Pumpkins!!

Grandma and Papa got the kids a pumpkin for Halloween and they decided that they wanted to paint them this year! (which was the best idea I have ever heard since no one in my family but me will clean out the pumpkins. I guess they are afraid of getting dirty!!) They are now being displayed on our front porch!!

1st Day of Ballet!

The same week she started school, she started ballet classes also! She loves it and can't wait to stand on her toes!! This day they got to wear crowns and be princesses!!

1st Day of School!!

Hannah has finally started school. This picture was her very first day! I can't believe how fast they grow! She absolutely loves school and can't wait to tell me about her day when sister and I pick her up!

Obviously, I am very behind on keeping my blog updated! This was our last summer camping trip. We went to Hells Canyon and then drove into Wallowa Lake for the day. The
kids had a blast. We all went on the gondola and were feeding the chipmunks and squirrels right out of our hands!!! I am suprised the kids didn't want to take them home with them!! Next year we are going to camp there so they will have more time with the animals (especially the deer that live in the camp ground!)

Birthday Bash!


We even celebrated my 29th birthday and my dad's 55th birthday while we were camping in McCall. Hannah and Taylor got me a pinata (my first one ever) amongst other things, and we had a blast. A very memorable birthday!

Canoe Trip




Our latest camping trip was in McCall. One day we rented from canoes and went back in the mountains. It was beautiful--and a lot of work! The kids thought it was so much fun. We stopped at the end and had a picnic.

The Mouse!!

We went outside one day and we found a new furry friend....or so the kids thought! They went to get their new friend some cheese, so mommy had to pick up the creepy little thing! Oh well, the kids had a blast feeding it--luckily he hasn't came back for more cheese!
