Christmas

We had a really fun christmas this year, no traveling, no schedule. we just sat around the house being lazy and it was great. we missed having family around but this was the next best thing. We also stayed healthy which is a rarity for us. I wont say too much just a comment here or there. Enjoy the pictures

Naked before we give them there new PJs.









Ornaments The boys got tool boxes cause they are really into handy manny and fixing things

Gavin is in love with cats he acts like a cat all time, ask him a question you are bound to get a meow as an answer.

And of course Kennas first ornament .






Christmas morning so fun.

Im catching up. we are up to christmas!!!!

Halloween

We had a really good halloween even though it was poring down rain. The boys wanted to be Mario and Luigi again this year and who was I to argue its way cheaper then buying two new costumes we just switched up who was who from last year. Gavin was a little monster which fits his personality. Instead of carving pumpkins we colored little ones. (we were still going through kennas seizer stuff)






Clint brought these home from work for the kids they loved them

We colored halloween pictures


Kenna was our little chicken. She HATED her costume so she wasnt in it long.

Fun Times

Okay so I know it has been a really really long time. Kenna is such a time consuming baby but I will be better. Now that she is a little older and crawls I think I will have more time. So the next few blogs will be some catch up and then I will start posting new. I look at these pictures and my kids dont even look the same anymore but they are still things I want to remember so I am going to add them. We are having so much fun. Clint graduated and we are now on the search for a job. But for now we are enjoying having him around more often. Here are just some fun times we have had in the past few months


Okay this is a really old one of kenna but I love her eyes. Her eyes are still this color, everyone comments on them but we really have no idea where she got such blue eyes.
she has loved to jump in the jumperoo since she was 5 months old. but now that she is crawling I think it is almost time to take it down.
Owen and Tyson got some missionary tags at church one week. They were so excited to be missionaries like Grandpa and Grandma!
I just love these two boys






As for this little snotty face, (He was teething)He HATES dirt on his hands he got a tiny bit on his finger and I had to wipe it off.






Okay so that is the end for now but I am going to get Halloween and Christmas up soon I promise. Then I will do more recent like the boys Birthday, and I will try and get a video of Kenna.

Sandpoint ( I know long time over due)

ok these pictures are really old kenna is like 1 month old but I have had this post sitting in my draft box forever so I figured I had to get it done. this is from our trip to sandpoint back in august :) we always have so much fun there though it was a little crazy driving 13 hours with a one month old, it was still worth it. We had way too much fun not to blog about it.

watching movies with grandma


kenna "watching" movies with grandpa.


Boat ride with the marks

End of the boat ride with the marks, I asked if they could come everyday around nap time. The boat ride pictures are not great but it is hard taking a picture on a boat with a cell phone.



We went huckleberry picking with my grandparents and oh what an adventure, we actually had a lot of fun and we will always remember this trip. luckily we didnt bring the kids otherwise it wouldn't have been so much fun.

we went to the first spot and only got about one little layer of berries on the bottom of the bucket, but we had heard that the berries didnt do well this year so we weren't expecting much. we decided we at least had enough to give the kids a little so they could try fresh huckleberries.
so as we went up to turn around and we got a flat tire, we were also lucky the expert tire changer jay was with us so he just whipped a new tire on for us. well then we started down the road and this happened. Yep two flat tires

Well two flat tires- one spare tire- Idaho mountains- No cell service = sitting for hours while sending things down the hill with passer bys(which dont come often in the mountains) we sent our tire down with one guy to take to les schwab and we gave him a whole bunch of numbers to call family to tell them where we were and see if anyone could go to les schwab and get our tire and bring it back up to us. of course we have no Idea if they got a hold of anyone so we had to just wait. eventually we sent grandpa with someone so he could go see if anyone new we were there. on his way down apparently he passed my uncle cliff bringing us up the tire. so after 2 hours of sitting we got our new tire and found grandpa at the bottom of the road waiting.
The good news is where the car tire popped the second time had a lot more huckley berries so we had 2 extra hours of picking time. :)



Here are just some random pictures







The boys at the park. poor owen had his broken elbow slowing him down













We had a great time thanks mom and dad. Cant wait for next time!!!!
