Christmas 2014

By
We woke up Christmas morning at Kyle's parents house. Everyone else soon arrived and we had some delicious cinnamon rolls....our pre-breakfast. After that everyone opened gifts. The kids were all so funny. They all lined up on chairs to wait for presents.  



 Trying to get a photo of cousins...we were missing 4.








 Landin is our little engineer. He got this marble run from grandma and grandpa and it was the hit of the party! All the kids loved setting up different obstacles and watching the marbles run down! Landin and Jamin still get this set out and play with it all the time!
 This game was so fun! It was fun for the adults to play a funny game for a change!
 Christmas afternoon and after our second huge breakfast that consisted of EVERYTHING cooked in bacon grease (it was amazing delicious and we always end up eating way too much), we headed over to my parent's house. Christmas is my mom's holiday. She always goes above and beyond....including Christmas presents individually wrapped from Santa! Her mantle is completely full of beautiful stalkings with ALL of our names embroidered on them and a bell in each. She even remodeled their living room and bought a huge mantle to fit them all this year because of all the stalkings she has had to add in the past few years for the grand kids!
I love this picture of the whole gang! :)
After we finally got back home, the boys were exhausted. This is how Jamin fell asleep on the couch

Wonderful little company!

Yesterday I had the honor to watch Nathan. Nathan's parents are Matt and Sonya, friends from our small group at church. We had a blast all afternoon. Both the boys didn't take naps so I thought it was going to be a rough afternoon but I think they got energy from one another. I was nervous for dinner time too but they both did great. Both ate like champs...even ate their vegetables!  I put these two to work right away lol Busy building something great! We went outside for a bit. It was hard to keep these two together in the front so we headed out back! Nathan loved exploring! Showing me a sweet rock that he found! Jamin exploring too! Wondering where he should go next. There are so many things to see in our backyard  The boys looking at the rocks and weeds lol Nathan showing Jamin the treasure (weed) that he found! We played on the swings for a while too. One would be in this swing while I held the other in the other swing! (Sorry my...

I couldn't really think of a title for this post so I decided to just states the dates lol. Last week Jamin and I went to Focus on the Family with our friends Sonya and Nathan. I just got done reading Bringing Up Boys which was written by the Founder of Focus on the Family, Dr. James Dobson. Although Focus on the Family is a place I would hear about while growing up, I really didn't know a lot about it. My friend Sonya went to their Institute and so our trip planning began to go visit it!  Group picture after taking the tour  We can never get a great shot of the boys lol These were taken in their really awesome play area! Love this picture! Stroller parking!!! A smile that makes my heart melt everytime! Jamin and Nathan Mommy was way too big for this little boat lol Silly faces  We also went to the zoo with Sonya and Nathan last week. Here are a few pictures! We even go the moose in the picture! Jamin got scared of the big hippo :( ...

Road Trip Part 5

By
Monday morning rolled around and we decided to make our way from Bozeman down to the West Yellowstone Entrance. The drive was amazingly gorgeous!  Just driving in Harvey!  We made it to West Yellowstone but were turned away from two different RV parks because of the amount of kids we had with us. This was the first time I have ever felt looked down upon and discriminated against. I literally had one man ripped a piece of paper out of my hands because he didn't even want to consider letting that many people stay in his park. I explained to him that they are all young and well behaved kids but apparently he has had way too many bad experiences with kids. We didn't let it get us down though. We finally found one that didn't have any concerns letting 4 adults come in with 5 kiddos. The place was actually brand new and the closest RV park to the west Yellowstone entrance so we really lucked out!!! After we got checked in we decided to go into the park ...
