Yard helper picker upper & Wheel Barrel ride of fun!!

On Sunday, Carson and I got a call from Papa Wadd-dey that Glenda had a tree fall in her yard from the wind storm, so we went to chuch and then after put on our grubby clothes, and picked up the wood and
stacked it, and picked up all the tree branches and sticks. Carson had a good time, helping. He made sure that he picked up all tiny little ones.!! Silly boy!! He had a great time, and did a splendid job, so we rewarded him with a fun ride in papas old dirty wheel barrel thats at least  as old as I am. We got 2 videos, and we took some pictures of some of the cows that were congregating by the fence. Carson wasn't scared at all, they just wanted some grass to eat, so we ripped up some tall grass from the yard and we either fed them from our hands, or just threw it down on the ground for them to eat. Carson was so cute.

03/31/2011 DRL Presents "Mike and Carson Bettis Reunion Benefit Show"

What a blast this event us!! I wish Carson was old enough to come celebrate with me.  Mike has been friends with this Band  "Dirty Rooster Lollipop" since the very beginning,  he was pretty much part of the band. They have been trying to organize a benefit concert to for carson and mikey since after mikes death and they haven't had an opportunity until now. The show was also a Reunion get together for the band as they haven't performed together in over a year. Since Mike has been there from the beginning, and has supported them, this is their way of thanking Mike for his support and they wanted to do this to have a little something tucked away for Carson. It was at Darbys downtown Nampa. It was a FANTASTIC show!! They always do a great job!! They played 3 of my favorite songs!!  Insanity, Palm of my Hand, and Goodbye.  It was so perfect!! There was a huge crowd that gathered around the stage to rock out with them. I took krystal with me, and we didnt leave till probably after 1230. :))

Gpa Wadd-dey came over to our house, to watch the lil man. I hear they watched Fireman Sam over and
over! It is Carson's FAVORITE cartoon right now on our netflix.

Overall, it was a great night, with geat music, and terrific friends. I even told a couple of the band members that they needed to do this again for Carson's 21st bithday.

HAHAHAHA!!!!!

Carson grew a mole...

Poor babes....and not so pefect timing for church directory pictures tomorrow.
Carson had fallen off his scooter and into some lil rocks, he came in and said he was blooding.. (bleeding)
HAHAHA.. and he had gotten a lil cut on his upper lip, and then this *big little* scab showed up. It had been there, but hard to see cause it was so light in color. Now its dark, and shows up everwhere.
He's still just as handsome as ever.  Will post picture soon.  Of course I have one, I have pictures of EVERYTHING that goes on !!!!!

BIRTHDAY # 3

It’s been so long since I’ve written on here; I forget what I have already talked about.  I write so much, cause when my little love gets older he can look back on these days and memories and laugh about them..heck maybe he will do some of these same exact things with his children.. My grandchildren.. (woooo….that sounds very weird)  His 3rd birthday was a hit of course.  Lots of friends showed up. We had his papa dave and gmma bettis make Pulled Pork Sandwiches again for the 3rd year in a row!! That stuff is the BOMB!!! SO DELISHIOUS! We did a tractor theme, and his cake had a big # 3 on it, and the top of it looked like dirt and there were toy trackers on it. It was so cute, and it tasted wonderfully. Our cake person also makes Cake Pops. “Cake Lollies” and they were Red velvet inside.  J  We had so much fun.
After the party was over, we went home and papa Wad-Dey came home w/ us and stayed the night, but we went and got some dinner at Red Robin, just so I could get them to sing to him J In which they did.  J It was such a beautiful day. It was the first birthday without Daddy. So thankful for all the friends and family that came out to help us celebrate this special occasion.

WARHAWK AIR MUSEUM---Another fun day!!

Carson got to spend another day w/ Papa Dave Bettis. Carson use to be so fascinated with Airplanes and he still sorta is but more so w/ fireman stuff. Well Papa took Carson to do a tour at the Air museum in Nampa.  Carson stood infront of some of the planes and there was one where they had painted a mean face on it, and he told papa and gramma not to show mom the mean one.  J Mom did see it anyway!! After the tour and pictures (J ) he got to pick out some real cool $.10c toys. He got some green army men, helicopter, a tank, and some other lil airplanes.

CARSON the CARPENTER

We’ve been helping my dad with several remodel projects, so we go down every weekend, and he puts us both to work. This one particular weekend, we were going to lay carpet, and my dad has a carpet stretching tool, and Carson was eager to use it and help out so by all means, we let him do the toughest part, and he was the most handsome lil carpenter. After doing carpentry---he still wants to be a fireman so he can help people and put out all the fires.

CE-WROL HANDS

During one of our late night cereal snacks, Carson got really tired pretty fast that he fell asleep in his chair, w/ one hand in his cereal. It wasn’t his entire hand, but just the fingers, and its soooo funny… picture to follow….of course. I have pictures for everything!

ONE SIDED

Sometimes Carson talks really funny with his mouth on purpose to get people to laugh. He will move his lips to one side and say something funny, and he does it when he’s kidding around about something.  J It makes me smile..so I have to copy him and do it back.

FIREMAN CARSON

He makes the cutest little blonde fireman boy--- He got to be a fireman for the day..or so he says.. (Couple hours) and he can’t stop talking about. I absolutely love his excitement and enthusiasm. I love hearing his version of how it all went time after time. We have a couple of pictures, and they are cute!!  He says he wants to be a real fireman when gets bigger. He just needs mom to buy him his fireman rain boots and then he says he will have everything he needs.  J HAHAH!!! This is perfect cause we have already decided to do a fireman themed birthday party for him this year---  J And I have already begun to work on that ---of course!!! He is 3 ½ years old at this time, and so I better get on the ball.

Ruff Ruff—I’m not a dog!!

Kids say the darndest things. I was baking cookies this past week, and was texting my friend Andrea on Monday night which was Valentines Eve for us --- and I was just texting her to say that the cookies I’ve made and put in her little Valentines Goody bag was almost complete. She texted back and said “Ok homie” and then I replied back with Ok, Dawg but said it out loud as I typed it, and I was chuckling about it. Carson must have heard me say that and he assumed I was telling him “ok, Dog”.. so he yelled out “I AM NOT A DOG MOMMY” It was pretty funny.

Update 2012----

Carson and I are still kickin in the country house. We are still trying to purchase a house. The process is very horrendous and stressful, and it’s barely begun. We wanted to be in a house by his 3rd birthday, but that didn’t happen so now I’ve set a new goal; by his 4th birthday. There are several homes for sale, so I know that won’t be a problem when the timing is perfect.


I really use to be good at writing on his site every week, but I have slacked majorly in that dept. Now that this site offers to print these journals in a beautiful book I really need to stay on top of the journaling, especially cause of the date stamp under each post. I want each little story to be true to its time.
