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)

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!

Summer Fun!

This summer we have had a super fun time, I have posted 2 scrapbooks of a few of the things that we did together as a family. The first one is of things we did and the second one is of a Mini 2 day Trip to Utah. 1st one - The first page is just random pictures of the us doing things, the next one is of a Family Home Evening where we went to the park and hit a few softballs around (the boys did really well, even if their eyes were shut, as you can see), next few pages are of the State Fair including the kids first concert, we went and saw Rodney Atkins (the boys love his song "Watching You" it reminds them of Glenn and themselves, and the one after that are a few more random shots taken through out the summer!

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.
