April 2017

We had our friends the Stevensons come down from Idaho and went to do some fun and creepy things with them!

This is Stockton, Maddex, and Whit. Stockton and Whit were born the same day. And Maddex is a couple years older. Whit looks like a giant ogrover!

We finished these super easy faux shiplap walls in our hallway and the master bedroom. So easy and so cute!

We also finished the subway tile backsplash in the kitchen. First time tiling together!!

And we redid our bedroom set!

Crew turned 10 this year and wanted a reece's cake. This was AMAZING!

Whit of course found this awesome splashing puddle at practice.

Drake and his buddy Broncs Baker.

Crew got a visit from his friend Shandon from Idaho.

October 2016

October brought more football, and of course Halloween. School was going well and we just tried to keep up with Whit!

Foot ball friends late night.

Crew and X.

Crew and I went on a fun field trip to learn about the ecosystems of the Great Salt Lake.

X, Cole, Crew.

Drake started Cub Scouts. He is a Wolf and Crew is a Bear.

Whit decided he liked my punk witch wig!

Drake got player of the week!

Drake was also the "Today is game day" photo.

 And Halloween was kind of a last minute thrown together thing. But we got through it.

This is the cute, calm Whit that finally gives us a break!

September 2016

I can't seem to just keep up with this blog....so once again....lots of posts to catch up!

September was our first month of full fledged tackle football. It was kind of crazy. But tons of fun. The boys worked hard and loved every minute. Dad was a little sad that this meant not much time for thr fall bow hunts. School had started and we were very busy. 

Whit keeps us laughing!

We changed out our front door which turned into a crazy project, but we love the new front door.

I guess Whit can fall asleep anywhere after being dragged all over for football practices and games!

Crew and Drake started wearing football jerseys on the Friday before their games.

My amazing brother Joshua won Silver Medal at the Paralympics in Rio!!

Crew won player of the week.

For Drake's birthday we went laser tagging as a family. It was so much fun. Whit loved every minute!

Drake turned 8 this year and was so excited!

He wanted a Stansbury Stallions cake since we were in football mode.

Car trips with dogs. Oh boy!

Whit found the perfect shoes from Dad's closet to compliment his monkey outfit.

We went to the Utah State Homecoming game with some great friends from Dayton and had so much fun!

Drake's 7th Birthday

Drake is a big 7 Years Old! He has a fall birthday, which always falls right on a hunt or a field trial. So he gets a lot of camping birthdays. This year was no exception. Rett had an elk tag and we were going hunting. So, his birthday cake, which started out really cute at home, got knocked off the truck dash while parking the trailer and smashed a little bit. So Peyton Manning on the top was put back on a little crooked. But I don't think Drake cared. He was still happy. He loved that he got to keep part of his cake. Which was a homemade carrot cake. That's his favorite! He is the sweetest boy. When asked by some grandparents what he wanted for his birthday his reply was " It doesn't matter. Presents aren't what is important. As long as I'm with my family I will be happy!" So cute! I love that little guy!
