Well, it has been way too long. Before the end of the year, we will update you on all the fun and shenanigans we have been up to this year. Camping, Disney, Dylan's Baptism, motorcycles, all the birthdays, baby #4, and all the other goodies. In the meantime, here are some pictures our good friend, Anna Hale www.boololophotography.blogspot.com, took for us.

Hope all is well, check in again soon!


Dylan 8, Christian 4, Mom, Dad, Shaylynn 16 months
This is the face she would make when told to smile
We couldn't get him to look and smile at the same time
She is the cutest!
The best kids, getting ready for a new brother

We love her big blue eyes
Christian's best attempt at a happy smile
Dylan has been losing teeth left and right, just got his "glasses" and is probably the best 8 yr old in the world.

Camping with the Boys 07/09

Image
This whole summer I (Dad) have promised to take the boys camping. Well, now that summer is past the half way point, sister Shaylynn has been born and the boys have been reminding me lately of my camping promise. On Saturday I decided it was as good a time as any. What a great little getaway. With the last couple of weeks being so busy and full, the overnighter was just what we needed to create a lasting memory. We headed about an hour southwest of Denver to Pike National Forest and ended up driving on some dirt roads, looking for "Rascally Bears" and hiking all over. This is one of my favorite pictures. It captures both boys perfectly. Dylan was cautiously keeping Christian from the edge and Christian was purposely closing his eyes because he didn't want to be in the picture. We love both of them so much. Here are the boys "ghosting". Not sure what it means. Christian kept saying the night was "ghost" and they loved running around with headla...

Beautiful Life

Life is so good but also so hard.  Is it just me, or do we as women automatically place unrealistic expectations on ourselves?  I know I do.  And it's very difficult to escape those expectations once they've become our "standard" of who we think we should be.  At what point do we say enough is enough, I'm just fine being my imperfect self.  Because really, none of us are perfect.  I wake up every morning at 6am and begin my morning exercising.  I love the feeling of being physically strong and one of my favorite things to do is to get outside and run.  Call me crazy but I actually enjoy training for marathons.  I have one coming up in October and I'm super excited about it.  I'm so glad that I discovered my love for running and it has helped me in so many ways.  I can't even begin to express how grateful I am to my Heavenly Father for my healthy body that allows me to run and keep up with my five children.  But everyday I have ...

Motorcycle fun with the kids...

Image
We were finally able to get out as a family and ride motorcycles this past weekend.  A big thanks to Leif and Jacove for letting us come up to their property in the mountains and use the homemade track.  Between the 3 families, there were a whole bunch of kids cruising around having fun.  Even Natali jumped on the boys XR70 and cruised around.  She stopped long enough for a quick pose and was off again.  Generally we wear more than flip flops, at least helmets, but the picture is better this way. Dylan started riding the little XR70 last year and was very, very, very cautious.  In fact, I was pretty sure we were going to show up and the other kids might be a little intimidating.  It took him a couple of warm up laps and he was ready to go.  I taped one of his first laps, and lets just say this is night and day progress from last year.  His bike was beginning to think it only had 1st gear.  He was regularly in the higher 2 gears and ha...
