Feeding the Birds

Skiing and Wakeboarding

Cal thinks he  is such a big boy skiing-he can't wait to learn tricks!

What a stud doing a Tantrum (back flip)!

Cade does not want anyone else to have a turn.  He would stay out all day if we let him!

Not too bad for having 3 kids (someday I will be able to do flips like Adrian:)

This little girl can not get enough of the water! 

Great Uncle Arnold's Funeral

I know this blog is super late, but this is one that I need to blog because me Uncle Arnold was one of the greatest men I knew.  He was 93 years old when he passed away.  He was patient, kind, funny, a hard worker, a talker, and my hero!  I love him and miss him so much but know that he is with his family, and that makes me happy because i know that he was ready to see them again!  I can't wait for my family to do his temple work!

The Pall Bearers: 

Wayne, Uncle Jerry, Brett, Dad, Uncle Jim, and Bryce

His parents grave right next to his.

His Nephews:

 Jim, Jerry, Jack (my Dad)

My little family minus Adrian

Idaho Fun

We have some new friends up in Idaho that we love!  Adrian had to do some work up there, so we decided to go with him and stayed with this family.  They were the best hosts and have the best house ever!  I barely saw my boys, because they were outside playing and exploring all day long!

 They took us horseback riding, 4 wheeling, the boys went camping while the girls had a fun time eating out, shopping, watching a movie and making bows!  Good company and yummy food! 

Even Bella got in on the horse riding action

These 2 had SO much fun together, they played outside ALL DAY LONG, it was a bit scary watching the 2 of them on the four wheeler going crazy.  Sam is just a few months older than Cal and they became the best of friends!

Bella Turns 1

With her new La La Loopsey Doll

Cupcake time!

Gosh we love this little girl!

She loves to crawl up the stairs

Is working at standing all by herself, and is getting really good at it

She is a great sleeper.

Hums when she eats

Yells when you are not feeding her fast enough

Jibber jabbers all the time

Loves babyfood still

Enjoys being with her family

Crawls as fast as she can to get outside if a door is left open

She makes us so happy!

Best friends (usually)...

So we decided it has been a while since Adrian took any pictures of the kids, so we spent the morning getting two rather energetic little boys and our little angel ready, not noticing the storm that was rolling in...

30 mile/hour winds meant that mom and Bella stayed in the car while the boys went out and braved the wind...

Here are some of the photos that Age took, I am so proud of him, it is no small feat to get those two boys to actually co-operate with the camera...

He's not really flipping the bird!!!

Oh that they would be this close all the time

Oh that he were an angel like this, all the time...

Not sure where he learnt that...

We sure love our Cal.

Brothers... (until they get home and Cade picks up one of Cal's toys..)

Home for treats for being so good...

Tired boy...

Here is what happens when a tired little Caders throws a fit at the dinner table, refuses to move.. And is ignored.. Yep sound asleep.

Is that the Joker?

Is that the joker? Oh, it's just Cade eating toast... We sure love our Caders...

Mom's snack

Cal told me had left a snack for Mom in her room because he wanted to be nice.. Here  is what I found... When he is not teasing his brother, he can be such an Angel of a child!

Ear Tubes

Back in Feb. Cade and Bella both had ear tubes put in.  They both did so well and were so BRAVE!

Our Little Wrestler

Cal LOVED wrestling!  We loved his coach!  Cal  for sure will be doing it again next year and we will stick Cade in it also.  Cal started out a little bit on the nervous side but ended up being quite the wrestler!
