had lots of fun. She is walking, talking and giving us that full 2 year old tantrums. She is a really good kid but she still has her terrible twos sometimes.

Lynn and I are doing great. We've sold almost all our horses. Thats a relief! We love them but when it comes to eating...........We choose us. Couldnt afford to feed them. Feed is still high.

In December we are going to go to Vegas. We are going to get the whole family picture, staying 2 weeks. We are so excited to see everyone! Cant wait!

Well, I think thats all. Ill try to do a better job keeping updated. Its easy to forget when youve got facebook.

Hope this message finds all well with you and yours. Happy Holidays! Love Toni

What a pretty family

Well, it finally happened, we finished the cruise and we had a great time. The traveling to get there was kinda tiring and everyone was moody. We flew in the night before (thursday) and stayed in Cocoa Beach, Fl. We went down to the beach and got to see a Sea Turtle rescue. One of the guys fishing off the pier hooked him by mistake. We got up the next morning and went to the cruise ship.(friday)
It was another lesson in patience with each other, (a really big one), but we made it on board and off to the Bahamas. We kinda relaxed that first night and then we were ready for our Sea Lion Encounter. (saturday) We all had a ball and the day was a lot more relaxed. Kylie went to the teen scene thing and we went shopping. Turns out the local shops were closed so we ended up going to Atlantis. It was beautiful and amazing. I was used to casinos, but the aquarium, the sculptures, etc made it better then a casino. We took lots of pictures there. (as you can see)
The next day (sunday) we went to their private island and got to relax and do some snorkeling. We loved the island and would have loved to spend another couple of days there. Then we went back to the ship, dinner, etc and then on Monday, we were back in FL. It was short but we had lots of fun.
We talked Tyler into staying a few extra days and it was so nice to get to spend time with him. He went home Thursday and we are still missing him.
To sum it up, we didnt spend alot of money, (if you want to go cruising, now is the time to go for some really cheap prices) and we had a great time. We missed the baby but it was better that she didnt go. Anyway, thanks for reading my ramblings. I love and miss you all and cant wait to come and visit Vegas again. See you then!

Me and my Taty

Waiting for our Sea Lion Tour


Shes crazy but we love her still.



Tyler and Lynn had the snails but the girls and I passed. YUCK!



We asked for a taxi but got a limo instead. Poor Kylie wasnt with us.


Here we are at the beach. It was their private Island, CoCoCay.





We snorkeled.








Daddy and Kylie




Kylie and Dante, she had a bit of a crush on him. He woo'd her with all the food she wanted. What a guy!










Dante, FaithLynn, and the kids.







We stopped by the Space Center and wanted to go in but it was too expensive and as you can see by the picture of us, Tyler was his usual chipper self.
