Island Park
In August we went to Island Park with my family. We stayed in a really nice cabin. We went through the park, visit West Yellowstone and went to the Playmill Theater. We relaxed at the cabin, watched movies, did crafts, played games, soaked in the hot tub, swung on the swings, went on drives, and went to Big Springs to feed the fish. Matt and Rich also took the kids fishing. The kids especially loved spending so much time with their cousins. We had a great time. Thanks Grandpa & Grandma.
Katelyn's 7th Birthday
A night at the movies watching “The Tooth Fairy”. We had a concession stand where they could buy treats with “Katelyn Dollars”. Afterwards we opened presents, had cake and the kids played. Her cousins Emily and Abby stayed over for a sleepover. Everyone had a great time.

Katelyn's new smile
Katelyn lost her first tooth Wednesday morning. She was trying to pull something loose with her teeth and instead yanked out a tooth. She came screaming holding her tooth. I though she had brook the the tooth off. After looking closer I realized it was her tiny little tooth with part of the root. She also had a tooth that was growing in behind this one. After the initial shock of loosing the tooth Katelyn looked in the mirror and thought it was kinda cool and very excited to know the tooth fairy would be coming. We'd been watching her front tooth thinking that would be her first tooth to come out since it was loose. We hadn't even notice that she had a tooth coming in on the bottom. Oops. She is excited that she can still whistle.
9th Anniversary
So I'm a little late getting this posted but now I think I'm caught out.
February 24 was our 9th anniversary. Time sure has flown by fast. We were married in the Timanogos temple. I love the phrase "for time and all eternity" What an amazing day it was. Despite the snow coming down while taking pictures I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day. 9 years later I am blessed to have 2 wonderful kids and husband I love dearly. I love knowing that because of that special day 9 years ago that we will be together for ever.

Friends
Tyler loves to play with his friends. Kristen, Mac and Tyler play so well together. It's great because they have fun and I can get my stuff done at the same time. I decided I need more dress up clothes for boys. Fortunately Mac was happy being Superman with a blanket around his neck.
Happy Birthday Tyler (Feb 19th)
2 1/2 years old
2 years old
1 year old
6 weeks old
I can't believe my little boy is 3. Boy has time gone by fast. He has grown so much lately. We are so blessed to have Tyler in our family. He loves his big sister and loves to do what ever she is doing. He is Daddy's little shawdow. If Daddy is working on something Tyler is right there next to him asking questions and wanting to help. He loves to play basketball with his Daddy and was so excited to get his very own basketball to match his Daddy's big one. He loves to be Mommy's helper. He is full of energy and keeps us all on our toes. He is excited to be a big boy and it is very important to him. We are hopefully towards the end of potty traing and he is very proud of his "big boys" after he goes potty he reminds us that he is now a big boy and doesn't need his baby diapers anymore. We are very excited too.
For Tyler's Birthday Katelyn and I decorated the house. Tyler was so excited to wake up to banners and balloons. For dinner we went to McDonalds with Grandpa and Grandma Jensen. After dinner we went home and opened presents. He was so excited for his presents. The next day (Saturday) we had 7 of his friends come over for a party. It was totally crazy the whole time but I think everyone had fun. I was very grateful that our friends Kevin and Tiffany stayed with their son and helped out.

Christmas Season
The Christmas Season started with a party with our Christmas Party at Uncle Eric's and Aunt Allison's house. We had dinner followed by a visit from Santa Clause. It is both entertaining to both the young and old.
On Christmas Eve Grandpa Gary and Grandma Sandra came. They went to dinner and a movie while we had a Christmas dinner, gift exchange and acted out the Nativity with the family. We had a great evening.
Christmas morning we work up and opened presents. The best was the excitement Katelyn had when she went in the front room and saw two big stuffed dogs from Santa. She came running in our room all excited and then went to try to get Tyler out of bed. They she went down to wake up Grandpa and Grandma. The kids were so excited opening all their presents. Tyler's favorite was a remote control train engine from Grandpa and Grandma. Rich also received a gift that surprised him. I had bought a remote control Hummer that was at the Scout Yard sale in the Spring. He had really wanted it. It ended up not selling and so I bought it afterwards and have had it hidden all year. I'm not sure who was more excited Rich or the kids. We enjoyed the day together at home. On Sunday Grandpa had to go home but Grandma went with us to Paradise. We spent the night at Grandma Ladell's and spent time with Uncle Paul, Aunt Barbara and the kids. On Monday we headed to Pocatello for the week. Rich enjoyed his much needed time off and enjoyed going to several movies with my dad. We had a great time in Pocatello.

Thanksgiving
We spent the Thanksgiving weekend in Pocatello. We were there Wed-Sunday. Jen & Matt's family was there as well. It was so good to see them. We have really missed seeing them since they have moved to Oregon. The kids loved spending time with their counsins and Grandpa and Grandma. Friday Uncle Paul and Aunt Barbara came with their kids. We all went to Hoilday Inn that night for Pizza, Swimming, Movies and games and then more swimming in the morning. Thanks Grandpa! I'm am so grateful to have such a wonderful family and to only be 3 hours away from home. They kids also loved their new PJ from Grandpa and Grandma and riding Uncle Kevin's 4 Wheeler
