the Amazing Gunner

Gunner started pulling himself up onto everything. After his nap I came in and found him like this! Crazy kid!

Schnepf Farms

Last week we went to Schnepf Farms with the YM/YW in our ward. It was so much fun. Everyone had a great time. Although you can see from some of the pictures how much dust was in the air, so we all came home with sniffles and scratchy throats. But still really fun. Maddi playing in the band with the YW
Right before we got on the carousel I was handing Gunner to Adam and with a huge smile, Gunner said "Da Da" Adam was so proud.

The girls racing, as soon as they saw these races, this was the first thing they wanted to do.

Feeding the Animals

Racing with Dad

Funny Story, We went on the train ride with all our friends. Although the ride get's a little SPOOKY after 6:30. The girls were good sports until a witch came right up to Maddi and said, "This one looks juicy" Maddi started to back up and Adam grabbed her, then Maddi flipped thinking it was the witch and almost jumped off the train. Adam had to grab her harder to keep her from doing so. I've never seen Maddi so scared, we all got a good laugh when it was over. Just as the train was pulling in we saw our cousins and so the girls wanted to ride with them. I was impressed that they wanted to go again. But they did. Maddi burried her face in the people in front of us till it was over.

Family Reunion

I am so sad that I didn't get better pictures of this! This was at our family reunion, and they did water balloon launching. Maddi stepped right up to the plate.
Right after Maddi's launch! The guys out catching the balloons! Good Luck!

We are so lucky to have such an awesome family!

MORE CABIN

A FEW more Cabin pictures, I know I post a billion things about the cabin, but it is a favorite place. And now it is closed for 6 months, so you are free of cabin posts until then.

This is Adam and my cousin Ty... I think they were seperated at birth. Actually we concluded that they couldn't have been brothers because no mother deserved that. But they are two peas in a pod. The two think and do exactly alike. They both have the same passions, and seem to follow in eachother's footsteps. According to them everything is Fast and Faster. Crazy and Crazier!

Pappa the 4X4

This video is of the kids playing "I had a little pumpkin" with Grandma. Preston couldn't wait for his turn, and finally when he got it he wasn't going to give it up so quickly!

What to do with NEW TIRES!

FIRST THING YOU SHOULD DO WHEN YOU GET NEW TIRES

1. CAKE the Car in Mud while spinning donughts with the 3 children in the car. The baby hasn't gotten whiplash yet, at 6 months, it's about time to break him in, don't you think??

2. BEND THE BAR THAT HOLDS THE STEP RAILS, SO YOUR WIFE CAN'T Step into the CAR without flying backwards, or practicing her high jump skills.

3. Scratch the front of the Car up, and then lie about it, so wife won't be too Mad
4. Give the car a QUICK RINSE when WIFE yells at You so she won't be upset that her pants get muddy everytime that she gets in the FAMILY VEHICLE
OH ADAM, How I love you, let me count the ways!

KABUKI

We spent the first few nights up at the cabin just our family. Then My family came up with friends and cousins. They got up at dinner time so we went out to this somewhat new teppanyaki place called Kabuki. Compared to my favorite resturaunt AH-So... it was awful, overpriced and really not authentic at all. Pretty pittiful! But still fun. I've tried over 7 teppanyaki places including BeniHana... nothing is quite as good as AH-So.

I'm throwing in a few of my HOT n Single Cousins for the Ladies. Not that they need any help getting girls, girls are usually falling all over them. But just for fun.

PIKE @ Mogollon Rim

This past week we went up to the cabin for our fall break and took a little "pike". This is the same hike my mom used to take us on every time we went to the cabin to try and wear us out for the drive home. It was gorgeous, but really windy and a little chilly! Super fun though!

I know Adam never thought he'd be wearing two pink backpacks! Way to take it like a man hun!
