The Harvest

This year has been one big roller coaster of a ride for our family. Amist all the begining of the year bed rest and having to be oh so very careful Aaron was able to build me some garden boxes and I was able to sit in a chair and plant things. It was our first garden. I would say that even though about half of what I planted didn't come up what did come up did wonderful. I wish I had taken more pics of it. Soo here is what we did get, cucumber's, tomatoes, butternut squash, pumpkins, dill, bell peppers, onions, carrots, lettuce, radishes. I would say over all it was a very good year! Next year I am sure we will do better. We did plant a pear tree this year and hopefully in a few years we will be able to enjoy the fruits of that.

The kids at the cemetery. They were very well behaved! And it was the first time that our kids met Karis. ( hope I spelled that right)
Cait and Karis instantly became best friends! It was super cute!

Me!

Me, Cait and Karis!

Noah and I! Sure do love this sweet little boy!

The Fam at the burial!

One night Paul let his kids spend the night with mine. I know you are all thinking that I am crazy, it was Aaron and I and 5 kiddos sutff into one small bed room at Lana's. But here is the amazing part I got them all ready for bed and set up there bed stuff and then I sat in the rocker feeding the baby and singing to them and they all went right to sleep. They all slept all night long without any problems. They got up the next morning happy as could be. It was fun and the kids sure did love it!

Aaron and I!

Noah!

Ammon looking tuff!

A year ago Aaron's dad passed away. We decided that he needed a headstone and place to be buried. So thanks to my parent's ( who own a headstone co) for getting us the headstone, we were able to take it with us and now Aaron and his sibling have a place to go visit their dad. While we were there we went to the park and bbq'd and had some fun with birthday's and such. Over all it was a pretty good trip. Here are some pics...

Veronica Two months old...

Ok so I know I have fallen behind. I have become what is referred to as a "soccer mom" being a stay at home mom now that my kids are getting older is soooo much busier than I was anticipating. Between taking Ammon to school and picking him up at the bus stop, taking him to karate and gymnastics, then there is Cait who has play group and dance, and to top it off I have Veronica who is rapidly becoming oh so fun and sweet. My life right now is super full. Oh did I mention that I joined the PTA. Well I did.

Veronica is now two months old and she smiles and will talk to you with her sweet little cooo's. She is a super good baby for the most part. She eats and sleeps really well, there are a few nights here and there that she can definetly give me a run for my money. But for the most part I have nothing to complain over. She is a very strong baby and even her cry is super sweet. I love this little girl soo much. Ammon and Cait love her so much and they try very hard to be careful around her.. unless she is sleeping then they think it is funny to wake her up.. not so funny to me. Cait will even try singing to her little sis if she is fussy and I would she probably about half of the time Roni will stop and listen and or go to sleep. It is really sweet to watch. Anyhow enjoy the pics!
