TyCee is my favorite sister because of all the things she does for me including watching my kids even when they slap her on the face. Kaelyn loves you ...... Is this heartfelt enough for you TyCee?

Ok so I'm sure as everybody already knows we are moving down to Cochise next month and so Michael and I have been down there like every weekend trying to get this house into shape to move into. So as Construction goes we (meaning Michael) just dump trash outside and then we'll just burn it later type deal. Well Kaelyn and I were watching Michael light the trash on fire. So were just sitting there (mind you we were prepared with the hose and stuff if it got out of hand) when this huge dust devil out of nowhere comes flying through the middle of our fire picks the flames up like a 100 feet in the air and just blows it in like four different directions. Yeah so at this point I jump off the truck running to find another bucket to help fight the fire. Anyways I left Kaelyn sitting on the back of the truck and then here comes the wind and blowes it maybe ten feet from the truck I freaked out ran over to her grabbed her by her head ( yes I know mean but it's the only thing I could grab quick enough) and threw her in the truck and moved it as far away as I could and still be able to see her. So at this point it's pretty much spread and we have NO handle on the situation so I'm throwing my stupid little buckets of water that aren't doing anything to help the situation. So of course I'm thinking could I back out now and leave Mike to explain to the fireman and the neighbors? (Ha just kidding honey I would never leave you.... I 'd come back when it was safe.) Mind you we have never met any of our neighbors that was on my to do list after we moved in, I'm thinking they might sign a petition to keep us out now!! Anyways so the fire guy (yes I mean GUY not GUYS, GUY) shows up and takes his sweet time starting the generator then like he has no muscle tries to pull out the hose. (ok let me take a second here and explain their "firetruck" it's a regular truck with a 10 gallon drumb of water on the back) So anyways my husband at this point I think is annoyed that there is only one guy and he doesn't seem to have a fire lit under him! So Michael grabs the hose and the guy drives around the property while my husband does the work. Gotta love the small town life. So in the process of all this Kaelyn is just sitting in the truck yelling MAMA fire get me. And of course I'm running in flip flops (see now that's an even funnier story because of the brush there I always wear shoes but I was in such a hurry that morning I forgot to put them on!) So yes just picture fat little Trista out of shape running for her life trying to save the property on flip flops AND shorts I might add. It was definetly a fun day. So we probably burned about 4 acres maybe more and here's the best part after I took Kaelyn back to the house where we were staying at TyCee and I look outside and they had called in Air support. Well all I can say is my husband really knows how to make an entrance! Luckly no structures were damaged and yes our neighbors still like us not sure about the Sheriff's department or the Fire department. TyCee had been joking earlier that she needed to come home with some good gossip because I had mentioned I wasn't feeling good she of course jumps to You're pregnant. But I just want TyCee to know that I hope she got her gossip fill with the fire! It was all for you! So when the bill comes I tell them to make that out to TyCee Julia Peters gossip queen.
