A Fun Filled Summer

Rafting down the river.

Getting ready to raft.

Carsen has learned how to ride the 50 motorbike before he learned how to ride a pedal bike. After riding the motorbike Brian took the training wheels off his pedal bike and he had that mastered too. He can't start or stop by himself but he can sure ride.

Luckly Carsen has three older brothers looking after him. They are there to catch him if he falls and to stop him when his legs are to tired.

It's Great to Be Eight!!!

Happy Day!

What Handsome Boys!!

Snowmobiling with the Family

Kade had a great time snowmobiling. He only got stuck a few times.

Colten is a snowmobiling pro. He would try and climb to the top of the mountains. He also loves doing jumps.

Conner had a great time just being able to drive by himself.

Brian had a great time teaching the boys how to ride.

Wintertime FUN

Granite Falls

We went swimming up to Granite Hot Springs. We snowmobiled in about 10 miles and then went swimming. It was about 25 degrees outside and the water was about 112 degrees. The boys had fun rolling around in the snow and then jumping in the water.

Snowmobiling in and out of the ranch.

CHOPPING WOOD WITH DAD!

Winter Fun

The boys have loved playing in the snow this winter. They have been sleigh riding, building snow caves, skiing, and snowmobiling.

This is Brian feeding the horses. He is loving life!

This is how the boys get to and from school everyday. Colten rides a snowmobile and Kade and Conner will either ride on the back of Colten or on the back of Me or Brian.

Colten has been learning how to play hockey at school. When he first started he could hardly skate and now he is scoring goals like crazy. Kade and Conner like to skate but they will leave the hockey up to Colten.

Carsen and I went to the school for lunch. This is Carsen playing on the playground with Kade and Conner.

Conner trying to smile for the camera.

Colten had the pine wood derby on Saturday. He was so excited. He ended up taking 2nd place.

Winter Has Arrived

Santa we are ready for you to come to our house.

Winter is here and the boys are very excited!

The boys will be sking with the school come January. They are trying out their skis.

They did a pretty good job staying on their feet. They would go down the hill and we would take them back up to the top on the snowmobile.

Thanksgiving Day Fun

Cooking with the Family at Snow Colleges bowl game.

Searching for the perfect Christmas Tree. They boys all took turns cutting it down.

Thanksgiving 2008

Most of my family came up to the ranch for Thanksgiving. It was fun having everyone together.




We got to visit and play games with eachother.

The kids did a lot of playing and went on a treasure hunt.

Entertainment was a head stand contest which Kirsten won.

Thanks for coming up everyone. We had a blast having everyone up here. Come again!!

Kary was the dishwasher for Thanksgiving. I don't know what we would of done without him. Thanks Kary!

Jeannie and Aaron came up to the ranch for a visit right before Thanksgiving. The boys had a great time playing with eachother. Isaac now wants to be a cowboy when he grows up.
