Preschool.


Jordyn is playing on a soccer team here and thinks that it is much better than t-ball. She likes the fact that she can always be moving. She strategically positioned herself behind the ball, where she looked like she was in the action, but never had to kick the ball for the first three or four games. Her competetive father couldn't take it anymore and offered her a quarter every time she kicked the ball. She earned a dollar last Wednesday.

All dressed up and ready for preschool.


We are doing a cooperative preschool with some friends here, it is working out really well, and Lexy loves it.

She also showed a banty hen for cloverbuds. The hen was super mellow, and she was really easy for Jordyn to handle, so it went well. The judge asked her what the hen's name was, and she said "I didn't name her, because my dog kills the ones we name." What a girl.

Jordyn showed Abby the pygmy goat at the fair this year in Gooding. She did a good job. The goat Gods were with us, Abby drug Jordyn to the ring, behaved like an angel during the show, then drug her out. The little goat behind her hadn't been castrated and thought Abby was pretty hot stuff, so that part was hard for Jordyn to deal with, but humorous for the rest of us.

Old faithful


This is always pretty fun to see, definetely more fun to see with kids.

What a cutie!!


Jordyn in Yellowstone Park. We took a tour van through with the whole Parsons Family. It was a great way to do it, we all got to ride together and the guide showed us all kinds of stuff. We had a good time. Kayden even took his toy gun in case we saw a bear.
Lynn and Julene took the whole family to Island Park for a weekend this summer. We stayed in a nice cabin and had all kinds of fun.

Look, no hands!!!

I love this picture. Jordyn loved to go in the helicopter behind the boat. This is in the Snake River in Burley. Clark was such a good sport always volunteering to help with the kids if Tony wasn't around (he was on call). The kids are loving grandpa having a boat!!
Sassy little girls!! We are in big trouble with them!!
Noelle had more fun with the fishing poles than the kids did I think, and certainly got them stuck in the trees more than anyone else there. She and Clark and my dad had casting contests. Lots of fun!!


Kayden learning to fish with Papa Kent fourth of July weekend. We went to Burley and camped out and went boating with my family.
Once again, obsessed with helmets. I had to go in at night after he was asleep and take it off of him. He did this for a week. What a cutie!!

Kayden loves his new boots, and loves helmets. This is at Grandma DD and Papa Kent's house, with Papa's 4 wheeler helmet on. He wore it most of the day.

Just loving the sun!!


The girls decided it would be fun to play in the pond in our yard. They loved it!


Parsons Fam on the ion. That thing was so fun!! (Once the kids were off and it was moving a little faster anyway).


Noelle, Grandma DD and Holly on the ion with the kiddos.


Grandma DD and Kenna hanging out on the boat. Kenna loved the boat, it rocked her to sleep in no time.


Kayden at Lake Powell, what a handsome dude.


Lexy this summer at Lake Powell on the new boat!!!!

Let's give this a shot

Well, I am new to this, so let's see how it goes. We are doing well, loving our new house and life. We stay pretty busy. Tony is working hard and liking most of the vet life. I am just getting tired of being pregnant. The baby is due November 15, and I am getting really anxious to meet the little guy (Koltyn). Jordyn is in soccer and I have never seen little legs move so fast. She is also now in the first grade, and loves every minute of it. Lexy is as anxious as I am for the baby to arrive. She is such a little mommy and I will be lucky if I ever get to hold him. She is in preschool and having lots of fun. Kayden is just all boy. He loves swords and guns and shooting t-rex. Anyway, I will start getting some pics up here, so I can get the hang of this before the baby gets here.
