Our niece Shelby got married a couple of weeks ago! I can't believe how she

is all grown-up! Congrats you Cute Couple! Doesn't she look beautiful! Ashlyn was mesmerized by her all night

we had to have a picture with her :)

Here Ashlyn is watching Shelby's every move and

constantly commenting how pretty the "Princess Bride" is!

When they cut the cake and Shelby threw her boquet she hardly moved a muscle...

I think she was waiting for the prince to sweep Shelby right off her feet

to a dance!(she thinks that what happens when you get married is you dance...hey why not!)

Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas!

We had a wonderful Christmas filled with lots of Love and Laughter!

This is the first year we have cut down our own Christmas tree since Parker was a baby!

The kids had lots of fun and we might just make it Tradition.

Here it is before we cut it down (below)

And after (above)

We lost Kolter behind it one day. He spotted a Christmas ball under there

and there was no stopping him...it did take a minute to find him. Obviously he

is not too worried about being found!

We did get to visit Santa and to Kolter he was a very interesting man!

Ashlyn did have her concerns...reluctantly she did finally sit on his lap!

Happy Halloween...Finally!

Can't believe Halloween has come and gone already! Great Memories! Mr. Pumpkin himself gave us a visit!

Holy Trees!

Here is the pictures of our trees at our old house....and there is a pick-up under there if you look close! (this is a side view of all the trees that had to come down)
Hit one pick-up and completely missed the other!

How sad!

This is the last root....humongous!

And now this is what it looks likes!

Here is a few things we have been up to lately!

We have been so crazy I haven't

posted much lately, so here is a quick

peek at a little bit of our busy-ness!

Tanner has been scoring a few touchdowns!















Aunt Shannon put together a Harvest Dash right here in Newdale

We had a great time running!

We always sqeeze in a little recreation ....from water

to growing beards.........to doing a little art work........to taking a few scooter rides!

One of the big trees in front of our old house fell down in the night and smashed Aunt Shannon's pick-up across the road...so all three big trees had to come down! Very sad and very weird to see our house that way. It took two full days of clean up and almost all day power outage for half our town because a tree fell on the power line and broke the power pole right in two...it was also rotting!(I'll post some pictures of the pick-up later)

Our Anniversary!

Thanks for a wonderful 12 years!

Carter's birthday!

Already FIVE!

this is a little Frog...he has been begging for it for weeks!

And we of course had our 1st day of School!

Parker 5th grade- Mr. VanWagner

Tanner 2nd grade- Mrs. Coles

Seven Month Old Already

I can't believe

how time has passed

Kolter has been the best

baby....so so fun!
