Fall hike

We decided to take a hike up wheeler canyon 9/2012. The fall leaves were amazingly beautiful. Such bright colors. We had so much fun and the kids loved it!

Jackson Hole

Erik rode Lotoja again this year 9/2012. It wasn't the best race, Erik had been sick all week then he broke a spoke on the way to Preston.  We continued on to Jackson with my parents anyway. They love to come watch the race. Our little cabin was great and the kids loved it.  In downtown Jackson they always have an art fair that weekend so the kids got to finger paint . We had a nice weekend. It is such a pretty area.

Hannah is 9!

Hannah turned 9 this year September 2, 2012.  I can't believe it.  She is such a beautiful girl, she is a great helper at home and is complimented by her teachers at school for being so kind to others.  We love you happy bday.

Hannah had a late night friends party. They had a lot of fun...pizza, movie, presents & night games.

Kate's first soccer game

Kate started playing soccer this year 8/2012.  It's really the first big thing she has done herself.  She was so excited to play like Hannah & Cameron.  She did great, scored some goals, and had a huge smile the entire game.

More summertime

The annual fishpond at the Buttars family party. A tradition that started out my grandparents back dining room window. I remember always looking forward to it, and hope my kids do too.

Cameron's 6th Birthday

My favorite boy is 6. Cam's birthday was July 11th. He wanted a build a bear like his sisters. So he & I had a day & went down. It was his idea for a silly face picture. What a boy. Love you Cam!

Just because...

Kate wanted me to take her picture. What a cutie!

Annual 4th July bike parade

The kids rode their bikes again before the parade. They love decorating them. Thanks to my awesome husband who walks with them every year.

Our new yard...today

Well 4 months later here is how it looks. We are happy with it. We have a few more things to do in the spring. But what a relief, all our hard work paid off.

Yard redo

Memorial weekend we started our yard remodel. We ripped up all the grass, brought dirt in to level everything, and brought in some rocks to make the back yard and front yard seperate levels.

After a month of hard work, sweat, picking up rocks, and manual labor weight loss...we hydro seeded at the end of June.

Our second zoo trip was with the Jenkins'. The kids had a lot of fun playing with their cousins.

Zoo trip #2

My favorite picture...Cameron holding up Avery so she could see the giraffes.

Zoo X 2

We went to the zoo twice in 2 weeks. The first trip was with grandma Jones. Our first look at the new Rocky shores exhibit.
