The Fire Station

Isaac Had his first field trip with his pre-school. He thought he was sooo big! I can't believe that he is in pre-school! We started with a fire safety movie and than moved on to see the BIG fire truck. He thought he had died and gone to heaven! I love this kids!!

This is Isaac with his friends. They are of course the cutest girls in the class. He takes after his big brother.
Here he is having his lunch. This was the highlight of the whole day!! He absolutely LOVES to take a lunch some where and this day he got to take one to school with him. Now he thinks he needs to take one every time.

Loved to see the big fire truck!!

Humoring Mom and letting me take pictures when all he wanted to do was go eat his lunch.

Here he is so proudly holding his beloved lunch. He was on cloud nine that day. I am so glad I was able to be part of it.

Ben turns 12!!!

I can't believe that my baby boy has turned 12!

We had a great party for him a Noah's. It is a building that has like 12 rooms. Some are for movie parties others are for playing pool or ping pong. We got the racket ball room. It was heaven! We can put all the kids in a big glass room and they can go crazy. We can make a huge mess and don't have to clean a thing up!! My kind of party! Thanks to all the family and friends that supported us on the very special day!

I can't hear you!!!

I still can't hear you!!!!

A new Year!

Can't believe school is already here!! It is a bitter sweet year this year.

My Ben is in his last year of elementary school.

Sarah is on 2nd grade this year ans loving every minute of it!

Megan is an all to wise and fashionably ahead of her time 5th grader. She ran for class President and won! It has been a great first few weeks of school.

And here is my sweet, thinks he is an adult awesome 6th grader! He is loving school!

I have my 2 cute little guys at home with me, but they seem to be growing up as well. Isaac starts preschool this year and is very eager for that every Tuesday and Thursday. We have to make two extra lunches every morning for the boys. They love caring those around with them all morning long. You would think it is helpful, but by snack time the lunch is gone.

Love watching my kids grow and to see them make good choices and stand up for what is right. They all have the best friends and are in a very great environment.

Megan turn's 10!

Well my little girl is growing up! Megan had a great birthday party this year! I can't believe she is 10!
I think this will be the last year of mixing boy's and girls.
As you can tell in this picture the boy's are in their little group and the girls are in their little group. It didn't help that big brother Ben let the group of boys to make the girls scream.
I am so grateful for the wonderful friends that Megan has made and I hope they can stay close as the awkward years are just around the corner.

Megan's Reading Bug

Our Megan is one busy girl. She is our little business owner.

Last year she started a summer business which is called "Reading Bug". For one hour every Tuesday kids form the ages of 3 to 7 come over and she reads stories dances, makes crafts and have a snack. She absolutely loves it and is really good at it! The kids love her and I don't have to do a thing. SHe has it all under control. She say's that one day she wants to be a teacher. She will be awesome at it!

Sledding!

Having a great time sledding!

What a handsome kid! Always looking for a fun time.
Meg's would speed down the hill and totally wipe out at the bottom.
Josh wasn't too sure about the whole thing. He is our cautious child. Never thought I would have one of those. He liked the little hills.

This is one of the many wonderful things about living in Utah, the snow.

We are just 10 minutes away form the best sledding hills. It is at a place owned by the church, it is where they hold a lot of camps and ward actives. It is free to go use and the kids love it.

It was the first time sledding for Josh and Isaac and they totally loved it. There are big hills for the big kids and there are small hills for the small ones.

Happy BirthdayX2

Love having Josh and Isaac's birthday's 4 days apart. Makes for a week long celebration. It is al so very nice to have family around to celebrate with. We had a nice party for the boy's with the family that is near us and had a lot of fun, or as my Dad puts it "quality chaos," and thats it was. We had 13 kids running around having a blast. It is so fun to have cousins near. I can't help but think of all the fun times we had up at the farm. That was a blast!

Another year down, and many, many more to come. Love making memories.

Greg was more excited about the trucks than

the boys were.

What a great looking group of people!

Having fun opening presents!

All the kids having fun with the presents and Auntie

Jenny helping put things together.

They think they are dogs. Had way too fun

with their cupcakes.

Tired, but excited to open his gifts.

Loves my boys! Growing up way too fast!

What they looked like after they smashed their

faces in their cupcakes.
