Abi's first Cross Country meet

She did great, we are so proud of her!

Line up of 2nd grade girls from all the elementary schools in the valley.

Abi has purple capris on in the middle.

On your mark, get set, go.

She ran with Hilie most of the way.

Ben's 5th birthday

Party at Sky High Sports! He said it was the best birthday ever. 

 

More gifts on his actual birthday, including a new bike and skateboard.

This sweet boy used to be my little buddy that would go everywhere with me and hold on to my leg.  Now he's such a big boy that wants nothing to do with running errands with mom. He loves playing sports especially baseball, being physical, and has to be the silliest and funniest at all times. He goes until he drops, loves to be with Daddy in the garage, loves to help load things in the truck and go backpacking with Daddy. He loves to make his sisters laugh, loves our dog Maggie to pieces, loves to explore, he is shy and a crazy man at the same time. He could jump and do flips on our trampoline all day. His favorite thing to do at school is to build block towers with his friends and knock them down. He has a sweet little stutter, an adorable little smile, and a very likable friendly personality that makes him the life of the party. I can't wait to watch him grow up. We are so very blessed to have such a sweet, lovable, perfect 5 year old son. 

Papa came to visit and was so much help, we love it when he's around :)

Coug game

We had no plans to go to the Coug game but spur of the moment decided to drive to Pullman and find tickets outside the stadium. I love going to Pullman, Brad loves watching Cougar football, and the kids love eating lots of treats at the game. And we won! :)
