Halloween stuff...

Holly (my sister-in-law)invited us to a Halloween party. And for once in our lives we actually dressed up. We had such a fun evening! Here is us with Matt and Leslie(our friends)and the white powdery stuff all over my face is from a doughnut eating contest where we couldn't use our hands:)


We went over to Papa and nana's to carve pumpkins. The kids had so much fun. Kierra and Brock were really into the carving this year, however Rhett was way more interested in eating everything that came out of the pumpkin. He ate the the seeds and all.


Brocks pumpkin...

Kierras pumpkin...

Before carving pumpkins we had a yummy dinner and as always the kids had so much fun eating together.


I guess my kids felt like having a reading time, I think it's so funny that they even got Rhett in on it...

Kierra, Brock and Dill...the inseparable trio

These three looked cute sitting by the road but when I walked up to see what they were talking about it became funny to me, if you look closely they are having story time by Kierra from a Disney princess book:)

Summer BBQ...YUM!

It seems like we bbq all summer long. It's one of my favorite things. We invited our neighbors and as always we had a good time. Josh can grill one mean bbq.

My little CUTIE pies...

I think Rhett is so funny when he sleeps, he is so out!


Lately I've been getting tired of doing all the work around this place, so one night I decided that Kierra and Brock would do the dinner dishes (what little bit didn't fit in the dishwasher) To my surprise they were so excited. They loved it. It took forever to do the little bit that they had but at least I had a break :)


Those two fight all the time but I don't know what they would do without each other. They are inseparable.


Our little neighbor "Dill" spends all his time with Brock and Kierra. You'd think they were on some giant hill from the sound of their squealing as they go down this mini ramp. They think they are cool stuff!

Our little visit to the Idaho Art Museum...

My neighbor, Leslie and I took all our kids over to see the art museum. My kids didn't care for the art gallery. They did however have a lot of fun in the kiddie room. They could create all kinds of stuff with magnets and shapes. They got to be creative and practice being an artist.

Camping up at Island Park with our neighbors...

Our little weekend get away was so much fun. We recently just got new neighbors and we have become such good friends. They have 3 boys that Kierra and Brock think they can't spend a day without. They invited us to go up to Island Park with them. While we were there we floated the river, went biking, and took a little trip to West Yellowstone. As always the kids made the trip quite eventful!

What we've been up to...

In August of 2004, on the day of Kierra's first birthday, Josh and I moved our little family to Memphis, TN to go to optometry school. We spent 4 years there and made a lot of great friends and got to experience a whole new life. In May of 2005 we had Brock. In October of 2007 we had Rhett. Here are some pictures of our life in Tennessee...
