Yummy!

While we were busy digging carrots for the soup we were making Alayna was digging too. We turned around and she was shoveling dirt into her mouth as fast as she could. She was really enjoying herself. What a cutie pie.

The Farm

We went down to visit the farm and can some soup. We had a great time. We didn't get to see grandpa much he was gone in the truck but had a great time with grandma. The kids loved to help with the chores. Wish they were that excited to help me. Its much more fun to go help feed the cows. Kohnor and Kellsie helped with throw the hay to the cows while Alayna chase the cats. So glad we could visit. Thanks Mom.

Trick or Treating!

We went trick or treating with our friends the Evertons and there family. They had been watching the kids while KC and I were at the BSU game so we had to catch up with them. They had such a good time. Kohnor was so into it he wouldn't even stop for a picture. They sure got a lot of candy. I don't remember getting such good candy. This was also the first year that we have been home long enough to have trick or treaters at our house. It was fun to see all the costumes and hand out the candy. Our friend Heather that we haven't seen in years came up for the BSU game and the weekend and we had such a great time. So fun to hang out.

Party Anyone?

We had a Halloween party the night before Halloween and had a bunch of friends come over. It was so much fun. It was opptional to dress up so a couple of friends and I decided to dress up as 80's hotties and boy were we. We had games for the kids to play including bobbing for apples which was quite intertaining. We had lots of great food and lots of laughs. Thanks to all of you for coming and making it a great time.

All Tuckered out!

My sweet Alayna she was so tired. I was busy one day I had been out and about and came home to do a few things at the house and I was doing dishes and Alayna decided to come hangout with me. She was just playing on the floor and I turn around and she has passed out on the floor. It was so cute. Such a tired girl.

Does anyone know the Tooth Fairy?

loves to push his tongue through the gap.

Tooth number One

Tooth number Two

So it really has been a while because Kohnor has lost his second tooth before I get to document his first one. He is so funny. He decided to open a package with his teeth the first time and about pulled the first one. It was really loose has we headed to Utah but I thought for sure it would wait to come out until we returned home. Not so much. He worked on it and worked on it to where it about fell out on its own I barely had to pull it. He was so excited and wanted to show everyone. He just lost his second and our friend Katee pulled it out for him. She did a great job it just popped right out on his shirt. I can't believe how fast he is growing and how much he is changing. I am so proud of him. He is doing well in school and loves it and all that he is learning. He comes home and teaches Kellsie. He is such a big help. I sure love him.

Fall Photos

So I decided to update the pictures of my children. Since I didn't have a lot of time and I feel like once they are ready I want to take them as soon as possible. I decided to do them in my backyard. Well some ended up in the front yard but all were close to home which I love. They really did pretty well. I had the biggest problem with Alayna she just wasn't in the mood to smile for me. it took all afternoon to get her to smile and that was after the pictures were all done. She was playing in the front yard and we played peek a boo around the tree. Lynndi helped with the kids so it made things easier. I loved how they turned out. I am one proud Momma. They are so adorable. I am very blessed to be a Mother to these three wonderful children. I love them so much.

Roller Time!

This is the first time Alayna had rollers in her hair. She did great while I was puttin them in and I was so excited to see how it would turn out. Well she fell asleep so they were in a lot longer then planned. She looked like a bad perm job. With such a tight curl that wouldn't relax it looked terrible. It really was kind of funny though. Next time they will stay in like hot rollers and it will be much better. She is such a cutie. She makes us all laugh with her funny antics.

"I can too wear it Mom"

Kellsie thinking the fit it just right.

My little poser!

So Kellsie came out of Alayna's room looking looking like this. She then informs me that it fits and would I please button it up. Does it look like it is going to button. She is just so funny. Always making me laugh with the things she comes up with. What would I do without her. It has been fun to spend time with her while Kohnor is in school.

Canning!

Lots of hard work.

Such pretty colors.

Trying new things.


This is just some of the canning that I have been doing this summer. It really has been kind of fun. I have done most of it on my own which is a first for me because I usually do it with my mom. We didn't have time this summer. I tried some new things this year at least for me. I did some pepper jelly which KC has decided that he loves and we have to have some as part of the BSU parties when they are playing out of town. Don't knock it until you try it. Its Yummy!! I tried salsa for the first time and it turned out pretty good. A little spicy but I have decided that I like spicy! I tried some butter nut squash too. I am so excited for that. I love it and now I just have to drain the water and heat. There tends to be a little prep work for it so it will be quick and easy. That was my longest project. I didn't even know that anything had to be pressure cooked for 90 min. It is so neat to see it all stacked on my shelves. It is so worth the effort.

Four Wheeler Fun!!

They love to ride around the tree!



Kellsie always the poser! She did something every round.



Kohnor was going to make sure Alayna was looking.



Love this. True Joy!!


The kids love to ride the four wheeler when ever they get a chance too. They are so cute to watch. I can't believe that Kohnor is actually starting to look big on it. Kellsie tends to be a little show off and we have to remind her to focus but she is doing a great job. Alayna doesn't care who is driving as long as she get to ride. She laughs and giggles as you drive her around. So cute.

First Day of Kindergarten!

We celebrated another first in August. Kohnor
started his first day of school. He was so cute.
All business getting ready and then we were of to
school. He wanted me to stay by him until they
all lined up in thier classes. He has a friend from
church that is in his class with him so they lined up
together and he didn't care if I was there anymore.
He didn't even look back. It has been an adjustment
but he really likes it. He still loves the weekends but
likes to go to school and learn. He is just getting so grown
up. I sure love him.

Happy Birthday Alayna!

So my baby girl has turned a year old! I can't believe it.

where has the time gone. She had a great birthday party.

Lots of friends and family over for a pool party. She loved

all of the attention and was so cute to watch. When she was

presents you can really tell she is a girl. She was way excited for

they clothes and got really mad when Daddy tried to take them away

so she could open another present. She really got into her smush cake.

She pulled all of the frosting balloons of and got so excited about the

project that it was up her nose too! We sure love her. I didn't get a chance

to write something on her birthday with my computer crashed but here

is her tribute. She is such a sweet and loving little girl. She is learning so

much and has such a personality. She definitly knows what she wants and

has no problem letting you know too. She loves her brother and sister and

they make her laugh all the time. We are so grateful to have her in our family.

We love you Baby Girl!!

Spagetti Please!

This is the only way she likes to eat it. ALL BY HERSELF!!
Too Cute.

All worn out!!

I took these on the trip home from Bear Lake. We had such a great time
with our friends and just relaxed and played. The weather was a little colder then
in the past but a little wind and rain didn't stop the fun. Made great memories.

The Oregon Trail Museum

In August we went to Bear Lake for a little vacation. We went with some friends and had a great time. I didn't take a lot of pictures besides the day at the museum but Casie did so I will have to still them. So the first day that we were their we went with K.C.'s Grandma and Aunt and went to the Oregon Trail Museum. It was so much fun. We took a tour and it was considered a journey across the country so we had to get supplies and a wagon then headed out. We went on an asimilated wagon ride and I really liked it. Kohnor and Kellsie didn't seem to be too thrilled with it. It was really neat and I learned a lot about pioneers. Their was an exibit out fro nt of the museum and that is where the kids had such a good time taking pictures. They are so funny.

Road Rash

So KC and I went on a date the other night and this is what we came home to. Kohnor had a little run in with the front drive way. I guess Kenzie was chasing him and he tripped and the sidewalk won the battle. He sure is a tough little guy. I guess he isn't very little anymore. I can't believe he is about to start kindergarten. He sure is handsome. I couldn't resist getting in the different faces. He has such a personality. Love you tough guy!!
