Thankful!!

Here are some cute shots of Dalton (almost 3 months old here).




Playing dress up at Grandmas house.


What a cute family!! Just kidding Cody and Jewels!! Although I must say the kids are the cutest that I've ever seen!


One morning, I was told to hurry and come take a picture and when I came in with the camera this is what I saw.


Here are the girls holding Dalton.


Thanks Great Grandma Jensen....we love the slippers.


Here is some Thanksgiving prep.....the best part is sampling all the food. Yummy!










Here are the adorable turkeys we made. Thanks Jess. They were fun to make and eat.



Check out the kitty whisker scratch. He woke up one morning with that and I thought they looked just like kitten whiskers.

Cute picture of Dad and Dalton.


Here is the big boy at three months old.

Check out those thighs....they just burst out of that diaper. You can't even wrap your fingers around them. Just too much meat!

Fall Fun!

Here are the kids having fun in the leaves.......



















We love the fall!

Ashtyn's Halloween Dance!

Ashtyn is in a little dance class right now. She is learning tap and ballet. She loves it. This was her very first dance performance, which was performed in the basement of her teachers house, where her lessons take place. She is the one in the blue mermaid costume in the middle.

I always have great intentions and ideas of what to post but I am just too far behind. I looked at my numbers for posts per year and each year keeps getting less and less, when really I should be posting more and more. I am hoping to do better this year. Starting today.

Here is some shots from Halloween.















So another thing that we want to do better on this year is home improvement. We have been here 2 1/2 years and have little to show for it. So we started off last fall with a big improvement on the outside. We painted the house. I guess I shouldn't say we because we did it just after Dalton was born and so I didn't really do much. Our house has needed a new paint job since we moved in so wow what an improvement. So here is the before shot back in the summer.

And then here is the fall shot that was taken after the paint job.


We have had a few new things happen to us that we are excited about. One, I got a new do, which we love, me especially.


It is always nice to have a fun change once in a while. And the second thing is that we bought a new van. All I can say is finally!! I am soooo excited. I have been driving around in our nice little mazda for the last couple of years. And now with "D" here it has been nice and cozy. We have been fine all squeezing into the car but we were looking forward to having something bigger. Well, we have kind of been shopping and just looking but really felt like we should wait a little longer. So I was content and happy being cozy and comfy in our little car, but would drool at each van that I saw drive by while out and about. Well, now I have to pinch myself because I actually got one of the vans that I was always drooling about. A Honda Odyssey. And I can say, we truly all love love love our new van. It is perfect for us. We all fit in with room to spare. We could actually take a little trip in our van now. Yipee! It is a good color. It is in excellent condition and we are just so thankful that we were able to be blessed with the perfect opportunity to get it.



And finally here is just some fun pictures and fun things that we did in the last couple of months. Here is Dalton at two months old. He just keeps growing and changing so fast.



Here is the girls one morning reading books to Dalton.


Here is my mom and me going to Phantom when in came in October. It was awesome. She had never been to anything like that.


Here is Dalton at 2 1/2 months.


We went on a fun train ride that happens north of Spokane. It was so fun to ride and there and see the scenery. The kids loved it.
