Merry Christmas

I hope everyone has had a wonderful Christmas. We have had a very enjoyable Christmas, with lots of snow. The kids were so excited for Santa to come, that on Christmas eve, they had to give me the run down on what needed to be done before they climbed into bed.
Here are some pictures from Christmas morning.
Enjoy.

Thanksgiving

We had a very enjoyable Thanksgiving. The boy's and I were able to travle down to Phoinex, AZ, with my parents, to visit with my sister Jenn.

The car ride was long but we kept the boy's entertained with movies and video games.

The boy's had soo much fun that they didn't want to leave. In fact the day before we left Tyson was told that we were leaving in a day, poor boy he broke down crying "But I want to stay at Aunt Jenn's until Christmas." and he was still crying when it was time to leave. Sorry Jenn my kids Love you!!!

While there we took the kids on a Hike to the Wind Caves, and they all did really well.

Here are some pictures from our hike.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Where's the Pot of Gold??

After a wonderful afternoon of rain, Daghen was surprised, when he looked out the window and saw a Beautiful rainbow. He ran around the house yelling, Mom, a rainbow, a rainbow, hurry come see.

And to my surprise there was not only one rainbow but two.

(kind of hard to see both)

Daghen still in his euphoric state exclaimed "we need to go to the end of the rainbow where a little guy will give us his gold!!"
To his dismay there is no Gold.
We are all a little disappointed at the Smith house.

Day at the Rodeo

Today, we attended my parents ward Rodeo. The boy's and I had a wonderful time. They had lots of games and activities for the kids and even for the adults.
The boys had cotton candy and snow cones, along with the candy and donuts.

The boy's were even able to do a little Mutton Bustin' as well. Boy did they enjoy the ride even though the ride barley lasted long enough for mom to snap a picture for the landing, and even Ayden got to ride but luckily the men running the show knew to hold on to the kid and let the sheep keep going, but he thought he was tough enough. They even did a little chicken chasing as well, but sorry to say none of my boy's were quite quick enough to snag one. All in all a good day. Even the missionaries had fun.

Tyson's 1st Day

Tyson's 1st day of Kindergarten is finally here. He is so excited to be in Mrs. Pulsipher's class (Daghen's old teacher).

We walked to school!! Even dad and our dog Rascal came along for the big day.

Here is Tyson waiting for the bell to ring.
Have a good day Tyson.

Back To School!!!!

Monday was Daghen's first day back to school. I was sooo excited. Tyson was a little bumbed because he doesn't start kinderarten until Sept. 2nd. But we will take pictures then also.
Daghen loves his teacher and so do I.

Casey started school this week also and has switched to working in the evenings and man has it put me in a spin. I guess I need to reevaluate my routine for when Casey is home so I can get things done around the house.

LOL.

Finally Updating

Things are going great with us. I'm just very bad about updating.
Hip Hip Hooray Casey got into the Weber State University Nursing School.
We are so happy to finally be getting on our way. We are also nervous for the semester to begin, antisipating the long hours and the challanging work load.
The kids are ready for summer to be over (at least mom is)Tyson is soo excited to go into Kindergarten this year, He keeps asking me "Is it Fall Yet"
Daghen thinks he is such hot stuff going into 2nd grade, and Ayden still is the cutest of the bunch but still driving Mom CRAZY!
