My sweet silly boys!!

My boys, all I can do is laugh some times!

This last monday Mclane wasn't feeling well due to an ear ache. He hadn't slept well the night before. I was down stairs and to boys were watching a show on the computer and this is what I saw!

Poor little guy was so tired, and his brother took advantage of him and the situation!!

Too funny!

This is Mclanes robot he built he was so proud of it.

He took this picture!

FREEDOM!!

That is what I thought when I came down stairs today and saw Tavin's face covered in blue marker.

I wonder who he was planning to going to go to war with???

So Sleepy!

This last week has been a tired one...I guess! For the last three days I have gone down stairs and found Tavin or Mclane sound asleep!

This was after I was vacuuming in the same room!!

The day before that..

Mclane while playing his new V-simle. I showed this picture to a friend later, and Mclane saw it and said " I wasn't sleeping I was just resting, and playing my game in my head"!

Maybe it's the chair!!!!

New Computer

As many of you have known I have not had the best of luck with computers lately (despite help from my brother) So I have decided to go with a Mac and so far I love it I just hope it lasts longer than my other computers.

So now I have been able to up date the blog and up date and up date. so have fun catching up with us, and Happy New Year!!!

Christmas

This year our little family had two Christmas's. One at home before Adrian had to go and one at home in Panguitch.

Christmas morning #1 at our house. Santa brought the boys an art easel and art supplies.

Mclane got more tracks for his Thomas the train set, blocks, and cars.

Tavin got his own train set and cars so he would leave Mclanes alone..we hoped.

Christmas in Panguitch is always fun, every year our family gets together at Grandma Heywood's house and dose the Nativity story, a good reminder of what Christmas is all about.

After, we read stories and sing songs that are about Christ and Christmas.

At G&G Fischers house Santa left more art supplies and some toy guns.

Mclane got a race car track and more cars and play dough.

Tavin got a bowling set and a little car track and cars.

We had a lot of fun while in Utah, one of the kids favorite things to do is hook the sleds up to the 4-wheelers and be pulled around the pasture.

Even the big kids. Not a lot different from when I was a kid. Dad would hook the sleds up to the back of the truck and take us down DD hollow.

I hope every one had a wonderful Christmas!

Denver Aquarium

The day that Adrian left we decided to find something fun to do, so we headed up to the denver Aquarium.

Unfortunately Mclane was eat'n bye a shark soon after arriving!! Despite his dad's best efforts to save him.

There were so may different kinds of fish to see the boys were able to reach in and touch the sting ray, some star fish, and a horse shoe fish.

Since it was the week before Christmas Santa and one of his elves were there feeding the sharks. ( Santa sure gets around)

That was one of Mclanes favorite things to see Santa. (oh, he survived the shark attack)

Tavin thought it was neat too!

one of the sharks

the biggest cat fish that I have ever seen it was longer than Mclane is tall, and it moved so slowly.

Winter Wild Land

Every year our Zoo open at night and has their annual winter wild land. It is a fun experience they have the zoo all light up with Christmas lights, the kid can help Santa feed some of the animals, and their are a few animals that are more active at night

This was the only Picture of the lights I was able to get of the lights, most didn't turn out and then the batteries in my camera gave out!

The giraffes are always our favorite because the boys get to pet them and feed them crackers.

Mclane LOVES to feed the giraffes, he could spend all day at that one spot.

More giraffe petting. It was a wonderful evening to spend together as a family before Adrian had to leave.
