Happy 1st Birthday Raz

Wow I can't believe it's been a year since this sweet little boy joined our family! We have had so much fun with this little guy watching him learn and grow. He started walking right before he turned 10 months and has been hard to keep up with ever since. He has mastered going up and down the stairs by himself,which keeps us all on our toes. He has finally got a few teeth in ,2 on bottom and 1 on top and he is such a good eater. We are so glad to have him in our family and are enjoying every minute with him! Happy 1st Birthday our sweet little Razden!

Thanksgiving

We went to Boise for Thanksgiving to spend the weekend with Chris's sister Nikki and her family.We had so much fun the kids all played really well together. Enjoyed some great company and some great food. We also went and rode a train,it was so fun the kids got to visit with Santa it was about a 3 hr ride and Mrs Clause rode the train with the head elf Jingle and we sang Christmas songs and they told us stories about the north pole. We enjoyed cookies and milk and then Santa rode the train back with us and told us more stories,gave all the kids coloring books,and we sang more Christmas songs it was so fun. Thank You Bunnellfamily for the fun time!

Happy Halloween

A few pics of my little goblins we had fun at the trunk or treat in Ririe tonight!

Our life these days

Just a few unedited shots from my photo shoot with my kids for those of you who don't have facebook. Razden's are below on the next post.

A quick update on our life as we know it: Bryhton just finished grid kid football his team did pretty well but didn't quite make it to the finals. Brylei is very busy being a great big sister, Razden thinks she is his 2nd mommy and absolutely adores her, as does Treagan and although the other three won't admit it they think she is pretty neat also. Bryhton,Gavin, and Declan just started wrestling practice,and are super excited for their first match.The 4 oldest are in school this year and Treagan is loving being in charge while they are away. He is trying to teach Raz all kinds of bad habits and obviously pays way to much attention at wrestling practice because poor Raz is always in a headlock or being pinned. Raz started walking this week just short of turning 10 months this Friday, He thinks he' s pretty cool and is always into something! Chris is out of town welding again and we can't wait for his return! Hope everyone is having a great fall!

Went to the park today to take fall pics of the kids they wanted me to take this one! Gavin,Brylei,Declan.

some fun fall pics I took of Raz this afternoon!

Jolly Mill

We made it back from Missouri! We had so much fun and got to see and do so many fun things with Grandma and Grandpa Sherwood. Our trip started out rough on our way there when our transmission blew up and my brother Abe had to drive four hours to come and tow us.Then the shop took 2 weeks to put in the new transmission but thats just our luck!We went to Precious moments chapel,George Washington Carver museum, Wilsons Creek Battelfield and museum,4 weeks of swimming lessons for all the kids, Silver Dollar city in Branson,Bryhton got to help sell my dads corn at the farmers market,Milk cows, go fishing, The kids made a fort in the woods,We went to movies and to the water park and swimming as a family every Saturday night, went to great Grandparents reunion, Went to the water falls and played in the water, Went to Jolly Mill,played with cousins, Brylei took care of the chickens keeping them fed and watered and gathered the eggs. Gavin and Declan spent every waking hour in the woods building a fort with their cousins Ty and Josh. They didn't seem to care that they got eaten alive by the chiggers and mosquitoes. Treagan figured out how to open the outdoor freezer and could always be found beside the house on the swing eating fudgesicles or out back laying on the picnic table eating a peach sneakey little bugger! We were so lucky to be able to spend a good portion of our summer there.Thank you so much to my patient DAD and MOM for all the yummy food and all they did for us! Chris missed out on most of it but I'm sure he had a blast welding in Texas with my brother. Poor guy misses out on all the fun!! Here are a few of our favorite pictures!
