Thought i'd post some quick pics of the kids... that i took. Payton the poser, Houston the serious one, and Marls (just being Marls)

Gotta love em!

Payton's broken arm!

Happy Mothers Day mom!

We were just hanging out at Grandma Fred's house and Payton decided to give the firemans pole a try.... The firemans pole got the best of her or maybe it was the grass down below. She sure is tough though.... we didn't take her to the doctor until the next day because she tends to be super dramatic about things. Sure enough, her arm was broken. She of course chose pink for the cast. Its so little and way cute. I now have three babies instead of just too. :) The next three weeks are gonna be a blast!

Baby Houston!

Hes finally here!

Annual Freddy Easter Egg Hunt...

Check this one out mom...

My girl...

Who put that egg there?

Enjoying their goodies

Payton looks forward to the annual Freddy easter egg hunt every year. Marley didn't care about the candy, she just loved playing with the eggs. It was great to be able to see the family.

Thanks mom for the memories.

Love ya'll freddys.

Our little shredder....

Learning to balance...

Enjoying the sun.

Checkin out the run with dad...

This is Payton's second year of snowboarding... we've only been able to take her twice this year, but shes surprisingly tons better than last year. She loves going, which works out well, because we don't give her much of a choice. We've loved being able to go up on the mountain as a family. Even i was able to go down the mountain a few times with my prego belly. Maybe next year we'll have Marls on a snowboard.

Little Marls not so little....

Wow.... our little Marley will soon be 1. With news of another little one (A boy!) soon to come, I haven't had a chance to update you all on how much Marley has grown in the past year. She is such a great baby.... always happy.... and full of expression. Definately a little angel. Shes been crawling for 3 months now. She loves to say hi to everyone she sees. Shes her daddy's girl - her eyes light up every time hes around. We love our little Marls so much. Happy Birthday (on March 19th) little one!

New Family Pics!

Our sweet Marls.... who did her hair? Couldn't help but stick this one on here... shes always making us smile.

Our sweet little family...

My girl!

Thanks again Ashley!

Lake Powell

This years Lake Powell trip was a lot of fun. Payton wasn't as scared of the water this year.... and the weather was perfect. We loved spending time with Branch and Dinah's family. They've been so awesome these past couple of years to let us tag along on their Lake Powell trips.
We had a blast! Thanks a ton!

so fun!

This years reunion was a blast. We're so lucky to live within 5 minutes of all this. I've been missin the malls, and the eating places since i've moved to Fairview, but these mountains make up for all of it. Its so beautiful this summer.... I can't wait to take advantage of it.

Goblin Valley

Hiking the slot canyon - our awesome men holding all the babies.

Goblin Valley

Our sweet (sometimes not so sweet) girls.

Payton - enjoying every moment.

We spent this past weekend at Goblin Valley with the family. I didn't even know this place existed until this weekend. Its so crazy the things that Heavenly Father has created. He must have a sense of humor, because this place is crazy. Payton had a blast exploring... but mostly she just loved being with the family. Marley (our little angel baby) was so good the whole time. Thanks family for the good times!

St. George

Marley and Brett hanging out at the park.

Its the coolest park... it has a water fall, river and fountains for the kids to play in... Payton loved it!

Me and Payton...

My babe!

Us - hiking Kolob canyon.... So pretty!
Nothing better than a weekend away with the family.

Sorry everyone its been so long since my last update.... I'll work on it.

I swear with two kids i get nothing done.

Baby ticker!

I just realized that my baby ticker is now adding days. That rocks! My baby's not floating around in there anymore though, so maybe thats a good sign.

Baby or no baby.....

No baby yet..... hopefully soon though..... I may go crazy.....

Three years old!

Happy Birthday to our little girl! Shes three years old.... wow. For her birthday this year she got her ears pierced. She's wanted earrings for a couple months now, and somehow she got it in her head that, thats what she was getting for her birthday. As soon as the girls put the gloves on, she started screaming. It was quite the experience, but she loves her earrings now, and shows them to everyone she talks to. She had a great birthday, and loved all the attention she got on her special day.
