funny stuff!

Our house is a funny place, especially with a nearly 3 year old girl!
The other day she said that we were going to the zyro zapper! that what!?! the Chiropractor!

The other day she comes running saying there is a spider on the holy god! say what? She loves to play the piano and sings holy God, therefore that is what she calls the piano. We were at a friends house and she scrapped her foot on the piano there and said that she hurt it on the holy god! We all had a good laugh!

Strawberry Shortcake

Kiah loves wearing dresses, she wore this one Sunday. This dress used to be mine and I remember thinking of it as the strawberry shortcake dress. Kiah looked so cute. The dress is really thin and very well loved, but it was fun to see her in it.

Kids

I post pictures of Tobin all the time, here are some great ones of the other 3.

Thanksgiving

We and a wonderful Thanksgiving. It started with the Turkey Bowl, a game of flag football played by the men at church, under 25 vs. over 25, the older group won. It was fun, messy and a good time was had by all. Then we went to the fellowship hall at church for a time of Thanksgiving songs and testimony, it was great. Our God is so good. After that we came home and made the kids take a nap then went to our friends house for dinner, football on tv and fellowship, it was wonderful. Isaac tried on the football jersey and Kiah tried in the helmet, it was so cute. Tobin found himself in the mirror and thought that was pretty neat.

Ahh a tiger!

Isaac's school had a carnival and he got his face painted. They did a really great job.

Harvest Festival

Last week was the harvest party at the church, the kids had a blast, here are some pictures of the little buckaroos.

Kiah sleeps!

Last night we put Kiah to bed as usual, thought she was asleep...later when I went to put Tobin in bed I found Kiah asleep on the floor in the hallway diaper undone, with a fire hat on, it was so funny, she was snoring!

Soccer

The boys are playing soccer this fall, today was their first game. They are on separate teams this year, bummer for the parents who have to go to 2 games, but the boys don't mind. Jason is coaching Justin's team. Isaac's game was at 8 and that was good, his team won. Justin's game was at 9:30, it was hot, we sat in the shade and sweated, the kids on the other team were much more experienced, but Justin still had fun. Next week both boys play at 8 so it should be nice weather.

Luau

The pre-school that is a part of our church had a Luau last saturday to celebrate it's 25th anniversary. Jason did the grilling, the kids and I did the eating, fun was had by all. This picture of Kiah makes me smile, she is wearing an outfit that used to be mine!
Like Justin's blue smile? we had snow cones!

Kiah and the hat

Kiah loves to dress up and I just had to share this picture. She was still in her pajamas, had her bunny and the fire hat, too cute!

Grandma visits

We had the pleasure of having Grandma come and visit us. Here is a pic of her and the kids. This picture of Kiah I just love and had fun creating the effects.

vacation fun

I've been trying to get to these posts for a while now:) It has been crazy busy ever since we arrived in AZ, I hope that things start to be "normal" soon.


Justin

Under a huge cyprus tree

a lizard we saw on our hike

Where'd she learn THAT look?

Pretty smile

What?
"the look"
Here are some pictures of Kiah, in one of them she is giving "the look", she is very expressive:)

Hair!

Kiah's hair has gotten so long, it hangs in her face, but I don't have the heart to cut it yet. She usually won't leave any barrettes in, but sometimes leaves it in a pony tail or pig tails, which is so cute.

Kiah is driving Mommy crazy!

Our darling daughter is doing her best to drive me crazy. Today, before 10 am, she found a jar of Vaseline, which was retrieved before any harm was done, played in the toilet (gross) tried to crush a bag of chips and dumped the contents of a salt shaker all over the kitchen! She is cute, but man does she ever keep me busy.

Happy Birthday Kiah!

Kiah just turned 1, it's hard to beleieve that a year has gone by already. She is a very busy girl and loves to get in on whatever we are doing.

Yum!

the other day we were done eating and so everyone was excused, however not everything was put away! Kiah decided that she was still hungry and grabbed the pot of peas off the table! All I could do was laugh and grab the camera

Kiah and mommy

I am rarely in photos, because I am usually behind the camera, so I had a friend take this one of me and Kiah.

More walking

Kiah is getting much better at walking, it is so cute to watch.

Look at those teeth

In this picture you can see all Kiah's 6 teeth. She tilts her head when trying to be cute or playing shy!
