The girls first RACE

The girls school was having a fun run in a couple of weeks so I decided to take the girls to see if they could run a mile.  Taylor knocked it out in no time and ended up running 3 miles!  Sadie about 3/4 of the way day started crying so I did the rest with her.  She was so happy to be done and ended up going another 1/2 mile.  Raigen lasted about 1/2 mile then was chasing birds, picking flowers, and balancing on cement barriers. Haha.

 So race day came and holy cow it was COLD!!!!!  I had to bundle little G in a snowsuit.  The girls were so excited to run.  Well the race started and Taylor took off, someone stepped on Sadie's shoe which fell off and she ended up falling on the ground.....tears......then Raigen fell.....more tears......lets just say it wasn't as fun as I thought it was going to be.  So I cheered them on running with Raigen.  Sadie started to run again and finished.  Once me and Raigen crossed she started crying because she didn't win.  Holy emotions!  Good thing someone was making balloon animals.  I'm so proud of the girls for running.  Taylor loved it and I think she will be a natural runner.

Please note this was taken BEFORE the race :).

So behind.....

Lots of cute pictures ahead.

Hair pulling has begun....

 We went to Idaho and had lots of fun at the park. By we had fun the girls played while the boys slept.

Garrett and cousin Hunter

 Whenever I go in to put G's binky in his mouth he always grabs my hand like "mom you are NOT going anywhere."  LOVE LOVE LOVE it.

 My baby LOVES me.  I'll take it while I can because before too long he's going to be his dad's little buddy.

Fun times

One night Raigen asked me if she would could take a picture with my phone.  I told her yes.  I thought she wanted a picture of Garrett so I was trying to get him to smile when she says "no mom I wanna take of a picture of you."  So she does and I say can I see it.  So as I'm looking at it she sighs and says "see mom your just perrrrfffffect!"  I just started to cry.  If only we could see ourselves through their eyes.  To them we are perfect and to ourselves we should be too. 

Picture Raigs took

 We got to have our cute cousins over for a sleepover one night.  The girls were so excited to have Madison and Saige spending the night.

GO UTES!!!!

 We decided to go down to our nephew Cammon's football game one night.  Turns out it was pouring rain the whole first half so we crammed in the van to watch him.

 Then it stoppped raining and we enjoyed the rest of the game outside.  It was Garrett's first football game!

Jeremy Turned 33

This man of mine turned 33 in Aug!  Love him more than he will ever know.  We are so blessed to have him!  I really lucked out with this guy :).

WE LOVE BABY GARRETT!!!!!!

Girls Started School

The girls started school in Aug!  Taylor is in 2nd grade, Sadie in K, and Raigen started Preschool.  We decided to try out a new charter school and so far it's been fantastic!  The girls are loving it and I'm loving the uniform style.  It's a little bit of a drive (like 5 miles away) haha, but so worth it!
