I'm just getting started with this blog thing so I'm not very good yet. Give me time. I should start by saying that Steve Davis is the love of my life. Even though I would love to smack him at times he is by far the nearest and dearest to my heart. He is my best friend. We have been married 27 years and still like each other. This picture was taken at the little ranch we own about a mile west of Ramah New Mexico. It is Steve's favorite place to be in the whole wide world and he teases that if he is away to long he will get old, but as long as he is in Ramah he will stay young and live forever. I'm banking on this cus I want him around a good long time.

This is the goofy family. Brandon is the oldest (He isn't really mine but I claim him) He isn't married yet but we hope someday he will be. He has the same humor as his dad and we don't stop laughing whenever he is around. Colter is mine an d Steve's oldest and is our monkee boy (This is not misspelled). He is a wonderful son that makes us very proud. He is so




At the time Brandon is serving in the military in Iraq. He has been there since last December and we have been so worried. We think he is brave and love and appreciate his dedication to keeping our country safe. He should get home in a few weeks and hopefully they won't have to send him back. When he is not on duty he lives in Indiana, which is way to far away and we are trying to talk him into moving closer to the South West. athletic it isn't funny and can climb, yes, like a monkee. Lindsey is our oldest daughter. She is our brown eyed beauty and would do anything for anybody. She is like the best mom ever and a real joy in our lives. Ashley is the baby and she is my mini-me. Same eyes, same temperament, same-o same-o. She is a delight and keeps me laughing.

Colter and his pretty little wife live in Logan Utah. They are both attending school at Utah State. Colter is going to be a geologist when he grows up which will be soon since he will graduate this spring. Elizabeth will also graduate in spring with a masters. We don't know where they will end up living, and this causes some concern for Steve and me. We really would love our children closer. They are expecting their first baby in February of this year. A little girl. We are soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo excited.



Lindsey and her husband Shawn live in McCall Idaho. No mans land in my opinion. They started a business building docks around the lakes there for the rich. I will admit that it is beautiful there in the summer, and we do enjoy visiting. They have two beautiful children. Sedona who looks just like here mom and is the most beautiful little thing. She just turned 3 on November 9th. She is such a little cowgirl. Trent was born April 7, 2008. He is so sweet. He has the biggest smile and is always so happy.



Last of the kiddo's is Ashley (flash) Rose. She is the baby of the family and we all want to take care of her and tell her what to do. She is working at getting her teaching degree in Arizona. She is serving as the relief society president in her singles ward so between work, school, church and a social life she stays very busy. She is the texting queen and I have had to learn to text just to keep up with her. I probably get 20 or more text a day from her. But she makes me smile so that's okay.


Now for the grand babies. I never knew just how much fun they were. That old saying that if I had known how much fun grandchildren were I would have had them first is really true. I just love them so much. They make me happy and tickle me from top to bottom and I love to look at photos as a matter of fact I spend tons of time scrap booking their photos. I think sometimes I am living in the past, like just looking at their photos and remembering how much fun I had with them. I do hate that they all live so far away. It makes Ramah feel like a prison sometimes. But none of our kids are settled really so it isn't like we would move to be closer yet. Although that might be a thought for the future, but then Steve would get old. What a dilemma.
