Ski Day


Ash and Allie on their way to the top, what a beautiful day we had.


Syd's second day of snowboarding. She is doing great. She says she likes it better than skiing.


Laken catching a little air. He has gotten to be a pretty sick rider!


Ooops! sorry Syd I cut your head off. Tim and I love taking the kids skiing.

This was my Christmas project. The kids loved them (except for maybe Laken!)

Happy New Year !


Tim and Syd having fun. She was mad at Tim cause he wouldn't let her hang with the older cousins. She finally warmed up to a dance with him. It is Tims favorite thing to do with her.
I told her I would pay her a dollar.


Oh, yeah! Shake your bon bon!


We were all enjoying watching this little interlude. I think that they were both in heaven. Gene will never admit to that.


Tammy is holding on tight!


Thats me all covered up so that I wouldn't get hay fever. I was determined to avoid my eyes swelling out of my head. It worked!


The kids would fall off and have to hurry to get back on. They had lots of cheering from the sleigh.


Mason and Wade are the kings of the castle!



Grandma Rocks!

Time flies when your having fun! We had a wonderful Holiday Season and loved spending time with our family.

I'm Thankful

A very Belated Happy Halloween!!
Dog For Sale!!

Will I float away Like Curious George?






Holy Cow Bat Man!




It's that time of year. Yeah! My favorite I think. I love Thanksgiving and the message it serves. I also love food so yes, its pretty much a winner. Just a shout out to anyone who reads this blog. I am thankful. My husband often wonders if I am thankful for him. Well yes, honey I am. I am thankful for health benefits and cars that work. I am thankful for a house that isn't very big or updated but keeps me and my kids warm and safe. I am thankful for good friends who miss me when I am not at church and call me to go for walks. I am thankful for parents who bring me wood so I can have a warm fire in the winter. I am so thankful for family that helps me sing to my little boy on his 3rd birthday. I am thankful for great grandparents who remember their greatgrandkids birthdays. I am thankful for pants that fit today and the ones that won't tomorrow. I could go on and on. I know times are hard and many will go without this Holiday season. I am so blessed and it has taken me writing a few things down to really believe it. God Bless You All.

Fall Happenings

The kids and I made a trip up to Idaho to see this new addition to grandmas house. A cute pony named Sweetie. The kids thought she was great. (bad picture sorry)
Not far off the trail sits a big bull moose. According to Laken (aka crocodile hunter) a bull moose could easily take down a cougar or mountain lion. Not sure on that one but Laken was scared senseless.



We hiked to dog lake on Sunday. It was beautiful.


Oh Sydney(masons forever and only one true love) don't listen to them, our love will last I know it will.


Sydney has the Halloween spirit...be careful with that knife!


Loving every minute of it.


Go Allie!


Last game of the season. He is not sure what to do with himself now. Hmmm let me tackle my sisters!

Happy Birthday Ash!

Little Ashlyn turned 7 today. Pretty crazy to see her getting so big. We had friends and family over for cake and icecream. She is such an easy kid to love and be around.

Finally a baby book! Thanks mom.

This crazy girl wanted a funfetti cake with no frosting and cookies and cream icecream. No sweat sweetie!

Dash hasn't changed his super suit for 3 days now. Thanks Lyndsey!
