Fall update!

ImageImageMy mom wanted a picture of her family so we did some with just the 6 kids and the parents, they turned out pretty good!
ImageKhloe is getting so big, she is 5 months already. Khloe is such a happy baby, she rarely cries and smiles all the time.
ImageHunter wants to be just like his dad, he loves to be outside, loves guns and knives and he made a few bows and arrows this summer. He also loves when his dad comes home from pheasant hunting and he gets to help cut up the birds, then eat them the next day.
ImageGracie loves to play with Kennadee's dolls and purses and also loves to get into my make-up and lotion.

ImageHalloween was so much fun, we had good weather, and Gracie trick or treated like a champ, she didnt want to miss one house.
Image
ImageImageGracie and Hunter had alot of fun riding these fourwheelers all summer long, and we have just the right town and lawn for it, they would ride to the neighbors for a visit.

Baby Khloe is finally here!

Image
ImageKhloe Rose was born on June 7 and weighed 6lbs-4oz at 1:37pm. I am so glad she is finally here, I contracted for days wondering when they would get close together and hard, it was such a tease, there were many nights I thought we would go into the hospital but didn't. It was alittle longer labor than my others, we figured her head was turned sideways making it hard for me to progress because when she finally turned her head I instantly went complete and she fell out on her own, Khloe delivered her own head, the doctor, luckily was in the room and he dove right in barehanded and delivered Khloe the rest of the way. We didn't stay in the hospital very long, but our care was great and we have had awesome care at home as well with many people bringing us dinner, thanks everyone!
ImageImageImageImageImageImageKennadee is now 7, she is a big help to me and is growing up way too fast. She has lost 6 teeth and we cut her hair about 6in which im not really loving anymore, I hope it grows back fast. Hunter is 4 and loves to ride his new bike and be outside all the time either doing something with his dad and the horses or playing with his sisters. Gracie also loves to be outside all day long. She is so funny, she has her own funny language and loves to dance. They all love to hold and help with their new sister, hopefully the newness wears off soon!

Family Pictures 2010!

Image

I now know why people only do family pictures once a year or not even that often, they are a pain in the butt, especially with little kids, it is almost impossible to get 5 people all looking at the camera and smiling and holding still to get a good picture. I am very grateful to have such a great sister-in-law who was willing to take our pictures for us, thanks Katie, your awesome!

ImageToday I did my very first race, it was a biathlon, only I just did the cycling part(I hate to run, after biking a little while I thought I would try running figuring it wouldn't be so bad cause I had gotten a little in shape but apparently biking doesn't make running any easier, I was sucking wind after a block or so) so I had my friend Weez do the running part. We had a lot of fun! Stacie and Ryan are much tougher than me and did the whole thing themself and did an awesome job! Ryan took first in the men's group!
Image
Image
I let Kennadee talk me into letting her sale cotton candy, it was fun to see them get excited when customers would pull up. Thank goodness I made all the money back it cost me to rent the machine and stuff!ImageWe went camping to Twin Lakes with the Godfrey's, it was awesome. I did a terrible job of taking pictures, I relied on Katie to take a bunch for me instead. I have the best in-laws, we always have a great time together.

Image
ImageWe went to lagoon, on Nucor's lagoon day, it was a blast, we left Gracie home, and everything was free thanks to nucor!
ImageHunter and Kennadee have really enjoyed having a lawn this summer, they have played outside in the water alot, considering we don't have a/c, playing in the water is very nice.
ImageTroy raced this year in the pony express race and won it, him and his brother Scott, it was a very close race!
Image
ImageWe love going down to Salt Lake and visiting my sister, they have awesome splash parks, and Targets in all four directions within 10 minutes of Trudy's house, I'm so jealous.

ImageHunter, Kennadee and Gracie love to ride the fourwheelers and Grandma's house!
ImageGracie is getting so big, she loves playing outside with the kids.

My new Best Friend!

Image

ImageI never thought I would say this but, " I love to bike". I know what some of you thinking "I hate bikers, they are always in the way," belive me until two weeks ago, I thought the same thing. It wasn't until some fun, cute girls invited me to go on a ride with them that changed my mind. The first ride was not to hot, they were all in shape and had nice bikes, me on the other hand was out of shape and rode a mountain bike(they are not the same as road bikes, I soon found out), I could not keep up, it sucked! So, I took a huge leap and got me a bike, helmet, gloves, padded shorts(very much needed) and water bottle and tried it again, it was awsome. Luckily, the girls were so kind to let me try it again with them, the second time was much better, I could keep up with the pack. Now I'm addicted, I'm always wanting to bike to my mom's or looking for a good route as I'm driving. I like biking for 3 reasons: 1. it's good exercise 2. it has given me some new friends 3. it gives me a good break from the house and kids!

Family Fun-Fishing!

ImageEver since my sister bought her son a fishing pole for his birthday my kids have been bugging us to take them fishing so we finally did. We went to the fish farm in Amalga, it was awesome, my kind of fishing, the fish are big and bite often, and the pond is small and clean so your line dosen't get caught in a bunch of weeds. However, it is not cheap and the guy working there speaks Russian finding anything out is quit difficult, but we all had a lot of fun! It was so nice for Troy and I to do something fun together and give Troy a break from working on the house, this place is a never ending project. I didn't realize when I married Troy how handy he is, he is a great electrician, plumber, sheet rocker, mechanic, and he even puts in sprinkling systems and our yard. On top of all that, he is an amazing husband and dad!

ImageGracie is getting so big and so fast, she is crawling, eating table food, and pulling herself up to everything. Before I know it she'll be walking then talking and then asking me for my car keys. Where does the time go?
