Makayla our little dancer just loves dance... dance...dance. She had her Christmas Recital, and did very well. I love watching her dance.
She performed at the Dicken's Festival also.

Before the kids left to go out trick or treating, we made pumpkin pizzas and bone breadsticks, and halloween jello shapes. The kids loved it and has fun doing it!
We had a family halloween party at my sister's Michelle's house. The kids all love to play in their big backyard. We had lots of treats and yummy snacks!!
Playing the annual donut game!
Later when it got dark they built a fire and we sat around it. It was lots of fun to all be together!
Corben was baptized on Oct. 8 by his dad. It was his special day. I can't believe he is old enough to be baptized. He is growing up so fast! After his baptism we had a dinner at our house. It was so neat to have all our friends and family their to share this special day with!

All 3 of my girls did the Pine View Cheer Clinic this year! It was so cute to watch them. I was even suprised Brielle did it. She didn't even get scared.
Makayla loves to dance and cheer she is always the one that wants to be the first one to do it every year.
Brielle watching her leader. She loved being with all the other kids. She felt so big!!
This picture didn't turn out very good. But it had the panther in it, and my kids all LOVE the panther!!
Corben turned 8 and wanted a "Lego" friend party. He is so into Legos and loves to build them.
And these are the Lego party favors for all his friends to go home with.
He had 10 of his friends he invited to his party, and played lots of lego games. They especially had fun playing pass the lego with 2 teams, like an relay race. They had to carry it with a spoon acroos the room and couldn't drop it, The team that had the most in their bowl ant the end won!

All of his freinds had to do a challenge of who could come up with the most original creation from Legos.

Yeah!! We finally got our addition done on our house. It was quite the project, but I am so glad it is done. It is hard to still try to live in your house while you are working on it. But we managed and now we are so glad we did it. We love having a bigger living room and opened up our dining room. I especially love having a fireplace. So much Fun!!
We also added brick to our arch way and Brett did all the casing. So then it all ties in.
We did the rock and casing on the other side.
So the wall use to be where the beam is but we took it out and moved the windows back, and double our living room space. This was a great summer project for Brett. He did a great job on it!
We moved the door over more and did an arch way with brick where the old doorway use to be, and we just cased it in and added brick in to our house for some more texture. Brett did a good job matching our wood floor so you couldn't tell it was added on.
