kid pictures

Take a look at my sister-in-laws photography blog...



to see some photos of my darn cute kids! (if I do say so myself...)

First and Foremost

Emma's first day of school... the first day of school is a 1 hour meet the teacher, tour the school, drop of all you supplies and stuff... So, that morning Emma tells me “mom you don’t need to stay with me.” I say, “We’ll see.” In the car on the way she said, “Well maybe you can wait in the car.” “We’ll see” I say. Walking up to the school, Emma says “well I guess you should come and stay." “Alright I’ll stay.” I say.






















Another 1st of the day
Was Max’s birthday... yep... 1year old!
He cried when we sang to him and until we gave him some cake I guess he just really wanted some cake :}Happy Birthday MAX!

Meet Thomas...

Emma and Kael have a new little friend and decided to call him Thomas the Cat...
a friend of our had kittens and we have a mouse problem, so Kaelen gave into Emma's pleas for a cat... And they love him they pack him around everywhere!

wondering what to make for dinner?

Check out this website I found it's great! You put in what ingredients you have and it gives you hundreds of recipes to pick from, try it... I love it... www.supercook.com

hay, hay, hay!!!

hay! everywhere ! Tis' the season I guess... this is what we do (Kaelen calls it fun I call it annoying)... cut it, rake it , bale it! and pray it doesn't rain or get to hot to fast or to little wind or to much dew! :{
but it's almost done... just a few more 100 acres to go.(or something)

Fox Visit!

Well, my mom, dad and 2 of my sisters (mia & jess) just left after a weeklong visit we already miss them. It was good to see them, and nice to have them visit for my birthday and extra help with the kids is always nice too...
Few of the things we did...
My dad and Kaelen got started on a playground for the kids.
My mom made 2 skirts for Emma and one for me,
2 pairs of shorts for Kael and Max...
A trip to Prince George...
Horseback riding for the girls...
2 trips to the lake... because it has been so hot here ... in the high 80’s all week! (a heat wave I’m telling you!)
And just hanging out with the puppies and the hay bales...


yeeha!

the 4th in Canada

Well I don't think most Canadians celebrate the 4th of July, but being an American along with most of my inlaws being Americans we celebrated... With good food, water fun,and fireworks...We went up to Gulbranson Logging logging camp on Tizgay Lake... The kids had a great time playing on the dock and in the sand and water(don't let their smiles fool you that water was freezing cold)... Good thing Mike & Karli brought their canoe to help entertain everyone since the motor boat was out of commission... That's why Kaelen was trying to fish from the dock...(not much luck though)and as you can tell we don't fix our hair or wash our faces much when we are camping...:)
