Shane Advancing to a Bear


After a lot of work, on both our parts, Shane has finally received his Wolf and can now advance!!! I am proud of his effort and am glad that we are moving on the next level!!! I am so thankful for his scout leader who kicked my rear into shape and got me going!! YAY Shane!! We are proud of you!

I wanna be just like my Sissy!!


We came out in the living room to find Jenna being a big girl and (acting-like) reading like her big sis!! I couldn't help it. I love this picture!!! Soooo funny!! She asks us, "Where is Sis?" at least 5 times per day while the kids are at school!! LOVE IT!
Playing some volleyball in Harkness Canyon!! Jana and Kryssie!!

Go Bryson!!!

All of us waiting to see if the ball was actually going to go over this time!!



Me hanging out with Jenna!! Filthy baby!


Seriously, the cutest couple ever!!~~ Travis' Parents!





So funny!!! Jenna got her pants caught on the motorcycle trailer and they ripped all the way down!! It was awesome!! We left it like that all day!! I didn't think I wanted to ruin another pair of pants!! Now she can match her Uncle Troy. I am thinking he has a pair just like these with a matching tear!

Labor Day Weekend




A couple of pics of us camping over Labor Day!! We had so much fun!!! Even Jenna did great!! The kids wanted to go every weekend until winter, oh yeah, it would seem that winter is almost here with all this cold weather!!!



Travis' dad is the best!! He loves to play the guitar and sing.....All Jenna would do was STARE at him!! What a great memory!! We are lucky to have such great parents!!

Bryson's New Back Pack!

So, I take Bryson out to pick out a backpack tonight. He had his heart set on a camo backpack with a wallet...I know, it is all about the wallet!! So, we get to Sears and we can't find it. I thought for sure we'd be ok to get it the next time we were out, in hopes he would find one he liked better, but when we got there...nothing.....I could see the tears brimming. So, I told him I would make sure he found one he loved just as much. We were walking out and off to the side, in a weird random spot, there it was!! The backpack!! Someone probably hid it so they could come back later..............too bad for them..Hey Man, You snooze you LOSE!! haha. On the way home, he tells me, "You are the bestest MOM ever, I just love you amphibian"....so I am like, "What's amphibian." I know what it is, just wondering why he said it in that context. He says, "You Know, the highest number there is" So I say, "Oh, you mean infinite" HE says, "Yeah, that is what I said, amphibian" OH man, it was all I could do to not laugh right there in his face. He is so funny. ....Makes me smile!! Love my Bryson!

We are almost done with Madison's room!! I don't have a before picture, but since this house is new, just picture a very plain and boring room, and then you have this super cute one!! The polka dots are vinyl (my new favorite thing) My mom came and helped hang the chair rail~she is the new BOB VILLA!! There are still a few things to do, like have Travis hang the mirror and magnetic board~~~~I covered her name with scrap paper and modge podge!! YAY!! She is happy!

Bryson's Bike Crash!

So, tonight while Bryson was riding his bike over a jump that the neighbor kid has, he crashed and hit his forhead on the road.....Of course he came home crying and when his cousin asked him what he did, this is what he said, "Well, I was riding my bike and suddenly my helmet was gone and when I crashed I hit my head." Suddenly?? That is his new word!!! It cracks me up. Travis and I have really been pushing the helmet thing!! Just thought it was funny what he said and if I remember, I will post a picture of the goose egg!!!

Bryson Kingergarten Program

This is Bryson, with his friends, Keegan and Shannon! This is the day they had their kindergarten program!! It was so cute, and cute to see all the kids, including mine, wave to their parents right in the middle of a song!! It is very important to make contact with the audience!!!

Pinewood Derby!!!!


So, Travis got a little carried away.........I had to keep asking him if it was HIS pinewood derby, or Shane's?? ha ha. I think they should have a Derby just for Dads!! His car was successful, he won 2 races and lost 2!!! Go Shane!!!
