We Might Be Doing Something Right...

We just watched the movie Evan Almighty with the kids....which by the way they loved, but there was a part in the movie where Evan is given some really shabby robes from God to wear. James asked "Ethan what would you do if you were given those to wear, don't you think everyone would laugh at you"? Ethan replied...."I would do anything Heavenly Father asked me"! It was a proud moment!

Aztec Ruins

Yesterday we took the kids to the Aztec Ruins. The Anasazi Indians lived there. It was pretty cool. Ethan particularly enjoyed it. He is on an Indian kick right now, and wants to know all about them. The Ruins date back to the time of Christ...pretty neat!

A Day at the Track

Today we were able to go to Cory and Morgan's track meet. They are amazing athletes and the kids really enjoyed watching them. Morgan was fantastic on the hurdles and Cory did great with the relay. My kids want to be just like them. P.S. it was brutally cold and windy......We miss San Diego!

There is Something Great Inside Us All!

Meri makes me Merry!

I was having a down day, missing my previous life in San Diego and all my wonderful family and friends when the fed ex guy came to my door! He brought me the most beautiful basket full of delicious treats. It put a smile on my face and really made me happy. Thank you Meridee! Your the best!

A Trip to the Cabin

Yesterday we took the kids to Colorado to my parents cabin. We were amazed at all the snow, and so were the kids. They wanted to play in it so bad, but we don't have any winter coats or gloves. James let them play and they nearly froze to death.

While at the cabin the kids were so excited to see all the deer. As we were leaving, there must have been 30 deer in my parents front yard. We had a great time, and it was fun to see Grandma and Grandpa.

Hold the Presses....Olivia Turned Seven

It was a big day for Olivia...today she turned seven. James arranged for us to take all the kids to the Triple J Ranch to help celebrate. Olivia brought her friend Chloe and we had a blast. The girls each got to the ride some horses. All the kids got to ride all over the ranch on golf carts where they saw hundreds of cattle, buffalo, sheep, and you name it. Elijah was able to fish in the pond, and the rest of them were able to paddle around in the boat.

We went back to our house and ate the best cake ever! Olivia had a great day. She is the best little girl. She loves to dress nice and always have her hair perfect. She is always kind to everyone, and never meets anyone who isn't her new best friend. We love you Liv.
