Halloween

Brigham decided he needed a cupcake. He grabbed one with his ninja fast hands and then he got to eat some before mom cleaned him up.




This is a picture of Ethan's costume for this year. Can you tell what he is?
He is The Last Airbender. I think his costume turned out great, thanks to Value Village. And the razor blade to his head.
Brynley wanted to be a bunny again this year. She practiced her hopping for weeks before Harroween. (that is how she says it, think asian accent)
I kind of didn't get the other kids in their costumes. Kinsey was Nancy Drew and looked just like her. And Brigham was a football carried around by his Football player Mom and Dad. I will have to dress him back up and get a picture of him. He sure looked cute. Ty and Brad didn't really dress up but still got lots of candy at the trunk or treat.

These are the cute pumpkin cupcakes Kinsey and I made out of her cupcake book. They were for a little Halloween Party we had for Brynley and Sandi. They turned out cute, I think.

We carved pumpkins this year and had a blast. Bradley and Tyler looked up some ideas on line and did great jobs carving theirs. Bradley is first, since you can't see his face in the picture.
Kinsey's was so cute with a bow in it's hair of course.
Tyler messed up on his teeth so he gave his pumpkin dentures. I think it turned out really good for messing up!!!
Brynley is smiling about as big as her pumpkin face. How cute is she!!
Ethan did his all by himself. He did such a great job. He is awesome too!
We had a fun Halloween and luckily it was somewhat warm--no snow, no wind, no rain. Can't be better than that.

Saskatoon Lake Park

One nice sunny afternoon we went on a drive to Saskatoon Lake Park. It was only about 15 minutes away and it was beautiful. We had a fun time throwing the football and goofing around on the play ground. We also picked a few Saskatoon's with plans to go back later and get more. But life got in the way and we never made it back before they all dried up. Oh well, there is always next year.

Life is Good!!!!

Brigham's Blessing

Brigham was blessed on July 4,2010. We had a great day together with Tim's family. We had a big get together and ate lots of taco's and taco salads with berry cake for dessert. We are so blessed to have Brigham in our family.

Brigham is 4 Weeks Old (almost)

Brigham is such sweet little guy!! He is so patient and peaceful. I couldn't have asked for a better baby. If he has one shortfall its that he doesn't sleep all that long at night. Luckily I have awesome kids that watch him while I sleep during the day. These are some random pictures of him for the past few weeks.

It's so cute when they go through the "o" stage.

I'm pretty sure this one was taken right after his daddy tooted!!

Check out his long hair--but more importantly check out the super cute blanket Auntie Wendy made him. It's my favorite!

The kids pretty much can't resist putting his hair into a mohawk.

My two sweet babies!!

Bryn is so sweet with him. She is very soft and loves to give him kisses.

He is just getting to the stage where he smiles back at you when you smile. We luckily caught this on film. He is so sweet!

Brigham Owen Moline

joined our family on

May 3, 2010

9lbs 1 oz

21 3/4 inches

This is him, just minutes after he was born. He was healthy and there were no complications with his birth. I was induced earlier that morning and went into labor a few hours later.


Tim loved this shot because he looked liked a little frog.

The proud daddy!! As you can see Brig is a good eater. He is always looking to suck on something.

I wanted to add this picture to show all of his hair! None of our kids have had much hair, so it was a surprise to see all of his.

All of the kids love to hold him!!

I don't have a picture with him and Brynley but she holds him and just kisses him over and over.

We have been so blessed to have all of the amazing kids that we do!!!!

Elk--No they're Moose!

This morning while eating breakfast, Blaze was whining at something outside. We told him to stop and Bradley looked outside and there were two female Elk outside!! I looked and said, no Brad, those are moose!!
They hung out for awhile and were eating the trees when Kinsey said, look mom, there are 2 more. Sure enough 2 males came follow those 2 females like lost puppies.

There was a big one with large antlers- and a younger one with much smaller antlers. But they all hung around for about 45 min. The kids were so excited and took tons of pictures. Needless to say school started late today. But what a fun sight to see in our own backyard.

After about 45 min. the females had gotten bored and left off into the farmers field next to us. And sure enough those two males followed after them. Isn't that how it always is!!
