Halloween was a blast this year. The boys loved it, and Avery thought she was in Heaven with ALLLLLLL that candy! Avery was Tinker Bell this year, and she was soooooo cute. Case was a cowboy on the 30th for the Church party, and Pre-school and then he was a Knight when he went Trick or Treating. Dallas wanted be something scary, so he was a vampire. Tridon final got to be Optimus Prime this year, he has been wanting to be Optimus for 2 years, but I never wanted to spend $30.00 on a stupid costume, so we got lucky and found one at a Yard Sale for a dollar back in July, so he got his wish this year. The fun started for the kids on the 29th when Tridon had is school party, and then on the 30th Dallas and Case had their fun school parties, also on that day we had our church party. Then the big the 31st, HALLOWEEN!!! Boise State had a game that day so we hung out for the game and then went Trick or Treating, after all the candy and fun filled evening we ended by watching the "Scooby Doo" movie! We hope all of you had a blast this Halloween. (View the fun below, with the Album I made)

Dallas' 1st grade Harvest Program

This year our wonderful 1st graders at Desert Spring said "Goodbye to Summer, & Hello to Fall" through a Harvest program they put on. We are sooooo proud of Dallas and the wonderful job he did, he sang, did the actions, and even whistled (daddy thinks this was the best part)! Dallas was really excited to do this program, this was right up Dallas' alley of things he likes to do. If Dallas isn't singing, he jumping and dancing around. I think we have a performer in the family! Good Job our little Dallee Monster, we are proud of you! (Check out his pictures below)

Glenn working, helping me, and watching Football and BOISE STATE with friends and family and doing his calling in the Elders Quorum Presidency, Boys going to school doing homework and playing with their friends, and Avery doing whatever Avery does (she is always on the go), and me also being very very busy, if I'm not taking care of the kids, decorating a cake, teaching a cake class, planning and attending Boise State Parties with our friends, teaching Nursery at Church, I am working as a sub for the Vallivue School District! We have a very busy life, but we always come together at the end of the day to be a family, to eat, pray, and just to hangout! At this time of year we like the think of the things that we are Thankful for. We are so very Thankful to the Lord for blessing us with such a loving and caring Family. We are also Thankful for wonderful Friends that support us and love to be with us. We Thank the Lord for the things he blesses us with everyday! Thank You to all of you that are apart of our life's!

Good-bye to our sweet Daisy!

Well our family had tuff/sad day this last weekend and today. To sell or not to sell or Wonderful Bloodhound Daisy!?!? To start our story, Glenn was up doing a bid for work, and he decided to take Daisy with him, for a ride! As he was stopped to get a drink, a rancher from Melba noticed Daisy, and asked Glenn if he knew where to get another one, Glenn joking said "you can buy this one", and the rancher said "how much", well Glenn told him a price that he didn't think that he would go for, well he did! He said that he was on his way out of town and that he would call him when he got back. Well after the conversation with the rancher Glenn called me and asked my opinion, and I told him that I think it would best for Daisy that she went to a 400 acre ranch then be stuck in a backyard with hardly no attention from us, (because of very busy lives). We also informed the kids, and the only one that was upset was Tridon, another reason for us to sell her. Well today the rancher called Glenn and wanted to bring his wife out to see her, and most likely pick her up. We decided to have him come while the older boys were at school, so today Daisy went to a new, and better home. She is a super good Dog and we hope that she will enjoy her time playing with other dogs and the 2000+ cows that she will help with, plus she will finally learn to hunt, and do what she is breed for. We do love her, but we know that if we love her as much as we do, we would do the right thing for her, by putting her in a better home for her. Tridon is really upset, but he knows that this is best, but we will miss her.

Avery turned 2

Well our baby girl Avery turned 2 today, and she sure shows it too! MISS ATTITUDE!!! Avery had a party on Saturday, due to school starting on Wed, and the busy activity we will have on Tues. Thank you too all of our family and friends that were able to make it and help us celebrate her birthday, also thank you for the gifts!
Avery is growing up sooo fast, and becoming quite the little girl, very girly (she loves her nails painted, shoes, her babies, and getting pretty), but she is super tough and can stand up to her brothers or anybody else that has the guts to mess with her, (after all she is going to have to be tough, right)! She loves her daddy, and has him wrapped around her finger, but I have to say she is her mommies daughter. Well Avery, we hope you had a great birthday, and hope that you will have many more happy years with us! Love you baby girl, and Happy Birthday!
(Check out her party below)

Mexican Riviera Crusie Aug. 2-9, 09

Well Glenn and I have been married for 10 years, and so to celebrate we decided to go on a Cruise to Mexico with our best friends. With the help of my dear sweet Aunt Alyana who watch our kids, we were able to do so. We left super early on the 2nd of August, and got back really really late on the 9th of August. We took a 7 day Royal Caribbean Cruise to the Mexican Riviera, which includes Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan, and Puerto Vallarta, with departing and returning to L.A. California! We loved it. It was soooo HOT that I wore my swimsuit pretty much the whole trip, it was at the highest 110 degrees with humidity, so we got super hot and played in the water a lot. We shopped, played on the beach and ate our favorite taco's in Cabo, went Zip Lining and on a tour to a Tequila Factory and city tour plus did a little bit of shopping in Mazatlan, and played on the beach and the shopping came to us in Puerto Vallarta, then when we got back to L.A. we took a city tour of Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and etc...! We had a blast on the ship that included going to fun and entertaining shows, rock climbing, mini golf, and of course tons of eating. We really loved going with our best friends and would love to do it again real soon. So we came back tanner, weighing about 5 lbs more each, (which is good considering how much we ate), and more relaxed. We are glad we are home with our kids again, we missed then sooooooooooooo much, but it was a super nice break. Thanks to Alayna, for watching the kids, Lee for helping take us to and from the airport, and The Bass family for watching our house, and taking care of Daisy, you all really helped us have such a wonderful time. (please view the slide show below, but be prepared there are TONS of pictures.)

Well I have turned 29, and yes I am really 29! I had a really great birthday, filled with fun with the family and friends, gifts, and no chores, and Glenn even made me a birthday cake, (I know scary, uh, but it was super good and he did a great job!) I was able to enjoy my birthday, because I have a great Husband and wonderful family! Thank You to all who sent me birthday wishes, and gave me gifts! Below is a picture of my wonderful cake that Glenn made for me!

Our 4th of July Fun!

This year we went up to McCall with some really good friends of ours (The Ferrera's), we rented a cabin in the now mostly deserted Tamarack Ski Resort, we got up there on Thurs and left Mon. We had so much fun hanging out playing cards, Jet Skiing, Fireworks, and visiting McCall. There were a few things that really sucked about the trip (Mosquito's & a not so great Firework show up in McCall), but nothing that ruined it.
(Watch the slide show below to check out the fun)!!!

Jackson Hole Family Camping Trip

This year my Dad and Mom planned a "Wilson Family Reunion" up to Jackson Hole. We has a super fun time and loved going to all the fun places. Glenn and I showed up to the camp ground on Tues instead of wed and surprised my family, Wednesday we went rafting down the Snake River with the help of my Uncle Galen, he had the rafts and life jackets, (Thank you Uncle Galen) and also visited the town of Jackson Hole. Thursday we went to a dinner/show and the Bar J, wow that was Glenn and I's most favorite part of the week, then we got rained on Friday and wasn't able to do much, so on Saturday when were planning on going home we decided that we were going to go home Sunday and hike a 5 mile hike in the Tetons, with the family on Saturday, (that was another one of my favorite, because it was beautiful and exhilarating. Thanks Mom and Dad for planning such a fun trip, and also Thanks Devin and Cody for helping out so much with the prep and the taking care of things. And to top of such a fun time Dallas lost his first tooth within 15 mins of getting home from the trip. Hope to do it again next year. (Here is a very long slide show of the trip) + (there is a photo below of Dallas and his missing tooth)
