Trampoline owee

Corbin lost his balance and fell and hit his head on the metal bar of the trampoline edge. It made a deep cut above his eye. It was bleeding down his face, but the first thing he wanted to do was to look at it in the mirror before I could clean it up. what a boy!! He took the clean up like a champ and got a fly bandaid on it to help close it up and got an ice cream for being a trooper.

So our internet has not been working properly the last week or so, this is the meaning of no updates. Sorry!!! I have posted some things we have been up to so enjoy the pics.

Ava Moments

She loves playing Peek-a-boo and hide-n-seek

This is Ava leading the music during conference

Yes, that is hair you see on her head!! finally right.

She picks out this tutu everytime the kids play dress up. She loves to try things on and be just like the big kids when they play anything. The older kids aren't too pleased with it though.

Pads anyone?

Ok, so all you moms and ladies out there can appreciate these pictures. It only takes time, but your children will find your "stash" of girlie products and think they are just so much fun to play with. Well this is what Ava found one day in the bathroom, I had to take a picture. She thought she was so pretty, she acted like it was a princess crown and strutted her stuff.

St. George Weekend

My two very cute nephews!!

Cassidy and Shawn it was so good to hang out with you. Thanks for inviting us down for the weekend. I enjoyed going to the temple with you guys and hanging out. Thanks Shawn and Daniel for watching the kids you guys are the best brothers ever!!!

We got to see my Nana and hang out with her all weekend. That was fun for everyone too.

Daniel and Jacob

St. George Trip II

Here is Corbin and Jadelyn's Funny faces

Uncle Shawn was making Corbin laugh so hard I had to take a picture.

The kids and I stopped at the St. George Temple after the evening events before we went back to the hotel. We could't resist its beauty at night when it is all lit up.

Fall Pictures

Well Fall is here and it is so much fun to actually see trees turning colors!! The kids are actually seeing and feeling the difference between seasons. Before they had to "imagine" what real fall leaves were and soon snow!! We went for a drive up the canyon and ended up getting out and hiking in the trees for a bit and taking some fun pictures.

We saw some deer on our drive up the canyon.

We had to stop for a minute to let the cows get out of the way on the road. The kids loved that one.

The boys: Tanner, Spencer, Ethan and Corbin

You can't resist throwing a bunch of leaves in the air when you are surrounded by so many of them on the ground.

Fall Pics II

Kindergarten Pictures

This was a picture taken on her first "school picture day". Yes, Brad and I are first timers here and it was exciting. look out for one in the mail we got some wallet pictures to send out!

New Camera!!

So I got a new camera from the best dad in the world!!! Its the NIKON D80 and I am loving it! I have used it quite a bit this past few weeks, but I still have a lot to learn. Fun Stuff. I love taking pictures. Thanks Dad. I love you.

What a Hail Storm !!!

Last week we had a huge hail storm come through. Myself from Cali and AZ never saw such a thing!! Yes we did have hail storms in those places, but hail this big was beyong cool to watch. It covered the yard within minutes. Once we knew it had stopped the kids got buckets and went to collect as much ice as they could. They didn't get very much because their hands got to cold holding the ice. I am getting my first exposures of different weather each day that I am here. Crazy, yet so fun!!

Football Season Part I

This is Spencer playing at his football game.
He is Number 87. This is his first season and he is getting better each time he plays. Since Brad and I don't have kids with sports yet, It is fun to go see these boys at their games and be involved. Its great to see them out there playing because they love the game so much.
