It was Lego Star Wars. Suprise. I let them pick what they want to do for the party.

We Played "Pin the Arms, Legs, and Head on the right Lego guy"





As Porter would say "This is the Best Part"

Cathing Up

It has been a while since I updated this blog. Here are a few things that we have done over the last few months.

Porter Playing Soccer for his first time.

Boys bird watching.

Ben teaching Kade to gut a fish. Yuck!

We bought a boat! It is so fun. The kids take it out on the little ponds and just row till there arms hurt. They make for great trolling motors while Ben fishes.

Redy, Set, Build!

        Ready, set, BUILD!   After the 5th Lego Party what are you to do.  We had a building competition.  You had to build a specified ittem as fast as you could.(it was the same item for everyone) Once you completed it you received a prize.  What Fun.  LOVE THE LEGOS. Kade B-day 2009



Initiation

Every once in while we must initiate the newcomers to the family, only if there are of age. The kids thought that this pretty fun. The mystery behind it all, is the getter. Some laughed and some cried but ALL were accepted as part of the family.

Measuring for the coufin is the scariest.

Then you get to go to Heaven on the Ironing Board.

Mason Got Baptized in February. All of his loved ones were around.

WANTED

Porter and Ben Jaming to Bonjovi's, Dead or Alive. They are sharing earphones so all you hear is the lyrics. 

It is always fun carving pumpkin. Kade and Porter are like me the hate getting the insides out. Mason on the other hand doesn't care to much. It is more of a mission for him. At the beggining Porter made Ben promise not to chase them around with the guts this yeat. I think that that is what has been causing the bad dreams all year. :)Halloween.

Catching up. 2008

Mom hired a photographer to take pictures of the family.  He realized the characters of the kids real quick and did an excellent job capturing that.  Fall 2008

We went on a camp out with Paul, Amy, Brian and Jen up on Cedar Mountain.  It was cold but so much fun.  We took  a good trip around the mountain on the four wheelers.  Ben let me drive some of the way.  What a guy.   August 2008

Fun together time.  Ben is a great one armed photographer.
