3 weeks in Canada

So we had an eventful 3 weeks up in Canada, boy do I love going back there to visit. Now that the kids are getting older they are enjoying it much more. IT is the middle of Sept. now and every time we get in the car to go somewhere, they ask if we can go to Canada. Somehow the 16 hour drive is too easily forgotten in their little minds. They can only remember the fun times they had, ALL of the cousins to play with, 1st cousins, 2nd cousins, and all kinds of things to do, that is how it should be, I wish I could forget the drive that easily! Really though the kids did great and we loved having Kayla and Thomas drive up there with us. It made it soooo much nicer for me just to be able to take care of the kids and not worry about driving. We got to visit with Grandma, the kids great grandma who is always such a hoot, she is such an amazing woman!!! Here they all are with her, I LOVE this picture!
One of the days we went out to Tyanna's place. Her and Ammon were running Heart Lake for my Uncle Mel, like 5000 acres or something like that. We went out for breakfast and then went 4-wheeling, which was soo fun! Kayla and Thomas had these two....

Tyanna and I had these 3.... Little Tacey is only 6 weeks old and she is cruising out on the 4 wheeler with us, gotta love it!!! She totally fell asleep and would only wake up when we stopped!



We stopped to say hi to Ammon and Janae for lunch so we took a shot of all of us posing in front of the loader.



Silly kids, having so much fun posing
We just coudln't get enough of all the open spaces and lack of rules and longs days of sunshine and berries to pick and 4 wheelers to ride and horses to ride, Man do I miss the summers up there!!!

Brooklyn or Emree?

Brooklyn or Emree?
Just thought you all might like to see how much Brooklyn and Emree look alike, its kind of scary actually! Especially that Emree wears all the clothes that Brooklyn used to wear, I better make sure I get the right name to the right picture in the scrapbooks...well photo albums anyway. This is Brooklyn when she was 10 months old!

First day of School!

Funny Story 1

Well I haveto share this funny story about Brooklyn. There is a little girl in our primary who got her appendix out shortly after she was baptized and showed Brooklyn her scar, so here is Brooklyn's conversation with me the other day. Brooklyn: "Mom I don't think I want to get baptized." Me: "Why not?" Brook: "It's too scary." And I'm thinking she loves the water, what is the problem? Me: "Whats scary about it?" Brook: "I don't want to go to the hospital and be cut open after I am baptized." I started laughing!!! "You think everyone has to be cut open after they get baptized?" Brook: yes, Jenny did and she even showed me her scar. So I had to explain to her that that was not part of getting baptized, it just happened that it was close to the same time with Jenny. I thought it was so hilarious, you never know what your kids are actually thinking!!

What a handsome boy!
