Christmas 2010

Halloween 2010

Ryan is a Star Wars Clone Trooper. Connor is Spider Man, and Hailey is a lamb. A grouchy lamb.

Spider-Man thinks he is pretty funny.

Had to throw in a little cute Hailey face! Just so you can know what she would look like if she were smiling in her lamb costume. We were pretty awesome when it came to pumpkin carving this year. Alright, JF was awesome, while the rest of us watched him be awesome. The skull & crossbones, and the Cinderella were Hank and Kessie's handy work.

Halloween was kinda low key this year since it fell on a Sunday. We did a Trunk-or-Treat with our ward on Saturday, then on Sunday we just passed out candy to the 11 trick-or-treaters we got. Somehow we still ended up with tons of candy! On to the next holiday, Thanksgiving!

Star Wars Cookies, Cute Hailey face, and Ryan's Birthday!

A different kind of air show

In this family, if it has to do with aviation, we are all over it! I have stood and watched more jet fuel consuming aircraft then you can even imagine. This morning, we went to a different kind of air show. You know when you are blowing bubbles, and you get that neat feeling when you are standing amidst all the floating bubbles? Well that's what it was like, only these bubble were GIANT, and lovely! We got the kids up,( Yawwwn!), and told them we were taking them to see a "surprise". The hot air balloons did not disappoint. Going to become a tradition, I believe.

Definitely a memory maker! ( I love those!!)

Digging with my brothers

"What mom? I'm Busy. Doing important stuff. I'm big enough ya know."

One guess as to who is in charge in this group.

Hailey is officially "one of the kids". I don't have two kids and a baby anymore. She keeps up, and most the time, calls the shots.

4th of July

We went to Ann Morrison park again this year to watch the fireworks. Boise sure puts on a good show! Hailey really enjoyed the fireworks for the first 4 minutes or so, then she just wanted to wrestle with Daddy, cause he was laying on the ground! JF almost missed the show, because he was waiting in the 3 mile long line for the restroom with Connor. I guess it's all part of being a parent.

Hailey's 1yr pictures (Otherwise known as the day I spent too much money at the JCPenney's portrait studio...)

Spring Flowers

With the beautiful weather we decided to get out and add some pizazz to the front yard. Once JF gets started on a project it's best to just step back and watch him go! He did have a little helper, but she mostly got in the way and ate dirt!











Working away! JF is building a flower bed, and I think Hailey is burying a paper towel.

Isn't it beautiful!

Hailey's 1st 365...

My Little girl turned 1 year old yesterday. We spent a small fortune at the JCPenney's picture studio, ( what am I going to do with 12 5x7's of my daughter?), then we took her to the park to feed the ducks. I wish I had my camera, Hailey had a great time! She thinks it is SO funny when the geese fight over the bread we throw for them! After that we went to Grandma and Grandpa Townsend's house, where Hailey got to go for a tractor ride with Grandpa! We had a great time, and we topped it off with cake and ice cream! Hailey was a GIANT mess! I Love you crazy face!

Isn't her hair so awesome in this picture? I laughed until I cried. I told you people I can't do little girl hair.
