Going...Going...Gone...Bald is beautiful

Time for Carson's summer haircut. He has had it cut several times, but never shaved. We have been chewed out several times for, "cutting off all those beautiful curls!! What were you thinking?!" Oh well...it will grow back

And Brent had to have his done also!.

Our Little Dancer

Mailee started dance just after we moved to Burley. She loves it and does a pretty good job. She does both ballet and tap and likes them both equally. These are pictures from her end of the year performance! The Hair: one hour and half a bottle of hairspray...
The Costume: more money than such a small amount of material should cost...
The outcome: One happy three year old dancing her heart out!!! (I have a video of the performance, but can't get it to upload...pictures just did not turn out with the lights.)

We're back...and better than ever!


(A huge thanks to Zinser Photography for our AMAZING pictures)

We are finally back to blogging again and I'm not sure where to start! I guess start with the biggest news-Mattea Kaye, our beautiful baby born on January 8th. She is absolutely wonderful. She is happy and cuddly and all the precious things a new baby should be. Both Carson and Mailee and infatuated with her and are very protective. We are so blessed to have her.

January 9th


Three months old

In February we sold our house in Gooding and even made a profit off of it. It was such a HUGE blessing. Then we were able to purchase a new home just a week or two later. It is an older brick home, but completely remodeled inside-new carpet, kitchen, retextured walls-it is beautiful. Brent's favorite part is that it is on
1.88 acres. We are going to have a huge garden, an orchard and raise some turkeys! Farm livin' is the life for us! We have some work to do outside, but the inside is perfect. It is 3 bedrooms 1 1/2 bath with a huge kitchen and family room. My kids are so excited to have room again after our tiny rental. Currently, we are still in the process of unpacking and deciding where to put everything.



Our new house

That's our life in a nutshell...in 8 months we've done a lot, but if I kept going this blog would be eight pages long!!
