First Snow Fall and Hunting

Dan and I got to sneak away and get a hunt in here in Vancouver! Had tons of fun and that is my duck I am going to get put up on the wall!!

LAZY DOG DAYS!!! Googles is enjoying Dawsyn's couch and Avery is enjoying our couch!! :)

We had a blast with the first snow fall that caught us by suprise and dumped huge flacks that added up to about 4 inches of snow! Dakota and Dawsyn made a snow duck instead of a snowman!! Very cute

More pics!!

Some great family pictures!! Thanks Emily for taking them..

Kids and Dogs

Here are a few pictures of the kids and the dogs!! We have had tons of fun these past few weeks with Avery. Dawsyn and Avery have a love hate relationship! Very funny to watch at times!! Dawsyn loves to lay with her and treat her like a baby, while Avery likes to bite her and try and play with her like she is a dog!

Enjoying the family Thanksgiving weekend!!

Sharing time with Mommy

Dakota had a rash and we found out that she is allergic to Amoxicillian!! Poor girl!! it is clearing up and she will look normal soon!! LOL

Puppy and Birthday

On Friday Grandma finally brought our new puppy Avrey to our house and to say that the kids were excited would be an understatment! She is a great dog already going outside to go potty and does good at night so far I should say!! LOL We do love her and just look at that face how could you not love her!

Here are a few pictures from Devon's birthday it was great fun!! BUT I am so glad that our house is back to normal!!

Halloween 2009

Dawsyn sporting a Fro!! Fhe is so silly! And Dan trying to sport it but it's just not as cute as Dawsyn!

The kids carving Pumpkins for Halloween! They had fun but Dawsyn kept saying how gross and wrong this is!

Halloween 2009

We had a great Halloween!! Thanks to all the friends that came over to spend the evening with us! The kids got a lot of candy but it seems that there were a few less houses to Trick or Treat at this year! We had good weather for the evening not super cold and NO rain!!! We then woke up to a lot of fog and very cold but that is a great exchange for the good evening weather.

Dawsyn was a brave girl for the most part! She was a very cute witch and loved the candy from door to door until a guy opened the door wearing a mask and wig she FREAKED!!! She came running back at me saying not that house Mommy not that house! So every house after that she hung back to make sure that the person opening the door was just a regular person as she says!! It was really cute! I was so happy that she went out this year and she is already looking forward to next year!

Dakota was a Spider Witch, Dawsyn was the Good Witch and Devon was a Star Wars Guy

We had a great group of kids this year! 3 lady bugs, a Dinosaur, 2 witches, Tiger, Transformer, a Bee and a scarey guy!

Deer Hunting 2009

Here are a few pictures of deer hunting a few weeks ago! Some of these are a little gross for some people so sorry if this offends you! We had a great time and in both weekends 5 out of 6 people had there deer!! Gret job guys!!!

Here are a few pictures of the scenery where we were hunting in Lyle, WA. Beautiful but very steep in parts for hicking!! Can't wait until next year!!

Our Puppy Avery

This is our new puppy Avery she is 6 weeks old and we can't wait to get her in 2 weeks!! She is very sweet and cuddley!

She is very playful with Belle and was looking to see if she was her Mom! LOL

Shooting, Canning & Windy!

This is Dakota at field day for hunters safety class! The got to shoot 5 types of guns and a bow, Dakota did very well even though she was a little scared!

This is Devon at the field day also! He was so excited to shoot everything!

Amber and I tried to do some canning this year of tomatos and it turned out better then expected!! LOL Very messy but well worth it! WE ended up with 25 jars of tomatos and we have not tried them yet but I am not worried!! I THINK!!

Today the wind is blowing so hard that it has blown garbage day everywhere! YUCK!! Also this is a picture of the house behind us where their tree was blown over roots and all very crazy! atleast it didn't land on the fence or their house!
