Halloween

Here are some Halloween pictures. Mason was Flash, Karlee was Super Girl, and Bryant was a Frog. Mason and Karlee got to wear their costumes to school. They thought that it was so fun! This year instead of carving our pumpkins we bought some cute plastic pieces to make your pumkins look like an animal! They are the best things ever. I got my $3 worth!

The Tiger's Last Game

We had an exciting season this year in soccer! We were the Tigers. Kenneth had a lot of fun being the coach and learning the game of soccer! Mason had fun walking on the lines or picking dandelions, and when he actually paid attention he got to kick the ball. Mason's favorite position to play was "goalie". Great coaching Kenny! Thanks for not only helping Mason but also all the other kids that were on your team! Love You!

Karlee's 4th Birthday

Karlee had a fun birthday party! It was fun to have Bailie, Ian and Sydney there to share the excitement. Thanks to all the other guest too! I am so glad that I have kids to still make birthday's exciting and fun!

Karlee and Her Bike

After a few tears and fits we finally got Karlee to pedal her bike all by herself! Ken did have to zip-tie some shoes on her bike, but oh well! Karlee was so excited to "make her bike go all by herself"! We are so excited that she if finally getting strong enough to do some things all by herself! Thanks Karlee and GOOD JOB!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks Karlee for being a good big sister too! Bryant likes to climb on behind her seat and sit and ride her bike with her!

Karlee's Broken Arm

On August 27th Karlee was sitting on her stool eating some ice cream when she fell off. We took her to the doctor the next morning, and she got her left arm x-rayed. She fractured both bones just above her wrist! She picked a purple cast. She only has to wear her cast for 2 weeks! Her cast is even gortex. So she can basically do whatever she wants.

Silly Bryant!

Bryant is such a silly kid! He likes to come in the bathroom when I am doing Karlee's hair. He likes to pick a head-band for him to wear. He likes to wear them while he plays. He will not wear the head-band if it has a bow on it though.

Soccer and School

Mason started soccer! This is his first year of soccer. He likes it most of the time. I think once he gets the hang of it he will like it more. The guy from the city called and said that they could not get anyone to commit to be the coach. So Kenneth is the coach! He is doing a good job! Mason started school on August 18th. He has to be at the school at 7:55 a.m. So me being the morning person that I am, I have not taken his picture yet! Karlee started school today! She gets to ride the bus, and she loves it! The bus picks her up at 8:50 a.m. So I remebered to take her picture on her first day of school. Bryant likes that he is the only kid for a few hours. He can do whatever he wants and he never gets anything taken away from him! Thank You for school!

Safety First

Bryant is Kenneth Junior! Bryant found these safety goggles and brought them to me to put them on him! He thinks that he so funny! He was running around and screaming. Again I tried to take Bryant's picture, but he would not stop. Never a dull moment at our house! We wouldn't have it any other way!

Our Elmo Biker

Bryant went downstairs the other night with Ken and found this little Elmo bike that was Mason's. Bryant loves Elmo, so he was in love at first sight! I brought the bike upstairs for him today and he rode it all around the house! He is so funny I was trying to take his picture, but he would not stop. So the pictures that I did get were of him riding by, or crashing in front of me! He also like to try and ride the bike with his blanket, but that does not work too well! Bryant growing up too fast. I can ask him to do something, and he understands, and actually does what I ask him to do! He is also starting to talk a lot more! He likes to try and repeat what you say! What a good boy!

"Hank"

We got a new pet! When we went to Idaho for my cousins wedding, my cousin Janae had a turtle. My kids loved it! So our kids asked if we could get a turtle too. So we went "Where's Nemo" in American Fork and got a "Redear Slider Turtle". Mason and Karlee were so funny. All the way home they were trying to think of a name for our turtle. They could not agree on a name. One of the names that Karlee suggested was "Kenneth", she said that it was a good name. It was so funny! We finally decided to name our turtle "Hank". But Karlee calls him "Hanky". When we put the turtle in the tank Bryant went crazy! He loves to stand by his tank and just watch him. We love Hank!

Karlee "Her Daddy's Flower Girl"

My cousin Jake and his fiance Ashely asked Karlee to be their flower girl for their wedding. Karlee said she would be a flower girl, but only for her dad! So that was the only way that we could get her to do it! The day of the wedding I took my camera so that I could take a lot of pictures. I had my sister Erica sit in the back with Karlee to tell when to start walking up the aisle and I was sitting on the front row waiting for her to come up. Karlee got half way up the aisle and then she stopped. So I tried to talk her into walking to me but she wouldn't. So instead of me taking a lot of pictures I got to help Karlee finish up the aisle. She did good! She also made the tears start flowing at the wedding! Karlee is a special girl! Kenneth and I are so blessed to have her in our family!

July 4th

Kenneth, Mason, Karlee, Bryant, and I stayed home for the Fourth of July. It was fun! That afternoon we went to the neighbors house for the kids to swim and play in the water. When it started to get dark we lit our fireworks that we had bought. I had to put Bryant in his stroller because he kept trying to touch them. He could not get close enough. The louder they were the better! In one of the pictures Mason and Karlee have their ears covered. But not my crazy Bryant! Thanks Kenny for letting me light most of our fireworks, I love to do it!

Mason Lost His Second Tooth!

Mason got another wobbly tooth. He would not wiggle it so that it could fall out. So his new tooth started to grow in behind the wobbly tooth. One day I asked him if I could touch it. He actually let me so I was moving it and it got pretty loose. But then Mason started getting scared so he closed his mouth. I asked him if I could feel it one more time, and me being the "world's meanest mom" I bent his tooth forward and it popped right out. Mason did not even know that his tooth was out until I showed him. Then he started to cry and asked me why I did that! But then he remembered that he could put his tooth under his pillow for the Tooth Fairy to come, and she did! Mason got $2.00. Kenneth and I never thought that having kids would be so fun and so hard at the same time!!!!! We love our family!!!!!! Thanks Mason for being so forgiving!

Our 8th Anniversary!

Here are some pictures that we took on our trip. Ken and I had a lot of fun, but it is always fun to come home to our kids.
