Tis the Season 2011

Almost Christmas, hard to believe another year has almost come and gone. Here's wishing everyone a wonderful holiday season with family and friends.

His Name

Cort wrote his name for the first time by himself, his is the bottom. Juan wrote the top one for him to follow. He did a pretty good job if you ask me.

Pigtails

As you can see she can wear pigtails, but the question is do you thinks she like them or not??

Staheli Farms 2011

This year we finally made it to Staheli farms to pick pumpkins, Cort and Camille loved all the animals and activites to do, and the kids rode on their first hay ride to go and pick pumpkins. We got some pretty great pumpkins that we carved, which I forgot to take pictures. Thanks nana and papa for taking all of us on this little adventure.

Cort's School Halloween Program

At Cort's school they have a little Halloween Party and Program for the parents, these are the pictures from his day, He of course was all dressed up in his bumble bee costume and ready to sorta sing.

Halloween 2011

Here my cute kiddos in their Halloween costumes, we were leaving to take Cort to his school party. Enjoy more photos to come from our weekend picking pumpkins and enjoying fall.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!!!

Pre- School Photos 2011-2012

Wow, hard to believe I am now one of those moms who has to get school photos. Only a short five months and I will be sitting with the other kindergarten moms getting ready to send my kid to public schools. Wow, I do not know how I feel about that right now, all I know for now my Cort loves his school, loves his teacher Miss Gwen and thinks she is really awesome and still asks if he can go to school each day. I hope that sticks around awhile. I also hope he get his dad's math skills, and english skills from his mom.


So enjoy my preschool kid cause something tells me the teen years are just around the corner for me!!!





ps mom was at the doctor with Camille so dad was on picture day following swim lessons. I may be having flash backs right now to a pink dress and my dad curling my hair for my first school photo when I was Cort's age. Someday maybe that photo will make it on to the blog who knows for sure!!

Just a Little Preview....

If this little bumblebee transformer comes to your house in a couple of weeks trick or treating, please be generous and give him some candy!!!

Cort starts Preschool

Cort started school.. well preschool that is. He stared back in August and he loves it. He goes two days a week, but he would like to go everyday. There were no tears at least from Cort, mom was a little sad. But I have found something to do with my three hours two times a week with only one child at home. She still naps so I have been catching up on my zzzz's...

Please note the above picture Camille thinks her brother is pretty cool and I am also teaching her well how to steal that spotlight from the first born.. she is doing a pretty good job!!!!

Camille almost 2 years

In just a few days we will celebrate this little girls 2nd birthday. She is getting so big and has such a personality it just surprises me everyday. She learns something new every day and amazes me at how smart she is getting. And not to mention she looks just a little like me...

Fall Swimming Lesson #1

Cort just finished his fall swimming lessons, he was in level two so he was learning to swim more unassisted and he was getting pretty good at it, we have two weeks off and then we will go back for the 2nd fall session for him.

Bieber Fever

Sometimes we have Bieber Fever at our house, cause baby..baby...baby...my baby..baby..baby

One Last Ride to Say Goodbye

We took Great Grandpa Caldwell on His Final Ride to his Final Resting Place. He Made the Last Ride From Emery to Vernal on August 20, 2011 and in style, we just needed two Harleys to take him there. And just in case you are wondering, yes that is my mom riding the black trike. Until we meet again.. we hope you enjoyed your last ride.

Jump, Jump

Right before Corts Birthday my mom and dad bought this indoor trampoline for the kids, it has been a hit with them, aside from the three plus hours it took Juan to put the bungees on this crazy thing so they could jump, he started around 10:30pm and we were done by about three in the morning. I guess that is why Ash and I always put together the kids toys on Christmas Eve Night that and Juan was always working when we were in Salt Lake.

Swimming Lessons

Cort has been taking swim lessons for three weeks, almost four and then we have a two week break before we go back to start fall lessons on august 22nd. His first group was all boys and a little bit of crazy with six three to five year olds, this group has two girls and two boys, more photos of that group coming soon.
