Have you seen or heard from these persons? They are sincerely missed! Please report any sightings to the Dunlap Dealings Blog!

Favorite and Cutest grandkids ever!

Pictures of our puppies and dogs are not even on this computer! So.......for those not having canine photos, I'm choosing an alternate blog for favorite grandkid photos! Our eldest and already over a year into the teen years is Colby, enjoying earning bribe money from one of his uncles.
It makes me giggle just to look at him!!!!!!!








This one shows the next five, Aiden, Deven, Brianna, Emily, and Benjamin, enjoying hor d'ouvres as they wait for their supper!


I just have to add this one of the TV reception 'deprived' children from Utah enjoying the Nickolodean channel!
Jill, I can't figure out how to edit these either! I tried to add one more of our "baby grandchild's" 3rd birthday I can't find it! Aghhhhhhhhhhh!!!!

Cutest dog ever!--Picture Theme

I think we should institute a new picture theme. Since 4 of the 6 Dunlap families (sorry Blaine's and Mom/Dad) have doggies, let's do a cutest dog picture. Of course the Blaine's and Mom/Dad can participate by choosing pictures from the past (i.e. Jammer, Rocky or the other numerous dogs the Dunlap's have owned...OR a random internet dog =)).

My selection. Zoey is so darn cute it was hard to pick just one BUT this one is one of the best.

Frusterations and randomness and cutest puppy submission.

Hmm.....well these pictures were supposed to be after my blog....I really need help learning to edit these I'm at a loss. Anyhow though here are some pictures of my submission for the cutest dog ever and of us exploring a cave where we even had a real bat fly around and scare Amber and I to death :). Yesterday I had written and saved the following.........

Ok. I just wanted to say that today I have a great dislike of the technological advancements of our day such as evil computers and kodak easy share programs... I've been going through all our pictures from this year and I was going through the month of March around easter, it had the pics from Ambers birthday, my hike to feather falls with Sarah, Easter at home and Vegas with Renell...I had selected all my favorites from 433 to about 130 really cute special ones, and put them in my album of favorites for the year, then I decided to be all organized and delete that album because I had my favorites in the new album but in so doing it deleted all the pictures from that group in all my albums and now I can't retrieve them for all I've tried for hours and I am so frusterated, why is it that about 1/4 of the time I end up making more work for myself or problems then when I had started, it's as if, If I stayed in bed all day watching movies and eating bon bons I'd be way better off then trying to accomplish anything. Yesterday too I was being good and cleaning the house and I sucked up some of Thain's headphones in the vacuum and now the vacuum won't work properly either and the nice headphones are shot to pieces. ACk. Ok enough venting. (I'm sure Mom and her laundry room soap incident can relate though.).. Here are some pictures.............oh by the way........why are the only people writing consistently in this blog me and Justin and Alisa...........note to all others GET BUSY BLOGGING!! I want to know what's going on in your lives :). K. I miss and love you all.

When I was going to add pictures....I miraculously found the album in my computer under kodak pictures, I don' t know how that happened but I'm so thankful, I took hours last night retracting them one by one (the 433) because I knew no other good way and didn't want to take any chances of loosing them again :). Enough of Jill's ramblings for the day, oh by the way..who gets to judge this cute puppy contest ;).......I was over at Jen and Nate's today and asked Ben and Deven the loaded question of what puppy was the cutest as I hear Zoe was a big hit with them too and Ben answered very well that they both were :). bad me for even asking. Oh by the way is Zoe going crazy in chewing mode because Spunks sure is....I've decided he's going through both toddler and teenage stages as dogs are about fully grown in a year, he sure is sweet and cute though I took him to a lake beach here and he was so cute playing in the sand and water and trying to chase birds. We also went on a really long walk and he loved visiting and playing with Jen, Ben and Deven and licking anything good he could find from their floor today :).

Wow, well there's enough thougts from me to last a year......till next time then :).

First Family Photo

This is from the top of Mitchell Point trail. Zoey was such a little trooper over the weekend. She is a great hiker! She didn't like the water very much though (see her sad little face below).

Tubing with Blaine gang and todays picnic and biking

WELL....we do so much I can't keep up with blogging
but here are some pics from a week ago tubing down
Weber river with the blaines wich we had a great time
doing with them and then today we went on a picnic
and then up a big steep hill to bike down (around
farmington where
near the top the pic of Thain and Amber are running)

Nate's
the only one
brave Or stupid enough
to go down those rapids
I guess it wasn't that tough though
at the end he was like...what's the big deal :). We've had a great time camping around here too lately and going to lagoon just the
two of us. Tommorow we plan to go camping with the motorhome again and then induro riding. (our off road motorcycles :).)
it should be fun. Hope all is going great with everyone there :).

Family picture

This is the best family picture I found in our pictures! Aloha Dunlaps! :)

ok I can't pick just one but I really did push myself to only put two that I liked :). The one of Justin and alisa is on our hike with the beutiful view on the top and one of mom and Dad at the lual, dressed very Hawaiin so hopefully it can depict hawaii well too. Had
a lot of good ones. I sent on Dvd's to everyone so hopefully you'll all get them of our favs it's still a lot of pics though sorry. let me know if you don't this week!

Mud

So.. Sorry for taking so long to participate in the photo games, but here is an entry for both theme's.

I have all of our pictures up here.

Family theme #2

All right - I can do it! Just one picture: Sure! But no limit on number of blogs, right????

Walking to the beach with family!

Sorry to push the envelope! I couldn't choose between these two!

Vacation Photo Theme #2: Couple or Family Picture

For those still playing along at home: here is the second installment of the Vacation Photo Theme series that is sweeping the internets.

My take on the theme, the best picture you took that captures a couple or group of family members that best captures Kauai and Hawaii.

And for my entry into this theme:

I had better pictures of Kauai and I had better pictures of couples (not better couples in pictures), but I felt this picture best captured a couple and Kauai itself.

Here are a few pictures of our new puppy. I don't quite know how we ended up with him, I think we were pretty sure we weren't going to get one but it's my fault too, he was so darn cute. He's a sweet dog, lets you give it a bath, carry him around without any fussing, he just doesn't ever want to be alone . Him and Amber are quite attached now and she really has a great time with him. oh and the last picture is one of Amber and I tubing down the river, we've really enjoyed doing that a lot this summer too :). We look forward to going with the Blaine gang soon too.

More pics of the pup

Happy belated anniversary to Kathryn and Jeremy. I hope you guys did something romantic to celebrate (knowing Jeremy, you did), hehe!

Happy Belated Birthday Justin!

I'm sure you all will get sick of Zoey pics but here are a few more.

If we do go to Maine next summer I/we might want to take a few days after (or before) to go down to Boston to visit some of my old grad school friends. Keep us posted on the decision.

Zoey is born!

Well, a Kaylee became a Zoey today when we adopted our first pet together. She is a wonderful little girl with an amazingly sweet personality. So far we have had one accident on the carpet, but she has made up for it with her amazing cuteness. I hope we get to introduce her to you all soon. I am sure we will be showing more pictures here soon... when we aren't taking her down four sets of stairs to go again.
