What a fun mess!!

It was the Taylor's turn for FHE and we made ginger bread houses.

We are so PROUD

We all sat down to the table (the 4 of us) and started eating dinner last night. At about three bites in Bailey said "Hey we need to say the prayer, fold your arms." Bryan and I smiled at each other and bowed our heads. Bailey said the whole prayer from start to finish without any help. Her prayer went something like this, "Heavenee Fadder, thank you for today, pees bless da food, thanks for my friends, pees bless da food......amen!" I started to cry and Bryan could not stop grinning at her. What a PROUD moment to be a parent.

What We're ThAnKfUL For

These two are such Hams! We are so grateful for:

Our Families, our health, our jobs, our beautiful home, our Love we share and awesome neighbors.

Flu Shots

Bryan took the girls to get their flu shots yesterday. Brinklee took it like a champ but Bailey acted like they cut her leg off :) Bryan said the staff at the Dr. office were all laughing when they saw Bailey dragging her leg behind her as she walked out the leave. What a silly goose.

BOO...MOO

I was surprised how long she kept it on!

Lovely

Trunk or treating

WOW

My crazy fam. Can you guess who the winner was?

Donuts on a string....Nathan won!

Painting

Trevor's master piece

We had a fun Halloween this year. We started our FIRST Bingham Halloween Party where we played games and made spooky treats. The winners of the costume contest were......Bryan in 1st place, Nathan took 2nd, and with Trevor taking a close 3rd.

Corn Maze

We went to Black Island Farmers for the first time ever this year and it was so fun. Our fearless Brinklee LOVED the slides. Bryan, myself and our two girls got separated from the group when we went through the "Bella" corn maze. Bailey thought it was pretty funny when we kept running into dead ends. The "Edward" corn maze was great too. We managed to all stay together and got out pretty quick using our trusty map.

Halloween Jokes

Why don't you ever see skeletons on roller coasters?
They don't have the guts

Why are Ghosts bad at lying?
You can see right through them

Why don't skeletons like to go to parties?
They have no body to dance with

Colorado here we come!

on our way home with their suckers

First off I want to give a BIG thanks Bryan because he was so calm between a lot of screaming, and me getting car sick.

So we thought it would be better to drive to Colorado (61/2hr) at night so the girls would just sleep, well that didn't happen. Brinklee is getting more teeth and bailey said the car seat hurt her most of the time. So 8 1/2 hrs later and pulling over for a quick nap we made it. Bryan is a great driver. I always feel safe when he drives.

My list of things I hate about driving on the freeway: Driving at night you can't see if there is an animal running toward you wanting to kill it self on the front of your car, driving in the rain and having to pass big rigs, when someone tailgates you until you can pull over and then when they get in front of you they slow down, trying to find the car treats because you don't want to turn on your inside lights fear of going blind, windshield wipers don't work quite right, and last but not least driving when your tired.

We had a lot of fun with Ryan and Tiffany. Fisher is a little/big cutie. We didn't see as many elk as we have in past trips, but it was still a majestic experience to see then so close. I love the shopping at Estes Park. Tiffany and I splurged and bought ourselves some fun head bands. I got some great clothes at the local climbing store, and Tiffany got an awesome bracelet. The way home wasn't as bad. We tried going during the day so the girls could look outside to keep them occupied (but not like Wyoming has anything) We have decided to make it a yearly tradition so your welcome to join us next year.

What blessings I have

Brinklee is 1

I can't believe it! One year ago I was bending down to put in Wolverine for Bryan and I to watch and my water broke. I immediately looked at Bryan and said "it think my water just broke" I ran to the bathroom and sure enough that's what had happened. Bryan was so cute he had just made himself two BLT sandwiches but he was so concerned about getting me to the Hospital he wanted to leave them. I told him to go eat he had time. The Hospital was only two minutes away so after Bryan finished his food we grabbed our bags and headed out the door. I turned around and smiled at Bryan when I noticed he was carrying Bailey's diaper bag not my Hospital bag. He was so flustered it was cute. The fun times.

HoLEY cOw

So it's been way too long since my last post and i apologize to all my readers (like I have any) Life goes on and at the Fife home a lot has happened. Brinklee will be turning ONE this weekend and is a hoot! She has been walking since 10 months, loves to be with mom.... and Justin lol. She has two teeth and loves to wake up Bailey in the morning. Bug is getting big. She has started to test the waters and is teaching me patience. She loves all her little neighbor friends that come over to see and feed the chickens (we got four more by the way). As for me and Bryan, after feeling like all we do is work we have tried to make a conscious effort to spend each weekend we have together very fulfilling. It has been a fun summer and will be a great fall. Here's what we have been up to
