Spreading like Wildfire!!

So, it's going around Eagar pretty fast and has even reached farther than that here and there. I suppose I should just make it official on here. Last Wednesday I found out that Clif and I are pregnant! We are both pretty excited! I am not very far along yet so I am still safe from morning sickness and such at the moment. According to my sisters' predictions I am due around the first of april!

Ashlyn and Affie

Ashlyn is know for being pretty silly in pictures usually. I took a bunch of her while we were camping, you can't tell she was filthy can you? :) !!! Anyway, there were severalthat were quite somber or peaceful looking and I wanted to put them together for fun!

Affie liked these yellow flowers. I thought it was an intersting group of portraits of her. Just don't pay too much attention to the obvious fact that she didn't have a mother around at the time. Daddy doesn't do Hair!

Steven Heap Camping Reunion

Clif, Allen, Ashlyn, Amie, Affie and I found a friend while at the Big Lake Dam. Actually she wasn't much of a friend, she and her baby were darting around in the rocks and once we started watching them she got a little mad and started hissing at us and darting all around. We think she is a weasle. It was fun to watch her though, I had a lot of pictures on my camera that had nothing in them since she was moving around so fast, faster than my camera could take a picture. :)

On our drive we were looking for wild raspberries but they aren't out yet. We stopped at this meadow with a bunch of wildflowers, I love wild flowers!!

During our raspberry hike, Clif headed down a steep hillside to take some pictures meanwhile Allen, the girls and I took a rest in the shade. Ashie and Amie got adventurous and climbed their own steep hillside, on the way down they sent enough big rocks flying that Allen, Clif and I would have been killed if we hadn't gotten up from our sitting position at the bottom of the hill. :)

Traditional Chicken Foot game amoung the Steven Heap Family. The boys were scobing us girls.

A green thumb, and a partial green thumb!

Our Garden is getting big, it's pretty cool to see.

My parents gave me some flower transplants from their yard since my

flower beds were pretty empty. I planted day lilies in this bed...
In here I planted Daisies, holly hawks, and a couple other things that I
don't quite remember their names...

This is my Cala Lily buld that came up...

These are my dahlia, begonia, gladiola, cosmos, and sweet peas.

I had a moment yesterday where I was able to just watch my husband as he was talking to someone. Usually he tells me to stop staring during the many times he catches me staring but he didn't know I was staring at him this time. Anyway, I was watching him and feeling completely special to be married to someone that I think is the most attractive guy I have ever seen. Maybe love paints things with a rose colored hue but I really do believe that he is the most handsome guy ever! He is not only attractive in looks, he is hardworking, dedicated, considerate, loving, tender, sweet, romantic, selfless, and true. Most people that know him, know he is a jokester and a teaser. Although this is what he portrays 90 percent of the time. I am lucky to see the wonderful person that is really there. He amazes me every day as I get to know him better and better. I love him so very much!!

Target Practice

This past weekend Clif and I went with his parents and Holly and Allen and their family for a drive on the mountain. We stopped to do a little target practice for fun and for Allen to site in his new scope since he got drawn for an elk hunt later this year.

Clif got new sunglasses!!!
Holly was commenting to me how Allen walks so much like his dad so we snapped this photo of the three of them walking back from taking a closer look at the targets.

Our Garden, or should I say "Clif's Garden"

Clif and I planted our first garden together (Corn, Beans, Peas, Tomatos, Garlic, Broccoli, Beets, carrots, Radishes, Squash, Zuccini, Lettuce, Potatoes, Pumpkins, Cucumbers, Watermelon, and Dill) It has become quite an obsession for Clif, he loves it. He will get home from work and spend hours in his garden, babying it and loving it. I go out with him often to check on the garden's progress but he accuses me of being a bad parent to the garden since I don't spend as much time with it as he does. :) He makes me laugh. So far we have enjoyed our radishes and lettuce. The peas are coming on just now and we have had a few of them so far. The whole garden is doing really well. These pictures were taken two weeks ago and now everything is twice as big. Oh yeah, in addition to the garden, Clif and I have planted 10 fruit trees around our yard and we look forward to when they are big enough in a couple of years to produce fruit.
