Gasp! A New Post!

Jeremy's first Deer! He finally got one, a two point, but to his credit his first one is as big as my biggest ever was! Way to go Jer! Boston loved the head the two days it was in the garage, he would go stand by the door to the garage and say "MOO! MOO!" and want to go and pet it...Needless to say it was only kept around for a couple of days...

Ok, we have been MIA, but I am going to do a little update. Jayden has started 1st grade in July, and Kelsi started Preschool in September. Dance started up in September as well for the girls and they love it. We started our shed in September as well, it is still being finished, but hopefully a couple more weeks and it will be usable...For those that don't know, my brother Eric moved in with us and is working here, getting ready for a mission. So, he has been a lot of help finishing the shed. We took a short trip to Oregon in August to visit the family, it was a lot of fun, I need to post of few of those pics too....but for now here are a couple of the most recent pics of us... Wheeler Farm, the kids were feeding the chickens...Always fun..

We went for a hike up the canyons with Susan (not pictured). Gathered Leaves, (Grandma they made books for you to look at when you come next.) and took a little lunch we had a ball, despite what Boston looks like, he was just mad we stopped to take a picture.

Halloween 2009, Hermonie, a Dinosaur, and a Horse....So Cute!

Sooo, here is the story behind the pumpkin....Jeremy commissioned Susan into doing a "Suprise" for me. When we had our pumpkin carving activity, Jeremy got online and found a pattern and asked Susan if she would carve this and suprise me....Apparently I must be a Twilight Fan, and a Team Jacob fan (hahahaha maybe a little). However, I was suprised and I loved it! Thanks to Jeremy and Susan for my Pumpkin!!!

The Homestead!

We did a mini vacation with the cousins! It was sooo fun! The kids went Horseback riding, and we did the Alpine slide and of course swimming at the hotel pool! So fun! Carrie, Kelsi, Crew, Griff, Dax, Boston, Jayden, and Brianne!

Jayden is all saddled up!

Kelsi was in Heaven!

At the End!

At the start! over 150 riders!

Yea! we finished!

OK! Here it is proof that I participated in an organized sporting event! Really though, we finished the course in 1 hr 53 min. It was a 25 mile RIDE. Not a race (yes, I am bummed that I didn't have an official number, but I did get a t-shirt!) but it was sooo fun and a great memory! We rode it with our good friends Adri and Marty! I even kept up with Jeremy! Thanks to Grandma Nancy who came and helped with the kids so we could do it!

Eric Graduates!

I know, I know a current blog entry! We made the drive again, and this time was a little wierd for me, so I am posting this thinking of my "Little" Brother and realizing that he has grown into my "Big" little brother. I was so happy we could go and support him on his big day! Congrats Eric! The "little kids" are all grown up!!! Andy and I- can you believe he is alomost 13?? A teenager, wierd. But he is an awsome uncle and he is very quickly going to be my big little brother also. Stop growing Andrew!
Shelley and I...Love ya Shel! She had a "Sleepover" with Jayden and painted toes and watched a movie! So fun!

I had to show you what I meant by "Big" little brother...He played Rugby this fall and got some "guns"!

The Sea Lion Caves! So fun! It was rainy, so we didn't spend a whole lot of time outside, but we did go down 200 ft in the mountain to look at the sea lion's cave!

Happy Graduation! So fun!!!

Life Around Here

It has been absolutly BUSY here. What with, you know I really can't pinpoint it. I have noticed my blogging dropped off about the time Boston started walking. So that is my reason. For those that don't get to be around my little guy all the time....He loves the toilet, here is a list of items I have found and had to retireve, Diego helecopter, Pacifiers, bath toys, and lots of TP. He can open the doors, climb on the table, couch and chairs. I have also found that most of my silverware is dissapearing, come to find out he can reach into the drawer and he places it in a small gap between the dishwasher and counter (visible to only those that are 2 ft. tall...). I LOVE when the weather is decent, he can explore out in the backyard all he wants. Unfortunatley, the yo-yo weather here makes it really hard for him to have to stay indoors on the cold, snowy, wet days. On those days, he will stand at the back door and cry... a lot like a dog. Aside from all the trouble he can find, he has picked up a new hobby, Basketball. You think I a crazy, but the kid will point out a hoop and ball anywhere. We have a small hoop that he will play with non stop. All this shooting hoops has developed quite the arm for him. He now throws whatever he can, whenever he can....restaruants beware. He threw his cup across the table last week (sorry Erica). So, back to my point of I have been busy, I often look back at the day, and go what did I do??? Anyway, The picture is so cute I thought it would go well with the post...I was changing the laundry and the phone rang. I ran upstairs to answer it and when I got back down, Boston had climbed into the dryer and was sitting on the wet laundry...
