Riding Horses

This past Friday we took the kids riding horses. They had a lot of fun. Madison especially LOVES horses. She really wants to take riding lessons when she is a couple of years older. Here are some pics of the kids riding a super nice horse named Brewster.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Happy Birthday Braxton!!

This year for Braxton's birthday cake he wanted brownies, so we tried to make them look like a cake...kinda fun and different.

Landon and his creative food invention.

Landon likes to take cut pickles and put them in rolls, sometimes he even adds ketchup....yumm yumm. He likes to be creative with his food.

Makenna

Speaking of pickles, Makenna calls cucumbers pickles, the other night Makenna came and told me that she washed her hair with pickles and doesn't it smell good, she was so proud of herself. After contemplating what she had just told me I remembered that there was some shampoo that we have that has cucumbers on it, and that is what she had used. So now when she goes to get in the bathtub she says she is going to wash her hair with the pickle shampoo. :)

Madison has lost her 2nd tooth..

Madison lost her 2nd tooth. Horray. Although the Toothfairy must have been very busy the night that she was supossed to come to our house and trade Madison's tooth for some money, so the next night the Toothfairy had to leave double......oops....Madison was happy to get more money tho'. So, it all worked out.

Makenna had tons of fun with all of the Halloween costumes.

Makenna loved dressing up in all of the costume. Here are a few of them, there are alot more of her in different costumes I will put on later.

Madison wanted to be a witch for school.

Madison decided at the last moment, literally 5 minutes before the school bus came, that she wanted to be a witch for the school Halloween party, so I hurried and found some what little black fabric I had and we wrapped it around her shoulders like a cape. She liked it so that was good. :)

Landon loves Krispy Kreme donuts!!

Landon loves Krispy Kreme donuts, last year for Christmas he got a gift card for his own dozen donuts...YUM!

Madison

Madison has always loved bunny's ever since she was super little. She didn't want any whiskers or the tail tho'.

Makenna

Last month Makenna had put on 3 hats, a flower headband and her purple slippers. She came to show me and she said "I look fabulous" Of course I think she is adorable and I had to take a pic.

Yummy!!

Makenna helping me make Birthday cakes for Michael and Landon's b-days.

Some more pictures when we went to Depoe Bay, OR

We had alot of fun on the coast.

Madison feeding Ellie

This past July, Kristina, Newell, Jacob, and Ellie came up to our house to visit us. We had alot of fun, We got to watch Ellie when Kristina, Newell, and Jacob went up to Seattle to a Mariners and Red Sox game. It took Ellie a little while to get used to us, she is a super sweetie (I don't even think she ever cries) We loved watching her. Ellie wasn't quite sure about me feeding her tho', but she loved it when Madison fed her....So, here is a cute pic of Madison feeding Ellie some yogurt. Too cute....

Flower Girls

Madison and Makenna picked some flowers in the backyard and put them in their hair....then of course they wanted their picture taken.

Having fun on the coast.

Braxton and Landon playing at the beach. Depoe Bay, Oregon.

The boys are off camping for Father and sons and the girls are keeping cool.

Making puppy look pretty.

Madison and Makenna love to help give the dog a bath, blowdry, and brush puppy. We end up with alot of water all over the kitchen but it is still fun. Here are the girls blowdrying and brushing puppy.

Madison graduated from Kindergarten

Congrats Madison, you now are going to be in 1st grade.....:)

At the end of this past school year Landon and Madison picked out flowers and potted them to give to their teachers. The tag said "Thank you for helping me grow this year" they had fun giving them to their teachers and the teachers loved them.
