Halloween Night.....Trick or Treat!

Well October has just flown by! We had a great month. These are a few pictures that capture what we've been up to lately!

Arizona

I got to go visit Amber and Richard and adorable baby Brady. I had so much fun, and thuroughly enjoyed the mid-80 degree weather. I must say I missed my sweet family, but came back refreshed and with renewed appreciation for each of them. It was fun to see Tim and Shirell/family, Ron and Audra/family, and Ben and Anyia/family.

Princess Mae on her 4th birthday!

Oregon trip

Well we've just returned from a wonderful trip to Oregon. We were blessed to be able to be there for the passing and funeral service of Casey's Grandpa Daniels. What a wonderful man he was. We also made a lot of fun memories and enjoyed the fabulous Oregon blackberries! We had fun with Grandma and Grandpa B, aunts, uncles, and cousins.

Ahhh Summertime.....

Well this summer has been great so far. It's hard to believe it's almost August! The kids have had fun swimming, camping, and playing with neighbors and cousins. We bought a tent trailer back in the spring, but found that camping with our kids at this point is a little too crazy. So we sold the trailer. I couldn't believe how fast it sold! Tent trailers must be a hot item right now--we had sooo many calls. Anyway, we did have some fun. Especially the kids. Marybelle is getting big. She started crawling (army crawl) about a week ago. They are all growing so fast!

Our first blog ever!

Well here goes.......our first blog! How Exciting! I'm hoping this will help keep all of our family and friends updated on our family. I'll keep this one short to make sure it works. Thanks for looking!
