{Family Reunion Trip}

 On January 25th, we headed to Island Park with the whole Fam where we spent the weekend in our friend's beautiful cabin. Austin's family met us up there for a fun filled weekend of relaxing, lots of snowmobiling, hot tubbin, sleddin, and having fun!

Brayden had quite the horrific experience when the cabin's steep roof piled with tons of snow came avalanching down on him(just the snow that it)!! He was buried and luckily everyone inside heard the loud noise and found him :) He still loves the snow though! :)

 

Austin, Jaxton, and Kevin

 

A bunch of us took a ride that ended up 30 miles later :)

It was so pretty though and kept snowing!

 When we got back Kaydree and her cousin Kamryn had a whole play put together from upstairs of Rapunzel :) It was cute and the window was perfect for her to let down her long hair haha

And we left to even more snow!! :)

{Little Dancer}

Kaydree has been quite the dancer this year! This is her third year and she has done sooo good and loves it! With all of her stalky built brothers her little petite body sure fits in well with dance :)

{He's 29 FOREVER :)}

 

That's Right!!

On February 1st Austin turned 30!!!

He had been dreading his birthday since the day he turned 29 haha....

but it came anyway! :) 

The kids had a sleepover and Austin and I went out to dinner and rented a movie for the night....he's such a stinker when it comes to his birthdays. He hates getting older.

But I still think he's HOT :)

He says he will FOREVER be 29 :)

{Maternity Photos}

I finally caved in and decided to have some maternity pictures taken...it was so much fun!

My good friend Noelle took them for me along with some more intimate ones for just me and my hubby! I love how these turned out despite it being only 12 degrees that day :)

These were taken just up the road from our home by heise. I have always loved this barn!

 

 

 

{1,2, 3!!!}

JAXTON is THREE!!!

On January 7th our sweet, happy, energetic little boy Jaxton turned 3 years old!!!

He has been looking forward to his birthday as much as he did for Christmas and made up his own phrase Happy Christmas! It was pretty cute! There is never a dull moment with him around...he constantly cracks us up and is my little sidekick and helper while the older kids are in school :)

I did however, have a meltdown the night before and carried him out of his bed and brought him into ours to sleep because I realized we cant ever go back and two year olds are so sweet and its only downhill from there. :) We just love this kid!

Happy Birthday JAX!

{Christmas 2012}

Christmas 2012 was so much fun! The kids were finally old enough to get into the Christmas spirit as well as understand the true meaning. The kids got spoiled and Santa actually came to our home :) Christmas Eve we headed to Grandma and Grandpa Farmer's home for our yearly Christmas Eve dinner, nativity/story of Jesus' birth, and gift exchange. It was a fun Christmas that came and went too fast :)
