Christmas Tree Hunting

I know this is late but, this year decided to go cut down a tree for christmas. Thanksgiving we day we loaded up and took Caleb's brother a dad with us to go find the perfect tree. As we were walking through the snow I was waiting for that beam of light to shine on the perfect tree (christmas vacation style). It was fun. Keanon wasn't with us.

Crazy life!!

These past couple of weeks things have been a little crazy. My monther in-law, sister in-law, and I decided to do the Bonneville Craft Boutique. I guess it is a really big on here in Idaho Falls. So for the last couple of weeks I have been working on crafts. I decided to only do a few of my favorites that seem to sell well, but a lot of them. I am excited to see how things go. Needless to say the laundry and house work are pilling up. I am getting so excited for christmas. As soon as this is over I am going to get started decorating. YEAH!!!

Caleb's Costume

Caleb came home from work and left is work clothes on and put these disgusting bubba teeth in. He was a hill billy. It was so funny to see peoples reactions to his teeth. One lady asked him if those were his real teeth.

Kids Costumes

Halloween Fun

Mummy Dogs

I made these mummy dogs for a halloween party.

While I was away on a sisters getaway caleb was home with the kids and this is what I came home to!!

crazy hair!

I had to post these pictures of Hailee. I thought her hair looked like the grinch when he was a baby!! She much cuter than the grinch though.

Maddy's birthday party

Birthday Fun

Well yes it has been awhile since I posted, but here is a few things that have been going on. since we moved Maddy has made many friends so for her birthday party we invited them over for some fun.

We did it!

We got moved. It was a little crazy but it went smoothly. Now is the fun part, unpacking. I got the kids registered and they started school today. Yeah!!!! They were so bored the last couple of days they were driving me nuts. The neighbors here have been great. We had about 6 men come over and help us unload the trucks and the surrounding neighbors have all stopped by and introduced themselves. I think we are really going to like it up here although I will miss everyone in Jerome.

We are moving

Well this summer has been crazy. Now that the kids are of to school I have been busy doing crafts for our Fall Boutique. Wednesday night we got some good news. Caleb was accepted for aJob that he applied for in July. So we are moving to Rexburg next weekend. So I have 5 days to pack. We are going to be living in a home of a couple that lives here in Jerome. They have a house in Rexburg that they have been trying to sell, so we are going to house swap unitl he can sell our homes. Things are going to be crazy but we are excited. I am really going to try and be better at this blogging stuff.

Our little Cheerleader!!

This week was the County Fair and Maddy's cheer group was in the parade and they also performed at the fair. I do have to say that Maddy is the cutest one out there and she really gets into her moves.

Okay!!

I just realized today that it has been a long time since I posted anything. This summer has been crazy and it seems that whenever we do something fun I don't have my camera. I am going to try harder to keep up on this blogging stuff.

Lagoon

We took the kids to Lagoon a couple of weeks ago and had a blast. Keanon thought he was to big to go on some of the rides but he was being a nice big brother.

Maddy's Hospital Experience

Madisyn was admitted to the hospital on Monday. She was diagnosed with a severe case of pneumonia. She had a bad cough for about a week, but no other symptoms so I didn't really think anything of it. Then on Thursday she started getting a really high fever. So we fought that for 3 days then on Saturday it finally broke and I thought it was over. Well, about 1:00 Sunday morning she woke me up coughing really hard and her fever was back. So Monday morning I took her to the doctor and they found the pneumonia and admitted her. She was released yesterday. She wanted to come home so bad. The hospital really isn't fun. Last night she was complaining, that it hurt to breath. So I ran her back to the doctor and they did some more x-rays and they couldn't see that it showed signs of it getting worse. So they sent us home. The pain did go away quickly but she had a couple more episodes last night. She is feeling better today but we will see. And on top of all of this Caleb is gone for 2 weeks for Annual Army Training, so he couldn't just leave and come home, so I had to deal with all of this myself. I am thankful that she is feeling better and that we caught it in time. I know 2 people who have died of penumonia within the past 2 years. It is a scary thing. I wish I would have remembered my camera because she was the cutest patient, but it was the last thing on my mind. I am so thankful for my family and friends who stepped in to help me.

My friend Jamie took some pictures of Hailee yesterday. It was so fun. She does such a good job. These were suppose to be Hailee's 1 year pictures. Now she is 16 months and I am finally getting around to get them done.

Baby Blue Eyes!

I never win anything.

I am one of those people who never win anything, but I see my luck starting to changing. A couple of weeks ago, Caleb and I were in Boise at the mall and they were having a drawing for a new mustang so both thought what the heck. We both filled out a entry form and today I got a message on my phone saying that I had a won a free trip to vegas with airfare and hotel included from that drawing. Now this is not my dream vacation but I will take it. Funny thing is the guy said that they always draw 2 names just incase the first one doesn't want to take it. Well my name was drawn first and Caleb's was drawn second. I guess we were just meant to take a short vacation :) Now I am hoping to win the mustang and the HGTV Dream Home!!!

Playing at the park

Because it was such a nice day, we decided to go on a bike ride to the park for family home evening.

Mom, watch me!

Keanon is really the crazy one. He can do all sorts of tricks on the tramp. He wanted me to take pictres of him doing all sorts of stuff. Only could catch a few.
