Ainsley!

Ainsley is a very unique little boy. When he was born, he broke the mold. He entertains and frustrates all at the same time. He is indescribable. He has started to sing song on his cd's and quoting movies and imitates everyone. It is so funny and I have tried over and over to catch him on video and he turns and gives me a cheeses grin. Well today I was successful. We were at MacEnzie's therapy and the boys were distracting, as always, so I took them to the elevators. To make a long story short we found a drinking fountain. Lets just say he was just too short.

Leaves are Falling All Around!!!

This past week we have had some really good weather and everyday I look at all of the leaves all over the lawn and think "we need to jump in them". Life is really busy so we have not had time. Well today Grady and Cooper(cousins)came to play and so we bundled up and went outside and raked leaves. It was a little chili but the boys didn't mind. The boys didn't know what to do at first but it took no time before Rhylee was making angels in the leaves. They had a lot of fun and even baby Cooper liked the leaves.

Halloween

This year Halloween lasted all week. Ok not really but MacEnzie had 3 different parties, Rhylee had a party and then on Saturday we took the kids trick-or-treating. We met Shay and Callie in Helena and had dinner. Then we went to a trunk-or-treat. The kids were so funny. Ainsley really liked the idea that other people gives him candy. He kept going to the cars over and over. Then we went to the nursing home. While the people were giving candy to the kids, Ainsley would sneak in and grab handfuls and then they would give him one. He learned if he stood there long enough they would keep giving him candy. Lets just say we had so much candy when we got home. The kids had so much fun and they loved to dress up. Everyone thought MacEnzie was sooo cute and Rhylee loved his "engine turtle" costume (that is what he told everyone). Ainsley didn't care what he was just as long as he got candy.

Guess who is 30!

Dallas has celebrated his 30th birthday a couple of weeks ago. It was a boring birthday, he worked all day. We were not able to celebrate until the Sunday after. So on Sunday Shay and Shawn and there families came out to the farm and had cake and ice cream with us. We had a nice dinner and lots of fun conversation.

Rhylee's 1st day of Pre-school

Last week Rhylee had his 1st day of headstart. He was so excited to go. He dressed really fast and grabbed his new spiderman backpack and was ready to go. He was so excited and has made 3 new friends. He loves to go and eat and was so excited to pick out his backpack. A week later he still loves to go and has even had homework and was so excited to do it. I just hope this lasts for the next 15 years.

MacEnzie's First Day of Kindergarten

MacEnzie has started Kindergarten. She was so excited to go. She loves to ride the bus and loves going every day. She is growing up so fast. I can't believe she is old enough to go to school.

Family Reunion

We went to a family reunion in Bear Lake. It just happened to be one of the coldest days of summer. The wind blew and then it rained. It was enjoyable to sit under blankets and catch up with everyone. One the way home from Bear Lake we took a little detour to Yellowstone and Jackson Wyoming. It was still cold but we had a lot of fun. The kids love to be outside and thought it was so fun to sleep in a tent. We saw some animals, pretty country, and Old Faithful.
