A Turkey day to Remember!!

Thanksgiving this year was with the Kidd's we have now out grown the house and graduated to the Black and White building. It works for us. Everyone was there Justin and Kara came a later that night. We had a delicious meal. Nancy made our turkey and the rest of us had various assignments.

The day begins at 1:00 getting to see everyone and catching up. It was lots of fun!

The new addition to the family wasn't sure about all these people and the new surroundings. But we sure enjoyed him. He is the cutest thing. Celiece and Nathan did well.

Some of our day was spent with Grandma Helen's new musical instruments. They work best when you hit them on your head or on someone else's head!

I think the big kids enjoyed it as much as the little kids did.

The rest of the day was spent playing games well some did......

While others.......

Visited and held the cutie!!

It was a great day with family. I believe we all had fun!!

The next day was that great shopping day of the year. And we enjoyed it all!

Happy Halloween from us!!!

We had our annual ward halloween party. It was lots of fun for the kids and great for the parents. This year the trunker treat was in the gym (kind of lame) but we didn't freeze so that was great. We all enjoyed ourselves and we missed Brett and Emily they have been with us in the past.

Jerry's work always dresses up for Halloween. This year they were caveman. This is Jerry in his hair. Doesn't he look great!

Nicole and Sadie were construction workers. Nicole was Fred and Sadie was Bob!

Gracie was a 50's Chick for school.

Megan was a gymnist and Olivia was a 50's chick. By evening Gracie was a bride for the Halloween party at the church.

Picture Day

I got the girls haircut and then headed to Kiddie Kandis. These are the pictures we had taken that day. I think they turned out pretty good. But I am partial!!

First day of School for ALL!!

1st out the door was Nicole. She is in 7th grade this year. WoW!! She is on the Broadcast team. That means every monday they have a news broadcast that goes out for all the school classes and then she will be in charge of helping with the yearbook. There was only 18 kids that made it. She was really excited to be one.

This is Nicole and her buddy Sadie they are both in the Broadcast club.

Next out the door was Gracie for her 1st day of Kindergarten. She was really excited. I can't believe she is a kindergartner. Time flies!!

We have our traditional spots for the 1st day of school pictures. The first one is so I can see how much they have grown each year. and the second is to see the pretty flowers and how sick I am of them at this point.

This is Gracie with her Kindergarten teacher Mrs. Burningham. She was Nicole and Megan's preschool teacher for that matter she was Mindi and Landen's as well. We love her she is an awesome teacher. Super great with the kids.

This is my first sighting of Megan she spent the night at Ashlee's so she could do her hair. Megan is in 5th grade this year. Her last year at Park Elementary. I'm excited. But I just get to start

over with the younger two.

This is Gracie walking out from her first day. She wasn't very happy. They have to tell there teacher that their safe choice is there and she didn't tell her teacher so her teacher asked her to come back. What a Gracie she is. She learned quick to remember to do that and things are going better.

Olivia Turns "3" and Gracie Turns "5"

Olivia got a dress up kit and a baby bottle set for her birthday!! And we played outside it was a beautiful afternoon.

For Olivia's 3rd Birthday it was on a sunday so not much excitement happened. We did Cake and Ice cream at Grandma and Grandpa Kidd's. She wanted a blue cake, so we got her one with a beach on it. It had sand and water which meant it had blue on it.

Gracie turned "5" on August 10th (yes I am behind) For her birthday the Kidd family Jerry's and Curt's family with Grandma and Grandpa Kidd went to Lava Hot Springs in Lava, Idaho. We had a great day. Then on Sunday we had cake and Ice cream at our dinner at Grandma Kidd's house.

Gracie got a Pink Gameboy for her birthday and a Shrek movie. She loved it!!

This is either Justin or Landen I can't tell it is to far away! But this is the High Dives there.

This is the camp we set up there and the pool. It is alot of fun to go up there!

This is at Grandma and Grandpa Kidd's when we had cake and Ice Cream. Gracie had a great Birthday!!
