They are doing a give away! So spread the word...

Playing at the school with lots of updates below.

Yesterday I took the two littles to the school by our house

to play. It's where Kamrielle goes to school and she has

been wanting to learn to do the monkey bars. Well she

still needs some practice but it was a nice warm day for

October and I'm sure it is one of the last for the season

and we took advantage of it.

They had a lot of fun and used up a lot of energy!

Carder loved all the balls

Kamrielle posing

Our neighbors who also live close to the school drove

by and stopped to play for a little while too.

These boys are true cowboys!

Kamrielle enjoyed playing with them

and Lisa there mom was a great player with Carder.

She is his nursery leader and he's new and so it was

good for him to get used to her some more.

I should of gotten a picture of the two of them.

This is Utah, Kamrielle, and Riggin.

Caden's first Deer

Caden's deer hunt was last weekend. As you can see

he was successful and happy! He got his first deer.

I say 1st because I'm sure there will be many more.

He loves to go hunting with his dad. They had a good time

and I'm glad it did not take a long time. He got his deer

on the first day that evening. It was in 27. For all you people

that don't know where 27 is it is past Alpine.

I'm looking forward to making some vegetable beef stew

with the meat. That's about all I like with the deer. But

Caden loves deer steaks! Vinnie cooks them up like

chicken fried steak and that is his favorite. In fact

that is what he wanted for his Birthday dinner this year.

Way to go Caden! Very proud of you! I must brag on him

a little bit about the great football season he had this

year too! He did awesome and we enjoyed going to

every one of his games! Now he is trying out Wrestling.

Birthday dinner at the graveyard

On August 29th it was Melissa's Birthday and I thought it

would be nice to spend a little time at her grave.

Vinnie and Caden were gone out of town hunting or

something can't remember that far back so it was just

me and the two little kids. We picked up some DQ and

had a picnic on a blanket next to my sisters graves.

Here is a picture of Melissa's and Courney's graves.
This is my first experience at taking a picture myself. I see
that people do it all the time but its kinda hard. My camera
is bulky so we attempted several times and heres what we got.
I love my sweet kids and cherish this memory with them.

First day of School

Here's Kamrielle on her first day of school.

She is a big Kindergartner! She is absolutely

loving it and looks forward to it every day!

It has been so long that we just got her first

report card on Fri. and she did very well.

I was not planning to start her this year as

she just turned 5 a month before school started

but she was ready and eager to learn and so

far doing good. I was secrectly hoping she not

do well so that I could keep her back but so far

she is going in all the right directions. She gets

a homework packet every Monday and has to

turn it in on Fridays. Well as soon as she gets home

on Monday the first thing she wants to do=Homework.

And she completes it that day.

She adores her younger brother so much and insisted

that he take a picture with her. After several attempts

this is the best one we got!

Caden is now a big 7th grader (Junior High)and I did not get his

picture before leaving that day. He goes out the door around

7:15 every morning. Kamrielle's starts at 8:45. So we get Caden

off and then concentrate on getting Kamrielle ready.

Caden had a great report card too for 1st quarter. Straight A's

with one A+. He is growing up and a lot more responsible

these days. I don't have to remind him this year to comb hair,

brush teeth, put deodorant on, etc, etc.

It must be a Junior High thing?

The rain was nice why it lasted. I thought it was a pretty
good summer for moisture. Along with it comes beautiful
rainbows and this one was a double rainbow.

Our annual fun in the sun before school starts

We always spend a week in the valley before school starts

to play, swim, and mostly to get school clothes.

We stayed at Marcy's some and with my parents.

Marcy spotted Carder stacking her jars and luckily they

are not the breakable kind but we thought it was

pretty smart of him to put the largest on bottom followed

by the smallest on top.

Here's what the boys are found doing most of the time!

That and swimming. My kids get there share of it when

we come down. Kamrielle always does a session of swim

lessons each summer but she gets more out of this week

here swimming than any lesson. Somehow I did not

get pictures of any swimming.

I love to get a visit in with my grandparents too!

I want my kids to know there great-grandparents as well.

We always have a nice visit and they enjoyed the kids too.

My grandma saw what a busy-body Carder is.

I have to really watch him at there house as it is not childproof.

Its been another year already...

Wow these Birthdays come and go too fast.

It seems like I just posted her 30th.

Even though the time has gone by fast

the memories are still so close to my heart.

I love this big smile out of her in this picture.

She certainly is beautiful and I miss her lots.

I think this is one of my very favorite!

She was sassy and tuff on the outside

but soft and sweet on the inside.

I remember lots about Melissa and I can still hear

her voice and remember what she sounded like.

She had lots of friends and loved to be with them

She loved her family and all the babies!

I wish she were hear to hold mine.

But even though I can't see her

I know she is close by and

I can't wait to see her again.

Happy Birthday Melissa!

15 Years Today!

Today is our 15 year Anniversary! Yaaayyy!

It has gone by fast! But it has been a wonderful 15 yrs.

Looking forward to many more!

Could I just have that glowing, wrinkle free face back though?

Nah, I guess its ok. Vinnie loves to look at my smile

wrinkles around my eyes. He loves them he says.

I hope he continues to love them as they get deeper.

We wanted to do something spectacular for our 15th! Well as

my life has gone so far...my plan does not ever work.

For our 10 year Kamrielle was just a 6 week old baby and

now for our 15 year. I'm 4 months pregnant. So there goes

my wish of being in super spectacular shape and going on some

beach type getaway. Maybe in a couple years...

But my sweet husband did come up with a getaway on his own

and we are heading out of town this weekend!

I am so looking forward to it! My family is watching our kids

and this will be I think the first time since Carder was born.

We have come a long way from this early family photo with

just Caden. Now with the 4th on its way. Wow!

Guess we will have to update family photos again next year.

Happy Birthday to my Sister!

Today is Marcy's Birthday and we all wanted to wish her

a Happy Day today! Kamrielle chose this picture because

she said she is giving you a Birthday kiss just for you!

Thanks for being a wonderful Sister & Aunt! You are amazing

with your many talents and giving heart! You deserve to

have an awesome Birthday! Enjoy it!
