Our Story...

We live in small town Franklin, Idaho and absolutely love it!! Tim and I have been married for 11 years and we have three crazy, busy boys; Nicholas (Nic) is 9, Tyler (Ty) is 6, and Joshua (Josh) is 4 and a precious little girl (Alexys) who just turned 1. Tim works for the U.S. Postal Service as a Supervisor. I am a State Licensed Daycare Provider and Preschool Teacher. I love my job (most of the time) and I am so grateful for the opportunity that I have to be home with my kids. I don't have time for scrapbooking and so this is as close as it gets to preserving my family's journey through life.


Family...Ours is Forever.

precious...

Tim and the boys left one evening so I decided to pull out the camera and play dress up with my baby girl.....what can I say except precious....I'm so grateful to have this little one in our family.

 

What are you feeding me??

The brothers wanted to take turns feeding their little sister some baby food....they were having fun, but this face makes me wonder what she thought about the whole thing?? 

Science...

Nic had to do his 3rd grade science project and so we decided to find out who's mouth is cleaner, a human or a dog?  He had lots of fun checking the petri dishes after we swabbed his cousin's dog's mouth and his own mouth.  I can't say that I loved the whole science project experience (it's more work for mom than it is for the child).  Nic typed up everything for his poster and put it all together as well.  He was really proud of his work.

Field trip fun

I took my Preschool class on a field trip and decided to take Josh along with me.  The kids had so much fun and we got some really fun pics.  So glad I took Josh with me...it was extra fun to have him there.
Me and my boy

Not sure what to say about this pic...did he like the coat or not??

The kids and Fireman Scott

Climbing on the old firetruck

Don't play with matches!!  (love their expressions)

...pure sweetness

Ok, so maybe not sweetness, but definately cuteness.  This little girl is a spitfire!!  You wouldn't be able to tell from these pics would you?

His Grandma Denton gave him two of his favorite things...Pringles wrapped in $$...what could be better?

"Postworthy" March pics

We've been busy, here are a few pics that I thought were "postworthy".

Nic is such a good big brother.  There are a lot of Sundays before church that he holds his baby sister until she falls asleep.  He's awfully proud of his "Sis".

Josh was being really quite one day and when I walked into the laundry room, this is what I found :)

Alexys had her first taste of baby food this month.  Her favorites; bananas, squash and green beens.

Nic received his Wolf this month.  Lots of hard work on his part.  Great job Nic!!

Where has the time gone??

It has been so long since I've posted!!  Life has been so busy between school, daycare, preschool, my Relief Society calling, sports and so many other obligations I just can't seem to find the time to do anything extra....so, here are some pics that I took of the kids in February.  I will try to post more as I find the time.  It was a freezing cold day (I think like 23 degrees) and they were so good.  I love my kids and enjoy them so much.  They grow so fast!!
