School Pictures

Yesterday after school:

MaKenna - "I have something you want mom"
Me - "O, you do huh"
MaKenna - "Yes, I know you've been waiting FOR-EVER for these and just dying to see them"
Me (somewhat curious about what I have been missing out on for so long) "What is it honey"
MaKenna - "ME" as she handed me her school pics.

Since I'm sure y'all have been waiting FOREVER as well - here they are.


Kyler - Kindergarten


MaKenna - 3rd Grade


Jake - 5th Grade

2 more additions...

In an attempt to settle MaKenna and Daisy down we found Daisy a friend - or two. MaKenna has been worried and upset that Daisy was lonely and wanted her mom. Steve and I went to Pueblo today and picked up Copper and Moon. I don't really know what we're getting into. We're crazy I'm sure of it!

Meet Moon (she's been exposed")


Meet Copper



The Ladies

Meet Daisy

Jake, MaKenna and Kyler would like to introduce you to the newest member of their farm... Daisy.

The kids even helped build the pen. They had a blast and love helping out on the property. Daisy is doing well, but is lonely. We're going to see about getting her a friend.

Mud Brigade

MaKenna and Jake did their first "Warrior Dash" race today. It was called the Mud Brigade. The kids course was one mile with several obstacles and a mud pit to finish it off. They had a blast and can't wait to do it again next year. Jake wants to do the big race which is a 5K.

Here are some pics...

Back to School

Well, it's that time of the year again - moms are happy and kids are sad. Well, except for my kids – they are more excited than me I think. School has begun.

Jake and MaKenna started on Tuesday. Kyler started today! My baby, I mean big boy is in kindergarten.

Kyler rode the bus today and was super excited that today was the day he got to go to school.

Birthday pictures

OK, I know I still owe ya'll pictures from camping, but here are a couple pictures from my birthday. The pizza oven has been in progress for a year... it's finally done, except for a piece of stone that we need to put on top.

What a world we live in...

If someone ever loses faith or hope in Heavenly Father, they only have to look around our beautiful world to know the amazing power and love he has.
Here are some pics from our camping trip last week.
