We are very glad to be home. We had fun in AZ but like Dorthy Said, "There's no place like home." I couldn't agree more. We took the kids to the Choo Choo Train park in the pouring down rain. Jason hiked camelback mountain and smoked my mom and gerry who by the way climb the thing everyday. The kids got to see all there grandparents and my cousin and his wife, Everyone was there. The kids got way to way to much stuff, but love it all. Thanks everyone. Hope everyone had a wonderful new year. We spent New years with my dad and lois and her kids, it was fun. Anyways Stay warm out there. Love Kayla

Merry Christmas...

We made it to AZ we were going to leave on saturday but caught an earlier flght out on Thursday to Surprise my mom for christmas. Lucky us all the flights on Sat. were cancled form seattle to phx. We want to wish everyone a Very Merry Christmas. We hope it is wonderful. I will post pictures from our trip when we get home maybe sooner if I find some alone time. Love to all from us.

Konner is 3...

Brothers aren't they wonderful.

Konner a week and a half old.

Yesterday was a sad day at our house. It marked 4 years that we have been without our baby girl. We love you and miss you Jordan.


Oh my how time flies. I cant believe that my baby is three. He had a wonderful birthday. We have been watching a little girl 4 days a week, That is a handful. It is very different when they are your own kids. I would never make it with a daycare. We are getting ready to leave in 9 days for AZ for christmas with the kids, we got jason to take a couple days off from work, that is a hard thing to do.
We get to see jason's dad and my family. I am so excited to have a big christmas with everyone this year. Wish us luck on the Airplane. At least this time i have some help.

Happy Thanksgiving....

Project with uppercase living


Click on this photo to see chase's face, sooo cute.
Well We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
We did, we went to yakima and saw my cousins and
then came back and went to my grandmas to see my
dad and everyone from Lois's side of the family.
We had never met her oldest son. Konner learned
how to play nintendo Wii at my cousins house.
Pretty Funny. He loves the Car race.

A couple weeks ago we went to the bottom of nanuem
and had Hailey Gress take some Family pictures so i
could finish a project on our entry way wall. Great pictures Hailey.
The kids had a wonderful time riding the horses and playing around.
I had a uppercase living and sentsy party, it was very fun.
I had quite a few people show up. I will post a picture of the
uppercase living, that is what i used for our entry way wall project.



Hope you all have a wonderful Week.
Good Luck in the Crazy Getting Ready for Christmas Weeks.
Love Kayla

Cowboy Hats & Christmas Lights...

The other day I ask konner if he and chase wanted to take a bath while i took a shower. He says yes. I went to get towels and diapers, clothes, ect. While i was doing that konner had gotten undressed, turned on the tub and pluged it, then got in. Chase had also got in but doesn't know how to undress, so he started to take a bathe in his pj's. Konner got a cowboy hat because we are going to have some family pictures taken. He was very excited to go to the store and get a new hat. Now i can't get him to wear it. the picture is only because chase had it on first and he didn't want brother to have it. Last weekend Konner and i put up Christmas lights. I didn't want to so early but you know it was kinda nice not freezing my butt off doing it. We are going to AZ for christmas so were not doing any decorations in the house. We just found out about the polar express train ride, in AZ through the grand canyon with santa and presents, cookies and hot coco, so we are taking the kids to do that next year for christmas with there grandparents.


By the way we are almost done putting our fence up, Jason and his brother got the north side and the east side finished so we jsut have to hang rail around the yard ,and finish a small pasture.

Pumpkin Time...

This is the Centerpiece gorgeous don't you think so?

The kids had a wonderful time carving pumpkins. Although they did not like the goop inside of them. Jason borrowed a semi truck and set of trailers from kelsey to get a load of hay, so we took the kids for a ride in the big truck i wish everyone could have seen konners face it was so cute. the absolutley loved the ride. The whole time he was saying "konner ride big truckee" By the way he got to ride in the passenger seat while chase and i sat back in the sleeper area. I am getting older but time has gone by so fast i don't feel 26 which I am today. Here are some pictures of the kids and there pumpkins and driving the big truckee. Oh one more thing if you need a great idea for a centerpiece for your table i made one with a pumpkin and it is beautiful, i will post that picture as well. Take care.

Same old thing...

We found this wool woven rug at target for 6.99 in the home clearance shelf Huge Score.

Konner in his new "CARS" Bedroom he loves that movie

Parker eating cake.

Parker's Birthday Cake, Sydnee designed, I decorated it.


isn't Fall wonderful, this is my favorite time of year. My cousin moved to town to start school at central so we have a babysitter. We went to birthday dinner with her on wednesday night at the roadhouse grill, it was really good food, it was also kind of weird going back into my families old resturant, memories. Parker turned one on the 18th so we went to his birthday party. We have still been up to the same old thing aroud here Fencing. Jason only has 40 some posts left to put in the ground for this year. The kids and i got some beautiful maple trees from central nursery and planted this weekend, we still need a few more trees for the back yard it is bare and boring. I would love to put a rock waterfall in the corner and put a couple of goldfish in it but have no clue where to start. The kids have been getting packages from grandma and papa williams with lollypops and money for there bank accouts, and little toys. They love to go to the mailbox and open anything that come but mail from grandma is the best at our house.
Hope everyone has a good week.

Kids Braces and Parties

I drive by this horse everytime we go down #6 rd i just love him

Well in the last two weeks we went to the hospital and got to see Skylee. She is so cute, and Becca did great. Congradulations you guys. The kids are good although i wish the teeth comming in did not hurt so bad chase is having a heck of a time with that. The kids got a night with daddy alone, sydnee and i went out for some drinks and then we went to see "The Women" Total chick flick but good, then we went back for a few more drinks. I know sounds crazy but i have not done anything close to that in 4 years. The other big thing in our house is mommy got braces, they kind of hurt. Daddy is leaving friday night to go on the high hunt for deer, so the kids and i are going to laura and eddies wedding with uncle ryan, and maybe my cousin stephanie. Have a wonderful weekend.

Fair Time

Best Grandpa and Daddy Ever










So we did the fair thing on saturday man oh man was it ever cold. The kids had fun, thats all that matters. We went to the rodeo friday night with jon and meghan sandvig. Jason was in the wild cow milking. I was not nervous untill i saw him in the arena on his horse. He was awesome, best lookin cowboy i have ever seen. My mom left today to help get my grandma home she had a knee replacement last monday and a heart attack on Sunday so we have also been in yakima a bit. Grandma is doing ok. anyways have a good week.
