Kaeden finally got the Bannana cream pie that he has been asking me to make for a few months. Why bannana cream I don't know, but he sure enjoyed it!!!!
Yes this is the boys peeling potatoes, (Chad, Jared and Dave)I think they finally figured it out that if they left everything up the may girls that Thanksgiving dinner might not happen until very late that night. Sometime we visit more than work, and most of the time we aren't so good at doing both at the same time. Here is Kaeden at the big kids table. And here we have Taesi at the little kids table.
We had the May's Thanksgiving dinner in Cedar this year. Juliann happily offered her house for the party. We stayed at Melissa's house were it was quieter at night. It was a blast. Juliann's has a great back yard and the weather was beautiful so the kids played outside most of the time. I am very thankful for my family. The little boys playing basketball. Someone must have kick them off the wii.
Taesi and Kira(Todd's youngest) watching the kids play basketball from a safe distance.
Now this is what snowmobling should be about. Taesi decided to stay and play with friend while Jared, Kaeden and myself went over by Juction to ride for the day. It was sunny and warm (around 35 degrees). We had a blast, however I am not so sure about the bundling up part. Kaeden is so much like his father, anything outdoors is awesome!!!!!
Jared talked his mom into letting us borrow the snow mobiles for the winter, so after a week of working to get them start, they haven't been used for awhile, we were ready to try them out. Unfortunatly the red one did not want to start. So me and the kids rode the green one around while Jared worked on the other one. It was snowing and cold but we had fun. He did get the red one started and we went for a short ride before dark.
I can't believe my baby is 5 years old. She got this Awesome Princess bike. She got to have a party later that week which was a blast for her. 10 little princesses in one house, wow was that fun!!! She got a lot of lip gloss and body glitter, in which she has to put on each day before school. Yikes am I in for it or what.
Here they all are dressed up and ready to go. We went to the truck or treat at Juliann and Melissa's ward. Lots of candy in little time. The only problem is that the kids aren't tired. Taesi and Taylynn having a little snack. After we hit all the cars they were ready for more. So we went to a few house and got way to much candy. We did eventually tire them out and they all slept great that night. Brandon and Kaeden waiting to go to the houses.
Jared and I have been married for 13 years. We met at SUU back in fall of 1992. My how time flies when you are with the one you love!! After serving missions we where married in the spring of 1996. We started riding mototcyles that year with a 1970 honda and have upgraded a few times since then. Our together trips have slowed down since Kaeden came to the family, but we still enjoy every minute we can get on the bike. We have made sure that the kids love riding as much as we do. For Kaeden there is nothing better than a motorcycle ride with his dad. Taesi prefers the 4-wheeler, close enough right? We love to go camping, boating, and four-wheeling and now that Kaeden is in 1st grade and we can't leave as often as we want to so we play when we can.
Kaeden loves all that is outdoors, yes that's my boy on the kneeboard at Yuba Lake
Taesi
Taesi love everything that is princess. She loves dress-ups, barbies, and babies especially when they are real.
Silly Sayings by My Silly Kids
We were having family home evening and talking about the Gift of the Holy Ghost. When I asked Kaeden how we feel when the Holy Ghost is prompting us, he told me to "ask him again after he is baptized."
We were in Overton at Grandma's house Kaeden was still a sleep and Taesi has just woke up. She look and him and said only as Taesi could, "Ahh he is so cute when he's asleep."
In Sept Jared went on a 2 week Motorcycle trip. The morning that he left Taesi can into the kitchen and told me to smell a pillow, which I did. She said that "the pillow smell like Dad and she was just going to smell if for a while."
When Kaeden found out who is 2nd grade teacher was the one he was hoping to get he said" Success is Mine" I think he was very excited.
Kaeden and Taesi were playing at a friends house while I got a perm. When I pick them up Kaeden looked at me and asked if I go struck be lightening. Luckily my hair has relaxed a bit.
Kaeden was sick and got to stay home from church by himself, He ask me if I could stay until 8pm, and told Jared when he called to check on him that "He could get used to staying home by himself." I am not so sure I like this independant streak.
We were in the car picking Kaeden up for school, Taesi got out of her seat belt and was leaning in the front seat. I tapped her head and told her to get back in her car seat. She start sobbing and told me "her King doesn't like it when people are mean to his princess." I am sure you can guess who her king is and of course sheis the princess. I told her that her king wants here to be safe and wear her seat belt, now she does.
After coming home from Cedar City, it was quite late, we told the kids it was time for bed and Kaeden said, "I won't go to sleep until I get my dignity back." Thanks spongebob
Melissa had Taesi and Collin at walmart on 12/12/08, when Taesi said, "you'll never take my dignity." Thanks again Spongebob
Taesi was looking at her pictures that we got taken in Novemeber for her birthday, my princess, said "I look so pretty, I just love me." 12/4/08
Just ask Taesi and she will tell you who is the king. It's her dad and she of course is the princess. 11/1/08
Kaeden missed school in October for a destist appt. The next day he had homework ( more than just his ususal book to read) It took him 15 minuted instead of 5 minute to finish. He said that he will never miss another day of school again!! 11/1/08
