First BIG Snow Fall

Aubrey is trying to push Lauren in the snow.Lauren was so excited to go play!


We had a big snow fall yesterday. We got about 10 inches. The first thing Aubrey wanted to do when whe got home from school was go sledding down our hill in our backyard. The slope is pretty big so you can go really fast. They had a great time!!

Leave it up to Chad!!


Those who know Chad pretty well then you would get a kick out of this. Sorry to those that don't like it. I came home from a church activity and found this. I was laughing so hard!! Don't worry, he didn't keep it up too long. If you don't get it, it is a deer that has been shot. Sorry hunting season just ended for him and I think that he still has it on his mind.

I did it! Finally!!

I know, I know that I'm bad at this. I've had a couple of friends "complain" that I don't post enough!! :) I feel busy but I have no idea what I've been doing. Crazy. Well we are having another girl! Chad says that he will need some "Man" time. Poor guy, the girls already side with me on everything even if I'm wrong!! Anyway, I posted some pictures so I should be up to date. I'll get this down sometime.

This is my family!!

We were just playing with the camera and took some pictures. After a little cropping and fixing the red eye, some of these pictures turned out good.










Witches

I caught Lauren sneaking extra candy while the boys weren't looking!!
My two little angels were witches for Halloween!





Apple Hill (I mean Bishop's Pumkin Farm)







We were able to go to Apple Hill this year. We love going to see the Piggie Race, eating great food and awesome pie, picking out our pumpkins at the pumpkin patch and doing all the fun stuff there is to do there.



Where's Lauren??

Lauren wanted to play hide and go seek with me. So when I came in the kitchen and saw this, I thought that it was so funny!

My little Get-Away!

Chad had to go to Las Vegas for a meeting for his work so I went with him. We stayed at the Wynn which is a REALLY nice hotel!! But all I did was stay in my room and read "Twilight"!! Yes I got stucked into it and I love it!! I love the whole series. It's a must read!

Lauren's the BIG Two!!


Well, here is my big girl!! Lauren is two years old now and loves to do things by herself. She loves Aubrey and tries to do the same things she does.

Life is crazy!!

I am so bad at staying on top of our blog!! With this pregnancy, I haven't wanted to do anything. So anyway, I have the energy so I'm going to post a bunch of events that happened this summer. They are brief but at least I will be caught up!!

Six Flags


We had the chance to go to Six Flags one Saturday. It happend to be Lauren's birthday so we were telling people who worked there to see if we would get anything free!! Anyway, Aubrey told the lady who worked the dolphin show and she said that Lauren was too young but if Aubrey wanted to help feed the dolphins. Aubrey was so excited!! She had a great time. Oh yeah, happy birthday Lauren!!

Aubrey's First Day Of School!



The night before, I was ready to pick out Aubrey's clothes. She said that she wanted to pick them so I told her she could and to put them on her bed. So the next morning she runs into my room saying "Ta-da!!" She put on her old jeans with butterflies and her old High School Musical shirt. I said "No way! You have plenty of new clothes, pick one of those." So she picked this outfit which was fine but I told her that I got to pick the follow days clothes. Was that mean of me??

Aubrey's first hot lunch



I know that I'm goofy, but I hate missing Aubrey's "firsts". So I decided to go in and take some pictures of my big girl!! She did a great job picking out her lunch.

How big is Lauren??



I wasn't feeling very good so I was laying down on the couch. Lauren seemed to be really quiet so I finally got up to find her pouring her own milk for her cereal. Before I got upset, I had a take a picture first.

Camping...





We had a great time going camping through out the summer. The first two pictures are from Gray Eagle and the second two are from Stampede.

Our new little cousin!!



Lauren loves her new baby cousin, Colton. She loves to hold him and just look at him. I think that is so cute!! By the way, Lauren loves wearing bandaids!!!

Surprise!!


A couple of weeks ago we found out that we are pregnant!! My symptoms came on really fast this time. Aubrey told me the other day that we are having a boy. I asked her why she says that and she said that Heavenly Father knows what we need. i told her that it could easliy be a girl but her mind was made up. I thought that was really cute!!

Jump Man Jump




Chad has been gone for a while so us girls have been doing little things to stay busy and have fun. I wasn't feeling too good one morning and Aubrey asked if we could go to Jump Man Jump. I thought that would be a great idea so they could go have some fun and I could just take it easy. Aubrey has been there before but it was Lauren's first time and she loved it!! I think that her favorite thing was the pool of balls! After a while she decided to go play with Aubrey. Aubrey is such a great sister, she makes sure that Lauren is having a good time.

Happy Family Reunion!!






It is so fun to get the family together. Don and his family weren't able to come so we missed them. It was so fun to see the grandkids play together. We started are reunion at Idlewild park so some of us could go tubin'. The rest of us stayed at the park and played around. It was a lot of fun!

Tubin'



We decided to go float the Truckee River. It was a cooler day so the water was cold. Besides the one "flip over" they had a great time!!

Mom, please stop taking my picture!!!


Can you see my eyes???


Fourth of July Night




We went to a baseball field to watch the fireworks. It was a good place to let the kids run around.
