Ragnar

Justin ran the Ragnar for the first time this year. He ran with a group from Star Valley but they were an Ultra group so they only had 6 instead of 12 runners. Justin ran 34 miles! They did great and Jutin had a great time. We were all so proud of him!

Happy 7th Birthday Peyton

Peyton was so excited for his birthday this year. He just couldn't wait! He wanted a yummy oreo cookie cake and Justin Beiber decorations. We had friends come over to play, we went to Idaho Falls to Blast off and then had family over for cake and ice cream. So we had lots of fun celebrating Peyton's birthday. Peyton is such a sweetie. He is so loving, kind and funny. We sure do love him!

5K/10K

Brayden and Justin ran in a race in May. Brayden ran the 5k and Justin ran the 10K. They both did awsome and had a great time. Way to go boys!

Easter

Easter

While we were in Salt Lake we had an Easter egg hunt with grandma and grandpa Harrison. Then we went to the city easter egg hunt. There were so many people there it was crazy!! The kids got some candy and we saw the easter bunny so all was good! The kids were exctied to see what the easter bunny brought to our house. We had a fun easter day!

Spring Break

Over spring break me and the kids went to Salt Lake and spent a few days with Grandma and Grandpa. While we were there we went to the Living Planet Aquarium. Grandma and Grandpa Andrews met us there and we had a great time!

Sweet Moments

I love it when my kids are all getting along and love each other! Those are the sweet moments!

Caylin

Cara came and got me and said I need to show you something and she took me into the den where Caylin had scissors in one hand and a chunk of hair in the other. She was smiling and so proud of herself. So in the first picture she is smiling because she though she did a great job and then after I got after her she decided she wasn't too happy anymore. Luckily it wasn't too bad and you can't really tell.

Pine Wood Derby

Brayden had his first Pine Wood Derby! He was so excited!! Justin and Brayden did a great job on his car. On race day Braydens car did pretty good and he came in 6th place. He was happy and we had a great time!

Fishing

The boys went ice fishing and Peyton was the only one who caught a fish and it was a good one. He was so proud of himself!

Wrestling

Wrestling season has started! We went to the first wrestling tournament of the season this weekend. The boys did great and it is fun to watch. Let the fun begin!

Peyton's toothless!

 

 

Peyton's two front teeth were loose. He was working on getting the one out. One day he came home and decided he wanted to pull it. So he worked on it and worked on it and finally got it out. He was so excited. A few weeks later he was eating an apple and out came the other tooth! He looks so cute with no front teeth. It makes him look so big too!!

Happy 9th Birthday Brayden

We had a great time celebrating Brayden's 9th birthday. We had Grandma and Grandpa Harrison and Abby come for the weekend to visit us. We went tubing and snowmobiling with some of Brayden's friends and then we had cake and ice cream with family. Brayden wanted a army cake. I think his cake turned out pretty cool! We had a fun day. We are so blessed to have Brayden in our family. He is so fun, energetic, happy, intense and so sweet. We love you so much Brayden!

Fun in the snow

 

 

 

 

We had a fun weekend playing in the snow. Grandma and Grandpa Harrison and Abby came to visit. We were able to have fun playing in the snow and celebrate Brayden's birthday. We had a great time!

Happy Anniversary

 

 

 

 

This year we celebrated our 10th anniversary. We decided to celebrate by heading to Eden Utah. We stayed in a condo there and spent a day skiing. Neither of us have been skiing since we have been married. We realized we had forgotten how much fun that is. We had a great day. Not much snow but the sun was shining and we were along. It was a great little get away!

What a girl!

 

Cara is my fashion queen. She wears at least 5 outfits a day. She loves to get dressed herself and they are always quite the outifts. On this day I told her to get ready so we could go pick up the boys from school and this is what she came out with.

Christmas Day

We had a great Christmas this year. When the kids woke up there was a note from Santa that said he made a mistake and left our presents at the wrong house. Brayden was a little upset because there were no presents from Santa and he couldn't read the note because it was in cursive. We figured out that he left them at Grandma Janadene's house. So we headed up to her house and found all of our stockings and presents. It was a fund Christmas!

Grandma Karen's House

 

 

 

 

We were in Salt Lake right before Christmas for my nephew Kyle's wedding. So while we were there we had Chrsitmas at Grandmas house. We had lots of fun

Santa Clause

 

 

 

 

 

The Thayne Fire Department had a great Chrismtas party this year. We had lots of fun making crafts, frosting cookies and seeing Santa. The kids were so excited to see him and get their presents.

Getting the tree and Gingerbread houses

We had kind of a crazy time getting the tree this year. The day started out 10 below zero and it wasn't much warmer when we headed out to get the tree. The kids did really well for quite a while but when they got cold they were done and we stil didn't have a tree. So we headed back to the truck and Dad and Brayden went to get the tree. They did a great job and got us a nice tree. Then that night we made gingerbread houses. We had a great day.

Merry Christmas

 

We would like to wish you all a very merry Christmas! We hope that you are all doing well and enjoying the holiday season. We are doing well here in Wyoming. We are enjoying life and we are trying to keep up with the kids and all of their activities. Have a happy New Year!
