I can't wait until we're done with everything at the house. All of our nights and weekends are spent trying to get what we can done. It's slow going since we have Kaleb and Ashton that distract us and get into everything but they love helping out. We're hoping to start painting in a week or so and then hopefully move in by the end of February. Here are some updates:

1: Matt has graduated! He has his bachelors in Business Management and he's been interviewing the last couple of weeks for different positions. We're keeping our fingers crossed. He starts his MBA at the University of Phoenix in February and it takes 1 1/2 years and then hopefully we can say goodbye to school (at least for Matt).2: The Walking with Dinosaurs a couple of weeks ago was awesome. Kaleb loved it. We were on the 6th row and it was amazing how real they looked, walked and sounded.2: Ashton loved his birthday cake. Unlike Kaleb who didn't eat any of his 1st birthday cake Ashton ate the whole piece we gave him. I still can't get over that he's one already and will be walking soon.3: We had family pictures taken the morning before my brother left for his mission. They turned out pretty good. It's hard getting Ashton and Kaleb to smile at the same time which is why they're clapping in our picture. (Coming soon: Ashton's One Year Pictures-although he screamed and cried almost the whole time we did get some with him smiling)4: Life continues to be busy with YW, apartments and mostly the house but we're loving it!

Happy Birthday Ashton!

I can't believe it's been a year already. We love you Ashton!

I haven't posted in awhile so there are going to be lots of pictures. Yesterday Logan entered the MTC for his mission. We are really close and so it was hard to see him go but he's going to be a great missionary. (I was taking the picture and yes, Kaleb is flashing his "gang" signs as we call them)Before the MTC we went to breakfast and to JCPenney's to get family pictures. We had to put Ashton in his missionary shirt that Rue bought for him.


I had to take this picture. His head looks like I pasted it on. It reminds me of the characature pictures you have people draw with the big heads and little bodies.

Kaleb is really going to miss Logan. They're best buds and love to tease eachother.


Sunday after Logan's farewell Amber brought over one of the puppies. Ashton wasn't very gentle and kept hitting her on the head. Poor puppy would run away when Ashton came crawling up.

Every New Year's we go to Logan. This year we took a sleigh ride around the Elk Refuge. It was only 14 degree's that day and although we almost froze it was a beautiful day.

My sister Amber, dad, and Ashton.


We always go bowling over New Year's and this year Matt and I were determinied to beat eachother. The first game we tied 120-120, the next game I won, and Matt won the third game.


Bowling's not as exciting when it's nap time. Ashton fell asleep.
