Crazy 8's

Our little girl is growing up and competed in her first level 5 meet this weekend. Unfortunately, she is not grown up quite enough because there were not enough 7 year olds competing so she competed in the 8 year old age group. She had a goal to get 8's on each event and accomplished this pretty easily on floor and beam.

Beam 8.85

Floor 8.75
She was the highest score from her team on these 2 events in her level so we got to go back the next night and watch her compete again which her 3 brothers were so excited about. Another $20.00 to get in and VERY poor viewing with lots of distractions, but gave her some good experience and she loved it, good enough. Gym Plus took 3rd in the team challenge, great job girls!the waiting...

Monroe posing with her big sister Lexi, who offered lots of words of encouragement and was a great cheerleader for the meet.

Toilet Talk

Any ideas if your 1 yr old threw your phone in the toilet?

Oh Christmas Tree!

Let the decorating and undecorating begin. I am so in love with the smell of a real tree walking in the door and still sportin the shatterproof ornaments from Crocker 4 yrs back:)

Family Pictures Take 1 & 2

JP braved the cold windy weather last Sat morning and came out to the farm to get some family pics while Aimee and Randy were in town. What a task, she did awesome. She actually got some great ones with everyone looking and smiling, but the above picture has to be my favorite. All of the adults but one is not looking at the camera, cracks me up.

We got out great great grandpas rusted out stationary bike and the kiddos did great, thank you Jen!

Cattle Call

The kiddos loved piling in and feeding the cows with Grandpa, Jude preferred to watch from the sunroof, the baby calves were the cutest!

I'm Thankful

Thanksgiving at the Farm

for this guy, my best eater who had a complete meltdown by the end of the night and was rolling around on the floor because his d he wrote for his name on his cup didn't look good.
for Kingston, who yes does eat solids, mashed of course! He had taters coming out of his ears.
for my oldest, most laid back silly Xman, love those grassed stained knees
