Home Sweet Home

At last! Pictures of our house!



The first room you see to the right when you walk in.  
I want to eventually make it a cozy reading room.

The view straight ahead when you walk in the house.


A little office area in-between the kitchen and living room. I love it.




 I LOVE the mudroom and laundry area


Morgan's room

Kayden and Tate's room. Yes, it's pink.  I still have lots of work to do on the kid's rooms. 

Master bedroom



Basement
The far door on the left goes to a storage room and the room on the right is a bedroom that will be my craft room.

Basement guest bedroom and bathroom

We have room for toys to stay out and not be in our way!!! It's so nice!


 Our awesome backyard

with a fire pit. We have yet to try it out but I think it'll be fun.

We LOVE our house.  It's so nice to have so much room both inside and out!

More than a year...

It's been more than a year since I posted and so much has happened.  I'll just summarize in pictures then maybe do more detailed posts later.

Easter 2011

Kidz Dig Rigz 2011
An event a local hospital puts on every year where they gather tons of trucks, tractors, police cars, fire engines...any kind of rig you can imagine and let the kids climb and explore it all.  It's really fun.

We went to St. George in June 2011 with a bunch of Tyler's family, then Grandma was nice enough to take the kids home with her so we could stay and play for a few days

Zion National Park

Back in northern Utah we went to Union Station

Random picture of Morgan ready for a night out on the town 

We got to ride Thomas the Tank Engine.

Kayden LOVED it.

Here we are back in Utah again.

Morgan turned 2!

My little sister got married

Tyler's little sister got married

We went on a cruise to Alaska

where we zip lined 

and saw glaciers....among other things.  It was such an awesome cruise!!!

Tyler's brother got married

We picked our own pumpkins

and carved them.

Dr. Kayden

Minnie Mouse Morgan

Kayden and Grandpa made up a new game called 'trap'.  The kids all run around and Grandpa tries to trap them when they run passed him.  It's hilarious.  Kayden is obsessed with playing 'trap' now.

Kayden was a wise man for the Joy School nativity.

Christmas 2011


 Kayden turns 4!! January 22, 2012

Tate is born one month later on February 22, 2012.

The older kids loved him from day one.  They are so sweet with him.

Tyler did a 3 day hike through the Grand Gulch with my brothers, sister and brother-in-law.

Shersti gave Morgan her very first haircut!

Tyler turned 30!!! And Kirt (Shersti's hubby) turned 23.  They shared a party.

Hey look! A cute baby!!

Wow.  We had such an eventful year.  And I skipped over sooooooo much!!  But those are the highlights of the last year!!
