Nathan's Birthday

Well, back in September on the 16th, Nathan turned 3! YAY! I am just now posting pictures.... lovely :) Monster truck cake as ordered

Everyone who came to visit

Dad's present, along with the batman costume he got.

We were so happy to see Darcy and Tashia and their new baby Rhyler! Thanks for coming to visit us while you were up here from Texas!

end of summer

This was a while back when we went up with friends to a ranch and Steve and Nik and Ryan went hunting. Nicole and Nathan enjoyed playing with Kolby and Ryker and climbing through the rocks. We also saw some deer. Too bad Dad didn't get one.... yet :)

YELLOWSTONE!

We went with the Saureys to Yellowstone National Park on Labor Day! It was very fun for us since it was the first time Steve and I had been there together, and the kids loved seeing the geysers and the animals!

the very end of Old Faithful!

Good ol Summer time!

This summer we have done many things together!Played outside in the back yard with friends...



We went to family reunions

Climbed in a cave!

Swam in the pool at grandmas

We went to Gem Lake with Brecca, Brooklynn and Bryce

We went to Heise Hot Springs and went down the water slide!

Nicole went off the diving board by herself!

She's good at "doggie paddle" and she can do back float too.

She was excited to say that she can swim in DEEP water!

Father's Day BBQ at grandpa's

Lets see how many kids we can fit on the trampoline :)

And, the older kids will have the idea of moving the trampoline near the second story balcony and jumping off of it! And who knows, maybe a younger girl will follow the example of her uncle Jack and jump off as well..... Yes, that would be Nicole. I am glad we walked away without any broken bones :)

And Nicole says to Aunt Tonya, "At least I tried it."

Yes, well this isn't like eating your food at dinner time!
