Head injury at the park!

On Tuesday Colton had an accident where he slipped and hit his head on a rock causing him to have a big cut on the back of his head. He was a trooper and never cried even when he had to get, we think and will know for sure when we get the staples out, 7 stitches, and 14 staples. I say we will know for sure because we can only see 7 staples. He is doing really well now and he is even brave enough to touch the staples. Attached are some pictures. Sorry for the Unpleasantness of some of the pictures. :)

Random Family Fun!

I think that I need to have Trent take over blogging duty for me. I can't seem to get around to posting. But I would someday like to use this blog as a journal for my kids to see what they have done so we must keep going. :)

Since school started we are into the day to day routine that doesn't really change a lot. There are moments though that I look around and think I sure am lucky to have these little stinkers in my life. Trent had a fortune cookie yesterday that said something about being surrounded by riches and treasures and I think we really are already. My family is the best treasure that has been given to me.


This is Claire's first Christmas! She loved all the sparkly things to grab and eat.


Christmas with the Rowley clan is always fun and exciting! Even my nephew Jeff is a good sport!


We love to decorate Dad's resting place with some holiday cheer. What a wonderful tradition for our kids to have. Mom is in the car with baby Claire.


Colton introduced his walrus at the zoo for his school project. He worked super hard on it!


With what little snow fall we have had Trent used to make a sled track down our back steps. The kids will spend hours back there!
