Brown Family Reunion

Denver had a blast at the reunion as always! Everything was just perfect and we loved catching up with all of the family! We still didn't get the camera out enough but we will do better!











Tanner and Braxton stole the pinata and the ransom for it was for Shelly and Shannon to have a dance off. This is Shelly rallying all the kids and offering $20.00 to anyone who could return it so they wouldn't have to do a dance off.



On our way home Denver and I stopped in Holbrook to take pictures of the sunset.

New Looks!

The Finch home has gotten a few new looks lately. First off, Denver got a new hair cut after a few months of growing it out. Here is the before picture....


Here are the after pictures.... LOOK AT THIS HANDSOME GUY! I'm sooo stinkin' lucky;)

Next, we finally framed our wedding pictures after 6months, so we rearranged our living room.

New Bedspread!

Denver and I have been organizing and sprucing up the apartment lately and we thought it would be nice to get a new bed spread. So we shopped and shopped and we finally found this one and fell in love with it! We have more pictures to come with our living room and picture arrangements as soon as we get one more wedding picture in the mail.

Houston's Blessing

Denver and I got to go down to the valley for sweet, little Houston's blessing. I feel bad I didn't get any pictures of Houston in her precious, blessing dress or a picture of her and her family. But I did get a picture of her and Brooklyn. I was so excited, Houston posed just perfect for the shot!


Here are a couple of pictures of the family there. We were all there except Blake, Martha, and Riley. We sure missed you guys!

Bentley with Papa.



Raynie and Boston.

$$CASH FOR CLUNKERS$$

No I'm kidding! I wish!

Matt let Denver and I take this sweet ride around the block, our first time driving a mustang.

Branding at the Ranch

Denver and I were all packed and ready to go to Mesa for the weekend when Denver received a call from his dad. He asked if we could go to the ranch and help brand for the day on Saturday. We said "Of course!!" So Denver and I grabbed some branding clothes and headed off to the ranch. We spent the night and woke up early to get saddled and ready for the days work. We first gathered the cattle, then separated the cows and calves to be branded.

Look at that Cowboy! I'm so stinkin' lucky!

Tanner and Denver playing with the dogs...No they were just putting them in the horse trailer to get them out of the way.

Denver and Tanner wrestling the calf, me giving the shots, Cliff cutting, Dad branding, Bill roping along with Colby, Dustin, and Destry.

Here's a video of how it's all done.

Wet 'N Wild

This weekend Denver and I got to go to Wet 'N' Wild. I got off for the day Friday and Denver got off early so we ran down and went to the temple. Then we met up with Brook, Dallas, and Little Houston at the mall and had dinner and watched a movie at their house. Then Saturday moring we got up and headed to North Phoenix to meet up with our friends, the Bushman's, at Wet 'N Wild.




Denver and I with Patricia and Steven.



The kid play area

Our favorite ride. (The yellow one)

Another fun slide that you go down on your stomach. When Denver came down, his slider board flew up and smacked his chin and now its swollen...poor guy!

Our New Rocking Chair

Denver and I went yard selling with Brooklyn a few weeks ago and we found this rocking chair for ten dollars. It definitely needed some work done to it, so Denver and I sanded and refinished it.
