Merry Christ"mouse"

So last night i was watchin tv and talking to brand and out of the corner of my eye, i saw something run under our couch! So i told brand and this is what he did, yet again:) He moved the couch and it ran behind our entertainment center!




Im sure everyone heard about the story last time there was a mouse in our house! He grabbed his bb gun once again and shot the sucker:) It never ran out so i think its under our entertainment center...i guess if it smells soon, its for sure under there!! We can't tell though. Anywho, i wanted ya'all to see what my hubby does when there are unwanted creatures in the house. Flashlight and bb gun, and we are good to go! Thanks Babe:)

Had Program...me 28!

Hadley had her kindergarten Christmas program the other day. It was so cute. She did great and sang all the songs! She is so excited for Christmas Eve to sing all the song she knows from school:) Here are a few pics from the program...

Happy 28th to me!!

Monday was my birthday! I feel the same age as i did 10 years ago, with the exception of im not in HIGH SCHOOL anymore playin sports! I still play sports and feel the same as i did then, just maybe not in as good of shape as i was then:)

Brand and the kids gave me an Electric blanket, earrings, perfume and super mario bros wii.

It was fun, we ate at my very favorite place....

I freakin love this place. I get the Calofornia Club which is chicken, bacon, lettuce, ranch, and avacados! It is the best pizza ever, and i ate the whole pizza by myself! Yes you heard right, whole thing by myself:) .....then we saw the movie Everybody's Fine. It was good, not one i would buy but good! It was a fun birthday.

Face Sledding!

Hadley was sliding on her stomache down our driveway on a sled and right now the driveway is pure ice! She fell off the sled and her face slid on the ice! She is ok, just some scratches below her nose as you can see and on her chin. It could have been a lot worse but it looks good now!!

Adult Halloween Party:)

The adult halloween party was a success and fun; i hope everybody had as much fun as i did!!


It was hilarious to see everyone in their costumes. Some of them we died of laughter as you will see! We had food, games, and fun. We made a halloween trophy and called it the halloween cup and thats what everybody was playing for. They got a certain amount of points for each game and thing that they did etc. The couple with the most points at the end of the party was the winner!!

Me and Grandma Dow at the party:)

Here is a picture of us with Moaning Murtle from Harry Potter. We went up to the house on the hill that does Hogwarts.... it was so fun and totally worth it. Way creative and so cute. If you are a Harry Potter fan, i highly recommend going to this!! Even if your not a fan, it is still worth going and super fun!!

Green River

Im a little late postin this but, a few weeks ago, we went up to my Aunts and Uncles Ranch in Green River. It was super fun and the kids had a blast! We got to ride the Ranger, pick pumpkins, shoot at ducks and pumpkins and watermelons. I wish i had taken a picture of us the first day we went to the ranch. We were COVERED in dirt. I wasn't expecting me to get dirty like that, i thought just the kids would get dirty playing in the dirt, but oh no, i was wrong!! We all were covered from head to toe! It was fun though. Driving around in the ranger on the dusty dirt ground, means you do not stay clean!!

Then that night, we went spotlighting! This was the funnest thing. I had never done anything like that before and it was so fun. Obviously you don't get to see animals at night cause it's so dark. But with that spotlight, it was way cool to see the deer and stuff at night. We saw tons of deer, we shot a skunk and shot at a few other things. We had a blast!

I have to thank Marilyn and Scotty for letting us come up there and for the room and board and food. They were so nice and did a lot for us, so thank you so much. We couldn't have gone without ya so thank you!! We can't wait to come again:)

The kids in the hotel with their hats!

Thanks again Marilyn and Scotty!!!

Who freakin says that

So, today in church i came home pissed.... just minding my own business sitting in sacrament, the kids were being themselves, not quiet but not loud, just coloring and whispering and sisi was just walking around. This girl about 30 and her daughter who was probably 5 was sittin behind us. She whispers to me "is this how the whole sacrament is gonna be, cause if so i need to move" i just looked at her not really knowing what she was talking about, i said "what my kids" her:"ya your kids" and i proceeded to say, "ya they will be like this the whole time" her: "you got to be kidding me" me: " they are just kids" her:"you need to teach them to be reverent" (at this point i'm furious) me: they are kids and they are as reverent as they are gonna be but thanks for telling me how to parent" her: "we are moving" me:" good move!" i was pissed. WHO FREAKIN SAYS THAT. I had to hold back from calling her other names and doing other things since we were in church!! Sooo freaking mad... if you have a problem, move, don't say that. Im not one to get offended but that pissed me off, don't tell me how to parent, take care of your own damn kids!! (pardon my french)

Toothless!

Yes, had finally lost a tooth. She has been dyin to lose a tooth for years (literally). Everytime someone she knew would lose a tooth she would tell me, "mom, i wanna lose a tooth real bad." I would just tell her, one day you will lose lots of teeth! and so it starts:) She lost it on Oct. 1st.



She called me from her friends house and said mom, my tooth is loose. I said cool sis. She came home about 5 min later to show me. She told me that i hurt real bad. So i said, do you want me to just pull it out? She was like ya. So after maybe 2 min, it was out!! She was excited. I asked her how it got loose and she said she didn't know. Tayson came runnin home about 1 min later and he said "mom, Hadley's tooth is loose cause she bit a binky really hard!! I asked Had, you did? She said ya. I said, why didn't you just tell me that? Of course her famous answer for everything is I don't know! She thought she would get in trouble for biting a binky so she didn't want to tell me. Funny girl. Anywho, the toothfairy came and she couldn't believe she got $2 for losing 1 tooth! It was funny. She was like, "mom, i got $2 for losing 1 tooth. Do i always get $2. I just said, "I don't know Had, im not the toothfairy!!"

She couldn't wait to call people afer that, especially Grandpa Kriss cause he gives $5 for losing your 1st tooth. He was the 1st one she called. It was cute how giddy she was!

Had turns 6!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO HAD!! I can't believe my little Hadley is 6! It has gone by soooo fast. It feels like just yesterday we brought her home from the hospital. Hadley is so fun and has a fun personality. She is so fun to talk to and play with. She in so many ways is just like her mamma!! She is strong headed and competitive and wants to do something every second:)

She had a great day today. She and Tay had their primary program today. Had did a great job and Tay just pretty much entertained the audience!! After that we had everybody over for dinner and cookies and ice cream. She got some fun presents.

She was so funny. Here are a few things she said while opening her gifts!

She got a card from her grandma and grandpa Eichmeier along with her present. After opening the card she said " I really thought there was gonna be money in that card!"

After opening all her presents she said " I thought i would get more presents."

And last but not least, Andy and Jordy don't do kid presents so when she was giving everybody a hug and telling them thank you, she asked Jordy " why didn't you guys give me a present?!!"

It was histerical!! We all were laughin so hard. Just like me, when i was little all i wanted was presents from everyone!! "Clint, where's your present?" ha ha

Heaven forbid they spell her name right! Happy birthday Handley!! Ha ha funny.

Happy birthday Had girly, we love you very much!

Boating

Brand and his brother Brian took the kids boating yesterday. I couldn't go, i had to much to do to get ready for hads party, but the kids had a blast! Here are a few pics.

Now Tays turn

Well, i know everyone is probably sick of hearing about kids starting school but i have to post my big man going to his first day of preschool. He goes to Appletree and since it has the name apple in it he thinks there should be apples all over the place, but there aren't!! But he loves it anyway. He loves his teacher Miss Michelle and she is so cute and nice. He will have a great year!

Sienna wanted in on the pic!

He had to get a pic of his Transformers backpack so everybody could see what was on it. We couldn't not have Bumble Bee in the pic.

Campin with dad!

So every year Brand likes to take the kids campin a few times each year. I don't like camping so i only go maybe once a year and i already had my turn, so i opted to stay home with Si Si, which was a great break from the kids for me!! Anywho, the kids had a great time and they love to camp with their dad.

You can't tell from the pic but Had did have a good time!! She was little ornery at first but bucked right up after a bit:)

Had still wasn't ready to be happy in this pic!!

Brand just got done bribing her with something, so she finally got happy and smiled! And Tay found that stick that looked like a cane therefor he was walking around like an old grandpa!!
