Shyane's first temple trip

Well, I don't have any pictures, but just wanted to let everyone know Shyane got to go to the temple and do baptism's on Tuesday. She was very excited. She also gives her first talk in sacrament tomorrow. Mackenzie won her first basketball game today. She made a 3 point swish she calls it. Kids are excelling well.

What is one more, maybe we need a bus?

Oh, by the way check out Travis and my Christmas present. It shouldn't arrive till about August.......Hey there are already six what is one more, really?

More snowy pics..............

A very cold christmas indeed.

We have had so much snow this December. It is pretty much melted by now. Here is me and the kids playing out in the snow. Shyane was white washing everyone, then when it happened to her, well she balled like a little girl.

What mom doesn't know won't hurt, right

"Look, mom no hands!"

where was I, I wondered. He sure is cute, though.

This one looks like Kierstin is holding Colby up.

Ok, so I wasn't paying attention to where the kids were or what they were doing and Shyane had gotten a hold of my camera and snapped some shots. Well, later on Travis and I were looking on the camera for something and surprise, look what mom and dad found.

Surprisingly, this great shot was only our 3rd. Granted, some of the kids look, dazed, cheesy or frozen, but we are all looking the same way and smiling one way or the other. I think I still got it for a woman who is going to be 33 and a mom of "6". LOL

today was surgery day!!!!!

Today Travis and I got up at 1 am and drove to Seattle, to be at the Children's Hospital by 6 am because little Travis needed surgery. He got 4 teeth pulled. Everything went very well and we got home around 5pm. A very long day indeed. He is recovering nicely with 4 big holes in his mouth. We are to just watch closely for the next 24 hours for extended fever. He was a very brave little boy.
