Hunter LOVES his hat collection


Like his mommy, Hunter rarely comes his hair and is forced to wear hats:-)

Jared's new friend


Baby Jared came to visit in January! He met Sophie for the first time and adores her! She is crazy about him too!

Everyday is an allergy day!


This is what happens when Connor eats BBQ sauce:-(

Sweet Lazy Daisy


In just one month Daisy has gained an appetite and an excitement in her eyes! She is such a sweet girl and I'm so happy to see her happy. I volunteer at the Meridian Animal Shelter and I brought her home Christmas Eve so she could have a warm soft bed. She loves being with us and even though she has severe arthritis, she's doing much better! Sophie isn't too happy that she's staying with us - but, too bad for Sophie - she has to learn that she's not the queen of the castle at all times.

Grooming Girl













I'm finally getting better and faster with my grooming! I have my stuff all set up at the "Doggie Day Spaw" so come and see me! The shampoo of the month is Chocolate Covered Strawberry, plus I always do a blueberry facial (tearless) that is deluxe!






4-wheelin' fun


Andrew LOVES, LOVES, LOVES his 4-wheeler and he goes riding with his buddies about once a month. They cover some treacherous terrain and I'm very glad he has life insurace for the rest of us!

My winter break









Bogus Basin is my new favorite winter retreat! Cold, but beautiful - lots of snow this year to enjoy. Hunter starts swimming lessons next Monday at the gym and skiing the following Wednesday! I'm excited for Hunter to go up the running carpet - it's great for kids. Pretty soon Hunter will be going down the slopes faster than me! Andrew is a snow-boarder (so we'll leave him home:-)








Connor and Grandma on the phone


Connor only interrupts his eating when Grandma calls! His diet of virtually nothing exciting keeps us looking for recipes and modifications to what the rest of us are eating. Connor is allergic to milk, soy, wheat, rye, barley, oats, peanut butter, eggs, mold, cocoa, tamarind, ascorbic/citric acid, and baker's yeast! Connor lives on rice milk, corn, ham, and yams.

Linder Farms family fun


We had so much fun around Halloween at Linder Farms. We had 20 tokens and the kids used them all to ride on the tractors, barrell train, and at the petting zoo. We went several nights until the boys were so tired they couldn't eat any more mini donuts.

XMAS


Hunter's Birthday!




Guess who's a big boy? Hunter is 4 years old and loving his preschool class - we just signed him up for swimming lessons too!


Summer train rides


Andrew loves taking us up to Horseshoe Bend to ride the "Thundermountain Lines!" The boys love the outdoor cars and the snack car the best. We've been on the Civil War ride, the Pumpkin patch ride, multiple summer rides, and the Polar Express ride.

My little prodigies!


These guys practice more than I do!

Halloween 2008: Thomas and the Transformer


I've given in to peer pressure - so here at last - the beginnings of our blog!

I know, I'm a little behind the times, and yes, I will eventually get on Facebook. But honestly, how does everybody have the time to keep up with all of these things??!!
