A fall trip to cascade!

Grandpa Taylor invited Ry up to go hunting up by their cabin...so me & the kids got to & keep grandma company! yay!

Davis was showing Lauren how to pounce like a lion

Playing in the little stream as usual

Grandma Taylor took us for a little walk...it was beautiful!

 I love my little kids

Lauren found herself a walking stick

 What a beautiful afternoon...life sure is good

Grandpa Taylor & Ryan were going to try one more location

Thanks Grandpa & Grandma Taylor! We sure are lucky to be able to play up at the cabin & get away!

Just an ordinary day...no ordinary miracle!

Davis wanted to wash some of his dishes.  So I gave him my apron & filled the sink with warm bubbles.  And the wonders began...

The skill of canning...my mom's got it

10.18.10
My mom helped me...well in these pictures, it looks like she is doing it all, but we were canning my very own...drum roll please, garden grown tomatoes! My mom is teaching me what seems is a lost art.

Lauren enjoys a bit or 2 as we finish up

I had to get Davis in his world of lego building land with older cousin James

Happy Birthday Ry!

We had our family over for homemade scones & honey butter.  I'm trying to keep the tradition alive! We lit a bonfire & started up the projector...we enjoyed the disney cartoon of The Legend of Sleep Hallow.  It was lots of fun

What a fun night! Thanks Ry for all you do! I love you & thanks for blessing my life & all those around us

some simple pleasures...reading & play'n at the park

I was putting things away, when I heard some quiet whispering...I peeked into the kids' bedroom & found them reading to each other! Love it!

Feeding the ducks

What a happy kid!

Davis wanted to lead us on an adventure!

What a cute little miss! Love the profile pictures, even though her hair is all messy

Whoever invented swings?! What instant happiness one can experience!

Art in the pArK!

Ry grew up going to Art in the Park....His dad is a retired Fine Arts perfessor at BSU...so its totally their scene which I LOVE!

Davis chill'n while he eats a yummy pronto pup & proudly sport'n mom's shades

We spied Dad & Lauren eating an Idaho ice cream spud...thought they were sneeky

We thought we would sign Davis up for soccer, & it turns out that he isn't too bad!  He must have gotten his killer skillz from his bad dad!

He is starting a "victory" dance...

Still dancing...
