Comparing kids

All of them are about three months in these pictures. Kind of fun to compare!

Just keeps Growing and Growing

Madee The Birthday Girl

Madee turned five years old and I can hardly believe it. Has it really been that long since she became a part of our family. She is our sweet, Strong willed, Social butterfly that loves to be doing thing and having a good time. We decorated a little bit for her special day and she loved it.

Madee helped me mix and ice this cake. She is such a big helper and love to learn how to do new things.
She couldn't wait to open presents and enjoy them thanks so much to Nanna and Grandpa for the flower lamp for her wall. Also to Grandma and Grandpa for the beautiful dress and other gifts. Madee loved them all.

Canning Pears

I had a wonderful neighbor friend who could not use her box of pears before she left on a trip so she gave them to me. I thought I would try and see how hard pears really are to can. Tricia just so you know they are not that much more work then peaches. I am glad I tried it. I might even get some more so I have more then just 6 jars for the year. :)
Madee started Preschool again this year with a few ladies from our church ward. She learned about the letter B today for bracelet. Yes it is a life saver bracelet. She loves going to it. She has lots of fun.
Claire is growing in leaps and bounds she rolls all the way over to her tummy but can't roll back. I may have already mentioned this in other blogging. She is four months old on Sunday.
Since you only ever see pictures of our kids :)
Sam love to ride the little bike he has. He can push it so fast with his legs. I am quite amazed at how he can do that. Well Madee's birthday is Sunday so I will post more soon.

Tricia said I needed to post more pictures. I know I'm not the best picture taker..maybe someday.

Bolder Cave

Bolder Cave..a pretty neat little hike with some beautiful scenery.


We went hiking today! My Parents and Benny boy my brother were in town so we decided to go to Bolder Cave. It was about an hour drive from Yakima and nice and short for the kiddo's.
With lots of help from everyone it made for a great morning. We hiked to bolder cave and had our flashlights ready for the dark parts of a very short cave. Madee and my Mom got too scared at the dark part and so we turned back and met the others at the end of the cave going around on the trail. This is before we knew how very short it was.
We had a great time and it was beautiful and not to hot really the perfect morning. I am glad we could spend it in such good company.

Claire is Blessed

Yesterday We had a bunch of our family come out and we blessed Claire in our home. She is three months old and we have blessed every child at about this age.
It was wonderful to have Lincoln's Parents and my Parents and Lincoln's sisters family all come out to be apart of this special time.
We love having her be part of our family.
