Our Newest Addition

Meet Daisy! I guess I am a major sucker because they had these lab puppies in the parking lot of Wal Mart yesterday and I gave in and bought one. The kids have wanted a dog for so long and I was weak I guess. She is only five weeks old and so stinkin cute!!

This was Daisies first bath which she seemed to like. We will see if I am really a dog person over the next few weeks. She seems like a good puppy, but we will see. You may see her back on here in a few weeks for sale. J/K

Daisy is so black that you can barely see her eyes and nose. In almost all of the pictures I took you can hardly tell what is what. She sure is cute though.

Trip of a Lifetime!!

After Ryan's wedding we all went to Disneyland for two days together. We haven't all been together for 6 years and we were only missing two people. The kids had an absolute blast together! We all love Disneyland so it was the perfect place for a "reunion".

We bought all of the kids character shirts to wear while we were there. They all looked so cute! The anticipation the first morning was almost unbearable!

Ash, Burke and Brax waiting to leave.

Haley, Dalin, Landon, Brax, Logan and Burke. The Livingstons drove all the way down from Montana to come to all of the festivities.

Haley, Em and Lindsey.

Ellie & Paityn didn't go on Splash Mountain so they got to wait with Nana and see Tigger.

All of the grandkids, after we rode winnie the pooh.

Dalin, Burke and Brett on Thunder Mountain. Everyone loved this ride except for Logan and Ellie. Ellie cried the whole time in line, and through the whole ride, but she survived.

No matter how you slice it or dice it there is a lot of waiting at Disney. It was fun with all of the family though.

Paityn, Ellie and Ash on the corousel; Ashtons favortie ride.

Once again, more waiting, this time improved by eating churros.

Ryan, Briar and Leah.

Burke finally gave out at lunch. We definitley did a lot of walking and it caught up with him.

Bradley wasn't in a lot of pictures because he slept a lot which was a good thing. I had to get a picture with Mickey though.

We coldn't leave without a picture of Briar at the Briar Patch. What a cutie!!

We went to the beach the last day of our trip. Everyone had more than a blast!! I didn't get as many pictures as I wanted because Brad was being a pill, but this was my favorite on I took.

The sand says Ables 2008. How fun! I lvoe you all and am so thankful to be a part of your family!!

Ryan & Leah's Wedding
Oct. 4, 2008Ricky's brother Ryan got married last week so all of us Ables went down for the event. We had a great time and are thrilled for Ryan and Leah!!

Four sisters; Lisa, Amy, Leah, Emily. I love these gals! They are truly my sisters!!

This is one of my favorite pictures from the wedding. All the boys love Aunt Leah.

Briar got sick half way through the festivities and threw up on her pretty dress. She looks darling in Burke's shirt and her white shoes.

Brett, Burke & Brax playing on the hammocks. These hammocks kept all of the kids busy most of the reception.

This is Burke recovering from being the ring bearer. He was nervous to do it, but he did great and he didn't die from everyone watching him. I was very proud of him.

Burke and Braxton loved their tuxes. They kept asking if they could keep them.

Aunt Amy made all of the girls' dresses and they were so cute. Ellie loved hers, can you tell?

Haley, Emily, Lindsey, Ellie and Paityn looking lovely.
