Tanner's new room

Since we moved back into our house after returning from the mission field and having renter's in it Tanner's room the renter's painted a pepto bismol pink and he would not sleep in there. Alexis slept in the room until now. We redid the room in wolves and Tanner loves it. I do too. I think it turned out real nice. Tim did a good job on it. I helped some, but not as much as he had to do. I'm thankful for a wonderful husband who can do so many things. Anyways, Tanner is enjoying his room and loves to spend time in it.

Clothes, Friends, and birthday

If anyone still reads this blog you probably think we have gotten lost. We haven't, just don't get to the library very often anymore. It has been over a month since getting here so here are a few pictures.


Alexis's new outfit. She saw this at Cato's and wanted it. We don't buy her very many clothes because we have a friend that gives us a lot of clothes for Alexis. So I bought this outfit for her and she looks so cute in it.





Tyler and his best friend, Dylan. These two have been friends since Kindergarten. We have had a real hard time getting them together though since getting back from the islands. Dylan is involved in a lot of sports and his parents are very busy. So one night we stopped by his house and set up a time for them to get together. Dylan was able to come out to our house and spend the night. So I had to get some updated pictures of the two of them together.

Trevor's 12th birthday. Grandma Archibald made his cake again for him, which is very helpful to me. And his best friend, Daniel came over and spent the night. These two have been best friends since preschool.

Trevor and Daniel. (Trevor has grown very tall, Daniel is only a month younger than Trevor)

Trevor is 12

Trevor turned 12 years old on Feb. 1st. We will celebrate his birthday tonight with his best friend, Daniel coming over to spend the night. I will post pics the next time I get to the library. We are so thankful to have you in our lives, Trevor. Mom loves you very much.

Birthday, Christmas and Snow

It began to snow on Christmas night and the kids went out to play before it would melt.


Tanner celebrated his 9th birthday on Dec. 4th and we ate out at Cici's and his best friend, Jarrette came along.

Trevor's deer

Last week or so Trevor shot two deer within minutes of each other. He was floating around on cloud nine for a few hours afterwards. He is a real good shot and we are thankful for the meat from the deer. Good job Trevor!!!

Cookout

We had a cookout at our house the end of October. Here are some pictures from it. We enjoyed the time with friends and they seemed to enjoy their time at our home.

Here are a couple of our neighbors. Randy Shaver, and Mr. and Mrs. Latham

Roasting hotdogs.

Everyone loved the pinata. The kids and some of the adults alike. It was fun to watch them swing at it and hit or miss it. We got many laughs. Here is Tanner taking a turn.

Carson's turn.

Go Alexis!!!

Our newest married couple in our church. Ivan and Katie Newton.

This is Tonya. She wanted a turn also.

Here is Tonya again. Ivan would move the pinata away from her so that she was swinging at the air.

Here is my friend, Tammy and me. I spun Tammy around and she was so dizzy that she was about to fall down. I was trying to hold her up so she wouldn't end up on the ground. It was so funny!!

Tyler taking a turn.

Everyone enjoyed the hay ride also.

Our farm is growing

Some friends of ours gave us a horse. It is a small thing and his name is Monroe. He is the right size for the little kids. And Alexis loves it. She loves horses and so she has been enjoying riding him. He is a good horse over all so far.
