Family Portrait Oh No!!!

We decided to take some family pictures at the beach which I am planning on using for Christmas cards. After ALOT of complaining from my children we finally managed to get a few taken but it was crazy. Nobody would sit still or stay in one place and the sun was in our face. Where were you BECKY!!! We needed our photographer. Oh Well that is as good as it's gonna get this year. I will be getting cards out hopefully in the next couple of weeks, but these are a few other's.

I'm Obsessed!

Ok so yes I am obsessed with taking pictures of my daughter even though I haven't really had any professional ones taken. I know I need to take more of my other kids too, but I usually am shooting these when they are not home. Anyway I just wanted to update my blog so I wasn't still on Halloween.

Halloween Fun!

Halloween night was a little crazy. I got to do it all myself again because Daryl was on the Big Island and couldn't get an early flight home. We went to the trunk or treat at 6:00 which hardly had anyone there. When we were ready to leave my car wouldn't start so I had to find jumper cables and then it almost still wouldn't start. Daryl got back about that time and came to the church and helped us get it started. Then we went home and I took the kids trick or treating for a bit and then Daryl took the older 3 to a haunted house at the school behind our house, while I got Kylyn ready for bed. Another lonely Halloween, but thank goodness it's over.

Yea New Pictures Finally

Ok, Well it has been a while, but my camera is weird and broke and only works when and if it wants to so most of my pics are on my phone which I haven't yet figured out how to download to my computer. On top of that Daryl is on the Big Island working every week and takes his camera with him. Anyway my camera grabbed a few pics before it went fuzzy again. I started Kylyn on cereal a couple weeks ago but she really just wants the spoon. On Oct 1 she learned to roll from back to front but hasn't quite mastered the other way yet. She then scoots away from her toys and crys. She is a horrible napper but is still always happy. She also is now starting to sit on her own a little and she loves her toes.

Jordyn's Hair Cut

Jordyn has been begging me to cut her hair for a long time, so I finally gave in and let her get it done. It was hard to see her cut it cause I liked it long even though I could never get her to comb it or do it nice. It saves me time now though.

Austen's Arrow of Light

On Tuesday the 23rd it was Austen's last pack meeting and he recieved his Arrow of Light. He and three other boys crossed over into boy scouts. He has been working pretty hard to get it. We are very proud of him.

Happy Siblings!! For the Moment

Not much happening lately. On Sunday the kids managed to stay dressed after church so I took some pics of them together. I don't get many of those. We are all doing great. Kylyn will be 4 months in a week and I am sure she is pushing 15 pounds or more. She has found her voice and loves to hear it. One of these days I'll figure out how to put some video on here.

I finally did your slide show of Kylyn. I cannot believe how big she has gotten since I took these pictures. I miss you. Love ya Becky

Girl after her Daddy's heart!!!!!

On Sunday before church Daryl was watching the race and holding Kylyn. She was watching too! It was too cute so I had to get a picture. She is getting so fun. She giggles alot and sings(or coos) when I sing to her. I wish you all could see her. She is as chunky as ever but cute right along with it, call me bias if you want...

Austen's Birthday

Austen turned 11 on Friday. He wanted to go to Farrell's for our family party so we went. The food is gross but the ice cream is good. Then Saturday he had a couple friends come over for pizza and ice cream cake and then Daryl took them to play mini golf. It was supposed to be glow in the dark golf, but wouldn't you know they weren't doing it that night, but I think they still had fun even though it is nothing compared to mini golf courses back home.

Just More Pics and Life

I have so many pictures that I want you all to see but I don't think this blog will hold them all and it will take forever so I will just post a few more.

We are all doing well, Daryl is finally home from Kwajalien. He takes his RCDD exam on Saturday so he needs all of your prayers to pass it. If he does then maybe we can come home sooner than next summer.

The kids were out of school yesterday and today and only have half a day tomorrow! We had a stake family fun fest yesterday that was fun, but now they are just bored again and I can't wait til tomorrow.

Austen turns 11 on Friday and gets to have a Big birthday, since last year we were new and he had no friends. He chose some friends to go play Cosmic mini golf and pizza and movies and ice cream cake, so I will post pictures of that next week. Jordyn finally lost her Nanny McPhee tooth and Bransen fell off the wall and skinned up his nose just in time for school pics on Thursday!! Anyway, time to feed the baby. More to come later

First Day of School

This was the first day of school for Austen and Jordyn. Bransen had 3 first days of school so we took pictures of him for each day he went (one wouldn't upload). There is one with him and the kids that is his Official first day even though it was a Friday, but Daryl has it on his camera so I will put in on when he gets back from Kwajalein. They all seem to be doing good in school. Although Bransen has already gotten in trouble for pinching a girl and standing on a chair. I'm not sure any teacher is ready for him though.... Homework is a bear already but we are managing.
