GOING PRIVATE JANUARY 1, 2013

Due to some inappropriate and disgusting comments, going private January 1, 2013! I am appauled by the viewers out there all over the world that view our family blog.  If you view our blog and want to be invited please message me.

IPhone Pics

Brotherly love.

 Summer sends me pics to keep me posted on the kids.  Tegan FINALLY lost his first tooth, it was dangling for months.

 His birthday present from us. Dream light, doggy of course. Can you tell he was very excited?

 First day of Kindergarten.

 After the arm mended enough I finally finished my pillow.  

 Love how they all turned out.

 Snuggle up buddy.

The first snow, October 25.  Gone soon after.

 Don't think there's really room for both of them but they worked it out.

 Ethan and Isaac on Halloween.

 Apparently this was the place to be.

 Sweet.

 Sabrina was being a little silly one night.

I Get To Live In This Beautiful Place

There really are no words for how beautiful it is here.  I love it, and how my new camera can capture it so nicely.

Temples and Tombs

In 6th grade they always study Egypt and have a short program.  It is our last.  Sniff sniff.

 Isaac tried to tell me he didn't have to go but I made him cuz I wanted to go.  

 Possible lip sync.

 Belt it out buddy.

His costume and projects for Temples and Tombs.  I was surprised he went shirtless but he wanted to show off his "huge muscles."  Poor kid, so skinny but he will fill out one day, around 25.  So happy that I still have a little guy. Love this kid.

New Camera Experimenting

Fall colors are so beautiful here in Utah, even in my own backyard!

 Caesar looking for trouble.

 Nice pose Linkin.

 These two spend a lot of time trying to get to the birds that live in this tree.

 Watercolor feature.

 The last of the yellow trees in the neighbors yard.

 I loved this feature, their colors are so brilliant.  

All in all, good purchase.  Like the camera but not very purse friendly.

Pumpkin Patch

Yes we still have requests for a visit to the pumpkin patch, by McKayla this year.

 Isaac and Logan posing a "cool guy" theme with the monster pumpkin.

 Very cool looking guy.

 It was a cute patch with a lot of fun things for kids to play on and explore and animals to look at.

Had to hit the Corn Maze, it was a rushed trip through.  McKayla was suddenly in need of her inhaler with all the hay and stuff around.  

Glad the big kids still like little kid stuff, I miss those things.

Happy 16th Sabrina

Sabrina turned 16 in October!  What? 

My sweet, beautiful little girl, and absolutely lovable from day one!  She is now almost as tall as me and has legs as long as the day is!  Still sweet, beautiful and lovable, depending on the day.  :)

 McKayla and I thought it would be fun to get a Bieber theme going since she despises him and would get a kick out of it.  

 It was fun and she enjoyed him in spite of the hatred. :)

So proud of her and love her so much, couldn't live without her thoughtfulness and love.  

She of course refused any and all pics but she really was there.

Love you Sabrina!

SILLY AND SAD

 SUPER DOG CEASAR AFTER HIS SHOWER, VERY PROUDLY WEARING HIS NEMO CAPE. 

 SCOOBY WAITING FOR SHAGGY TO COME HOME.

I NOTICED HIS EYE LOOKED FUNNY AND FIGURED HE GOT STUNG BY A BEE.

 NOT LONG AFTER HIS FACE STARTED TO SWELL SO SAB CALLED THE VET AND WE GAVE HIM SOME BENADRYL, 75MG.

I TRIED TO PUT A COLD RICE BAG ON IT, IT LASTED A FEW MINUTES.

 BY THE TIME WE WENT TO THE VET A FEW HOURS AFTER HE WAS FIRST STUNG HE LOOKED EVEN WORSE THAN THIS PICTURE. HIS EYES WERE SWOLLEN SHUT AND HIS SNOUT WAS HUGE AND HE HAD HIVES FROM HEAD TO TOE.  THEY GAVE HIM A STEROID SHOT TO HELP WITH THE REACTION AND SENT US HOME AND SAID IT WAS A GOOD THING WE BROUGHT HIM IN.  THE NEXT DAY HIS SWELLING WAS GOING DOWN BUT HE STILL HAD SOME HIVES. BY THAT NIGHT HIS HIVES WERE BACK AGAIN AND BADLY.  THEN HE STARTED THROWING UP, I WON'T GO INTO DETAIL WITH THAT, BUT HE BASICALLY NEVER DIGESTED ANYTHING HE ATE ALL DAY.  SO HE ATE GRASS ALL NIGHT TO CALM HIS STOMACH AND THEN THAT WOULD COME BACK OUT TOO.  POOR BABY LOOKED TERRIBLE THE NEXT MORNING SO BACK TO  THE VET WE WENT FOR A STRONGER DOSE OF BENADRYL, A STEROID, AND AN ANTI NAUSEA.  HE SLEPT MOST OF THE DAY BUT WAS BACK  TO HIMSELF BY DINNER.  WE  FIGURED HE HAD TO HAVE GOTTEN STUNG BY A SWARM OF BEES AND WE MIGHT WANT TO LOOK INTO AN EPI-PEN. 

BESIDES THE DOG KENNEL....

I'VE BEEN WATCHING MY FLOWERS GROW.

SABRINA HELPED ME PAINT MY PANTRY DOOR THIS GREAT COLOR, IT LOOKS DARKER IN THIS PICTURE THAN IT REALLY IS.

MAKING CURTAINS FOR THE KITCHEN, TO GO WITH THE DOOR.

MAKING CURTAINS FOR MY OFFICE.

 BEFORE.

 AFTER

 THE LIVING ROOM

 A CLOSER LOOK, I WAS TOTALLY SCARED I WOULD HATE THESE WITH AS MUCH WORK AS THEY WERE TO MAKE BUT I WAS SURPRISED HOW MUCH I LOVE THEM. WHEW!

THEN I HAD SURGERY ON MY ELBOW FOR AN OLD INJURY THAT JUST GOT TO BE TOO MUCH.  SWOLLEN FINGERS, THE SPLINT WENT HALFWAY UP THE TOP OF MY ARM. VERY UNCOMFORTABLE AND I BETTER BE GOOD AS NEW OR BETTER. IT COMES OFF TOMORROW SO WILL GET TO SEE HOW BAD THE SCAR IS AND IF I CAN EVEN MOVE IT. MY HAIR HAS HAD A NICE BREAK AND I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DO MUCH MORE THAN FOUNDATION AND MASCARA. THEY REALLY KNOW HOW TO BRING A WOMAN DOWN.

WHEN I'M NOT THE ONE ARMED BANDIT ANYMORE I WILL FINISH THE PILLOWS FOR THE COUCH TO TIE  THE KITCHEN AND THE LIVING ROOM IN.
