Stunt Boys

Corbin discovered that the mound at the baseball field across the street is the perfect jumping hill.

Mason can't wait to get his training wheels taken off so he can do jumps like Corbin.

Happy Halloween!

The boys did such a great job carving their pumpkins this year! I love how their little tongues poke out when they're concentrating!

Corbin traced his and did most of the carving all by himself!

We had fun at Gardener Village with Kim, Boston, and Emilee.

The First Snow!

I should have known it was going to snow, because the birds were going crazy outside! They were covering our yard, the pasture and house behind us, our neighbors yard, and all the houses around us. I've never seen so many birds in my life!

It was perfect - there was a blizzard all day, then it stopped and warmed up for us to play in it that afternoon. The snow was melting fast, so Corbin and his best friend Ashton got shovels and made paths to ride the sleds down. They even build jumps to go off!

Notch Peak

Notch Peak is the biggest cliff in North America, 3000 ft high. It's in the middle of nowhere- there was nothing as far as we could see!

This is Corbin's favorite picture. He really wants a motorcycle for Christmas!

While Ben fixed a flat tire on the way home, the boys entertained themselves by jumping off a big mountain of gravel.

As we were packing up, Ben found a scorpion under his trailor!

Corbin spends most of his time building ramps to jump in the back yard. I'm so glad Scott knew to leave dirt and hills for the boys to play on, because the neighborhood boys (young and old) love it!


Scott can keep up pretty well!


Corbin loves it when his Dad rides bikes with him.



Baby Emilee is here! It was fun to go to the hospital with Kim and hear those first baby cries. The doctor commented that she didn't cry like a newborn, that was a three month old cry!



Corbin loved to sit and hold her, and look at her tiny hands and feet.


Grandma Nina came into town and we did lot of fun things. I'm amazed that Kim was able to keep up with everything so soon!


The boys always have so much fun with Boston!

We've let another fun couple of months slip by without posting any pictures, so here's a quick recap of what we've been up to!

My big kindergartener! Corbin and his best friend Ashton have been having a great time being in the same class. Corbin's favorite thing about school is recess, where he loves to play soccer.


Corbin loved riding his bike through the forest and over streams to get to China Lake on our latest camping trip.

We had a trauma with Belle this trip, when she got a porcupine to the face! They were through her nose and the roof of her mouth. Luckily she was able to make it the few miles back to camp, and we were able to find a vet in town. So far she's had a skunk and a porcupine...I don't want to know what's next!

Corbin and I were looking all over for Mason and couldn't find him anywhere! I was about to start calling the neighbors, when Corbin found him under his bed, sound asleep!

We had a nice visit in Oregon at the end of July. We enjoyed visiting the beach in Tillamook, and swimming at Kali's house, among many other adventures.

It was a bit cold and windy on the beach, but we still had a great time.

Corbin had fun finding all the dried out crabs on the beach.

Mason was completely worn out! We went to the cheese factory after the beach, and he slept through the tour and most of lunch.

Corbin is such a dare devil!

Back home, we had a picnic with Kim and Brett and Grandpa Brent in the canyon. The boys had fun getting dirty, as usual!

We had a nice 4th of July with Scott's parents. After the parade we went to the park to watch fireworks.
