Angelo Basketball 2009

Here are some pictures of Angelo playing basketball this year. Angelo loves to play sports. Here at home you rarely see him without a ball in his hand. It is so much fun to watch him play. We are so proud of him!

Taylor and her Daddy

These two have a special bond. Taylor always lights up when she hear's his voice. She is such a happy little girl.

Taylor loves her brother!

Angelo playing the Wii. Taylor loves to watch Angelo play.


She is always mesmerized.



She is so adorable!

Taylor Playing

Taylor does not like to lay down.


Taylor is getting pretty good at playing with her toys. I love to watch how she concentrates. She studies everything.

The Start of Taylor Lana's Life

I feel that pictures tell the story best.


In Elko shortly after I found out I was pregnant.


I had been awhile since I had been to Elko. We decided to celebrate Bubba's B-day, The start of a new family and Grandma and Grandpa's 40th Anniversary.



I guess we fast forwarded 9 months. This is the day Taylor was born. We are on our way to the hospital.


Getting ready to deliver Taylor via C-section.

January 2009

Taylor trying to eat cereal with a spoon. She just spit it out. She loves her bottle.


I don't know which one enjoys this more. Taylor or Shane? Since the time she was born, Shane loves to let Taylor sleep on his shoulder and as you can see Taylor loves it as well.

Grandma thinks this was the greatest thing ever invented. Taylor does not like to lay down. This enabled her to sit up like everyone else. She will sit in it for hours playing with her toys.

As you can see brother is never to far away from his baby sister.

Christmas 2009

This picture was taken the day Shane made it home from Texas and the day Angelo was leaving for his dad's house. This Christmas was a little different this year. Angelo was with his dad which is always hard. Shane, Taylor and I went to California. This was the first year in 8 years that I have not been with my parents.
