Happy Mother's Day

So we have been looking for a new SUV for quite some time, but have had no luck!!! Or so I thought. Last night Nathan and I went to drop off a trailer at the store, when we got there I just sat in the car waiting for Nate to unload the trailer. When he got back into the car he just sat there for a min, and I was like what are you doing? Then he was like so Happy Mothers Day, and I was like what is he talking about, I began looking around, and then right in front of me was our new car!! I totally was taken be surprise. I had no idea that he had been talking to a dealer in AZ, this last week, and had this Nissan Armada shipped all the way here to ID!! I was so excited, and can't wait to see if he can top this one next year. (JK)

We also spoke to my younger brother Miles today who is on his mission in CA. It was so nice to hear his voice. 

But anyway.....

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!!!

What A Beautiful Area

I remember being in high school and thinking to myself, I can't wait to get out of Twin Falls!! Now that I am grown and am still here in Twin Falls I have realized that I have taken this area for granted. I love this area. I love going jogging on the canyon, and just enjoying all of the great scenery here. Today we had so much fun, we down to the Falls and had a picnic with the Olsens. The Falls have the most water running over them right now that I can ever remember. You can not even see the bottom, where the water hits the lake, because there is so much mist! I am so grateful that I live in such a beautiful area.

Easter

On Friday evening we went to Tyler and Tanille's house to color eggs. Jake just wanted to eat them, but he got a few colored. We all had fun watching Jace, he was so excited to see all the colored eggs!!

Easter was a fun day, we woke up early to find the Easter Bunny had left Jake a basket and an outfit!! He was so excited. Jake just loved the bunny, we took him to the mall to get his pictures, and he just laughed and giggled the whole time. After church we all went to Gooding to spend the day with Grandpa and Grandma Thompson. We had a great dinner, and then had an Easter egg hunt with lottery tickets for the adults, I think we won like six bucks!! After Gooding we went to visit Grandma and Grandpa Bean. They had an Easter egg hunt for Jake and Owen, Jake had fun watching Owen find all the eggs. Owen was such a good sharer, he let Jake hold three of his eggs!! It was a fun Easter Sunday!

Yankee vs. Red Sox

This last Thanksgiving we went to visit Nathan's Grandpa in Lake Havasu. This was the first time Jake had met his Great grandpa!! While we were there Grandpa Tritten gave Jake a gift, a Red Sox ball, which was signed by all the players on the 1955 Red Sox Team. Jake was so excited. Nathan thought that it would be funny to dress Jake in his New York Yankee outfit, which he got while he was in NY for work, and take pictures with his new ball.

This is for Aaron and Sarah!- Nathan

Family Pictures -HELP-

We went and took some family picures taken on Saturday, and I wanted some opinions. We want to hang a family picture over our fire place and we need help deciding which one we like.

I have also uploaded the pictures from the last post, because the others would not open into the larger picture window.

You should be able to click into these now!!

Jake's Six month pictures

Jake is six months, well actually six and a half, but we went down to the canyon to take some fun pictures! He enjoyed being outside in the nice weather.

He can not wait to go waterskiing and tubing this summer, to bad it was too cold today!!

This is the first time Jake has been in the grass he loved it, he will really have fun when it is soft and green.

Jake is a future rock climber, what a brave man. It may look like he is high, but really he is not and there is someone very close making sure he does not fall. No worries!!

Jake's First Tooth

Jake got his first tooth the 15th of February. He loves brushing his teeth, and is biting everything!! Teething is definately hard, but Jake is doing pretty good. He hasn't had a fever or anything, but his sleeping habits have become much worse. We are excited about his teeth, and can't wait for another!
