family family family

when you get married your amount of family activities double. Jordan and I are fortunate enough to both have four parents instead of two so ours is even bigger. I swear half of our life is spent at family get togethers of some sort. luckily we couldnt ask for better family on any side. Lots of them are crazy but we love them all dearly and are so grateful to have them in our lives. and my mom was right.......my brothers and sisters are my best friends.

WOW

Jordan has always been such a good example to jakester........

Why have one when you can borrow one????

We love love love our nephews lucas and levi!! Like I said why have one when you can borrow one??

The cabin

We have so much fun at the cabin and go up there as much as we can. These pics are only a few of the fun things we do up there. Along with the fishing, swimming and all jumping on nanner and steve in the morning we ride 4-wheelers, shoot stuff, have camp fires and lots of relaxing. I wish we could just live up there!! Just for fun, how many dogs and people are on the bed????

answer is 3 dogs and five people.........crazy stuff is bound to happen when the haslers are around

Oregon

Even though this trip to Oregon was back in May I decided I need to blog them anyway. This trip was so incredible for so many reasons. It was a wonderful experience to go be with the people Jordan served on his mission. Oregon was so beautiful and the Browns were awesome, we love them so dearly. If you ask Jord he would tell you they were the reason he went on a mission. So here is some pictures of Jeff Brown's cranes, they were so cool!

This is Jordan and Jeff collecting crane semen to attifically inseminate a female with, how many people can say they have done this???

Here they are putting the collected semen into the female.

Notice in this picture how nice this crane is that he is petting

Same exact crane two minutes later attacking me. He must not like girls. You can't tell but when this guy stands up he is at least six feet tall....so it was kinda intemidating to get attacked and chased down by him. Jeff had to grab him because he started chasing me and biting my arms. It was pretty funny now that I look back on it.

These ones were nicer.

Strawberry

This last weekend we spent the day up at Strawberry Resivor and Fished and let the dogs swim, Then we headed uo into the mountians for a bbq and some more fishing. It was so gorgeous where we went. We had tons of fun!!

Brin was sooooo tired after playing with her friends all day. I don't look to happy in this one......If you know me you know how accident prone I am. By this point I had already split my foot open from dropping wood on it and had my first experience with stinging needle. Oh and several mesquito bites. It was totally worth it though!

Jord caught 7 fish!

The boys are gearin up for the fish

This is Rusty and Gus, Brin's best friends. They love to swim except Brin is a sissy about swimming so while I wasn't looking Jord threw her off the doc..... No she did not learn to swim. She almost drowned and he had to pull her out of the water. I wasn't very happy about it. Maybe Bullmastiffs just aren't meant to swim.

ugliest baby ever

This is one of the many baby pigeons we have. Believe it or not he is pretty good lookin compared to the younger ones. I thought all babies were cute.........boy was I wrong
